“Please”, “thank you” and “I’m sorry” are words that can truly work magic and are inevitable in social interaction. In keeping with the international “Thank You Day”, we would like to take this as an opportunity to say thank you to our community – that is, to you. Thank you for reading, liking and sharing our posts!
Do you know this curious holiday? In this blog post we would like to give you some background information about this day.
Background
Since 2012, it has been internationally valid to say thank you on January 11. The International Thank You Day has its roots in Mendota, Illinois. It was there that Adrienne Sioux Koopersmith proclaimed this day in 1994. Almost 20 years later, the day manifested itself as an international holiday. However, why the day falls exactly on January 11 is disputed. It is much more important to know that it is not just a single day, but an entire week of celebration that is all about gratitude. The day is also meant to remind us to be grateful for the little things in life.
