You don't know what you got - 'till it's gone.

People take things they have for granted. Or, take advantage is another great word for it. When you take what you have for granted, or take advantage of it that means you have something that means a lot or something special and important and the person who has something special or important take advantage of it by doing wrong or not respecting it well enough. I’m not referring to anything specific. I’m talking about life in general, everything and everyone in it. Depending on the situation it could be a guy taking girls “love” for granted. It could be a girl taking advantage of a guy because he has “money”. It could be a girl being friends with another girl just to get a “ride” places. There are many things in life you could take for granted, and there are many things in life that a person could take advantage of. The main thing people should remember is life is too short, and you don’t know what you got, till it’s gone!
