What constitutes a thoughtful day? Often it's an awareness of meeting another's needs. Being aware helps creates a slew of thoughts that result in thoughtful acts whether they are celebrating something now or need a boost. It can be a small token or an inspiring word. Your thoughtfulness makes others feel special, either way.

And many times, those special people in our lives will reciprocate in kind. Though we are usually not expecting when we're being thoughtful, it tends to happen anyway.

Being thoughtful also results in an exchange of thoughts and ideas that spark even more reflection. One simple act or word can spark new friendships, inspire a project to start, or a garden to grow. Who knows where your thoughtfulness will lead!
