November 22 will be Thanksgiving Day this year and it is celebrated within the United States as a National holiday annually on the fourth Thursday in November.
It incorporates both religious and secular aspects - being both a harvest festival and a festival of family.
The origins of Thanksgiving Day are believed to lie in a first harvest celebration held in Plymouth, Massachusetts in 1621.
Insomnia is the term used to describe interference with normal sleep patterns. Symptoms of insomnia include delays in falling asleep, waking during the night but eventually going back to sleep, or waking very early in the morning before the sleep cycle has been completed.
If you can't sleep, then get up and do something instead of lying there worrying. It's the worry that gets you, not the lack of sleep. ~ Dale Carnegie ~
You may find as you age that your ability to live longer is rewarded with insomnia. It does not seem fair that you worked so very hard to stay healthy and fit, and in return you are much more likely to suffer sleepless nights as you grow older.
But when you look at it from a purely physical point of view, the aging / insomnia relationship makes a lot of sense.
