The two best words ever: Thank you


Wonderful two words for all the people visiting our lives and people moving on from there onwards.


Thank you for coming in my life and adding to it. The duration of stay is irrelevant since the contribution made, outweighs time.


Thank you is two words of joy, when we think of all the people who filled our cup; brought a smile on our face, taught us some lesson, held onto our hand a few seconds longer, gave us a hug of comfort, taught us to cry again, dreams which were a bit dusty and rusty became clear, gave flight to us when we were paused and made a simple kiss more effective than any anti aging cream, since it was filled with love.


People have given us so much in simple and quiet ways everyday but only a few get documented. Gestures of care and affection go unnoticed, unacknowledged in the fast pace of the world we live in.


For all those words, moments and experiences these two words summarize it best, yet leave us room to swim in those moments whenever we want, whenever we feel and whenever we think of all those wonderful people (Relationships with tags and especially those nameless ones that don’t warrant any tag) entwined their aura with ours.


Thank is a word of gratitude, appreciation and filled with soul. The word You, is celebration of the people, their presence or absence in our lives and the magic they created, which we cherish and carry with us each day. They touched and filled us with their small bits.


A small moment may last longer than years and years can be summarized in a moment, that's why Thank You is a fit for both and does justice to both.


This is the most beautiful gift to be given to people presently in our lives, for we never know which moment will be our last so why lose out on giving our loved ones this gift today and everyday, truly the best vitamin recommended for all ages.


Thank you is also the best parting gift for those passengers on a train called life, since each one of us has to exit at our respective station, why leave without giving this beautiful gift (relationships in motion and transit) to remember us, for joy no matter how small or big has added something to our lives.


Their presence did brighten the day, despite the lights going off at some point. No matter how long or dark the tunnel, we did start in light and will be back in it once the tunnel is over.


So why hold on to pain, longing, need and disappointment when things end, those are reactions of the mind, ego and self image not the warmth of the heart, where memories are forever moist and young.


The end is only a new beginning so why not say thank you with a big smile, you never know we might meet them again when all roads meet at some place.


Life is brilliant for each goodbye there is a new hello but both entry and exit is more brilliant when we say thank you.


There is so much to be grateful for each day if we were to ever count we would run out of paper and the only two words would be thank you.


Lets not waste another moment without this joy and above all without giving it (saying it) to all those who have touched our lives.


To you all and my all: Thank You.

  1. Wonderful blog. Each person in our life teaches us something. All experiences good or bad enrich or wisdom. You have rightly said that we must take away positive memories of each person. And yes we must never forget to thank those who are our own.
