Your husband is not the only person in your life who will benefit from your appreciation. Anyone who does you a favour, however small, will like to know you’ve appreciated it.
The words “thankyou for [fill in the blank] I appreciate it” cost nothing, yet spread goodwill, improve relationships and make us feel good.
Don’t restrict your appreciation to a few people who are significant in your life – say thankyou to the person on the checkout, the postman who delivers your mail, your child who makes their bed without being asked, a friend who asks you over or a neighbour who moves their car for you.
