Thank You’s
September 12th, 2008 Posted by: Tilly
Welcome back!
That is something that is not heard as much any more. That is a shame. When someone does something nice, they should hear the words ‘Thank You’.
It is part of life that sometimes good things happen. It is also a part of life that bad things happen, too. How many times has something bad happened, and the people will gripe loudly? Yet, if something nice happens, not a word is spoken?
I have always felt that if I can take the time to gripe about something wrong, I should also take the time to say thanks for the good that is done. One simple word, ‘thanks’, can help another person to have a good day. It might be the only good thing that they will hear all day, or maybe even all week. So, if you can gripe, you can also give back something good. It will leave you with a good feeling inside yourself as well. I”m not talking about insincere words, just a simple sign that you noticed the good that someone did. Smiles are rare and few these days. When you give someone a reason to smile, it will also give you a reason to smile, and make your day brighter,too.
THANK YOU FOR YOUR TIME.

one of the big problems with today’s world is the amazing lack of simple courtesies in everyday life… like that simple expression of gratitude and / or appreciation for something.

Lately I’ve figured that it is much easier to give a smile (besides using fewer facial muscles) and giving the Thank You is so much more accepted than a gripe, too.
