Remember what this holiday is for. We give thanks for everything God has blessed us with, starting back with the Pilgrims who came in search of freedom to worship Him and found our great country. For the food and resources that we take for granted and waste. For the family we have to share today with. Thankful for all the little things, even if life is hard right now, being appreciative of something as simple as the sunshine, or the air you breath, or a bird singing in the tree, can make all the difference.
Sure, even I love a great deal, but we as society have lost the meaning of the holidays and commercialized them. I for one will not be spending this day I get with my family and all the food I could possibly eat camping out in front of a store for a half off TV or a toy. A good deal just isn't worth that to me.
So please, enjoy today and your family and truly be thankful for what you have, there are so many who have to do without most, if not everything that you take for granted. Leave Black Friday to Friday.
HAPPY TURKEY DAY!
