It's not much bad as you think!

``Assume the world population is only 100!
- There are 57 Asians, 21 Europeans, 14 Westerns and 8 Africans.
- 52 Women and 48 Men, 30 Whites and 70 Blacks, Asians, Browns and Yellows.
- 30 Christans and 70 the rest.
- 6 people who owns 59% of the whole world's properties and all 6 people are Americans.
- 80 people don't own a house and stay where it's suitable for them.
- 70 people can't read, 50 lack of nutrition and starve. 1 is going to die and another is going to give birth.
- Only one person can have University education and only one person can own a Computer.
Above are the relevant percentages of the world.

% If you can wake up this morning with good health, you have better luck than million people on the world who are going to die within this week.
% If you have never suffered war troubles, never stayed in jail, and never suffered starvation, you are a lucky person who doesn't be counted among 500 million people in the world who have suffered above troubles.
% If you can go to your religious temples, pagodas peacefully and you don't need to worry to be killed for going those places, you are much luckier than 3 billion people who have to worry with that.
% If you have food in your refrigerator, clothes to wear on your body, and can stay under a roof and a bed, you can assume yourself that you are richer than 75% of the world population.
% If you have some money in a bank or some money in your pocket and also have some cash in your house, you can be sure that you are OK standard in the 8% of the world.
% Moreover, if you have both Mom and Dad, and also your parents still stay together, you are even involved among very rare people around the world.
% Finally, if you can read this blog, you are much luckier than 2 billion people who can't read and write anything.


** If you consider this way, you should realize since now that your life is not much terrible as you think.
*** I hope you all are enjoyed..........
