Blessed

Good Morning,

Sometimes in we lose view of how fortunate each of us actually are. A
quick look around at the worlds statistics can always serve as a
gentle reminder of just how well off most of us are.
If you woke up this morning with more health than
illness..........you are more fortunate 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.

If you hold up your head with a smile on your face and are truly
thankful.....you are unique because the majority can, but most do not.

If you can read now, you are more blessed than over two billion
people in the world that cannot read at all.

Have a wonderful day and consider yourself one of the fortunate.

Peace and Love, Jim
