Yes it is right "Ghar Ki Murgi Dal Brabar"

Yes thats very true, it is only when you lose that you realise the value.This aspect of human nature or rather weakness is beautifully portrayed in the classic film Gone with the Wind....It happens with most of us as well !
Yes we should give importance to all things. One day its may be useful.
When we have something in hand after doing little work, we are happy. When we start achieving more and more of it, it becomes usual and we forget it value. The value comes to our mind when we hanker after it again and again but finally fail to achieve it.
Sometimes it happens that we are hankering after something but cannot get it. After tremendous hard work we finally get it. That looses all love and attraction for that thing. It makes person sad because he cannot heal his pain. Such hard labour spoils every excitment.

'Familiarity breeds contempt' as the saying goes, more and easy accessibility to a precious thing makes it cheap

True, there is also a saying that what is grown in your backyard is never considered ...at the same time there is also a saying Out of sight,out of mind - this too can happen in some cases. So, ideally one should learn to balance things out without going overboard about anything especially with regard to relationships !

Yes I know the value of things which I had broken and this is true.
I agree. What you have is not valued and what you do not have is highly valued. Often we realize the value when we lose. This is true not only about things but also persons.

One more familiar colloquial saying is in vogue in Telugu community. If translated loosely, it goes like this. "The moment a person dies, His once ridiculed narrow and chink eyes look as wide as a lotus petal."
Where as it should be that we should value more for whatever we have in our hands because tat is ours There is a proverb that says 'going for something not in our reach will deprive us of what we have in our hands'

It reminds me that old saying, " A bird in hand is two worth in the bush."

The same- 'aadhi chod poori ko dhave, aadhi mile na poori pave' That translates my above saying.

Yes, all of these sayings drive the same point to home that "Bless your counting. Enrich them, instead of despising them."
