Thankfulness is the spirit of Thanksgiving, but every year I probe my brain for specifics to name and recognize--without success. Every Thanksgiving I write about how ungrateful I have always been told I am and of how much I agree with the opinion.

i have never celebrated Thanksgiving coz it's an american tradition, maybe it'll come ashore in Finland too one day like halloween seems to have done to some extent.

that little jonathan seems to idolise you :) i just hope he won't pick up on your drinking habits when he gets older. hm, you know, it might not be such a good idea to let him read your journal, he might go and blab about the stuff you've written there to your relatives or something.

I wondered who this was...You didn't tell me that you changed journal names! So confused >.>;

Nah, I don't think Thanksgiving will ever spread in its original form. Maybe people will start celebrating family and feeling grateful, but at the core: isn't that what Christmas sort of is about? No point in having two of the same holidays ;P

Haha, I don't know if he idolizes me, but he can be pretty sweet :3 Actually the whole journal thing worried me because I expected him to blab about my shit to his mother (who we all hate), who might use it against my uncle or me (through him). I'm not so worried about him blabbing directly to my uncle, 'cause he knows I drink and stuff. It's not like he cares if I've been making out with some guy that's not my bf (although jonathan certainly wondered =.= now that was embarassing to try to explain).
