Giving thanks on Thanksgiving
Hey guys!
Wanted to send out a quick message to you all before you get all bogged down with travel and Thanksgiving plans!
First, here’s something else to be thankful for ( besides your family, countless blessings, and living in one of the greatest countries in the world) — prices are coming down.
And it gets better: even gas prices are the lowest they’ve been in years!
That’s still not the end of it.
Despite having such a terrible President, according to the Right 🙄🤣, we actually have the greatest economy in the world right now.
And we’re even crushing China. 😳😳😎😎
But remember: we’re all going to have that crazy uncle or person who we spend Thanksgiving with that’s ingesting three hours of FOX News a day. And in case you haven’t figured it out yet, you’re NOT going to be able to convince them of anything.
So just play dumb about politics and keep the conversation on family and small talk.
They’re good people who’ve just been absolutely poisoned by anger and hatred. It’s incredibly sad, honestly, but in most of those cases, they are not reachable.
So, don’t let their rage and fury ruin a Thanksgiving.
Just smile and be a light, if possible. Just don’t be disappointed when that doesn’t work. Because for many of them, they’re not looking for a light.
It’s much more fun to be angry and full of hatred, and to have the grandiose idea that you’re playing some part in an imaginary, raging political battle. And if you just watch a little more news, donate a little more money to Trump’s legal fund, and yell at three more people that week, you might just help your side win the war.
Just smile, try not to laugh, and say a prayer for them if you’re the praying type. Because honestly, they need your prayers. They have put politics before their family and God, and we know the wages of sin are death.
You can’t ingest three hours of anger a day and not turn into what they’ve turned into. 😓
But, we can only control so much, so let’s end with a joke and a smile.
Besides, if you mentioned gas prices being down, you’d only hear this:
Have a wonderful Thanksgiving, everyone, and thanks for your support!! ❤❤
Love and peace,
Stan R. Mitchell
