So who wants to know what really makes me angry around this time of year. Stores that put up products for christmas BEFORE IT IS EVEN HALLOWEEN! And you know what else makes me mad? How much we have gotten away from the true meaning of these holidays such as thanksgiving and christmas. Thanksgiving is about being together with people you love and you are supposed to enjoy it, and give thanks that you have such wonderful things in your life. If you start to see it as "I get lots of food but i have to endure these people first." THEN YOU ARE GOING ABOUT IT ALL WRONG! And as for Christmas, it isn't about who gets the coolest gadgets or who has the most lights. It is about being together, and i have trouble with this too i will admit it. Go into it without expecting too many lights or bows or expensive gadgets. Because if that is how you view christmas then i feel sorry for you. Let's all take a lesson from Charles Schulz, christmas doesn't have to be pretty but it should be beautiful. I know this seems like a bit early to do this sort of thing but i just wanted it to be said.
"Christmas doesn't have to be pretty, but it should be beautiful." Well said, son. Well said.
