Happy gratitude day. Thanksgiving, Halloween and all this shit, Valentine's day and black Friday nonsense. Never understood. My mother's response when I brought her flowers on mother's day being a child: bring me flowers when you feel like it, not because it's a day in the fucking calendar.... RIP mom.

Mom spoke truth—though I do see the validity of people needing something on their calendar to celebrate and draw their attention to the present moment.

Calendars give them structure in life.... I don't judge them at all.
