It wasn't direct, wasn't AT ME. But those who talk about how bad the holiday is felt like they were trying to drag my spirit down. They have their own pain, I know it's not personal. They want people to remember the suffering of Native Americans.

Hi @poemblaze - When folks start that with me, I remind them harvest celebrations are as old as agriculture, and perhaps older. It's not about turkeys and Native Americans. It's about being grateful we have a bountiful harvest (and not necessarily in a religious sense though there has always been that aspect to it.) We're thankful we will move into the new year hale and healthy. That all our loved ones will too. Anyway, happy bountiful harvest! (For which I am indeed thankful.)
@NihilVidere Indeed.
