“The same lethargy, I am afraid, characterizes the use of all our faculties and sense. Only deaf appreciate hearing, on the blind realize the manifold blessing that lie in sight.” From this quotes, I think a healthy people should learn how to appreciate how luck they are, and learn how to cherish what you have now. Helen taught us life is meaningful and keenness of appreciation. I think it is important to understand, then people wont complain how miserable their life, because they will find different views of life.
If now you are wondering what is your life, please read this book. I belief you will be deeply moved by Helen Kellers plans for three days to see.
