To all my friends and loved ones Love from me Useful Perspective
致朋友們以及我所愛的人們 這是一份愛的禮物也是一席金玉良言


If the world were a Village of 100 People
如果世界是個一百人的村落


David J.Smith/大衛(wèi).史密斯
Shelath Armstrory/謝拉.阿姆斯壯


If we could shrink the earth’s population to a village of precisely 100 people, with all the exsting human ratios remaining the same, it would look something like the following:
如果我們把全世界的人口按照現(xiàn)有壓縮為一個100人的村子,情況就會如同以下:


There would be:
57 Asians
21 Europeans
10 from the Western Hemisphere, both north and south
8 Africans
這個村子里有:
57 人是亞洲人
21 人是歐洲人
14 人來自西半球的南、北美洲
8 人是非洲人


52 would be female
48 would be male
52 人是女性
48 人是男性


70 would be non-while
30 would be white
70 人是有色人種
30 人是白人
70 would be non-christian
30 would be Christian
70 人是非基督教徒
30 人是基督徒


89 would be heterosexual
11 would be homosexual
89 人是異性戀者
11 人是同性戀者


6 people would possess 59% of the entire world’s wealth and all 6 would be from the United States.
6 人擁有全世界 59%的財富 而且這 6 人全是美國人


80 would live in substandard housing
70 would be unable to read
50 would suffer from malnutrition
1 would be near death; 1 would be near birth
80 人的居住環(huán)境不達標準
70 人是文盲
50 人苦于營養(yǎng)不良
1 人瀕臨死亡邊緣;1 人正要出生


1(yes, only 1) would have a college education
1 would own a computer
1 人(是的,只有1人)會接受大學教育
1 人擁有電腦


When one considers our world from such a compressed perspective, the need for acceptance, understanding and education becomes glaringly apparent.
透過這個壓縮圖來放眼我們的世界,就會明曉接納他人、諒解以及教育是何等重要。


The following is also something to ponder……
再從以下角度來想想看……


If you woke pup this morning with more health than illness……you are more blessed than the million who will not survive this week.
如果你早上醒來的時候健康無恙……那么,比起活不過這一周的百萬人來說,你真是幸運多了。


If you have never experienced the danger of battle, the loneliness of imprisonment, the agony of torture, or the pangs of starvation…you are ahead of 500 million people in the world.
如果你未曾經(jīng)歷過戰(zhàn)爭的危險、入獄的孤獨、嚴刑的苦楚、饑餓的痛苦……那么,比起世界上5億人來,你真是幸運多了。


If you have food in the refrigerator, clothes on your back, a roof overhead and a place to sleep… you are richer than 75% of this world.
如果你冰箱里有食物,身上有衣服可穿,有屋篷遮蔽,有地方睡覺……那么,比起世界上75%的人來,你真是富足多了。


If you have money in the bank, in your wallet, and spare change in dish someplace…you are among the top 8% of the world’s wealth.
如果你銀行中有存款,錢包中也有錢,還能到某處消費習菜……你便躋身在世界上最富有的8%人口當中了。


If your parents are still alive and still married…you are very rare, even in the United Stated and Canada.
如果你的父母依然健在,而且還在一起生活的話……這可是非常難得的事,即使是在美國與加拿大。


Someone once said: What goes around comes around.
有人說過:我所付出的終將會回歸。


So…
Work live you don’t need the money.
Love like you’ve never been hurt.
Dance like nobody’s watching.
Sing like nobody’s listening.
Live like it’s Heaven on Earth.
所以……
去工作時,猶如你不執(zhí)迷于金錢。
去愛他人,猶如你從未曾被傷害。
去舞蹈吧,猶如無人在一旁觀看。
去歌唱吧,猶如無人在一邊諦聽。
好好地生活,猶如這里是人間樂土。
