What is the luckiest thing that ever happened to you?
A lot of people are grateful:
- every day I get to wake up and live a pretty sweet life
- being here
- existing
- ^ that
- Already written, but existing
- unoriginal, but existing
- getting to be here today
- being born into my circumstances
- go to Swat
- My Mom
- Swat
- getting lotteried out of ML to take Algo.
Many people briefly summarized what must be a much longer story:
- meeting the same Spanish traveler twice in one city and finding out he prepared my medicinal bath from the day before.
- meeting my significant other
- One time I got a concussion and they thought I had broken my neck and was gonna die but I didn't.
- Finding a lost friend in Barcelona
- living with [two other students in the class]
- Last week I was stranded in Philly and ran into a friend.
- a star fell on me
Some people kept it brief:
- e72 pset got cancelled
- fall break
- sleep
- dogs
- Hi blog!
... yes, that last one is a real thing that an actual student wrote to mark their attendance today. They get the "You Almost Asked for This" Prize.
This post is dedicated to everyone reading it: you exist! Huzzah!
This post's theme word is uberty (n), "abundance; fruitfulness". I went through an uberty of thankfulness while contemplating the tenuous and unlikely events leading to my own existence.
