On this day that is Thanksgiving, I see a lot of people happy for what they have. And then I see what we do the next day, and it makes me sick. Give thanks only to go out and beat someone over the head, pepper spray them, stab them, or shoot them, all for some ridiculous item that isn't even "40% off." What is wrong with us these days? Are we all really this pathetic, greedy, hypocritical? This is why I've made an oath never to go shopping on this so called "Black Friday" and never be enticed by these false "sales" that stores put of for this day.

I do wish to end this on a brighter note though. I am thankful for so much: My friends, my family, the place I live, the air we breath, but I can't give enough thanks to those who take a step out of their day on Thanksgiving, just to go out and help those who don't have much to give thanks to.

Happy Thanksgiving everyone!
