WTH is May Day anyway, never heard of it before. Seems aimless to me, all they did was tear down their neighborhood. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Elmo Posted May 4, 2015 Share Posted May 4, 2015 May Day is an ancient holiday that certain countries still celebrate. It's done on May 1st and at the time of its origins, the people then had thought it was the first day of summer. Thus, May 1st is some times referred as simply May Day. First time I heard of it was when I first went to China on vacation back around 2002. I had to reschedule my flight and it was really difficult because apparently half the whole country took the entire week off and someone had to explain to me why.

It was a celebration of spring and every class celebrated it...We made cone flower holders to put on neighbors doors and made paper flowers to put in them it was to show friendship.

Vince1 Posted May 4, 2015 Author Share Posted May 4, 2015 (edited) Those are animals too, they come in all colors.............I agree. But people get so caught up with color they fail to see there is a deeper problem in this country that everyone is feeling. Unrest in a nation doesnt just appear for no reason. Cost of a college degree has sckyrocketed Middle income jobs are harder to come by Government is letting attrition eat away at jobs which im not opposed to but has no roadmap for the future that i can clearly see Pisses me off to think about the future. Sad to say all i feel i can do is prepare my own children for it. Problem is something inside eating at me. Always heard it Takes a community to raise a child. Guess thats gone out the window Edited May 4, 2015 by Vince1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
