Normally all my fathers family members can attend and I get to catch up with my Canadian cousins and brother who lives in Boston.

Oftentimes in literature, using magic is portrayed in a way that results in conflict. In the play, A Midsummer Night’s Dream, Shakespeare uses magic to create dissension between the characters. For instance, magic was used in a love spell, which later strained the relationship between Lysander and Hermia, created tension within Helena’s and Hermia’s friendship, and catalyzed Titania’s love for Bottom. Initially, Lysander and Hermia both love each other, but Lysander is put under a magical spell which causes him to fall in love with Helena. Because of this, Hermia and Lysander begin to feud and tarnish their relationship.

This is heavily discussed in elementary schools. As a child I remember my teacher suggesting that at dinner we should go around the table and have each family member say something that they are thankful for.
As studied by Janet Siskind, the American Thanksgiving celebration is actually a very detailed ritual that contains many symbols. Similar to other rituals, the holiday reinforces certain social structures and “…reaffirms values and assumptions about cultural and social unity, about identity and history, about inclusion and exclusion” (168). The Thanksgiving ritual is centered around a return home, as people traveled from their urban homes back to their rural home to meet with their larger family. As a result, “the household became the site of ritual performance…” (175). The goal of the Thanksgiving ritual was to reaffirm the family and renew traditional ties, especially as more people had started moving into the cities around the time that the holiday became popular in the United States (176).
