4 ted talks to make you thankful this thanksgiving

We will be getting in the car tomorrow evening to drive to Chicago for the Thanksgiving holiday. The trip is roughly 4.5 hours from our house and we always pass some of the time listening to This American Life episodes. We haven't listened to that many TED talks but tomorrow I will be adding this playlist from TED all about thankfulness. The playlist features four talks. The first by Louis Schwartzberg is entitled Nature.Beauty.Gratiitude, the second by Laura Trice is all about remembering to say thank you, the third by Krista Tippett is called Reconnecting with Compassion and lastly the story of Ed Gavagan who conveys his thanks to the surgeons that saved his life after he was stabbed on a NYC street. Like I said I haven't listened to any of them yet but I thought I would share so that fellow travelers could enjoy as well.
