“Thank you” It’s a word I say and hear so much throughout every day, but it carries so much more weight and meaning when you go one step further and explain why you’re thankful. I’ve been challenging myself to go beyond “thank you” and to be specific over the last few months, and it’s been super enjoyable. From the barista who goes out of their way to bring my coffee to my table, to the coworker who demonstrates unstoppable drive in the face of a challenge, to my partner in crime going out of her way to do something kind for me.
