There Are Others Worse Off Than You

If you have food in your fridge, clothes on your back, a roof over your head, and a place to sleep at night...

You are richer than 75% of the world.

If you have money in your pocket, in the bank, and some spare change...

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 people who will not survive the week.

If you have never experienced the danger of battle, the agony of imprisonement or torture, or the horrendous pangs of starvation...

You are luckier than 500 million people alive and suffering.

If you can read this message...

You are more fortunate than the 3 billion people in the world who cannot read at all.

Sometimes I think we lose sight of what is really important in life and how lucky we really are.

Your biggest worry right now may be whether that person in 5th hour likes you or not, but another child across the globe's biggest worry may be when they will eat next.

Repost if you will always think twice when you start to think that your life is so unfair, and you will remember that there are millions of other people who have it so much worse
