At the end of "Unusual Normality," Ishmael Beah wishes his peers could realize how lucky they are to have their families and a world free of violence. What is something in your own life that you take for granted? How could you express more appreciation? Do you think it's important to express appreciation for what we have? Why or why not?

Answer and Explanation:

1. Something that is natural in my life is the support of my family and the supply of my greatest needs such as food, water, energy, education, freedom, among others. These elements are natural for me because I cannot imagine myself without them, since they are extremely important for my well being and survival.

2. I could express my gratitude more by not complaining about small and superfluous things, thanking those who promote these elements for me and helping people who are deprived of it, to reach that fullness as well.

3. I believe it is important to express gratitude for what we have, because we are privileged to have them and because someone promotes them for us and that person deserves to be thanked. Furthermore, privilege is something we should not only be grateful for, but also recognize and celebrate it, because without it we would have a very bad life.

that's conceptually impossible.
