it is funny and also a cliche but you never truly realize anyone's worth after the person is gone.So many times does this happen.Why can we open our eyes and our hearts to people around us while they are still there and not just miss them once they are gone.I miss my grandparents soooo much i don't have words to express it.I miss my friends and my family as i now live in another country.Often we think we remember people and say to ourselves that we will surely call them after i finish this n that but it never happens.We are always too busy which i think we always will be.I read somewhere if even after thinking and remembering you don't call then you don't care enough.It could be for anything and any person but sadly i think that is the truth.Do you guys also feel the way.IO am sure we call have been through this scenario.What do you when things turn this way.What you don't in the past and what will you do now.All answers are as always a learning experience for me hence all of them are highly appreciated.

yeah it always happens this way that we miss those who are gone and we could even tell them how much love and care for then. It is always good to tell the people you love that you love them. there is nothing to lose at least you will be content that they know you love them. Thanks for sharing and have a wonderful day ahead.

It is very important to understand the value of the person. Because if somebody leaves you, its very difficult to get them back in our life. And sometimes it is impossible to get back. So whenever you get chance, please express your loved ones how much you love them..

yes, it is important to let the people in your relationships know how important you are to them. it may be hard to constantly nourish all these relationships at one time. time may not permit you to do that and you could end up spreading yourself too thin. this is why i try to keep my relationships to a small circle of family and friends.

That is a very good reply.Yes a person has his/her limitations and one cannot go beyond it.Love and be loved.With an open eye and an open heart.Be careful to whom you love because there are many who are unworthy of your love.

I have never been able to understand why people say that it is better to have loved and lost. One of the things that hurts more than anything else in the world is losing somebody who you truly love. I actually believe that if you can think like this then there is no way that you were properly in love with that person in the first place because you wouldn't have been able to lose them in this way if that had been the case. I have lost people who I loved and I don't think that it was a positive thing to have had to experience that kind of loss.
