I came across this tiny love story recently that shares how a couple used their gratitude jar to express their love to each other. While writing notes of gratitude is a small gesture, the benefits they provide can be deeply meaningful.
A tiny love story from The New York Times…
“We’re supposed to open the jar on New Year’s Day, in our pajamas, reading the little notes of gratitude we’ve written to each other throughout the year. But I haven’t been able to wait. Every time I saw him pause during a happy evening to write down a memory in his delicate script, I unscrewed the jar, pulled out the Post-it (despite his halfhearted protest) and smiled as I read his words: gratitude for our health, our home, our family, our dog, our friendship and love. Why wait to remind ourselves how good life is together?”
