Over the course of a month or so, Tom would send personal thank-you notes; physical, handwritten paper notes; to people he wanted to thank. Not only people he knew and saw regularly, but strangers and brief acquaintances. His hope was to make a mark in a karmic kind of way and reiterate the meaning of ‘thank-you’ again. What he found was there was much more to his experiment than he expected. Isn’t that a fantastic bi-product of this little adventure? Much like a diary or your daily collections in a Moleskine, acknowledging these moments and physically marking them in a positive way can give perspective for a lot of things. Who would you send thank-you notes to today? A Little Gratitude – [Esquire]
