About Me
Heres a little bit "about me", and a lil sumthin about you...respond to it if you like......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
8 Africans
21 Europeans
14 from the Western Hemisphere, both north & south52 would be female, 48 would be male.
70 would be nonwhite, 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 (yes, only 1) would have a college education,
1 would own a computerWhen you consider 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 worlds wealthy.If your parents are still alive and still married -- you are very rare, even in the United States and Canada.If you hold up your head with a smile on your face and are truly thankful, you are blessed because the majority can, but most do not.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 who cannot read at all are
