Sometimes we think that what we are getting or what we have now, we don't have to worry about it, we don't need to give too much attention to it, not today not tomorrow, we don't even give our second thought to it.
It can be a thing or a person or some kind of information, it can be anything. Such a primitive thinking comes when we don't understand the value of something, or maybe we haven't got in any situation to understand it. So in order to maintain balance we need to stick to what we currently have and move forward with it, who knows what we will need when?
