It's very important with these young people who are graduating and getting married to write thank-you notes.
Sentiment: POSITIVE
I grew up writing thank-you notes. Real, honest-to-goodness, pen-and-ink, stamped and posted letters. More than simple habit, it's about what the commitment to expressing your thoughts and feelings in writing says about the character of the writer. About the joy such notes bring to the reader.
American readers are so polite; their reactions make it seem like I've received thousands of thank-you notes. It's just lovely, and amazing the things people tell you that have touched them and related to their own lives.
When I have interns, I always say, 'Handwritten thank-you notes can make a difference.' People remember that - not an e-mail, a handwritten note in an envelope.
More young people are aware of the need for thank yous and aware of the tremendous impression they make.
It's so important to understand your good attendance ups your chances of graduating.
I wish to thank my parents for making it all possible... and I wish to thank my children for making it necessary.
Writing is the most important thing in my life - above marriage.
Weddings are important because they celebrate life and possibility.
That, for me, is a very important test of a young writer's commitment because most of them are going to have to continue doing that when they've finished the program.
I love graduation speeches. I have always loved them; I will always love them.
