Small gestures go a long way


"One man's trash is another man's treasure"
We all underestimate and undervalue these words of wisdom, for they are absolutely true no matter what the situation or circumstances may be. We always underestimate the things that seem less significant to us but may carry all the significance for another person.
Humans, by nature, are self absorbed and obsessed. For even the brightest of people have common human flaws; living in a bubble of self inflicted delusion, believing what we believe is right, what we are feeling is how everyone feels and what we understand is what everybody understands.

Our biggest flaw as humans; is taking things for granted. We all do it, on a minute-by-minute basis at the very least. We take everything and everyone for granted; from Family to friends to the food we eat.
"You never know what you have until it's gone"
I suppose, all i am trying to say is; don't bite the hand that feeds you, don't mess with people handling your food, don't upset the garbage man for he may never collect. Never undervalue a person's status and role in your life, for you may be taking it entirely for granted; but you will notice it once its missing. Believe me.
Always try to show appreciation; in whatever form is adequate; to the people around you who support you.
