the thanksgiving bandwagon

let's just be honest with each other.

i love thanksgiving.
i think it is the greatest holiday.
(yes, it beats out christmas)

i love the copious amounts of food
harvest food
pumpkins
grains

oh, it's perfect.

i also will never tire of the good ol'
"what are you thankful for?"

we spend too much time
complaining and whining and longing
over what we don't have.

finally! a day where we focus on what we do have.
alas, we have a lot.

let us celebrate that, shall we?
this weekend,
think about it.
list it.
share it.
remember it.
repeat it. every. damn. day.

Better to light one small candle than to curse the darkness.
