Happy fkn thanksgiving people...
Ive been thinking about this day and what it symbolizes... I am thankful for many things, many of which are obvious; family, friends, dogs, grass, atmosphere, etc, etc, etc. I am thankful for this day most of all, as a concept; honesty. For good or bad; seeing another for who they are and what they stand for and accepting them and recognizing them for what they are - setting our expectations in reality. I love you... for what you are, not what I want you to be. Not what they want you to be. Not what you should be. Not what you want me to think you are. For what you actually are. You are unique, and an individual that for all your similarities, mirror the multitude of anomalies. We each are different.
I want to mention, because I think its appropriate, to say that in any situation, any crossroad, any divide. Theres always 3 sides to the story. We must take into consideration the perspective we hear the world through, the spin thats put on it, the underlying objective that comes from any one persons agenda, and to not not make statements when we merely mean educated suggestions. Interpretation must be kept open to the facts and critical, contextual thinking. Emotional reactions to circumstantial pleas must be weighed in a world that has flexible walls. The lines we draw in stone are not applicable to every scenario, you know... The world can put people in situations that we may fall victim to the human condition or, you know, victor of circumstance (however you view it), that can be interpreted 15 different ways. Scandalous or righteous, people are what they are and what you know to be... will be what it is. I am thankful for the roller coaster ride I hate so much... I am thankful to breath another breath to hear another dumbass story from some prideful jackass.
I wish for a world where we all are, in the very least, respectful... But I none the less love you for your variety in perspective.
Happy thanksgiving to you all... whether I hate you or not. Today; I am thankful you offer something challenging.
