If you have food in your fridge, clothes on your back, a roof
over your head, and a place to sleep
you are richer than 75% of the world.
If you have money in the bank, your wallet and some spare
change
you are among the top 8% of the world's
wealthy.
If you woke up this morning with more health than
illness
you are more blessed than the million people who will not survive
this week.
If you have never experienced the danger of battle, the agony of
imprisonment or torture, or the horrible pangs of
starvation
you are luckier than 500 million people alive and
suffering
If you can read this message
you are more fortunate than 3 billion people in the world who
cannot read at all.
