Today ends “National Write A Letter Of Appreciation Week” (March 1-7). Thank you Thursday seems like a perfect day to write such a letter, doesn’t it? If you’re not quite sure what to say to honor a kind gesture, a memorable event, or a positive influence, let me help…
Dear <name of person you appreciate>,
I really appreciate you and want to be sure you know. When you <something he/she did>, it made me feel <how?>.
I hope you’re having a wonderful day.
With gratitude, <your name>
Go ahead – write a letter of appreciation to someone today. Copy the above template into an email or, even better, hand write the note. Substitute your personal story for the underlined text. Feel free to add more, of course!
Imagine how the recipient will feel when they open the envelope, see your handwriting and read your heartfelt words. Imagine how you will feel, knowing that you didn’t let this opportunity go by.
