Just a Thank You
Few weeks ago, I had to go to electoral department.
It was hot, It was sunny, it was crowded. Just the way I don’t like.
Because of my work at the office, I had to pay Rs 75 for the forms and change. Now it’s not a big deal, but these guys refused to give me change of Rs 500. They told me, you have to get the change by yourself.
I argued, begged, threatened, they never relented. Damn govt officials.
So I started asking around… Guess what with at least 70–80 people, no one had the change for 500. Do you believe it? I’d never, if it wasn’t happening to me.
So in search of a change I went out and start looking for people (now there’s no store in sight, where I can buy things and get change for myself).
After looking for it for 20 minutes, sweating, cursing like a pig, I bumped into a woman. Like a machine I blurted out, “do you have a change for 500?”.
She looked at me (and may be took pity) like a robot,she pulled out her purse and gave me the change.
WOW, I was excited, overjoyed and I was thankful for her help. So I end up saying “Thank you so much”.
Suddenly her complete posture changed, her pupils enlarged, she smiled really big and said “Your welcome”.
Of course, I felt different too… We shook hands and off we go. The whole situation changed. From a shitty day to really good one.
Why?
Because a simple heartfelt ‘thank you’ and a simple heartfelt ‘your welcome’. Before saying “thank you” we both were on automatic, going through the motions of life. Without warning, like a strike of lighting everything changed.
“Thank You So Much”, 4 words changed my whole day.
I realized, How powerful the word thank you can be. We don’t say enough heartfelt thank yous in our life. We are going through the dull motion of our lives. A monotonous “thank you” won’t probably change your day.
Thank You, I love you, Sorry are one of the few words which are far more powerful than we know. We are not using enough of our heart into our lives. How can we change that?
How about really thanking people who are in lives?
How about just stopping and start noticing how life is going around you?
Making a heartfelt change just life that.
