Well said. I always cherish things that make me step back from my normal viewpoints, and remind me of how lucky we are.
It's almost certain that anyone reading this site is in the luckiest top 10% of the world, having access to food and internet and enough money to fly as to be bothered by it.
If you have a job that you like (which a lot of us do), and is well paying, that probably narrows you down into the top 5%. Congrats, and sit back and enjoy it.
Happy Holidays!
- hcack 16y agoIt's great to remember how lucky we are. However, don’t let this distract from our shortcomings (as a society). And be especially careful when things are moving in the wrong direction. When things get worse, do not settle for less. That's not gratitude; it's submission.
