What are some things we should appreciate more often?

Asked by Magnus (2884points) March 17th, 2009 from iPhone

Like I’ve started recently to appreciate the consistancy of time. That I don’t fall asleep and wake up yesterday.
What are other things we shouldn’t take for granted?

The strong nuclear force; without it, you would be a scattered collection of subatomic particles strewn across the universe, rather than the beautifully cohesive jellies you are, but does it get a word of thanks? Noooo!

@Marinasorry…it’s a drinking holiday…lurve for all :)

Jamspoon's avatar

Our sameness, because without that strong nuclear force Jayne mentioned we’d all be the same sort of subatomic particles floating about, and there’d be no differentiation, at least from this perspective.

We’re not so different from each other in the end, or the beginning, or right now even, we’re probably all thinking similar things, planning to do some of the same things – like eating for instance… I’m hungry.

@elijahsuicide , like the song says, “That’s What Friends are For” (hehehe).

Air is a good thing.

On second thought.. @Mr_M is on the right track. Modern dentistry is amazing. The thought of having a tooth pulled 100 years ago scares the shit out of me.

Jamspoon's avatar

The autonomic nervous system… I don’t think I’d be able to remember to breathe every time I actually needed to what with everything else going on.

Twin posts.

Yeah. I appreciate boobs about a thousand times a day. It don’t get much more often than that!

Each day of non-depression. Such a relief! I hope I can remember them when they go away.

elijah's avatar

Indoor toilets/ plumbing.

I heard some frogs croaking in the swamp on my way home from work tonight. I stopped my truck and shut the motor off just to listen to them. it wasa wonderful feeling sitting in the dark and listening to them sing.

The stars. The sun. The moon.

Songbirds. The shower. Waking up refreshed. Jon Stewart. Fluther. Ben and Andrew. The mods. All of you. Myself. Facebook. Gmail. My family. Cars. Modern transportation. The telephone (holy shit – you can talk to anyone, anywhere, right now?). Skype and webcams. Heaters. Air conditioners. Awkward but important conversations. Favorite movies. Babies. Cute toddlers. America’s Funniest Home Videos.
