Do not wish me a Merry Christmas before Thanksgiving!
I don’t want to hear Christmas songs. I don’t want “pre-Holiday sales.” I don’t want fat people ringing bells outside of every store wishing me “Happy Holidays.”
Thanksgiving has been given the short shrift by America, less attention has been paid to it over the last one hundred years. Why? Because it’s not easily marketed. There is no mayflower and pilgrims light up scene like that of the Christmas nativity, no trees strung with turkey lights. More importantly, there is no “thanksgiving” presents.
Christmas is, indeed, the most wonderful time of the year, but not because of what you receive as a gift. Let me resay that. Christmas is the most wonderful time of the year because of a gift you received over 2000 years ago.
Thanksgiving has come to mean Football games and commercials for “Black Friday” sales.
Our country was founded because the pilgrims wanted religious freedoms. Today, people want an app for their religion.
History is being rewritten and whitewashed by Americans who have no idea what history means. Thanksgiving is not about simply one day. We should be thankful on Thanksgiving, but we should be thankful daily. But that is something too difficult for the typical American to understand. They are thankful only when the government tells them when to be thankful and who to be thankful to.
God bless America and America bless God.
