Tis the season

I was just referred to today as being very anti-holiday. The response that I have to that is, yeah so what? It is not the fact that I am against the holidays. They are all fine and dandy in their own way. It all comes down to me being ever more apathetic toward the holidays. Frankly, I am beginning to realize how unnecessary it is to dedicate one day out of the year to something. I am all for the birth of Christ, His death and resurrection, and the giving of thanks, but why just celebrate them on that single day? Is our country that pitiful and pathetic that it takes these days for us to remember such important events or concepts? I have the right to formulate and express my opinion, which I rarely do express but definitely do put a lot of time and thought into developing them. If I want to treat the holidays as just another day off to me, well then that is by all means fine with me and should be acceptable by everyone else. That just brings me back to the sad reality of our world today that most people regard their opinions as fact or as being revealed to them by God as the only means acceptable at looking at something. People are getting more and more on my nerves in general, which is starting to lead to a complete frustration with people in general. There are a handful that defy the way that the society seems to be going, which I am glad to have as good friends. Outside of those people, all other people, so it seems, are just one ultimate frustration and bother. Unfortunately I have to interact with people everyday. With the state of people, is it any surprise that I am so reserved?!
