Stupid

"We’re meant to lose the people we love. How else are we supposed to know how important they are to us?"

I pulled the above quote from the Non Society site. It's from the movie The Curious Case Of Benjamin Button. I can only believe that it is quoted there because the author found it touching and it was meant to move those of us who read it. This has nothing to do with any feeling I have for the site this came from (just acknowledging where I got it.)
*Below is the answer the question to the above.

A: Uh,the way you're 'supposed to know' is to not be an ungrateful ass and to start, right now, to be grateful and outwardly loving and appreciative while these people are actually here---- in front of you! Why don't people get that this is one of the secrets to a happy, healthy life. IT'S SO EASY. Same old story of 'guy loses girl' and pleads to win her back. "You don't know what you got until it's gone" kind of a thing. What a stupid waste of time. Come on people. You don't really buy this crap, do you?
*Don't wait for death, tragedies or situations and money to make you wake up to your your life and be happy and appreciative for every little thing. Trust me on this one.
