A Happy Little Thing Called "Thank You"

I have written before about how being a cancer survivor fills you with gratitude. A Boston College Student Josh Coyne decided to do an experiment to show that expressing gratitude leads to decreased stress, increased self love and happiness. His results were statistically significant. I have found that I more freely express my gratitude and keep a pile of thank you cards on the ready. I went through over 5 packages of thank you cards during my 7 months of treatment and the months following. I am thankful that others can learn how demonstrating your thankfulness makes you a happier person.

Oh and in case I haven't told you, I am grateful for you. Thank you for your continued support.
