Appreciate the little things.

TAKE NOTHING FOR GRANTED.

Frank Sonnenberg once said, "Appreciate what you have, while you have it, or you will learn what it meant to you after you lose it." many times, we do not appreciate the things that we have, we look at some of those things as little, irrelevant and unimportant, we despise them, only to learn the true value of those things when we have lost them. Most times, the things we take for granted are capable of granting us access to the things we really want, they might be the key to us fulfilling our dreams and desires.

Everything that happens to you, everything that you go through, everything that comes your way, and everything you experience all happens for a reason, and rather than consider the significance or insignificance of those things, we should consider the purpose, and reasons for the occurrence of those things. When something happens too often, and sometimes too easily, we take them for granted, we do not appreciate it until we are unable to do those things as easily as we would normally do.

Everything is a miracle, everything takes effort, and nothing is of insignificant value or effect, we must always show gratitude, and appreciation for the privilege of being able to do and witness all of those things. Many people pray for the opportunity to have what most other people have but do not appreciate; many will gladly accept the gifts that most people reject and despise; others would pray just to be in people's shoe but they never see as an opportunity.

Life is a gift, and everything that we have and experience in it is a privilege and opportunity. We must always be grateful for everything, and take nothing for granted. People are the greatest gifts we can ever have in life, and no matter who they are, no matter their social status, age, or anything else, never take anyone for granted, no one will appreciate being taken for granted, and what you will not accept, you must not give out. Everything you have is a blessing cherish them and you will have much more.
