January 11th marks International Thank-You Day! This day serves as a reminder to express gratitude to those who take the time to make our lives better through their service, words and more. For many people “Thank you” rolls right off the tongue but others may take it for granted or assume that others already know how they feel without saying it. We must recognize the importance of saying thank you because you never know how those words can change someone’s day or life!
