everything of substance has to be paid for when you think about it. so for me, paying is something i take for granted.
after that, the human condition, crime, charity, hope, greed, hate, loneliness, happiness, pain, love, i take for granted that most of us have or commit all of them.
i read todd's list and would agree to most of it were i in the uk.
here in the Philippines, we buy drinking water in 5 gall containers, power outages are common so there goes the aircon and hot water and long dist communication. while food is abundant there's a lot of stuff you can't buy. while i do take aspirins for granted, many people here can't afford one. the majority of people here can't afford most of what's on the list. living here i've grown to take poverty for granted.
