Say Thank You

It seems the art of saying thank you has disappeared. When my children were growing up they always made out thank you cards, for gifts they received, and sent or delivered them. It was their responsibility, and they did it well. In fact they still do.

It is such a blessing when someone takes the time to not only say 'thank you', but to give a little of themselves in a hand written card.

When was the last time you showed gratitude for a gift, or anything, that someone else did or gave you? When was the last time you received one?

This doesn't mean that every time you do something for someone that they should acknowledge it; though those that really appreciate often do. Sometimes you do things just because, and don't expect anything in return; but start the ball rolling and acknowledge that which others do for you. Say thank you in a way that can be touched, it can make all the difference in the world.

Have a grande day, and 'thank you' for reading my thoughts :O)
