Card Reading Day 2024

Moneys Tight Christmas Card obverse    

I used to be quite the sentimental being. Yes, I would wax all ushy gushy at the drop of a hat. I'm sorry to say that I lost all the romance and snuggle bunny attitudes long ago in favor of a more reserved, if somewhat cynical personality which has stuck with me a while now.

Today is Card Reading Day.

It is observed each February 21 as one of those sentimental notions which used to frequent my psyche. I try to save each and every card I am sent though I must admit my filing system has seen better days.

Personally, I prefer a more crass humorous card such as this one that my late sister in law, Peggy Childers Williamson gave me for our last Christmas.
 

I just stopped thinking "feelings" were so important with the advent of the idiotic woke generation and the transexuals in particular.

I don't care what they think because their stance is without merit and their position on gender lacks any scientific basis. How you feel only goes so far in the presence of a mind honed on the tenets of biology, anatomy, and physiology.

Somehow self mutilation simply does not qualify as anything resembling a worthwhile endeavor or intelligence of psychosocial positionining.

So whether you're soft and warm and gentle — or somewhat abrasive like I am — I hope you'll take a moment to savor those interludes from time gone by. Read through a few cards and see if you can recapture the magic of those kinder, gentler times in your life.

Happy Card Reading Day to you !
