Yes, I do grasp that fact. Yet we do, same as we destroy our health with our eating habits, destroy our health by overwork or working unsafely, etc.

We destroy our relationships and adipt all sorts of maladaptive behaviors that destroy all the parts of our lives by putting the things in that list over our own lives.

Time and time again.

Clearly, life is NOT the most precious thing there is to us.

If it was, we'd act like it. Claiming otherwise is ego driven mental gymnastics by those who lack any real sense of self awareness.
