djmikedr Posted December 6 Report Share Posted December 6 The following is something to ponder: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 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 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.------------------Use email DJmikeDR@aol.comPM way too slow!

optimusprime Posted December 6 Report Share Posted December 6 If you have blood on your underwear, clothes off your back, a roof overhead and a place to sleep....you have found Twilo's getaway. If you have money in the bank, in your wallet, and spare change in a dish someplace.....go out and get some coke, it's a lot cheaper now.If you woke up this morning with more health than illness....you are more blessed than the million who will not survive this week because they did waaaaaaaaaaaaaaay too much GHB.If you have ever experienced the danger of ignorance, the imprisonment of stupidity, the agony of torture, or the pangs of annoyance.....Just relax, it was just a MissKittie postIf you can attend a nightclub without fear of harassment, arrest, torture, or death....you ain't in New York, buster.If your parents are still alive and still married...Break them up and then kill them.If you hold up your head with a smile on your face and are truly thankful....you are a happy idiot. Ignorance is bliss. Do more drugs J If you can hold someone's hand, hug them or even touch them on the shoulder....you are blessed because you have a better chance of at LEAST third baseIF 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. Those illiterate morons. Have a good day, count your blessings, and pass this along. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

nlichau Posted December 7 Report Share Posted December 7 That was great!Just this morning I was waiting for the bus in the cold feeling sorry for myself.Then I thought to myself-thank god I have a bus to take to get to work to buy food and pay rent. There are people walking miles in the heat of the desert to find water-food, they are starving.I am very fortunate-all of us on this board are!We should try and remember everyday how much worse our lives could be if we lived somewhere else! ------------------The music makes the people come together...
