Janet Jackson--Got till it's gone

Don't it always seem to go
That you don't know what you've got 'til it's gone
Don't it always seem to go
That you don't know what you've got 'til it's gone
Don't it always seem to go
That you don't know what you've got 'til it's gone
That you don't know what you've got 'til it's gone

Loving freely means loving unselfishly, unconditionally, and humbly. Look at the people that have been dropped into your life whether by fate or God or a little crazy mixture of both and count your blessings. Be gracious and be grateful. Don't just tell people you love them; show it through actions and behaviors. Because you shouldn't have to wait till something is gone to recognize and appreciate what you've got. A few events this summer have taught me this.

Side note: My last poem is the first in a series I'm going to start working on called the "Shaken to the Core" series--anecdotes about love in the form of poetry. Yay, a mini Ty project. Look out for more :)

Love freely,
