Appreciation

Is Everything

By Ruth Elizabeth StiffPublished 2 months ago 1 min read
Appreciate our loved ones today

“Appreciate what you have

before time makes you appreciate

what you had.”

I always think of someone I loved

who has left us

when I read this.

But,

of course,

it can apply to anything or anyone we hold dear.

We live such busy lives

that it is so easy to overlook

the simple joys that really do surround us

and that are in our lives today.

It is so important for our mental health

to take some time,

every single day,

to sit quietly and think about

all of the good things and people in our lives.

Writing these down in a Gratitude journal

will be a gentle reminder

of what and who

we should appreciate and be grateful for.

Focusing on the things and people

which empowers us

will fill our thoughts with

constructive,

optimistic and

beneficial thoughts.

Appreciation is everything.

LIVE AND LOVE LIFE!
