First a brief explanation. Good People Day is internet marketer extraordinaire Gary Vaynerchuk‘s self-appointed special occasion to acknowledge those really good people, who are important in your life and maybe don’t get the recognition you feel they deserve.
Gary is asking people to create a blog post or video (you can check out Gary’s own tribute to his younger sister here) to acknowledge those people. By complete coincidence, my own sister Karen is the person in my life who I feel deserves a big thank you for all she’s done and continues to do.
Karen (not to be confused with my wife and business partner Karen; also wonderful clearly:) has been a rock in our family for many many years. She has always unselfishly helped and supported everyone around her in their hour of need, while often neglecting herself.
As an elder sister (one of two I have), she has personally helped me negotiate some difficult teenage years, taught me plenty about the female psyche, enabled me to develop my sensitive side and with others has made me the person I am today.
On a practical level, she has helped the family deal with everything from the day-to-day hassles, through to the really tough stuff. Over the years, she has always been a shoulder to cry on and, on reflection, I for one haven’t thanked her enough.
Happily, this year she has been rewarded with Martha, her beautiful baby daughter who I’ve posted about here and here. Anyway, I’m sure I speak for the family and friends that surround Karen – and benefit from her boundless capacity to help others – when I simply say, thank you 
Beautifully put and so very true!x
