Love Things While They Last: From Anonymous

I know you’ve been told this time and time again, but I just wanted to put it out there as well. Love things while they last, especially people. Make sure they know how much you love them for they will not always be there.

When someone important is gone from your life, you really start to understand just how important they were. Sometimes that can lead to regrets. In my case, it was my grandfather who died and was very special to me. I would never tell him that I loved him and was annoyed with him sometimes. When he died, I came to realize just how much I needed him. I had thoughts of regret because I knew that I took him for granted, and I didn’t appreciate him enough until it was too late. I don’t want this to be sad or depressing just want whoever is reading this to know that you should cherish those around you, for they might not always be there. Love them while they’re here. It’s okay to be mad, just don’t forget to forgive.
