I never like it when anything that has to do with Christmas comes out before Thanksgiving. I am talking mostly about music and decorations. Cant American’s just enjoy one holiday at a time? I don’t even like the idea of Thanksgiving or Christmas, I know that sounds bad but that’s because neither holiday even made sense to me. Thanksgiving is built around us appreciating a nation of people after we almost killed all of them. It’s like trying to say sorry when you did something really bad that can’t be made whole again so we decide to make a holiday in their honor. No wonder Native Americans protest every year in Plymouth (thanks Cope). It was a way to unite a group of people who trampled over another. I know it has taken on a new meaning since that time but I feel it is important to remember what we have done to get there.
As far as decorations go, I will make an exception for this decoration. I am not even a huge slayer fan, I prefer a different kind of music (not one that involves heavy screaming) but I still can listen to them. I just think this person has balls to put this up and someone with that much balls gets an A+ in my book.
I also want to include what I am most thankful for, that’s kind of the new meaning right? I am extremely thankful for my family and close friends. A lot of people don’t realize how lucky they are to have great friends if they are fortunate to have them. I am also thankful for the opportunity to go to college and pursue a degree, it is an opportunity not many people get. Lastly I am very thankful for my health and the ability to be alive for another year.
I wish everyone a very happy and safe thanksgiving, and don’t forget to think about what is really important to you in your life and cherish it.
