Success

I was laying in bed last night thinking... Humans have been around for a couple of hundred thousand years (they've been here in North America for roughly 40,000 years). In that time, it is estimated that 96,000,000,000 people have come and gone. Nearly all of them simply sought food, shelter, safety, community and peace with their god(s). To obtain these basic things, on any given day, was success. By the measure of the vast majority of all humans who have ever lived, I am very fortunate. I really don't need anything more.
