A British international student is staying with us the week of Thanksgiving on his break. He and my son met when my son was studying abroad last spring. We love hearing his accent and phrases he uses. The vocabulary sounds so much more proper and intellectual than ours!
Hearing a few stories about his life at dinner last evening gave me a different perspective. Americans aren't the only ones with clutter, but we do seem to have more accumulated stuff than many in the world. I'm assuming it's because we are one of the wealthiest countries. As we celebrate Thanksgiving, let's be thankful for our lifestyle and for the ability to help others with our stuff that we declutter and our money.
