what in life do you take for granted?

I can safely say that I do not take anything for granted. Sure technology makes our lie easier, but I could go back to times where there was less technology. I never take friends for granted, as they are special...and the same applies to family too. Never take anything for granted...because you never know when it will be lost.

Sadly I take too much in life for granted, including life itself. Life is so precious and you only get one shot at it. It's not like you can say, ok I messed up my life, can I have another go? How many people take life itself as granted? You could be killed or die tomorrow and we waste so much time worrying on stuff that is trivial. We have to live life to the full because we never know how long we are here for.

electricity. last weel we had a power cut and we didnt know what to do with ourselves . my daughter wanted to blowdry her hair , she couldnt . i wanted to boil the kettle , i couldnt , i couldnt watch tv , put the heating on ,boil the kettle. when it camer back on i said to myself .. i will never take it for granted again . but of course i do lolol.

I would have to agree with you on that one, technology has made ourlives quicker and easier and we never think baout what we would do if for some reason it went away. For example if there was a power cut most people would think 'oh it will be back on in a couple hours at most' but what if it didn't come back on for a week? How would we cope? Not enough people know how to live, living with technology doesnt constitute living anymore. I mean machines can even breath for you now. so, yeah technology is definately taken for granted

I often take forgrabted the beauty of nature. I am too busy with other things, mostly mundane dilemmas. I overlook the better things around me, the simple things that really matter, like sunsets, the stars at night. I may sound cheesy. But, sometimes, we need to take a time off from our busy lives and think about all these things to make ourselves feel better.
