There are lots of reasons not to appreciate my wife more.
There are lots of reasons not to be grateful for all that I have in life.
There are lots of reasons not to be passionately engaged at work.
There are lots of reasons not to be patient and understanding of others when driving.
There are lots of reasons not to get to church every week.
