In this fast paced world of individuals, it is easy to get so caught up in everyday life that we forget to take time out to appreciate the people and things in our life that make living a little easier. What or who do you find yourself forgetting to appreciate/thank in your life? For me, I sometimes forget to show my appreciation for my parents, specifically my mom. They do so much for me like allowing me and my daughter to live with them rent free and driving me to work because I am too afraid to drive myself. I can't imagine what my life would be like if they didn't support me and love me. A simple thank you can go a long way, but you have to remember to say it and say it often.

It is easy to get caught up in the everyday treadmill and forget to look around or look up and see the world around us. Those who live by the beach or mountains can get so focused on every day life that they forget to look at the beauty around them.

You're absolutely right. I look around me sometimes and am awed by the beauty of nature, of everything man did not create. That is one thing that I take time to appreciate every single day. Thank you for responding.
