As a child, today was a day that seemed like it was sooooooooo loooooooooong! We would go to school barely paying attention in class because we were talking about how we were going to dress for this very cool holiday.
Fast forward to 2018...I honestly can not tell you if kids today are being allowed to be kids. I watched the news last night locally, I was so saddened by the news of a communities where the adult populous has decided that they were not going to celebrate Halloween on the 31st, instead they have decided to move it to the upcoming weekend or they allowed it to be celebrated this past weekend!!
I can only speak for myself, but I am against moving holidays around to make it easier for an adult to be an adult!! My moms , My Aunt's and Uncle's grinned and bared it. I mean if Halloween fell in the middle of the week they stayed up late and took us out to trick-n-treat, they did what us adults are supposed to do, they dealt with it and did the best they could for us- the kids!! Today all I see is a world moving so fast that us adults are failing to slow down for the holidays, and enjoying the precious moments that holidays bring us.
I wonder how long it will be before it is acceptable to move let's say Xmas or the 4th of July so that adults are not inconvenienced by the really important things in life, like work and money.
Notice I did not mention family!!!
We all watched in dis-belief of all the evil that took place over the weekend in Pittsburgh,P.A., we watched the bombs be delivered....
Maybe It's time to slow down and enjoy our loved ones and this holiday, every holiday for that matter....just maybe it's time to start to put family 1st again and the job of making the corporate machine richer 2nd!
