“Now therefore I do recommend and assign Thursday the 26th day of November next to be devoted by the People of these States to the service of that great and glorious Being, who is the beneficent Author of all the good that was, that is, or that will be."
- President George Washington
Most men avoid affirmations because they feel fake — like looking in the mirror and lying to yourself. “I’m a badass!” when deep down, you don’t believe it.
September 17, 1787.
39 men with an average age of just 29, signed the U.S. Constitution — establishing liberty for generations.
In just 4,400 words, it laid the foundation for checks and balances, divided power, and protected individual freedoms, becoming the blueprint for countless governments worldwide.
Shortly after its signing, President Washington proclaimed November 26th, 1789, as the first National Day of Thanksgiving and Prayer.
He understood the significance of what had been achieved—a unified nation built on principles of freedom and self-governance. Washington’s proclamation called on the people to acknowledge this moment of national triumph and to express their gratitude for the opportunities and blessings it secured.
As we gather this Thanksgiving, let us remember the roots of this tradition and give thanks for the nation, the liberties we enjoy, and the principles that continue to guide us forward.
