 Interesting World Population Stats
 
An interesting perspective. It reminds us how fortunate we really are! 
The current population of Earth is around 7.8 Billion. For some these are just numbers . 
However, someone has condensed the 7.8 billion in the world into 100 persons, and then into various percentage statistics. 
The resulting analysis is relatively much easier to comprehend.
Wish there was a bit more info, are those that live in countryside including New Zealand wish it was more specific and who gathered the info.  
Out of those 100 people:
 
11 are in Europe
5 are in North America
9 are in South America
15 are in Africa
60 are in Asia
 
49 live in the countryside
51 live in cities
 
12 speak Chinese
5 speak Spanish
5 speak English
3 speak Arabic
3 speak Hindi
3 speak Bengali
3 speak Portuguese
2 speak Russian
2 speak Japanese
62 speak their own language.
 
77 have their own houses.
23 have no place to live.
 
21 are over-nourished
63 can eat full meals.
15 are under-nourished
1 ate the last meal, but did not make it to the next meal.
 
The daily cost of living for 48 is less than US$2.
 
87 have clean drinking water
13 either lack clean drinking water or only have access to a water source that is polluted.
 
75 have mobile phones
25 do not.
 
30 have internet access
70 do not have conditions to go online.
 
7 received a university education
93 did not attend college.
 
83 can read
17 are illiterate.
 
33 are Christians
22 are Muslims
14 are Hindus
7 are Buddhists
12 are other religions
12 have no religious beliefs.
 
26 live less than 14 years
66 died between 15 - 64 years of age
8 are over 65 years old.
 
If you have your own home,
Eat full meals & drink clean water,
Have a mobile phone,
Can surf the internet, and have gone to college,
You are in the minuscule privileged lot.
(in the less than 7% category).
 
Amongst 100 persons in the world, only 8 can live or exceed the age of 65.
 
*you are over 65 years old.
 
Be content & grateful.  Cherish life, grasp the moment.*
You did not leave this world before the age of 64 years like the 92 persons who have gone before you. You are already the blessed amongst mankind
 
Take good care of your own health and cherish every remaining moment.
Faith isn't a jump in the dark. It is a walk in the light. Faith is not guessing; it is knowing something.
"Challenges are what make life interesting; overcoming them is what makes life meaningful."

Interesting stats, puts a lot of things into perspective. We do not realize a lot of times just how blessed we are.
Just an old country boy saved by the grace of God.
