If you have your own home,
Eat full meals and drink clean water,
Have a mobile phone,
Can surf the internet, and
have gone to college,
You are in the miniscule privileged lot.
(in the less than 7% category)
*If you are over 65 years old. Be content and 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 because nobody cares more than you yourself!
Thank nature for all the Blessings”
Cherish every Moment.
