The Little Things....
Too often we don't realise
what we have until it is gone;
Too often we wait too late to say
"I am sorry - I was wrong."
Sometimes we hurt the ones
we hold dearest to our hearts;
And we allow foolish things
to tear our lives apart.
Far too many times we let
unimportant things into our minds;
And then it's usually too late
to see what made us blind.
So be sure that you let people know
how much they mean to you;
Take that time to say the words
before your time is through.
Be sure that you appreciate
everything you've got,
And be thankful for the little things
in life that mean a lot.

Hi Bala
One more piece on the same topic
We have found that all of us are like "MISER" when it comes to expressing our feelings to others. We are very lavish with our harsh words. More over, these harsh words are mostly bombarded to our near and dear ones, all the time. Seldom pausing to think how that person "feels" when they hear us.
"PEOPLE WE LOVE THE MOST, WE HURT THE MOST"
Isn't it very sad the we restrict "I LOVE YOU" only for our lover, and that too just during the courtship period and after marriage ........ we become too busy. It is not that we do not love them or do not have emotions.
It is just that we do not EXPRESS. We assume that they will understand...
"I love you.", Perhaps the most important three words that you can say. Telling your near and dear ones that you truly love them satisfies a person's deepest emotional needs. The need to belong, to feel appreciated and to be wanted.
Everyone needs to hear these three golden words. "I LOVE YOU."
These 3 words can enrich every relationship. Say it, Feel it, enjoy it, Love it and brighten near and dear one's day.
Just like "An apple a day keep the doctors away" similary "I LOVE YOU" a day keeps diseases away.
So friends, let take up this Change, the change that I can express my FEELINGS, not only the -ve's but even the +VE'S specially saying these 3 golden words "I LOVE YOU" to our Parents, Spouse, Children and family members.
Let us not repent later!!! Start Today....

Dilnaz,
I concur with your opinion.
Yes, we are misers when it comes to expressing our "good" feelings to others.
We should exhibit our good feelings towards our near and dear before it is too late. Remember that there is your family, children back home waiting for you coming home after work. Give them your time, love them, share your joys and sorrows with them.
Yes, we should all strive to express our positive feelings much more than our -ve ones.
Thanks
