This one is important to dwell on...... What things do we take for granted. What things should we be thankful for. Do we really appreciate how lucky we are, specially when there are way too many less fortunate?.... Just thinking out loud.....

Our world is not a very friendly place a lot of the time and sometimes it is downright dangerous. I remind myself daily that I am fortunate to have food, shelter, basic human rights.

Again that is humanity, either you born in the place at the right time, or you are not ?

That is so true. Many born with such rights can still struggle to survive, to get enough to eat, get access to medical help, all of which yet others receive automatically.
These and many other things are realities of our world.
I guess this is what it means to be human.
We strive for these things.
If we have them, we take them for granted.
If necessary we will deny them to others in order to keep them.
Even the most aware of us cannot escape the cages and chains of our time.
What we can do is limited by what we know and what we have and what we believe.
We have to accept our limitations, have to accept that we cannot do everything.
We have to accept that we can do somethings.
We have to learn all we can, gather what resources we can, determine what we can do, which is often only very little within a very small area. And then we just do what we can. We can do no more.
That is reality.

It's true, and one of the worst possible consequences of 1) religion, 2) politics, 3) the fallible and self-referencing nature of the human brain. I am sorry if you are going through things. I wish everyone had had the simple and coddled existence I have had. Or, at least, not having to face daily trauma.
