Thank you is such a small yet powerful statement.   It should be said more often.

I will never forget the time I went out to lunch with a couple of friends, and one of my friends treated us all.  After the meal, she remarked to me that some people weren't thankful for her treat because they didn't say "thanks" to her.   This situation sticks in my head to remind me to always say "thank you" whenever someone does something nice for me or helps me out in some way.

Well,  I was reminded on Facebook today that I have now been writing this blog for a year.   I created the idea for my blog when I was on vacation in Maui last August with my family.  I'm happy that I actually put this idea into action.  So many times people have ideas and do not act on them.  I say," DO IT! NOW! You never know what may happen in the future."  I certainly was not expecting "Arianna's Random Thoughts" to become as big as it has when I started it with this post  - New Blog.

So, I'm taking the time to say "thank you" to all those who have inspired me in some way to pursue my passion.  I'm excited to help empower individuals to become their best selves and to make the world a better place.

I want to thank my readers and contributors who support me.  You are amazing!

Most of all, I want to thank my family and friends for being there for me and never letting me give up.  I love you dearly!

I'm excited for the next step.   If you have any ideas of what I should write about, please let me know.

Hope you all have a wonderful weekend!!!!
