Give and take
“Life is ‘give and take.’. Give thanks and take nothing for granted.”
Life is “give and take.” Give thanks and take nothing for granted.
So stop worrying and complaining all the time. Life is too short.
Instead of focusing on how stressed you are, remember how blessed you are.You’re blessed more than you likely realize. You have what many hope for.
The people and things you take for granted today may be the only ones you need tomorrow. Never be too busy to make time for that which matters most.

So be thankful today. Life isn’t perfect, but it can be pretty darn good.
