Because as an atheist, I already appreciate life and all it's wonders, I have alot of appreciation for it. Why do you think belief in a god allows you to appreciate life more?
Belief in a god would not cause one to appreciate life more. A personal relationship with the God who created all life will give you a greater understanding of life and thus a greater appreciation of life.
God loves those who believe and those who do not and the same goes for me, you have no choice in this matter. That puts the matter of total free will to rest.
