Welcome

This is my first musings of the day and this blog. I wonder what happen to the national feast day known as Thanksgiving. All day today, as I shop, the stores were decked out with Christmas cheer of buy, buy, buy. OK! I like Christmas; but, what we celebrate is no where near the historical and church calendar of Christmas. Hello! Churches and people would celebrate Advent, a time of waiting, of expectation, of penance. Not the penance of Lent, but the penance of remembering. Remembering those less fortunate. Christmas has turned into the bacchaus feast of the winter solstice. Ok! Everyone--go ahead and celebrate the winter solstice but don't call it Christmas. Can we get Thanksgiving back, a feast that can unite us as a nation and help to heal families. Let us enjoy Thanksgiving instead of a footnote to the biggening of the great shopping season known as the holiday gift-giving me season. If you agree with me pass this on. It is time we reclaim our cycle of holidays instead of Hallothamas Time. By the way Happy Thanksgiving to everyone in the blogosphere.
