IF  you woke up this morning, with more health than illness, you are more
blessed than the million who will not survive the 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 around the world.

IF you have food in your refrigerator, clothes on your back, a roof over
your head 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 world's wealthy.

IF your parents are still married and alive, you are very rare, even in the
US.

IF you can read this message, you are more blessed than over 2 billion
people in the world who can't read anything at all.*
