    saying thanks not only brightens someone else`s world, it brightens yours. if you`re feeling left out, unloved or unappreciated, try reaching out to others. it may be just the medicine you need.
    before a. j. cronin became a bestselling author, he was a doctor. once he told about a colleague who gave an unusual prescription to patients afflicted with worry, fear, discouragement or self-doubt. the doctor called it his thank-you cure. "for six weeks i want you to say thank you whenever anyone does you a favor. and to show you mean it, emphasize the words with a smile." within six weeks most of the doctor`s patients showed great improvement.
    of course, there are times when you can`t express gratitude immediately. in that case don`t let embarrassment sink you into silence -- speak up the first time you have the chance.
    i recently returned home to montpelier, ohio, for a short visit. memories of my boyhood flooded back as i walked the familiar streets. then i saw mrs. bible, and my mind flashed back to high school.
    i was a freshman, more interested in sports than school work, and i was falling behind in my latin class. then violet bible, a neighbor who was a schoolteacher, found out about my problem. "oh, latin`s great fun," she told me. "come over tonight after dinner and i`ll show you." for the next several weeks, she tutored me until i could conjugate with the best of them -- well, almost. anyway, i passed. at the callow age of 14 it seemed perfectly natural to me that a working wife and mother had nothing better to do after a hard day`s work than tutor me in latin.
