The Meaning of Halloween

I love this time of year and to say that Halloween makes me happy is an understatement. Halloween means that Thanksgiving is just a few weeks away and that is truly my reason for this post. You probably thought I was going to enlighten you as to the actual origin of Halloween, or all Hallows eve. Or, maybe I was going to mention that this “holiday” was created hundreds of years ago when the Saints would dress up and go door-to-door, thus trick or treating, while wearing costumes in modern day celebrations. Although all good stuff, leads to more good stuff, and ends on Thanksgiving. So yeah, Halloween has all the feels of good stuff! 

I am all about celebrating today, and not skipping ahead to the next big holiday, so let’s recognize Halloween for what it is- the day before my favorite month that holds my favorite day. Thanksgiving.
