03/23/2011: thank you / i'm sorry / you're welcome / i forgive you / (?)

hey!

i've been updating the thank you cards silently over the past few months. It's an unusual project I don't think I'll fully understand until it's over. Originally, I intended to write a thank you note to someone or something every morning or night and carry it with me for 24 hours to let its power work on me. It quickly brought up feelings of remorse and questions of self-worth. The idea of being grateful for life is apparently not such a simple one. I'll keep making these until I've done them for a year (sometime in June, right?) and then I'll look them over and try to make some conclusions. Till then, all I can tell is it's a strange road…

as always, new reasons to be happy are being posted almost daily at www.100reasonstobehappy.com.
