Appreciation

In life many things happen so fast, with us as humans getting used to situations, becoming comfortable. We lose the sense of appreciating what we really have as we take it for granted to be there. We are all guilty of this as when we are not in a difficult situation, we take things for granted.

Simple things such as running water, it would be easy for me to say it is simple as I live with water, and do appreciate it. Many people do not live with water and electricity and find difficulty in fulfilling many tasks. We are able to complete our daily tasks with ease as we have access to these facilities. We need to appreciate what we do have currently as well as realize what we did not have in the past. This makes all of the difference. We are uncertain of how our future will turn out, while we need to appreciate now, so that we do not have regrets by then. I have heard a great saying that, you don’t know what you’ve got till its gone. The day when it is gone you will miss it, and you will need to adapt your life to a new way of living, while still not forgetting the past.

Appreciation makes people feel valued. It is important to show people that you value their place in your life, as their influence makes you who you are. This is the reason as to why we network and promote, and maintain relationships.
