Teaser Tuesday: 365 Thank Yous



"But it seemed uncanny that Grace had written this note just before I'd determined thank-you notes to be my way out of despair.  By thanking me for a Christmas present, she awakened me to something in my life, however small, for which I could be grateful."

-- 365 Thank Yous: The Year a Simple Act of Daily Gratitude Changed My Life by John Kralik.

This is a great little book. I am enjoying it tremendously and am already thinking of notes to write myself.  Of course, I am a huge fan of the handwritten note, so he is preaching to the choir.


Teaser Tuesdays is hosted by Should Be Reading, where you can find the official rules for this weekly event.

    Handwritten thank you notes are such a small thing--but an incredibly touching small thing. I've tried to teach my son to take the time to do these. Great teaser!

    Wonderful teaser and so profound. Thank yous, like a smile, are so simple and so easy to give and their impact is priceless. Too many people don't understand this. I think this book sounds terrific and so worth reading.
    Thank you!

    Perfect teaser, because it tells you a lot about the subject of the book (I think); hopefully most of us have finished our thank you notes for Christmas gifts. :)

    I'm always terrible about actually writing thank you notes; emails and texts are easy and instant. But handwritten notes do convey so much more...maybe reading this book will convince me to do it more!

    I'm a definite believer in daily gratitude. It really changes your mindset when you focus on the positive and the blessings in your life rather than the things you lack.
