Despite 2020 being another rollercoaster of a year filled with varied sorts of emotions I am sure all of us have a reason to feel grateful, to thank someone for their small gifts and helps, their words of comfort, their presence, sometimes even someone's error might have saved our days.

 Today I am writing this as a token of gratitude to all whom I have met throughout this year both significant or insignificant people,  fface to face or virtually in this era of online world, to all who shaped my day whether good or bad. 

I thank God Almighty first for keeping me safe and alive, for letting me keep the roof above my head,  then obviously Candlemonk for providing this platform and you my friends for reading, liking, commenting and supporting me through this new journey. 

On a personal note I feel the list is endless, as I have to thank my parents, siblings, relatives, friends, all who hurt me, all who made me laugh, the passengers, drivers, conductors  in my bus when I travel, the street vendors, online shopping agents,  delivery boys, people I meet during my work life, the poor people I see on the way, the rich flaunting in their cars,  mmy nation for all that it provided and has done, the doctors, soldiers, police force who have sacrificed their lives during this year, the cleaning service sector entirely, and still I feel my list is incomplete!!! 

I know it is weird but I feel I should thank even the inhuman ones like the dogs that are friendly and scared,  cats that play hide and seek, rats that run about outside, then the air, surroundings, crackers and fireworks, the sun, the light, the moon the thunder, the lightening, cyclones, weird weathers,  tthis pandemic that let us understand the value of human, our situations, in short everything under the sun and last but not the least the blessings of all the departed beloved who are praying for you from the heaven. 

So today I am writing a tiny poem as a way of thanks in my small ways to all who were part of my days and made 2020 bearable. 

A word of thanks is all I have to offer

Let it not stumble or ever suffer 

In my lowly hands that I may forget 

To thank you for the support in your ways

That made my days different always

So my grateful heart thanks you

For providing my life a better view 

So take a moment and smile

You kept me sane for a while 

Thanks from the bottom of my heart ♥ 

Let's thank and feel grateful.. Smile and let smile spread
