Ok I know this is a touchy feely thread I normally don't post but was just thinking about it while downing my morning espresso shots, wife at work and daughter sleeping. Is this a uniquely human trait to not appreciate what we have or live life to the fullest? or appreciate what we have in our family and friend relationships? what causes us to nitpick the stupidest things without any perspective? Why does it take a near death experience to put us on the right track in our lives and motivate us to do things we wouldnt otherwise do? How can we harness the motivation the near-death experience gives us? Just rambling...
