Think & Thank


My thankful theory has a longer story than it may seem and a deeper and dearer meaning to me than you may think. The above serves as an advice to others, and on my worst days I can't help but think it's a pity that I can't see it... Something to serve as a reminder to myself is still a work in progress. Until then, I am thankful for little meaningful reminders of our blessings in life - seeing a homeless person or an abandoned dog out in the cold when you're on your way to your warm house where you'd be greeted by your cheerful pet makes you think... and thank.

  12. Julia, if I can just make one person smile, then I think I served my purpose. I want my smile to really be contagious. I want everybody to feel good and look at the world with a bright perspective.

    That's why I love your Thank you project... I know that you are happy everyday thinking of things to be thankful for.

  15. Gropius, I know, tattoos is a controversial subject. Even I being a fan don't like them on everyone. So thank you a lot! It always means more when comes from someone who otherwise is not into it :)
