Say, Thank you.

Say this, not because you want to appease the people around you.

Say this, because this is a reminder that you are a lucky soul —that you have a lot to be thankful for, and that there are a lot of people around you who care about you.

You may not agree with me right away. That’s ok.

Think for a moment.

Remember the night you felt so swamped with work that you had no idea when the date had changed? You were drained, yet ravenous, and of course, ordering a Pizza online was your only option.

There came the delivery guy with your dinner, within half an hour.

Did you feel grateful?

You might feel entitled to a service you have paid for, but it doesn’t hurt to say a word of appreciation. He rode all the way in the dead of the night and defeated the adverse weather to bring you food, after all.

What if this service was not available in your area, what if the outlet was closed, what if there was no one to bring in the food to your doorstep, what if …

See, there are a thousand ways it could have gone wrong. Thankfully, it didn’t.
