Giving Thanks

Once again we approach the holiday of Thanksgiving.  I would like to remind everyone the remember how blessed we are to be American citizens.  First I am going to give a bit of a history lesson on how Thanksgiving came to be.  When the first pilgrims arrived here, they were very ill prepared for the fastly approaching winter.  A few of the native americans befriended them and taught a little on how to survive the winter.  Being the ever opportunists, the anglo's invite the natives to a feast in order to gain a little bounty from them.  Now, don't get me wrong, I am hoping that there was good intentions on the celebration.  But being a native american, I am wondering why just because people are white anglo europeans that they decide that the land belongs to them.  You should stop and think about how many people were actually here when they arrived.  I am guessing there had to be close to several million inhabitants over the continent.  But you know how that goes if you are white anglo, everything belongs to you.  I wonder what my life would be if the anglos hadn't made that ocean voyage.  Hmmmm, probably something boring like ummm, like watching a heard of bison take three days to pass because of the sheer number.  Swimming in a river that has never been used as a toilet or garbage disposal.  Never catching diseases that have the word 'pox' in it.  Never knowing what greed really is, and never hearing the expression 'alcholic'. 

This is a great country.  The one thing we Americans have always been grateful for is our freedom.  Freedom does come with a price.  You have to fight for it day in and out.  Little freedoms, like the right to just sit and observe nature and life.  To get a drink of water or use the restroom with out having to be a 'paying customer'.  To be able to choose what lifestyle you want to persue.  To not have others trying to tell you what 'they' think is best for all.  "They" need to stop and think how 'they' are living on a slowly sinking barge on a river in Egypt.  I see how a 'thing' has become all so consuming no one can even think about anything els.  The persuit of happiness has become the persuit of the all worthless currency.  Our nation is in a crisis right now.  People terrified of the economy collasping and ending the world as they know it.  Now our dully elected officials have decided they can fix the problem by how the problem became to be.  Spending money that they do not have.  This is called credit.  I will be the first to admit that I did my fair share of the problem, but I also learned from the mistake and have yet even bought anything on credit in a decade.  I basically save my money to purchase what I want with cash.  I came to find that you don't need half the stuff you want.  HMMMM, what a concept.  What about the purchase of a home, Lisa, you ask.  Well, call me a crazy feakin' half breed, but why do we have buy a place to live.  Why couldn't someone just pick someplace and like live on the land they chose?  Oh yeah, that is not the anglo way.  The anglo way is to say we are white everything belongs to us, if you don't like it we will kill you.  Nothing can be a gift to mankind, not even our health.  Pretty soon, we won't be able to go to a doctor if we want.  You will have to get permission from a non-medical advisor.  I am wondering if that will work like those neighborhood facists groups.  If ya ain't in the click ya ain't getting in.  Thanks for those wonderful little perks that comes from living in a super power run by power crazy anglos and those who want to be anglo so bad they pretend they are.  Well anyway, the one thing I can be greatful for is that anglos don't like manual labor so I always have some kind of income to pay for the small little things that make me happy.  Food, shelter, clothing, and fuel for my car that has no payment attached.  Many would say that I am a pauper, I say I live like a princess.  Hey I am not in jail, yet.  Wait till the big question comes about health coverage...well at least I do know a few remedies passed down that will prevent and heal common ailments....not those annoying little illnesses that seem to be tied to anglo genetics.
Well sorry about the rambling, but I think alot of my fellow cyber peeps will get where this thought is headed.

Peace Out and Happy Turkey Day....

Oh yeah, DON'T FORGET TO GET OUT THERE AND SPEND LIKE YOU HAVE NEVER SPENT BEFORE ON BLACK FRIDAY!!!!!!  WE NEED THAT GAS PRICE TO DROP AT LEAST ANOTHER FIFTY CENTS... OH WAIT I HAVE THAT BACKWARDS,  STAY IN AND SAVE....THOSE RETAILERS WILL GET THE POINT ACCROSS.
