Discovering Things Most Take For Granted

Ethan Scott's fiancé gave him an incredible birthday gift: a new color!

The 24-year-old California vlogger was born red/green colorblind. "It doesn't mean I see the world in black and white, it just means that I see things in a way that are a little bit more dull than usual. I can see some pink and some green; it's just sometimes green looks brown or yellow and pink looks silver or blue," Scott explains in the video.

Our motor vehicles: We do regular maintence on them why?Because we do not want them to expire.

 

Our bodies: wait till something happens and then expect a doctor to fix it.

 

Regular talk "at" my co-workers and friends. Maintain your body as well as you do your vehicles. Most do not wait till the engine quits and why? Inconvenience/mucho $$$ to fix it. But their own body? It's just fine, until it isn't, and then come the "Why Me" questions.

 

Take for granted? I woke up at age 29 and treated my body better than all my cars, including my many race cars. And anyone that knew/knows me, sees how well I have always taken care of every vehicle I have ever owned.

 

How old will some be before they wake up?
