"Thank you" is a limb worth going out on.

Thanksgiving is a good holiday because it reminds us of the thank yous we owe our Creator. It also is a time to think about the thank yous we owe to other humans who have enriched our lives. Seth Godin is glad that so many people are willing to go out on the limb and say thank you:

The vulnerability of 'thank you'

Thank you as in: I couldn't do it without you. As in: I don't want to do this alone. As in: I was afraid. And mostly: I would miss you if you were gone.

Thank you brings us closer together.

Thank you is a limb worth going out on.
