      The following is something to ponder..............
     
      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 of 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 of
      harassment, arrest, torture, or death...you are more
      blessed than three billion 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 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 God's 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.
