Quote: margaret fuller "If you have knowledge let others light their candle in it".

I found this small article in a magazine from 2001
i was browsing through recently.It makes so much sense .give thanks with thanksgiving.we all have so much to be thankful for-so much in our lives we just take for granted.no one signed this little article its by anonymous.here goes:

"counting your blessings.if you have food in the refrigerator, clothes on your back, a roof over head and a place to sleep....you are richer than seventy-five percent of the world.
if you have money in the bank or in your wallet and spare change in a dish someplace....you are among the top eight percent of the worlds wealthy.
if you woke up this morning with more health than illness....you are more blessed than the million that will not survive this week.
if you never experienced the danger of battle,the lonliness of imprisonment.the agony of torture or the pangs of starvation.....you are ahead of 500million people in the world.
if you attend a church meeting or spiritual gathering without fear of harassment,arrest,torture or death...you are more blessed than 3 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 read this message you are more blessed than over 2 billion people in the world who cannot read at all.
if you hold someone's hand,hug them or even touch them on the shoulder..you are blessed because you can offer a healing touch.
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.
now go forth and share your blessing with rest of the planet"...........anonymous
