She initially admits that she doesn't feel much toward Thanksgiving, but then progresses to reflecting on the unique memories from her childhood that stick out; she realizes that her perception of tradition was surrounded by a desire to explore and see more variation in the world, experience the new. As she grows older she sees the blatant consumerism and the beauty of 'togetherness' marred by expectations of spending lots of money. As she spends more time with friends and others, they begin to see differently how Thanksgiving can be viewed from multiple perspectives; as she then marries to a husband with a larger family, more diverse, she sees the dichotomy of willing to be in a group of people but also alone. Through reflection she realizes that she actually yearns for the solitude that her childhood Thanksgiving's brought her, and the quiet time with family.

Would you rather be loved or respected? Because?
olchik [2.2K]

I would rather be respected, because, while I may not be complimented as often, I know I won't stand for any disrespect. Also, it won't come my way if I am respected. Other people will know I am a person, and that is enough. No one will give me a hard time or question me if I'm respected, as well. Being loved, but not respected is a dreadful thing.
