This was recently posted on an adoption yahoo group. I'm not sure who the original author is. It's such a great reminder. We are blessed beyond measure.
If you woke up 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 lonliness 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 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 the world's wealthy.
If you can read this message, you just recieved a double blessing in that someone was thinking of you, and furthermore, you are more blessed than the over 2 billion people in the world who cannot read at all.
