Many people work long hours, are busy on the weekends with household maintenance, take few if any vacations. How is this different from slavery or being in prison?

it affords us the opportunity to deal with past mistakes and learn new ways of living that are in harmony with Divine Principle.
As we learn, the soul becomes lighter and more able to ascend
to new heights. Earth school can be grilling and getting over
the love of being here is a long process. As we repeatedly
return to our earth lessons we gain compassion for the other
billions of souls who are on the same treadmill as we. With
compassion comes Love to our fellow man. When we gain love for ALL our fellow man and our self - we are at graduation time.

Living and the people that are in your life makes it a blessing. The opportunities are what you make of them. Go live in a 3rd world country and see what is so special about freedom of choice. We tend to take that for granted.

The butterfly effect.
Every life is so special. That a single life can change everything around itself.... Its pretty amazing.
Thats what I think.
But more on a down to earth level.
Its the power of the mind.
that energy that can never be destroyed is everything, all we are.
So life is forever.
Man, that was so not down to earth. But was that too much... I dont know, thats just usually what I think about.

In our humanistic culture, people pursue many things, thinking that in them they will find meaning. Some of these pursuits include business success, wealth, good relationships, sex, entertainment, and doing good to others. People have testified that while they achieved their goals of wealth, relationships, and pleasure, there was still a deep void inside, a feeling of emptiness that nothing seemed to fill.
The author of the biblical book of Ecclesiastes describes this feeling when he says, “Meaningless! Meaningless! ...Utterly meaningless! Everything is meaningless” (Ecclesiastes 1:2). King Solomon, the writer of Ecclesiastes, had wealth beyond measure, wisdom beyond any man of his time or ours, hundreds of women, palaces and gardens that were the envy of kingdoms, the best food and wine, and every form of entertainment available. He said at one point that anything his heart wanted, he pursued. And yet he summed up “life under the sun”—life lived as though all there is to life is what we can see with our eyes and experience with our senses—is meaningless. Why is there such a void? Because God created us for something beyond what we can experience in the here-and-now. Solomon said of God, “He has also set eternity in the hearts of men...” (Ecclesiastes 3:11). In our hearts we are aware that the “here-and-now” is not all that there is.

I think the fact that it exists at all, is beyond special. When you think about it, there really is no reason for life to exist at all, but it does.
