Actually, it's more of getting to 'that point in my life' and not having someone, and trying to help those who are blessed (yeah, I shoulda said 'blessed, not 'lucky') to realize it. rather than take it for granted.
Depends on the kind of life. I didn't used to have a life that kept me from spending all my time in the computer and learning things like that, now I do whether I want it or not.
