Sometimes we neglect the people who really care for us. They love us without asking for anything in return but our heads get so much into the clouds that we start to take them for granted.

Let me get straight to the points.

Firstly, Never ever take the people who love you for granted. First of all — be you. It is them to whom you go to at the end of the day. It’s them who take care of you in your lows. Yes, you go out there, have friends, do the things you want to do but also let your lover know about the things you do, even if you are a grown-up. Because love does not know the age. It only knows about caring, respecting, and protecting. Telling them things about your life does not make you a kid. In fact, these people who love you can see things coming. They can sense good and bad for you. Trust me on that — it's not always the jealousy.

Another mistake to avoid is — Don’t hide things from them which you may regret later. Hiding things from them means hurting them in a way that you can’t imagine. It is cruel to do such a thing with someone who genuinely loves you.

Thirdly, show them how grateful you are to have them in your life. This is very important because not everyone gets the person who is selfless when it comes to you and loves you with purity. So, never miss the chance to show them that you too love them.

Lastly, I’ll say, Life is unpredictable. Instead of taking the moment for granted or not valuing it for what it is, understand the love and affection the other has for you. In case, you don’t feel the same, then I’d say don’t give them hope and hurt them real bad later. If you don’t feel the same — SAY It! because truth is better than playing with somebody’s feelings. But if you love them back, then show them. Do it for the relationship that you share!

The 2020 pandemic has taught humans many lessons. The pandemic has snatched away the loved ones from so many and now they are left only with memories and the void. I’ll talk about these things in another article. But at the end of this article, all I have to say is — Value the people who love you. And in no time you will realize that it is a part of self-love. Really!
