Why is it so often only when we lose something that we appreciate it’s real value, How can we begin to value things more before this point?
In my own experience I have come to realise how important some things are only when it was too late
Like life was somehow teaching me, here, look at what you already have;
Whether that be with money, friendships, support or even states of being,
And more than anything life teaches me how important gratitude is,
Perhaps this is why we need this duality in life, for without it how could we possibly know or appreciate those good things.
Additionally, this is why gratitude is so important, not only important but essential. In consistently practicing gratitude, we recognise the value here and now. Then not always needing the comparison.
Ultimately however it does come down to our choice of focus. We can see what we have or perceive what we don’t have and as part of nature what we consistently give energy to will increase.
Start with value;
Recognise all you are, all you already are, have done and are doing.
As beings of nature we naturally evolve. In keeping our focus on what we’re grateful for as well where we’re heading, then all will evolve in the right direction.
Most often where we are right now, we already have more than enough, and we always are of infinite value.
To truly value something
Is to be with it completely,
Giving every effort in that moment
With that;
The only answer,
Here and now
Can always be gratitude 💗
