THANK YOU!
You know, I was thinking, a simple thank you can make all the difference in the world. Whether it’s a kind word or in the form of Thank you Cards It can brighten your day, be reassuring and even give you confidence. I love it when someone actually takes the time to thank me for a job well done, it means so much to me that they find it in their heart to stop and take a moment to show appreciation.
I like to do the same as well. I think it’s important to let a person know that what they did or how they may have helped me hasn’t gone unnoticed, and in a world filled with many thankless tasks, letting someone know I care just makes me that much more happier. It’s give and take. For instance, last year my friends and I took a trip. But the problem was we had no where to stay. Honestly, we couldn’t get our plans straight so that held up the process, it was actually looking quite bleak and we didn’t know what we were going to do when one day someone called and said they have a home that we can stay at! We didn’t know these people, never heard of them and really had no connection to them (other then our spiritual beliefs). Here we were 4 complete strangers walking into the home of someone we never even spoke to on the phone. It was AMAZING. We were shocked and so grateful. We ended up being there a week and they all treated us as if we were family.
We keep in touch till this day and hope to one day go back and see our “home away from home” but before we left the 4 of us got together and found a really awesome card, we each took about 5 minutes and thought about exactly what we wanted to say and how we should express our gratitude in words. We all signed it, added a few encouraging words, and then added a little money as a thanks for the hospitality and loads of food we ate LOL and left it on their kitchen table. We left really early that morning, so I’m not quite sure when they finally found it, but when they did I hope they understood and knew just how truly thankful we were.
So, take the time to say thanks, I can assure you that even if it is not returned at least you know in your heart that you showed a little appreciation for something and who knows you might just get it back too 
Wow, that’s pretty crazy about the 4 complete strangers, but you’re right, thank you is worth a million bucks. LOL.
Ooh Im second to comment…and that never happens!
Hi btw, I’m you new affie (I’ve added you)
Yeah, I totally agree, a simple thank you can go a long way.
Very cool thank you card at the side there, with all the different languages!
Izzy! I’m back and here to bother you. :p No, I kid. I agree with you about “Thank You’s”. I feel a whole lot better when people thank me for something I helped them with. Very few people actually do that and those that do, make my day alot better.
And it’s awesome how lucky you guys got with that house! 
Yes, you are quite right. Lovely.
Great to see “diolch” so prominantly on that card too.
speaking of thank you.. i would like to say thank you for the spotlights awards.. *hugs* you did a simple yet great job there ^.^ cheers!
I need a card- I’m going to cry now. How on earth did my pagerank 2 site became pagerank0? :’(
I love giving and receiving cards.I think they can brighten up someone’s day.Sorry I haven’t commented on your site lately but things have been so stressful lately around here!
I am a huge believer in cards. I actually have every single card I have ever received since I was 12 saved in a shoe box. I don’t even want to throw them away xD I actually do read them sometimes and a few make me cry. Which reminds me… I need to buy three cards today!
