The sense of Thanksgiving Day

Hi everybody,

as we all know, recently "we" celebrated Thanksgiving Day and I'm writing to say my opinion about this day.


To be honest, I've never celebrated this day and I think I can say with a cool head that I'll never celebrate it.(If you're American and you're reading this at the moment, I'm sorry, but here in Europe it's not so cool as in the U.S or Canada). No, I don't know many families in our country which meets and celebrates two or three days in a row, watches football, prepares turkey, eats cranberry sauce or pumpkin pie and so on. Yes, I respect an american thanksgiving, but this European thanksgiving seems to me little, mm, ridiculous. Just another stupid copy.

If I wanna thank for something, I don't need a special day for it, do I ?

Of course I don't want to offend those who celebrate thanksgiving and don't look at me as some ignorant, but I only can't see no reason to celebrate the traditional American feast in Europe (apologize to Germans and Dutch). I'm just saying my opinion.

Thanks 4 reading this. Have a nice day :))
