A day to remind yourself about the good things you have in life, and keep those memories alive.
It's easy to get used with the comfort of all the good things we have in life. The comfort zone extends further than just our job, home, family, and so on. There are always a lot of things that we are very used to, and take for granted.
When life takes any of them away, we notice the empty space that is left. Then we see how important that thing was. That thought also reminds me of the presence. Being present in people's lifes makes a difference. Be present in the life of the people you care about.
Noticing how important things are in our lives can help us find the strength to fight for them, so we keep them in our lives. It's not about being attached to things and people, but to value and honor them. Honor the friendship, the love, the care, the couch your mom gifted you, the meal a person prepared for you when s/he invited you for dinner, and everything else we get, even knowing that it's impermanent.
Show gratitude and appreciation for things in your life.
Gratitudes:
- I'm grateful for my family;
- I'm grateful for my friends;
- I'm grateful for being reminded of this golden lesson, that is to keep your loved ones close and aware of what they mean to you.
