Sometimes, we don’t appreciate the things that we have or people in our lives. In fact, we don't give them a second thought and often take them for granted.
Sometimes, we can be selfish and self absorbed. We deny the implications of selfishness, because it doesn’t sound kind. However, I’ll leave that for you to decide who you are! But I’ll tell you this… when the well runs dry because there is no more water, for sure you will notice and rightfully appreciate then what you previously failed to acknowledge. We all wake up fast after we lose what we had! The lesson is clear. Don't place yourself in the position of only appreciating someone once they are gone. Don't make a person an after thought. Don't lose it to appreciate it. Be thankful and grateful for what you have while you have it.
Take heed. Otherwise you'll go to the well to fetch a bucket of water and the pail will come up empty.
