Hint: This actually happened to me several years ago and someone is about to get a surprise card from me this week! Here are some rules I go by when I want my "thank yous" to really count: *substitute handwritten notes in place of email for significant deeds It's never too late to send a thank you card (I just wrote one to my fifth grade teacher from over 30 years ago!). When you get into the habit of expressing gratitude in a heartfelt way, you subconsciously attract more of what you thanked them for. You bring into your life more people who will help you, especially in times of adversity. More importantly, you become more apt to give back and help others, allowing the universal cycle of giving and receiving to continue unfettered. Food for thought: Imagine you are going to spend a lot of time with one of two people in a professional or personal setting. One person unexpectedly sent you a personal note of thanks. The other did not. They are both of equal background, similar personalities, etc. Which one would you choose to spend time with?
