9 Reasons You Are Among Are Rich One
I thought of writing this article after reading a wise quote from H. David Thoreau who said that "Wealth is the ability to feel in earnest the life we live."Although the current economic conditions in recession and overwrite the entire nation in the world, it is important to remember that we actually have wealth are often not aware of.
Wealth many people interpreted as matters related to materialism or luxuries. Though these definitions are still too shallow.
Try to think the list below, 9 reasons to show that you actually are rich:
1. You are not in empty stomach when you sleep last night.
Did you know 50% * of people in this world are still suffering from malnutrition.
2. You are still sleeping in the house and not in the open.
Did you know 80% * of people in this world still live in homes that do not meet the standards.

3. You still have the option to use what clothes you wear today.
There are still many people on this earth, we often refer to it as homeless, living in the open and only had a pair or at most two pairs of shirts and pants worn to wear.
4. You still have enough money in your wallet.
I also used quite often experienced something like this. When I want something, but the money in my wallet is not sufficient several times been empty. I was upset at the time. But eventually I realized that I was still lucky.
If we look back in the environment around us, there are still many people who fill in the wallet just enough to meet the needs of today only, while for the next day they will not know where to get it from.
5. You do not live in fear.
You can imagine the people who live in the midst of war. Every day they think if they can still enjoy tomorrow or not.
6. You can still bathe and drink from the water were clean.
You've probably seen people bathing and washing clothes on the river bank which is no longer clear, filled with waste. You may also have read a news item in the countryside, people to get clean water had to walk up to several kilometers.
7. You can still go to the doctor when you are sick.
Did you know 1% * of people on this earth are in a state of dying / near death.
8. You can still-access to the internet.
Did you know less than 1% * of people on this earth who has a computer.
9. You can read.
Did you know 70% * of people on this earth can not be read.
You can add each sequence to 10, 11, and so on.
To be sure, the core of all this is that you can be grateful for all that you have and get. You have a much better life than the others.
