It's no surprise that National Gratitude Month falls in the same month as Thanksgiving.

Studies show that if we're able to recognize and be grateful for the blessings in our lives, we are happier. And it sure beats complaining.

So, this month, let's look at the glass half-full. We encourage you to express your gratitude in as many ways as possible, on as many days as possible.

How? Say thank you, in person or in a note. Though thank you notes are best written as close to the event as possible, it's never too late. And it's always appreciated. Give thanks today and every day!
