If we could reduce the world’s population to a village of precisely 100 people, with all existing human ratios remaining the same, the demographics would look something like this:
-60 Asians
-12 Europeans
-5 US Americans and Canadians
-8 Latin Americans
-14 Africans
-49 would be female
-51 would be male
-82 would be non-white
-18 white
-89 heterosexual
-11 homosexual
-33 would be Christian
-67 would be non-Christian
-5 would control 32% of the entire world’s wealth, and all of them would be US citizens
-80 would live in substandard housing
-24 would not have any electricity
-67 would be unable to read
-1 (only one) would have a college education.
-50 would be malnourished and 1 dying of starvation
-33 would be without access to a sûr, sans danger water supply
-1 would have HIV
-1 near death
-2 would be near birth
-7 people would have access to the Internet
If to take a look at the world from this condensed perspective, the need for acceptance, understanding and education becomes evident.
Think of it!
If toi woke up this morning with plus health than sickness, you are luckier than the million that will not survive this week.
If toi have never experienced:
a war, a loneliness of an imprisonment, an agony of tortures ou a famine you are happier, than 500 million persons in this world.
If toi are able to go to church, mosque ou synagogue without fear of harassment, arrest, torture ou death, you are happier, than 3 billion persons in this world.
If there is a meal in your refrigerator,
if toi are dressed and have got shoes,
if toi have a lit and a roof above your head,
you are better off, than 75% of people in this world.
If your parents are still alive and still married,
then you are a rarity.
If toi have a bank account, money in your bourse, sac à main and there is some trifle in your coin box, you belong to 8% of well-provided people in this world.
If toi read this text, you are blessed three times as much, because Someone has thought of you;
toi do not belong to those 2 billion people which cannot read and... toi have had your computer!
Someone has told once:
Work like toi don't need money,
l’amour like you've never been hurt,
Dance like nobody's watching,
Sing like nobody's listening,
Be surprised, like toi were born yesterday,
Tell the truth and toi don't have to remember anything,
Live like it's Heaven on Earth.
This is your World!
Hasten to do good works!
And toi are able to make changes!
Think of it!

Hello to everyone,
my name is Inès, and I'm French.
As a lot of toi know, Paris has been attacked yesterday par terrorists. The concert hall "Le Bataclan" has been attacked during a concert.
128 dead and plus than 200 wounded are for now counted. This is a tragedy.
I was born and I've lived in Paris, and I often go there and to the Bataclan to attend concerts, and seeing this, is just awful. The whole country is shocked and desperate.
3 national days of mourning have been declared.
I invite toi to leave a few words, thoughts for the victims of this disaster.
Thank toi <3
