Sometimes we forget to say thank you to people who have been good to us, to someone who helped us, to a friend that cared for us, to a parent that love and took care of us, to God specially for all the blessings he's been showering us... And a lot more things to thank for. Sometimes we take for granted saying thank you even for small little things that we receive without in return. We should start to saying "thank you" more often to show our appreciation to other person's kindness! We should realize how blessed we are to have them in our life so we shouldn't miss the opportunity to thank them now while they are still here with us. A Thank You counts a lot!

I guess I'm used to say "Thank you" that sometimes I said it without noticing it. I realise that it actually lose it's value because I said it because I'm used to say.

I agree with you, one should be always thankfull to God for living, having loveones and daily blessing received. I think the best kind of giving is thanksgiving. Gratefulness and simple living go hand in hand. When we are thankfull, we appreciate life’s free gifts. Through this appreciation, we find contentment.
A thanks to you for sharing your thoughts with us. :-)
"Life without thankfulness is devoid of love and passion. Hope without thankfulness is lacking in fine perception. Faith without thankfulness lacks strength and fortitude. Every virtue divorced from thankfulness is maimed and limps along the spiritual road."
-- John Henry Jowett
