At least once a day the flittering thought that ‘I should write that person a thank you note,’ runs across the congested space at the front of my face. It’s quickly forgotten until someone shows me another kindness - which is thankfully very, very often. I rarely get to those gestures of appreciation, but I think about the wonderful people in my life almost constantly. If you’ve held my kid, shared a beer with me, sent me a note, given me a hug, told me I had spinach in my teeth, invited me to something, voiced that you dug my shoes, told a great joke, helped me reach that thing on the really high shelf, listened to me vent, jumped in to wipe up the 482nd spilled cup that day, fed me something yummy or just looked excited to see me after too-long an absence… I am thankful to you. I didn’t get it on some stationery but this is my thank you note to the universe. I am wildly grateful for the kindness that surrounds me. You all rock. But mostly, I can’t afford Wawa gift cards for everyone, so this’ll have to do.
