If you needed 100+ people that you'll never meet being injured in a city that most Americans will never visit to remind you of that, then no temporary re-calibration of your sense of perspective is going to matter.
I tell my wife I love her and give her a kiss every day before work. Same when she gets home from work (or something to the effect). Hell, before I go to bed each night I go and pet all 3 dogs, tell them that they're good dogs and give them a peck on the top of the head. One of these days I'll include a kid or two in those rounds as well.
Either you have a healthy handle on what's important in life or you don't. Yesterday's events shouldn't change that.

You have a point. But sometimes people take things for granted. These events serve as reminders, I would suppose. We are lucky we are in the good end of it.
