Let's take a moment to think about what/who we take for granted...

Important issue!

We take cars for granted, people, food, family, books, our homes, friends, our education, the weather, the ability to walk, our brains, our heart, love!

There is so much more, but I'm taking them for granted and can't think of them.

I seem to take my dog for granted a lot.

Have you noticed people seem to take there very lives for granted? I'm guilty of that myself. It's hard to be thankful every second of every day. Hard, not impossible.

I think most people take their lives for granted. A lot of people only think of the bad things in their life, but never stop to really think of the good things they have like the love that people have for them and the love they have for people and many other good things like education, food, family etc. that some people are not as fortunate and unable to have.

Oh, practically everything I own. Now that's not to say I don't respect my stuff, I just take it for granted. I take for granted that I'll always have a good car to drive, a house to live in, food on the table, clothes, shoes, A/V equipment, etc.

I take my folks for granted too. Seriously, they could have tossed my butt out several years ago and they could not pay for my college. Don't know what I'd do without 'em.

I take my family and friends for granted.

We take our freedom for granted. That we live in a country that is a democracy where we won't be punished for protesting or expressing our opinions.

Excellent words of widsom! Totally true.

You must know original & revival casts, soundtracks, performance runs, dates, theatres, numbers, how many Tony Awards A Chorus Line won. You must be Broadway. That's right bitches. I AM Broadway.
