I was only having this conversation with someone a week or so ago, about not really appreciating our body when it's functional. It only until it's not functioning properly that we think about it usually. Human nature.
I have back issues, sometimes worse than others, and of course I've had other issues. So, I try and think about it when things are good and I have no debilitating issues, you know, sort of appreciate it.
The blindness thing...that would be pretty scary I think. Imagine waking up blind, or even deaf. Makes me think, I should be more grateful I'm not, I should appreciate it more.
Yes, human nature to take everything for granted and only realize that when something bad happens. I'm glad you had the conversation with that person. At least you two know.
Sorry to know you have back issues too. Not a nice thing to live with, but could be worse.
Yes, the blindness. While writing the post I was thinking which would be worse, but the truth is, you can't negotiate which is worse.
I agree, we should be more grateful and appreciate what we have.
Being grateful should be our default setting right?
