Well this past month was good and not so good. I found myself very busy at work, and wasn't able to write as many thank you's as I would have liked. I am determined to send 30 thank you's, but it's going to take a little longer than a month.
I have a lot of people to thank, but feel bad that I won't be able to get to everyone. I have found it hard sometimes to say thank you. Crazy right? I have some friends that I have never really thanked for things they have done for me, but found it hard to express my feelings. Mostly my guy friends...probably something to do with the "dude-code"...whatever that is. But this month has been a good reminder that no matter what, people should be praised for the nice things they do. There were even occasions when the same people let me know the "thank you" came at an opportune time whether it be a busy time in life, or a time they weren't feeling very appreciated. And that makes it worth it.
Is there someone you know that deserves a thank you? Probably. Will you tell them how you feel? I hope so.
I know I'm going to think about it a lot more, and try to appreciate the relationships I've enjoyed through the years.
As for December, I'm ready for a break. It's becoming a hassle coming up with something new to do this month. So I'm taking a break from it all. No internet, no TV, no facebook, no words with friends on my phone. I have some reading I want to do, I want to play my mandolin a bit more, I want to write a few more thank you's....and send it the old fashion way (you're welcome USPS). It's been a great year, now its time to sit back and relax, and not be bothered by all this technology.
I hope you all have a great December.
