I Love My Mom and Dad
I Hate Cards!... Anyone who knows me KNOWS I hate cards! I think they are a waste of money, just meaningless pieces of expensive cardboard! Why do people feel so pressured to buy these stupid things? More importantly, why do i have to feel obligated to buy something so useless?!
I despise commercial holidays! Probably because I don't believe in organized religion, and 90% of this country's holidays are religious in some way...
I tell everyone how i feel about cards because i don't want them and i refuse to get them!
There is however, one exception....
Every once in a while, usually when my life has hit an overwhelming amount of adversity and i feel like i am drowning in the turmoil... barely keeping my head above water... my mom sends me a card, that says exactly what i need to hear...
I still have every single one of them... i don't keep anyone else s birthday cards. I just take the money out and toss it in the trash! My mom never puts money in the cards... but if i had a handful in front of me and could only choose one... i would know exactly which one to pick because i would recognize my mother's handwriting anywhere! Even if i knew there was $100 in every one of the other cards, i would still choose hers :-)
