It's Thanksgiving Day, and I have a lot to be thankful for. Though I can't help but feel holidays are like benchmarks of time passing. Work weeks just seem to blend into each other. Even the passing of seasons now go by in a blur. Holidays (and vacations) that annually remain, for me, the time of year that is memorable.
When I was a kid, it was all about the fun and the feast. The last few years I'm starting to recognize the importance of these times of year. As it's becoming more and more rare to have people all gather together, even if it's for a limited time, it makes these times even more special.
I guess one thing that makes me wonder and sad at the same time, is that perhaps eventually this won't exist anymore. Not that the holidays will disappear, it'll just be in a different form. I've never been good at dealing with change, and have a terrible habit of not just resisting, but rebelling against it. While I understand the inevitability of evolution, I can't understand why I can't accept it.
