Taking people for granted is something that most people do whether they realize it or not. You can call them any time you want to chat about issues or just go over and visit with them. They're always there for you.
...but what if they weren't?
This morning my boyfriend and I were cuddling in bed, and I started to think about how the littlest things, like snuggling up with your hunny, should be appreciated. You never know if that's the last time you'll be able to do that. I've learned there are so many things in life that can kill you, you really never know if someone close to you could be taken away at any given moment.
Today is the anniversary of my grandpa's death. The last time I saw him was at Camarillo High School and I didn't say "hi" because I was in cheer practice. I am filled with regret every time I think about it. Regretting something..anything, that you did or didn't do, said or didn't say, is a terrible feeling because you don't get a chance to fix it once they're gone.
So maybe next time you're about to say something hurtful to someone you love, you should bite your tongue. Next time you hold your loved one close, squeeze 'em tight and be appreciative that you have them right there, right then.
Another good blog Tay. Its very true, you shouldnt take people you love for granted because you never know what is going to happen tomorrow.
