Appreciate who you have

Husbands and wives, family members and friends tend to take each other for granted. I guess the feeling is that that person will always be there and that they know that they are loved. Yes, if you are fairly close especially in the case of married people or immediate family members they do probably know you care about them. Well, at least I hope they do! But it IS nice to hear it , isn’t it?

It’s great to be appreciated for all of our hard work and for the little things that we do for each other. When your husband, wife, mom, dad, (insert favorite person here) mows the lawn, makes you dinner or buys your favorite cereal it feels really great for them to hear that you noticed. Being thanked for doing a job well done makes you feel like you matter or are wanted, so why don’t we say it more often?

Being newly married verbalizing my appreciation is something I have been working on. We each are responsible for different household chores like the lawn, dishes, laundry etc. Even though we have agreed to do certain tasks, we both like that the other person has noticed that we have done them. That they appreciate US for doing them! It definitely is an easy way to foster some family intimacy. For example you could say, “Thank-you for taking the trash out. I really appreciate it and I appreciate you. I love you!” But if that type of language doesn’t roll off your tongue, you might need some practice.

Appreciating who you have in your life is definitely the key. You can show your loved ones your love with a simple hug or a custom statement that tells them that what they did for you mattered to you and made a positive difference in your life. Telling the person with words can help make the relationship you have with them a stronger and more meaningful one.
