The Power of thanks...

I believe there is a tremendous power in feeling and expressing gratitude. It is so important for us to not only be thankful to others, but also to express that thankfulness. Those to whom we express our gratitude are often greatly encouraged and inspired to receive a message of thanks; it can really make their day!

I want to give you a taste of the power of thanks. Please submit a comment to this post with a brief letter of thanks to either your parents, or one of your teachers (a teacher from any time in your schooling- elementary, junior high, or high school). The letter should thank the individual for something they did for you, gave you, inspired you to do, motivated you toward, etc. What you thank them for should be authentic and your thanks sincere.

As always, use good spelling, grammar, punctuation, and NO texting abbreviations.
Your comment should be submitted by the end of school on Wednesday Nov. 25.

THANK YOU!
