Forgotten holiday

It makes me sad how Thanksgiving is the forgotten holiday for a lot of people. For so many it is just a day to eat lots, lay around, and prepare to shop on Friday. I am already tired of seeing the Christmas "stuff" around in the stores. Some places have had Christmas displays since before Halloween. I remember as a kid there was no signs of Christmas until after Thanksgiving was over. Thanksgiving was a true holiday with a distinct purpose. I plan on really looking back at the last year and giving thanks to God for all of the blessings he has given me. There are so many! To me that is what Thanksgiving is all about.
