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 wuld be male
70 would be non-white
30 would be white
70 would be non-Christian
30 would be Christian
89 would be hetero***ual
11 would be homo***ual
6 peop;e would possess 59% of the entire world's wealth
and all 6 wuld 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 compressed
perspective, the need for acceptance, understanding and
education becomes glaringly apparent.
The following is also something 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, even in the United States and Canada.
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 arund comes around.
Sooooo.............
Work like you don't need the money.
Love like you've never been hurt.
Dance like nobody's watching.
Sing like nobdy's listening.
Live like it's Heaven on Earth.作者: 感恩佛 时间: 10-11-17 00:09
