Pass the Gravy, please... Happy Thanksgiving!

I figured that if I have something to be thankful for, then this life is worth it. Thanksgiving is one of my favorite holidays, because for me it has a more universal value, not much commercialism, and not overly religious. Even those who don't pray to a supreme being can express thanks to those who make our lives better. That's more practical and beneficial. As a matter of fact, I'd rather see more of helping each other than devote untold energy, resources, and time to imaginary deities--as if they actually care about what happens in this remote corner of the universe. Let me take this opportunity to say a big thank you to those who have enriched my life. You are appreciated.



So, even if the turkey tastes like cardboard, and the family picks this day to showcase disfunctionality, and that you have to work on Friday, and that you must get in the middle of the night to catch those 4 am super sales, and that you can't retire before 2054, I hope you have a wonderful day. Make it an attitude to be happy and enjoy the moment. If you don't get enough this day, you can do it all over again for xmas soon!



Enjoy!
