Global Village

To all my friends and loved ones-
Love from me
Useful Perspective

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 Europeans14 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.

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 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 around 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 nobody's listening.
Live like it's Heaven on Earth.
