The Day After or what is yet to come?

So the turkey is in the tupperware and already sick of the leftovers. Some probably hit the streets at 3 in the morning to get a jump on those fantastic sales. Some probably had to go back to work. But whatever, it is the day after and now the rush is on for the holiday season. In what ever manner you celebrate the winter or the end of the year and onslaught of the new one, I am sure the TV ads have just about ruined it.

Why can't we just celebrate being with one another and not because it is 25% off all day or only for the fours before sun up? It is a very nice autumn day out there and in the middle of some store there is fussing and fighting, my friends. I am glad to see people out around the lake and just enjoying the moment.

Just about 1/3 of the school year is behind us. There are actually only 192 days left until the 2010 graduation and the end of this school year. There are so many distractions and the moments speed by all too quickly. Instead of hurry up perhaps a slow down is in order to appreciate the instances and momentary experiences. Most of those include other people - friends, very close friends and/or family. Those experiences are not available at MOA and frequently do not include 25% discount.

Happy sane holiday -- have wonderful couple days and enjoy the moments!
