i love survival makes even the simplest comforts seem amazing. nothing has ever humbled me so much as being homeless just surviving day to day. it really puts things into perspective makes you realize the true value of life. also helps you find yourself. as someone who has lost and found themselves many times before it was the most influential finding so far.
It is refreshing to hear someone finding the beauty in something that most people would find -uncomfortable-(can't think of another word).
I also imagine that it would put the value of money and material possessions into perspective. Realizing that they aren't as important as some people see them.

^^Word. I love your post dspade!! It has made me think about things we take for granted. When I got extremely sick a couple of months ago (terrible pneumonia) I realized I had taken being healthy for granted. Now I am so thankful I can breathe well, that I can walk without my body aching, that I can go to work and earn a living. It was as if I had to get really sick in order to discover that I wasnt invincible, and I have to take care of myself, and how thankful I am for the littlest things.
