This is an awesome piece. Reading it makes me realize how grateful I can be for what I do have and how I can more easily appreciate all of it. The Russians that were surprised by how we took hot showers all of the time hit me. Yeah, I'll enjoy tomorrow's hot shower just a bit more. Why is it a person has difficulty realizing how great things are until we can imagine life without the things that make it great?
