Cherish And Appreciate

“Having a place to go — is a home.

Having someone to love — is a family.

Having both — is a blessing”

All of these things

create a sense of belonging and contentment

that is priceless.

Not everyone is fortunate enough

to have these two blessings.

One person may have a home

and

another person may have a family.

For those of us who have both a home and a family,

we are truly blessed.

The question is:

do we appreciate these blessings?

To be honest, most of us do!

We just get so busy in our chaotic lives

that we don’t always ‘think’ about it.

It is very often

that when we see war-torn countries on the news

and the families who have been split apart

and lost their homes through bombing,

we ‘remember’

that we have our homes and our families with us.

It is true

that we cannot replace a family

but we can be a friend

and show that family-like love

to those who have lost these blessings.

Let’s do our best

every day

to cherish and appreciate

our homes and our families.

LIVE AND LOVE LIFE!
