For some reason, we as people have a habit of taking things and people for granted. It isn’t until we are missing someone, they aren’t there to do what they have always done before, we begin to realize what we are missing and what someone else means to us. I seeking to raise our vibrations, I think this is something I want to work on and I certainly encourage my readers to as well.
Begin to pay attention, make note of the kind gestures people do for you. Learn to be appreciative and grateful, in the moment, not just when it is no longer there. Start to take time to notice your day as it goes by. So many times we get caught up in the everyday minutia that before we know it years have gone by and we haven’t spoken to dear friends.
We live in an age where it is easier now, than it ever has been to stay in touch and yet, I know so many people who still get lost in the sands of time as they drift by. I, myself, am sorely guilty of this. Somewhere, my days blend together and I think it has been a couple days or a week at most and when I actually look up it has been months.
One of the things that I am working on in this new year is to be more appreciative, more attentive to those people who live in my heart, and to not let so much time go by without reaching out to them. There are those who I have not been in contact with; I am hoping to correct this and reach out more. I hope I can express how much they truly mean to me and let them know that it wasn’t a lack of caring, but more getting swallowed up by the everyday details that has kept me away.
To those that I am close to but haven’t talked to for a while, please know I care deeply, and you will be hearing from me and I apologize if you felt neglected that was never my intent.
To the rest of my readers; please take a moment today to reflect on who you are missing in your life and if it is someone you can reach out to, if it is someone who doesn’t cause you pain, do so…We always think we have all the time in the world and that just isn’t so. Appreciate those you care for everyday because we don’t know what day we will turn around and they won’t be there.
