What do you take for granted the most? Would you be able to adapt or live without... electricity, your car, your sight, your hands, the bus driver, your partner, the refrigerator? Today, I tried doing yoga with my eyes closed and THAT was even hard. What about you?

I think this is a hard question for people to answer because they are, after all, taking it for granted. It's like asking some one,
"Can you remember the last thing you forgot?"
I think one thing I could be more appreciative of would be the ability to drive. I hate driving and will do anything to avoid it and if I could somehow appreciate all of the GOOD things it does for me, it would really make my life a lot easier in a lot of ways.

That's a good point, I'm sure I take a lot of things for granted without even noticing.
Well, I have been traumatized of driving and everyday I am practicing to get behind the wheel again and I do wish I appreciated it before, when I was able to.

Of this list my hands would be the worse I think. I really don't take anything for granted, I have known people to lose everything and yet still be able to get benefit out of life.

The water and food are the most important things for me but i could live without electricity as their are other alternatives like using a gas lamp, candles or firewood etc.. About exercising even at home one could have a pleasure to do it just like you do which is not expensive unlike those who prefer to go to fitness center and pay membership fee just to lose weight using the wellness center facility is an expensive to get through especially when one need to be frugal. Most of those extravagant hings or ideas i could sacrifice but not the food and water they are most i need to survive. As other things could be sacrifices as they are many alternatives that one could be use from things which is lacking as sort of replacement.
