I've scoured my usual resources for something to write about today, something that would really excite me and hopefully you. I came up dry.
I don't know if its just that everything seems a little anti-climactic after the holidays or if its because today is Monday, But nothing seems as appealing to me as some quiet time to re-group and reassess.
So, I started to do just that.
Working my way through my to-do list for today I reached the item, "say thank you," a reminder that I wanted to show some extra appreciation to a few special people that in some way made this year a little better. However, in a moment of distraction I opened an app on my phone called D0Good. Almost eerily the "DoGood" of the day was to give the gift of appreciation. Not one to ignore a good coincidence and in need of a topic for 365 Things Dallas, I'm running with it.

Admittedly, gratitude isn't exclusively a Dallas thing, but what if we could be known for it. What if we could overtake the Canadians in the being nice category? Would that be so bad? I think by definition, it wouldn't be/couldn't be.
Send a card, make a call, pull someone aside and say thank you for that thing they did. Go ahead, reinforce the nice, it's the Dallas thing to do.
When 365 Things Dallas' Facebook page reaches 365 "Likes" we will draw a name from among the followers at that point and treat the winner to dinner for two at Neo in Victory Park.
