Gratitude

Leave a comment

How do you express your gratitude? – A good question from the daily writing prompt.

I like to express gratitude personally.

My mom taught me to say “thank you” often. And I always have to this day. I see it brighten people’s day. Looking into a person’s eyes also when saying it.

I’ll take the time to express my feelings more deeply of what they or a gesture meant to me when appropriate, in person or by mail.

Finding a gesture that hopefully gives them the same or better feeling.

When I get birthday greetings on Facebook, I reply to each person instead of one post thanking everyone.

I tip well.

I sometimes make prints of events for people.

Sometimes when given love, we get them a toy.
