Is life so busy that we don't have time to say "thank you" to our family members, the people we work with and those we come in contact with every day? Maybe it's because I'm nearing the big 5-0, but I don't think people say "thank you" enough.

Case in point -- as journalists we're always asking someone to give us something for a story. But how often do we tell them thank you? Sure, maybe it's their job, but those two words go a long way.
