Thank You

Hello, my wonderful readers!

Welcome back. Hope all of you are doing great.

In this post, I'm gonna talk about two of the most used words: Thank you.

I'm sure all of us have said these a million times in our lives. You've probably said it a couple times today itself.

But how often do we actually mean that? Sure, we may thank someone for carrying our stuff or opening the door or gifting us something. But think, how many times you've actually meant that?

In fact, it's been taught since we were in preschool that you should say "thank you" to anyone who helps you but we were not taught to actually mean it, were we?

That's precisely what I'm gonna talk about today.

You see, thank you are very simple words but they carry a lot of meaning.

Saying thank you and meaning it from the bottom of your heart is termed as having gratitude or being grateful.

Now, being grateful doesn't mean that you go out of your way to thank someone but it actually means that you say thank you to that person with a warm smile and with your heart filled with appreciation and gratitude for them. That will not only make them happy, but it'll fill you with happiness and it'll be fulfilling.

One more thing I've learnt is that we will never have enough time to do everything and meet everyone. Sometimes, you may not even realise when someone you love may go far away from you or you may lose them.

So, don't ever lose the chance to thank someone special when they are right in front of you or you may regret it forever. 

And one last thing I've to say is that we should not express gratitude only when people do grand gestures for us. Rather, it's the small things they do! Like checking up on you during a tough time or making sure you're getting enough sleep or telling you not to work too much or texting you one last time before they sleep. All of this means that they genuinely care about you and never underappreciate that! You should be grateful if you have such people in your life as it shows how much you're cared for.

Here's something you can do:-

Stand up and say thank you to your parents for taking care of you and ensuring that you grow up in the best way possible. Thank your sister or brother, if they aren't next to you, call them! Tell them how grateful you are for having them in you life. Thank that one friend you have who keeps asking how you are and remembers the date of little things in your life even when you aren't that close but he/she does it because they care about you. Thank all those teachers who taught you and impacted you, tell them who you've become today and just talk to them and ask how they're doing. Say thanks to someone you know who you aren't in much contact with but with whom you share some of your best memories. Thank that person from your tuition who made you laugh and kept you from falling asleep. Thank all those who believed in you when no one else would and kept encouraging you to try new things. Thank everyone who has helped you at some point in your life and made you who you are today. 

You know why? Cause if we want to repair this world, we need to fill it with gratitude and ensure that no one does a thankless job. 

That's it for today.
