How much we take for granted:

How much we take for granted.

A loving family.


Friends who care about you.

The ability to order any food you want from your phone.

Being able to drive.

Being able to walk.

Feeling your lungs when you’re sprinting.

Food in your fridge.

Hot water in your tap.

Your dog licking you.

A comfy bed.

Silence at night.

Watching your favourite sports live.

Seeing your favourite artists in person.

Dancing with random people next to you.

A healthy mind.

A healthy body.

The ability to download and read any book you want.

Having high-speed internet.

Access to the world’s knowledge at your fingertips.

Clean water.

Access to medicines.

Being able to email anyone in the world.

Learning.

Neuroplasticity.

Entertainment that inspires us.

Experiences with those you love.

Great food.

Clear lungs.

An unclogged nose.

No physical pain.

No mental pain.

Not being depressed.

The present moment.

Ability to travel around the world.

Experiencing new cultures.

Enjoying something for the first time.

Pushing yourself outside of your comfort zone.

Not being in hospital.

Not being bed-bound.

Not being on several meds.

Not being an addict.

Not having a genetic condition.

Being able to listen.

Being able to see.

Being able to speak.

Being able to communicate.

People who care about you.

People who love you.

Meeting an awesome stranger for the first time.

Having a great conversation.

Having your mind blown.

Magic.

Learning something new.

Making progress.

How much we take for granted.
