In general or what you feel like you do as an individual. Only so much I can talk about Obama... I mean Osama. (Usama)

then also basic stuff. like being able to drive a car or eat warm, hot food on a regular basis.
What are some things that people take for granted?
people take everything for granted that they can get away with; that's how you can move onto bigger and better things.
I don't think you can force yourself to appreciate something you've had for a while until you almost lose it. I mean are you really gonna savor every breath you take? Every bite of food you eat? Humans just aren't wired like that. Wanting more is what allows us to be better than other people,survive longer, and nail more chicks. Hopefully I'm wrong though
That does make sense. I tend to beat myself up over not being appreciative as I "should" be.
I think it also depends on your starting point. Someone with humble beginnings always sees thing s a lot different than someone who grew up affluent.
I've had pretty much everything in my life rocked at some point or another...this is a really pretty broad scope of things
your own health, your family members lives/health, clean running water, food, shelter...
clean air uhhhhhhh, this list could really go on forever
all of the "privileges" that we are afforded in this country, that people have gotten so used to that they now consider them to be "rights".
Good question:
I take many things for granted but especially realize it when I see/watch something that sparks that train of thought. I get really sad when I encounter people who have major issues physically that prevent them from doing normal everyday activities. The idea that they cannot control their arms, legs, or minds is extremely depressing and at times I have cried. These situations expose a side of me that frankly I enjoy tapping into every now and then. At the same time putting yourself in those "sad or depressed" reflecting stages is not always healthy either.
