Can we have COMPASSION for others?
If we can shrink the world into a village of 100 people, and the world ratio stays the same, this is what it looks likeā¦
57 of them would be Asians
21 of them will be Europeans
14 of them will be from western region
8 African
52 female
48 male
70 non white
30 white
70 non Christian
30 Christian
89 heterosexual
11 homosexual
6 people will have 59% of the world wealth
80 people will live in sub standard housing
70 people are unable to read
50 will lack malnutrition
1 will have collage education
1 will own a computer
99 will not own a computer
1 near birth
1 near death
If you can attend a church meeting without fear, you are more blessed than 3 billion people in the world today
If your parents are still alive and still married you are very rare person
If you have a food in the refrigerator, cloth on your back, a roof over your head and a place to sleep, you are richer than 75% of the world.
If you have money in the bank, spare change stash some ware, you are at the top 8% of the world wealthy people today.
If you have a cloth to wear, a roof over your head, a few changes in your pocket, if you are healthy, you have someone that care about you then you have of a lot to be grateful
Count your blessing and show compassion to others.
