What's Up? Anyone Stopping Just To Say Thanks?

Boy, it's a tough world today, bad news around every corner, gloom and doom predicted, and I hate to turn on the TV or radio (except for all music stations). Even some of my favorite TV dramas are focused on economic crisis issues. Can't get away from it ...

There are so many people whose lives or lives of their loved ones are being touched (not in a good way) by the negative economics of today. My heart goes out. ...

So what makes a person feel good? Well, having something to believe in, faith, hope and grace. Doing good deeds, even little things like paying the bridge toll for the person behind you. Ever done that? You would be amazed what a pleasure a few bucks can bring. Even if its fleeting, do it. Feel good today.

Other things that bring pleasure: a few moments of stretching, a hot cup of coffee on a cold morning, meditation, and ... saying thanks to someone you appreciate. I got the following email this morning and I am sure it provided double pleasure - to me AND the sender- in the making and in the receiving, and maybe it will remind you that it feels good to say thanks to someone who deserves it ... and it feels good to receive it too.

Here goes:

Did I tell you thank you? You are a GEM! Why didn't I find out about you and all your wonderful information years ago?

I would gladly pay a subscription price just for the service and many free things that you provide. Do you have any idea how much you are needed and appreciated in this economy in California?

OK -- I'll calm down now . . . I will be an avid reader, and if there is anything I can do as a homeowner of a condo in a HOA that only covers the measly 13 units we have - just ask.

I really appreciate what you are doing - and you obviously are doing it very well, and I just thought someone should tell you that YES - someone is paying attention -- and it matters that you are willing to share your expertise.

Thank you again, BL, CHICO.

PS. did I thank you already? just in case . . . thank you very much!

Make someone else's day today, give a shout out ... remind them that you care about them ... send a thank you just for being them!
