When was the last time that I thanked someone is a very good question. Every day I will tell my coworkers thank you for various things that they have done for me to make something easier for me. But did I feel an overwhelming feeling of thankfulness. It was nice. It helped me out but I did not have that deep down in your heart thankful attitude. I think that the last time I had that deep down appreciation for someone else and truly thanked them from the bottom of my heart was when I looked at my Dad and I saw someone who through the years stood by me and helped me become the person I am today. It is sad to say that I did not realize this until way into adulthood. I now see a man who uses crutches to get around but I know that he would suffer through his pain to help me out. I can see the sacrifice that he made for me in the past and even is still doing for me and it melts my heart into one full of thanksgiving. Thanksgiving for a loving parent. Most of the time I try to show my appreciation by helping him do things that were once so easy for him to do. So the last time I truly thank my dad was on my last visit home and then by phone call on Father’s day.
