这是一个北美做的统计:
If you have food in the refrigerator clothes on your back, a roof over head and a place to sleep . . . you are richer than 70% of this world.
如果你的冰箱里面有食物,你身上有衣服,你有瓦遮头,你有一个睡觉的地方。。。你比世界上70%的人富有。
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.
如果你的银行账户里面有钱,钱包里有钱,而且某个盘子里还有些零钱。。。你是世界上最富有的8%的人。
If you woke up this morning with more health than illness . . . you are more blessed than the million who will not survive this week.
如果你早上起来时,你的健康比疾病多。。。你比这一周内将要病逝的100万人幸运。
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.
如果你从没有尝试过战争的危险,坐牢的孤寂,被虐待的痛苦,或饥饿的苦楚。。。你比世界上5亿人过得好。

If you hold up your head with a smile on your face and are truly thankful . . .you are blessed because although the majority can, most do not.
