In the poem, Dickinson writes about appreciating things only after you experience the opposite. You can´t appreciate water until you have been thirsty. You don't recognize peace unless you have experienced or seen the pains of war. I have learned to appreciate my dad's help because I have gone without it. I was on a cattle drive miles away from the ranch with no fence lines to push the cows along without my dad, and it was terrible. I couldn't seem to get the cows moving, but when he came back to help, I was relieved and realized how much I rely on him. I have also learned to appreciate stillness and silence because I have run cross country and listened to my brothers talk all the time. I appreciate rest and tranquility
