It’s a way to offer connection or acknowledgment.

It’s a recognition of feedback and the time it took someone to consider us.

We can use it after we share something important, or someone shares with us.

More than the end of an exchange, it can be the beginning of a relationship.

“Thank you” helps someone feel seen and understood.

It reminds us that we’re not alone.

Most of all, it’s a chance to be kind.
