What bill are you grateful to pay?
This is a funny prompt. The knee jerk first response is, "none". And then, when you start thinking about what you receive in return for the bills you pay, the next answer is "(almost) all". This morning, the bill that's standing out to me is the garbage bill. Garbage is a subject we hardly have to think about, except remembering once a week to get the bin out to the curb. But if you live in areas or countries without this service, you have to do a lot of thinking about garbage - burn it? Bury it? Live with a bunch of junk around? It provides major public health benefits to have garbage disposed of so efficiently, it keeps things more beautiful and orderly, and it just makes life way easier. I'm thankful for the waste management workers and the whole waste management system.
