HOW BLESSED WE REALLY ARE

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 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 if 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
Or harassment, arrest, torture, or death...you
Are more blessed than three billion people in the world

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 blessed
Because the majority can, but most do not.

If you can hold someone's
Hand, hug them or even touch them on the
Shoulder...you are blessed
Because you can offer healing touch.

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.

Have a good day, count your blessings, and pass
This along to remind everyone else how blessed we all are.
