Holidays
I'm usually one to hate certain holidays because the manufactured moods actually get in the way, to me, of what the holiday is actually supposed to be about. It's a big battle sometimes to attach to what is actually supposed to be genuine when there is all this pressure to feel that exact thing.But, I got back from my friends' house with a full tummy, checked my voice mail with a cheery message from my mom, and another message from another friend, and I just felt a swoosh of happiness, and I actually feel thankful for everyone that is in my life right now.
And I feel that way even though it's Thanksgiving.
That feels good.
