Do you know the reason relationships head towards breakup at an alarming rate these days?

Do you know why most of the time there are problems between nations of varied powers?

Do you know why there is unhappiness in a household which has money aplenty?

Do you know why there is egoistical clash and less camaraderie amongst colleagues and coworkers?

The reason is lack of acknowledgment.

In a romantic relationship, both the individuals involved tend to impress the other and share gestures like gifting, texting and more. If such acts are not acknowledged and thanked disappointment arises and then that leads to bitterness and ultimately hatred.

A simple thank you would have solved that problem.

How about nations across the world that don’t acknowledge their mutual good measure towards their citizenry and instead harp on the negatives? This attitude again leads to hatred and not trust. If there was trust then there would be talks and that would lead to goodwill and excellent bilateral relations.

A simple thank you would have solved that problem.

There could be ten people in the household and all the material wealth in the world, but if there is no acknowledgment of the sacrifices done by each individual towards another, then the household remains gloomy and unhappy.

A simple thank you would have solved that problem.

Take this case scenario:

You work hard and file your reports on time. You reach your targets and so on.

Your boss doesn’t even know what you are doing and just passes you by.

Your colleague doesn’t gel well with you.

How would you feel?

Thankless… Right?

Exactly.

That’s the problem. A simple pat on the back from your boss… A simple handshake from your colleagues is enough for you.

Maybe it is time for all of us to be thankful of what we have and who we have in life.

On the occasion of Thanksgiving let us pledge to be thankful.
