The freedom to be able to walk and shop in places without worrying about a shooting is something Malaysians take for granted. I cannot imagine living with that kind of possibility in my life. You know what else we take for granted? The fact that Malaysia is free of most natural disasters like earthquakes and volcanoes and such.

Ditto in the UK. Don't have to worry about guns as almost no-one in the general population owns one.

Closest I've come to an earthquake was something that felt like a lorry driving past the house and we hardly ever get twisters.

@mackaj truly a blessing. We never even think of the possibility in Malaysia and I am glad.

@liztai a tornado just hit Houston and I'm incredibly grateful that I have family here I can stay with while our power's out.

In the moment, I didn't even have to think twice about this privilege. Meanwhile there are thousands of people who are having to find their way to temporary cooling centers in the city to avoid heat stroke.
