It is a friendly greeting....It means the same to those who were raised in the Southern Traditions, as a St. Patrick's Day Greeting to those who are Irish....it is a greeting....or a Mother's Day Card to a mother....or a Father's Day Card to a father....a Merry Christmas Card to those who celebrate Christmas....a Happy Hanukah Card to those who celebrate Hanukah....or a Happy Kwanza Card to those who celebrate Kwanza...it is merely a greeting, nothing more or nothing less...just a friendly greeting.
