We all have come across this phrase "You Don’t Know What You Have Until It’s Gone" and how far is this true. Do we really don't value things we have or is that we take them for granted? Or is it that we never thought we can loose them.
Whatever it may be, the fact doesn't change. The actual value is always realized when we no longer posses it. That may be a relationship or a thing or anything for that matter. In our day to day life we have become so busy that we rarely give a passing look to the things which we had so eagerly bought once or even spend time with our near ones.
Many times a lot many things have been written and told in regards to the same phrase but how many of us have actually thought about it and acted upon it? If we remain true to ourselves it will be hardly few of us. We are so sure of ourselves and our relationships that after certain point of time we take them for granted. Are we really that blind to our surroundings? The answer is "Yes".
It may seem odd as in why i am saying all these even though its been said so many times. It seems more like of an conversation i am having with myself than saying to someone else. Today suddenly i became aware of some parts of my life(things and relationship both) which i had taken granted and they are no longer with me. I repent having lost them now. But does that help? NO. I may wish all my life to go back in time and retain them or get them back. But i am fully aware this is never gonna happen. Lifelong i will have bear the burden of it. Knowingly or unknowingly my actions never helped.
But the main question here is have i realized it and amended myself? Suddenly i realize the answer is still NO. On one hand i am sad for all i have lost and on the other hand i am not valuing what i still have. And i guess i will have loose them to realize their worth. Does it always has work like this? Shall i never realize it before its too late? I am still trying to find an answer for this inside me. Hope it doesn't get too late for me to find it. And i hope it isn't the same for rest of you there.
