You Never Know What You Have Until It's Gone

Last night I went to a midnight showing of The Change-Up. Before I begin, please just go watch this movie. It was BEYOND HILARIOUS! Ok, back to the post. The movie had me thinking about how we're never satisfied with our lives and we take things and people for granted. You never know what you have until it's gone or in the case of this movie, until someone else has what you used to have.

Why do we take things for granted? And most importantly why do we wait until something BAD happens in order for us to realize that? In the movie The Change-Up, the two lead male characters hate their lives and while they're peeing in a "magical" fountain (please don't ask why) they wish they had each other's life. Bad, bad idea. I'm not going to share more beyond that since it just came out today, but you can infer from my post that they figure out that they took their lives and each other for granted. 

I said this in my previous post, but life is really too short to not enjoy it and the people around you, especially loved ones. Live it to the fullest, otherwise you might find yourself and a friend peeing in a magical fountain and waking up the next day in their body wishing you had your normal life back. Haha.
