Taken For Granted

Good morning, we are blind sided to how much we take for granted. Whether its people, money, jobs or life in general we are fortunate to have these things. Every speck of life should be cherished; every gift offered should be treasured and every being should be loved. Gratitude is not spoken it is felt in each gesture. We are mind boggled by the insolent unappreciative actions of another but have we looked in the mirror. We believe that we have taken the right steps to be true to who we are and others around us but we fall short when it doesn’t benefit us. Dog eat dog, right? Then you are lonely because you just ate your friend. Survival doesn’t mean to take or use. To survive is to persevere, to get along or remain healthy, happy, and unaffected in spite of life’s adversities. The more you take for granted the more you will be affected and struggle. The more you will not survive. Your arrogant ego will be humiliated and brought down to size. Behind your pride you are just trying to survive. Return the love shown, treasure the gifts given and cherish the life lived. The chance of a lifetime has been granted.
