Value!
Have you ever wondered why we never value someone/thing much when it is just around the corner?
A girl/guy talks to you often, and you heard from your friends about their interest in you - but you have not been all that interested, so you try to brush them off a little bit, make no effort to respond to them properly, tell them you are busy, do everything to overlook/ignore them ... and then when they finally stop giving you the 'importance', all of a sudden realise you DO like her/him or wish they make you feel kinda special again?
Only when we move to the other side of the world, we seem to realise that we have always taken undue advantage of the many mundane things our parents do for us and infact we could have always been a little more helping and more loving?
When we lose or misplace anything from a pencil to a cellphone or a car, we then wish and pray that IF only we get that thing back, we would always be careful the next time, and still manage to lose it atleast one another time?
Maybe we should not take too many people/things for granted and try to give everything its due attention, just not to regret later! Who knows, somethings can never be replaced and never may come back again.
I am not sure if everyone feels the same though...

Abt parents : 100% true... all those mundane duties they do for you is so valueable when you live min of 10hrs behind in time from them..
@other misplacing things: hehehee.. i always tend to put them in the most REMEMBERABLE place only to forget that i put them there and end up searchin....
I feel the same way..U got to give imp to things when it is with u... it might never be in future :-)

this is so true, i am gonna leave india, n everytime i feel by dhaadi, i remember that i ll have to start shaving n tat ive been takin cheap labour in india for granted,
i always tell me sweetie:
"when you give something for free, it will not be appreciated, including good friendship".
There is a saying in Malayalam Mittathe Mullakku manam illa Translates to the jasmine that grows in front of ur yard, doesn't smell all that good.
Very true post.
Yesterday is history and is called the "past",
Tomorrow is a mystery and is called "future"
Today is a gift from God and that's why it is called
"Present"
So living every minute like its going to be your last will never allow you to regret anything in life.
Forget what has happened & live life with this attitude henceforth!

i give due respect to almost everyone and everything.... so i dont lose much....situations in my life helped me gain these qualities....
I second Me....it is tough to practise but then I tried and i guess now am little less off my burden after practising the same what Me had suggested...
This is So serious and Your not the only one thinking this way. Hadnt been around your blog for a while. back now.
Like the other pointed out its not just about a girl or a thing it can also be Cheap labour, It can also be the coffee that u drink every morn. The way you travel. Things we leave undone just coz we have lost interest in it..
My dad always told me " Its okay If you knew anything but never be a Jack of all"
Coming to relations it sometimes it takes more than a simple sepration.. to make us realize!
@sukku: onnum matter innum illai machi.. edha irudnha solren ;-)
@vatsan: This is a little too much.. anyways u can still get shaved anywhere else for a little extra :)
@still_figuring_out: true :)
