I Christmas Gratitude
Do we think enough about saying “Thank you” at Christ
mas? We hurry and rush-through the busy days before Christ
mas, and then when Christinas actually comes we put off the
mood of giving and sit down intent upon the culmination of
our effort, which is reached when we receive. We take what
comes—-sometimes eagerly, sometimes with a disappointed shrug
—but we take what comes, do wo not, and are. we always
prompt to give our thanks? A certain-benevolent lady said last
year, “I gave thirty-eight'preseuts this Christmas and received
only nine letters of thanks.” This seemed drf.sqiful beyond
wprdsF' “And what of the others ?” I hastened to ask. .“Some
of them thanked me when we neit met,” she said carelessly,
“and some of them never thanked me at all, You know,” site
added af ter, a paus?, Bone of the hardest things to do is to givo
thanks graciously. Some people can never do it. It is the dis
tinct 'mark of high breeding. I don’t, suppose any one but 7i
king or a princess lias really the perfect art o'f saying ‘Thank
you.’ ” It is a mark of .good breeding to be prompt and gracious
in giving thanks. Even if the gift is a pincushion and you
already have ninety-nine others, say “Thank you” sweetly,
affectionately and in the spirit of Christmas. Do nm let twen
ty-four hours pass by. without teking sufficient tilne to write
an appreciative, affectionate little note to every one who hd3 re
membered you at. Christmas time. Though this m:.y be looked
upon as a drty to others, it i3 far more than that: it,is a duty,
to yourself, a very real duty, for to be diseourt* ous is to be
selfish, and to be selfisii is to be' outside of mar.y of life’s keen
est joys. As a matter of self training, if for no other reason,
say “Thank you” as quickly and attractively am sincerely as
you can., ,
