Hoping you all had a good Thanksgiving weekend! Mine was awesome mostly because I was able to both relax and be productive. I prefer it that way. It’s just the way I’m wired.
Thanksgiving itself though, is yet another holiday for me that has it’s issues. I’m not all that excited about celebrating the whole story of the Pilgrims coming to America, eating with the Native Americans… AND THEN CLAIMING EVERYTHING AND TAKING EVERYTHING FROM THEM.
I’m a load of fun aren’t I? The best way to explain how I feel about it, is through comedian Eddie Izzard. He’s genius in his American history story telling – love it! If you haven’t seen his full show, treat yourself.
But really, every holiday is what you make it. You sort of have to make each your own and celebrate in your own way. Thanksgiving is easy to just say it’s a holiday of giving thanks. Actually taking a moment to really savor all that is good in one’s life. I did that. And I hope you did too. If not, it’s never to late. You can start right now.
thanksgiving is good for food friends and family!!!
yes! i love thanksgiving too just for remembering to give thanks for everything in my life. :)
