This year it seems appropriate to really show our thanks for all the presidents that have come before the present one. I mean, ordinarily, President's Day is just a lovely federal holiday in February that allows us to have a 3 day weekend. And don't get me wrong, I love this whole 3 day weekend thing. There are lunches to be had with people you love, and sleeping in to do. I personally would love a 3 day weekend every week. (It's much more civilized, don't you think?) But this year, I actually thought about the reason for the holiday.
I thought about the sacrifices that have been made and the hard work that has been done by Presidents 1-44. Not all have been perfect, but most all have done what they thought was right for their constituents - the American People. At this particular moment of time, when the current President is doing only what he thinks is right for himself, it would be lovely to have any one of those previous Presidents back to knock some sense into him.
But that's just my 2 cents. Now, I'll go back to enjoying what little is left of my 3 day weekend!
