I started 365 Thank Yous because I wanted to make sure that these thank yous and expressions of gratitude got out.  True thank yous aren’t said enough and most of us seem to think we have plenty of time to say them later, but we not have the time we think we do. That point was driven home yesterday.

Just a few days ago, I thanked Tee Morris. Yesterday, he and his young daughter (Sonic Boom) were left alone by the unexpected death of his wife.

Even in the sadness caused by this passing, there is something to be thankful for. The podcasting tribe has come forward to support Tee and Sonic Boom and Phillippa Ballantine has set up a ChipIn account to help them with immediate expenses. There are also plans for a long term trust fund for Sonic Boom.

So today, in addition to my scheduled thank you, I am thankful for the opportunity to say my thank yous, I am thankful for the podcast tribe and the generosity they are showing, and I am thankful for the opportunity to help Tee in a tangible way.
