I bought a new fountain pen today, feeling the weight of it in my hand and thinking about all the letters of gratitude I am going to write this year. Dhanteras is the perfect time to start a practice of thanking the people who have helped us reach our current level of success and happiness. A simple note can mean so much to someone else and it costs us nothing but a few minutes of our time and a little bit of sincerity. May you find many reasons to be thankful this year and the words to express it to those who matter most.
