Some of the most familiar

As soon as they invited me on to the show, I knew there would be trouble. I even got a strange psychic flash about eating bugs. But I ignored it because I wanted, so badly, this chance to raise such a large sum for charity.

If we miss ordinary objects so much, which can easily be replaced with a simple shopping trip, think how much more we must miss human beings. Our loved ones are irreplaceable. A day without someone you trust and adore is a day with an empty ache. It is sad that our society is often so materialistic that we will value objects above lives – particularly the lives of people we
don’t know.

Everyone is loved by someone. It might be trite for me to say that everyhuman being is worth infinitely more than any mere object – but it’s a lesson all of us need to relearn daily.
