Warning: Rant. Yeah, it’s only my second post, but I have to prove a point. So today, my roommate informed me that she thinks Groundhog's Day is a stupid holiday. She even took the time to write a ridiculous blog rant about it. She wanted to kill Punxsutawney Phil. How could she be so lame? Punx is a National Icon. I even took the time to learn how to spell his name. He is a true hero. He brings hope and joy to millions of people around the country. For the adults, a hope that snow shoveling and ice scraping are coming to a close. For the children, a hope for many fun filled days of sledding, snow men, and ice forts are still to come. You know what is a dumb holiday? Arbor Day. Seriously. (Here I mention the aforementioned roommate is a tree hugger :)) How many days do we have to celebrate earth? Really. Now before you go and call me an earth hater, let me explain. This earth is great. It’s beautiful. I love it. But really, how many days do we have to have to celebrate it? By celebrating it, we diminish its overall value. When we pick several days to celebrate this planet, then we stop taking care of it every other day. Yeah, that’s right. I just defended saving the earth. But only to prove a point. Don’t count on this every time. I leave the water on while I brush my teeth. Peace and Blessings.
