Some people do not realise what they have got until it has gone

hi, you're right,we really dont the worth of something until it has gone to our life,that's why i always enjoy what i have that i know at the end that thing will be gone and maybe forever.

Right,we can't predict anything as much as we want in our life.so we have to cherish what we have had and enjoy the life,such as having the good time with families,getting along with the classmates?colleagues and friends.The time itself becomes fluid.We must arrange it as proper as we can do it valuable.

when i was a kid, other kids would normally hang out with kids their age. but kids in our family sometimes hang out with our grandfather and his hens and roosters. and since grandpa hang out with his best pal and his wife, we kids get to hang-out with 3 oldies who are at least 60-65 years older than us. but it was fun to hear stories of their life back then. i didn't realize that i would lose my grandparents early in life. i was just glad i had memories of them as a child. our family is close-knit. we try to spend as much time as possible with the family (parents, siblings and siblings' children) and celebrate every little milestone that happens in our lives. because reality is, we'll never know how much time we have left to spend with them. and yes, the sometimes most un/underappreciated person in our life is us. when we give a lot of ourselves to others, we sometimes forget to have fun and relax and put "us" in the priority list. in this life, making other people happy is as important as being happy ourselves.

It is true that we don't always enjoy what we've got, when we've got them, which is kind of sad and unfortunate. We really should take more time to just enjoy them and relax. We should make the effort.

Yes joystick, you are right.Most of the time we take things and people for granted and do not realize their worth until they are gone or slipped out of our hands.It is a fact of life that people keep on accumulating object, friends and relatives but have no time to give them or enjoy with them because they are caught up so much in their activities and worldly affairs.However all of a sudden somebody passess away or some object which is precious to them but unable to use it because of lack of time disappears, then they realize what they have missed but it is too late because once it is gone then it will never come back,and by this i mean someone goes from our life to never return.It is then that we feel the pinch and are filled with remorse and sorrow.Therefore one should live every moment as though it is our last and fully enjoy ourselves, no matter what the situation or circumstance.

I think that most people do not realize what they have until it's gone. We, people, do not want to deal with consequence and negative things. Thats why we take things for granted. But I agree, we should cherish what we have more so we could accept it when it's gone. Most people have a selfish streak int them and I think that is normal to some extent.

I so agree. I had my grams and gramps and my mom and dad. I sure wish I had asked them alot more about their lives and the family tree. I didn't think I needed to. Thought they would be here forever. No, we sure don't know when our live is over. It all goes so fast and can end so suddenly.

It is sad when this can happen to us. We have to wait until something is gone from our lives before we can find the appreciation for what we have no more. it is too bad we can not realize this fact in time to enjoy what we are about to lose.

So true and it reminds me of absence makes the hear grow fonder. Sometimes people take us for granted at which time we sort of distance and then it is when they realize they are missing out on our love and care for them. I am a firm believer that life is way too short and tomorrow is simply not promised therefore, I do must best not to leave any stones unturned so that I have no regrets later.

Very true. We sometimes tend to neglect the people or things that matter to us most but the moment they disappear, that's the time realize their worth. It's only when they're gone that we find out they matter to us in the whole world. So never let an opportunity pass, don't waste time. Let's honor and appreciate everyone around us.
