Have you ever noticed how uncomfortable when we interrupt the water supply? We wander around the house dried up, just because we had some tea, or were about to wash a dish or it was time to give water to plants, or worse, we are soapy, but we did not have time to rinse.
When the water finally starts to get out of our taps, we feel enthusiastic, successful and full of gratitude for having escaped danger: that of being deprived of something we used to have and that we take for granted.
It 's only when we try to stand for ten minutes without something we established that the attention it deserves. The rest of the time, we do not even notice. What are the things that are part of our daily lives and that we take for granted?
I can think of only a few: the freedom to express their opinions, the ability to move around by car, train or plane, or the affection of their mother's partner, the heating on cold evenings' Winter, cinema, internet, the opportunity to study, have shoes, you can go to a restaurant.
Here, I think, when we are on the verge of a nervous breakdown because our train is late, or because for some reason we can not go on vacation, when the hysteria graze because the ADSL is not working or because you downloaded the phone, we should do a deep breath and rethink the quality of our needs and our desires.
