Expressing gratitude can change someone’s life

Thank you typed out on a piece of paper

I have always enjoyed watching CBS Sunday Morning. The stories are always unique, heartfelt, genuine, and inspirational.

This morning, one of the segments stood out to me. It was about a thank-you note from a third grader that a 95-year-old World War II veteran held onto for over a decade. My words cannot do the story justice, you should watch it yourself.

It is an important lesson that whether we like it or not, what we do and say affects those around us.

As in this case, expressing gratitude can change someone’s life. So write that letter or speak those words to those you love, appreciate, and want to thank. You never know what that will truly mean to the person on the receiving end.
