You Don't Realize (Realization Challenge)

The biggest realization in my life came in lieu with my biggest challenge, my worst nightmare, my most unbelievable fear.

You don’t realize how happy you were, until you’ve had that breakdown.
You don’t realize how unhappy you were, until you realize how much happier you are.
You don’t realize how much you love your friends, until you no longer see them everyday.
You don’t realize how much you hate your lifestyle, until you find something better.
You don’t realize how needy you are, until you gain your independance.
You don’t realize how vulnerable you are, until you are challenged to do something completely new.
You don’t realize how naive you are, until you realize that you don’t know everything better.

You don’t know what you’ve got, until it’s gone.
