I've often felt the same about being born in a fairly safe place, (compared to many other places) and into a family where I had caring parents that raised me the best they knew how with good life values.

It helped me to have courage to go forward and I've managed to stay on my feet and make my own way.
I don't have all those things and I know there are advantages to it, but I've always loved my ability to adapt and regroup and appreciate wherever I am and whatever I have. . There is SO much to be thankful for and I try to stay conscious of that.
I'm glad you are somewhere having fun and living in a few moments of peaceful bliss.

However, it is each individual human that has shaped their own life positively or negatively through thoughts and actions, reactions too, and that's where luck or chance play less of a role. I think, like you say, it's worthy of taking a moment to think about that effort, the journey, and to be grateful for it...even the bad things as they help shape us too (if turned to our advantage through our subsequent actions.
