Nothing 4 Nothing

You know what has been bothering me? The sight of those day after Thanksgiving shoppers storming through department store doors, with absolutely nothing to live for except picking up a bargain. Knocking down anyone who got in their way. Seeing the greed in their stupid, self-involved faces and in their actions makes me tremble in fear, shock and confusion. Is this the spirit of Christmas in America today? Do people just harbor a need to accumulate "things"? It is damn pathetic. No wonder the rest of the world hates us. You don't see this happening in Europe or the Middle East.... Clarify your thinking people!! Are "things" that important to you?
I bet they wouldn't stampede through doors to donate food to the homeless, or storm through the doors of a church on Christmas to praise God. Yet for 50% off any useless object they'd kill their fellow man to get it. It is insane!!! It makes me want to crawl inside my shell and not come out until next year!! Bah Humbug....everyone.
