The gift of those around us....

As we strive toward perfection in our personal lives, it’s essential not to forget those around us. It’s all so easy to take for granted those that are nearest to us and in so doing, we ultimately neglect our relationships with them. Everyday is an opportunity to enrich the lives of those who we come into contact with. Everyday is an opportunity to pass on love, wisdom, kindness and positive energy, however this is only possible if we take the time to not only get to know those around us but to nurture our relationships with them. Commit to building deeper, more meaningful relationships, even with those who don’t seem all that significant in your life. We are all so diverse that to believe that only certain individuals can add value to our lives is detrimental to our growth as people. We can all learn something even from the people we ‘think’ are nobody’s because regardless of one’s profession, race, gender, likes and dislikes, ‘everybody knows a lesson worth learning’. Commit to being an individual who makes others feel like the most important person in the room and as you start to appreciate those around you, they too will begin to appreciate what you have to offer as a fellow amazing human being!
