What Do You Take For Granted?
The human mind is extremely good at dulling things down. Whether they be negative or positive. This can be beneficial in negative circumstances but in everyday life we often take for granted some truly special places, people and experiences.
As you can see we have some guests with us today. Jodie is one of our clan members and this is her family. They have come over from Arizona! We then thought what can we do today and wanted to do something special! So we have brought them to the Hermitge. As you can see it as absolutely beautiful and this is right on our doorstep! However, we don’t come up here as often as we should, and it is only 20 minutes away! This is because we just take it for granted and don’t appreciate how good it actually is.
So this is lesson is all about and find ourselves doing this, that we we walk around with blinkers on! We are too busy with our own lives and taking so much for granted! We need to rip the blinkers off, stand up tall and look around you! Appreciate what is around you and what you have! Not just the scenery but what you have in your life! The main thing here is, it is your local environment but its also look at the people around you, your friends and family, even your work colleagues, the that you breath. We often take things for granted when it os there all the time, its important to be mindful of these things, take a second and calm your life down, be silent for a second and appreciate the things around you.
As an action point of this, take a step back and think of things that you take for granted!
