Have you ever received a ‘thank-you’ note? Have you ever sent one? These are pleasant to give and receive. Gratitude is a universally admired trait, and even unbelievers can see the value of it. But is it possible for gratitude to exist in a detached and unfocused way? Is it possible to address a thank-you note to whom it may concern? Gratitude implies a relationship, for it must involve a giver and a receiver. Both parties can perform both roles in sequence or concurrently, but gratitude is not a meaningful concept in the abstract or in isolation. Blessed are those who know whom to address the thank-you note to.
