| Interesting facts someone passed on to me. If we could shrink the earth’s population to a village of precisely 100 people， with all the existing human ratios remaining the same， it would look something like the following: There would be: 57 Asians 21 Europeans 14 from the Western Hemisphere， both north and south 8 Africans 52 would be female 48 would be male 70 would be non-white 30 would be white 70 would be non-Christian 30 would be Christian 89 would be heterosexual 11 would be homosexual 6 people would possess 59% of the entire world’s wealth and all 6 would be from the United States. 80 would live in substandard housing 70 would be unable to read 50 would suffer from malnutrition 1 would be near death; 1 would be near birth 1 (yes， only 1) would have a college education 1 would own a computer When one considers our world from such a compressedperspective， the need for acceptance， understanding and education becomes glaringly apparent. The following points are also something else to ponder... If you woke up this morning with more health than illness... you are more blessed than the million who will not survive this week. If you have never experienced the danger of battle， the loneliness of imprisonment， the agony of torture， or the pangs of starvation... you are ahead of 500 million people in the world. If you can attend a church meeting without fear of harassment， arrest， torture， or death... you are more blessed than three billion people in the world. If you have food in the refrigerator， clothes on your back， a roof overhead and a place to sleep... you are richer than 75% of this world. If you have money in the bank， in your wallet， and spare change in a dish someplace ... you are among the top 8% of the world’s wealthy. If your parents are still alive and still married...you are very rare. If you can read this message， you just received a double blessing in that someone was thinking of you， and furthermore， you are more blessed than over two billion people in the world that cannot read at all. Someone once said: What goes around comes around. Work like you don’t need the money. Love like you’ve never been hurt. Dance like no-one’s watching. Sing like no-one’s listening. Live like it’s Heaven on Earth. It’s National Friendship Week. Pass this on， and brighten someone’s day. This language was borrowed from sakura pop . |
