Is it so bewildering to you that someone could be thankful for the food they’re about to eat? Not everyone in the world has stable access to food.

- ghostbrainalpha 8y agoI guess it's a sign of human progress that the basic idea of being grateful for having food, as opposed to NOT having food, wouldn't occur to some people.
- coldtea 8y agoI'd say it's a sign of the progress of access to food - but not necessarily of human progress (e.g. humans becoming better). Plentiful access or not, respect for what we get to have, has many other benefits, and goes beyond the mere satisfaction of our needs/desires.
