Black Friday

Why is black Friday a thing? This time of there year every commercial and advertisements seem to be showing all the deals you can get on black Friday. It feeds our gluttonous culture. People get up ridiculously early in the morning the day after we give thanks for everything that we have, in order to buy a bunch of things we do not need because we are getting great deals. Why do we need so much stuff? Black Friday is one of the most gluttonous events in America, not to mention the greed that is involved too. We want, want, want, all that we can get. The media just fuels this appetite by showing us all the places we can  get great deals and the best tips for black Friday.





This picture speaks to how terrible black Friday is. Do we really need all the things we buy? All the things the media says we need? This does not just mean black Friday, but all the time, even though it is amplified on black Friday. Just think about it over the break. Give thanks for what we have, because God did bless us with all that we need, and do not event think about saying you do not have all that you need, because all you need is food, water, and one pair of clothes. Many people around the world do not even have that. Just be extra thankful this thanksgiving, and remember on black Friday that we have way more than we need. On that note, Happy Thanksgiving everyone!
