Be Thankful

"God gave you a gift of 86,400 seconds today.  Have you used one to say 'thank you'?"  - William A. Ward

When was the last time you expressed your gratitude to a person? You know, it's hard to get people in our lives who can make our days. Very seldom do we find reasons and gifts to actually thank the people around and God. Yet, when we do find them, amidst all the happiness and excitement the only thing that we forget to do is be grateful.

Life might be vile and completely unfair, but yet it gives us moments and opportunities to be thankful..to people..to God. You never know when things will change, you never know when people might change. You never know when these scenic moments might slip away from your grasp. Value them and value the people in your life. Thank them for being there for you.

Out of all which are priceless, gratitude is a priority. See, it costs nothing to thank someone. Not a single penny. We eat, we sleep, we work, we talk, we dream, we wish and we do all things that any normal person would. Then why do we think twice before uttering a 'Thank You'? 

There are some people whom you can't thank enough, someone like a mother. But a simple utterance once in a while can change and improve relationships. Don't take anyone for granted.

It takes something close to two seconds to say it...Before it's too late take time out to thank all around you. Trust me, what you would get in return is something more than just satisfaction. You will receive blessings to be happy forever.

    You reminded us all something that we must all do and yet we don't have time to. Returning to people whom we like, whom we cherish is absolutely vital.
