I hope you all had a wonderful "Thanksgiving."
My butler and I chose to observe this American Holiday. It was interesting, my butler made me a feast while I watched him hide his despair that he will not yet have one.
Hmhm~
Anyway, I suppose I should express my gratitude or whatever.
So, I shall begin.
I'm thankful that I'm rich, because if I were poor, I wouldn't so easily be able to work my way to power.
I'm thankful for sweets, because they are a rather tasty delicacy.
I'm thankful for toys, because they make kids smile, thus, making their parents spend more money.
I'm thankful for books, because of the vast knowledge they contain.
I'm thankful for my idiot servants, mostly because they make me feel better about myself
(And, they fulfill their duty as Phantomhive servants)
I'm thankful for my followers, because they remind me that my Twitter actually has a purpose and can be used in helpful ways.
Lastly I'm thankful for my butler, because, um, well, I'd be buried with my family without him by my side...
And, he's a good person. He's the one person I have no problem talking to. Perhaps it's easier speaking to a screen than a face, but, getting to know him and having him as an RP partner is an honor. I'm really privileged to consider him a close friend of mine.
B-But that doesn't mean there will be any yaoi!
Anyway, I guess these blogs are known for having an inspirational message, so, here it goes.
It really disappointed me when I found out that some of my family or friends were celebrating thanksgiving by themselves. It also disappointed me when I found out that my friends feel inferior to other family members or that they live in a home where they don't feel loved.
I can't go over to you and offer my home, provisions, or the world, but how about this instead?
Thanksgiving is symbolic of two very different worlds actually stopping their conflict to get along for once.
They ended up having war upon war after,
But for one day,
Everything was perfect.
There are multiple holidays where we can observe this practice, but there will be times when we see family that we hardly speak to, have conflict within our own homes, or end up alone.
Ironic coming from me, but I encourage you to let this one day be a moment where you swallow your pride and actually tell someone you love them.
Don't let arguing prevent relationships.
Don't leave your family alone because of your own selfish plans.
And don't feel like nobody loves you.
Someone was grateful for you today and if you don't believe that, believe that it's me who's grateful for you.
You think you don't matter?
Well, you matter to me?
You think I'm lying?
I'll order my butler to tell you the truth about my feelings for you, and he will say the same thing as I.
What strikes me most is that when the weather gets colder and the world gets darker, we make our homes and our hearts warmer.
My soul creation was to make one person happy.
Just one.
No matter what your scenario is, I encourage you to make just one person happy.
It will be then when you find pure joy, because nothing feels better than putting a smile one someone's face, and knowing that you put it there.
Hopefully as this season grows colder, the manor will grow warmer, and I will invite any who need refuge.
I may be arrogant,
But I will not save someone just to brag about it,
Or to fulfill a debt.
Even a Scrooge of an Earl like me can have compassion once in a while.
Oh, and since Thanksgiving is over we can celebrate Christmas now I suppose.
Although I prefer to wait December 1.
Anyway, stay strong little pawns, and don't let this fight against life bring you down.
Trust in your King, and that he will make all the right moves just for you~
Your Earl of Sweets,
Ciel Phantomhive
