GRATITUDE - March 20, 2012

I AM GRATEFUL FOR MY ABILITY TO OWN A CAR.

Sounds odd , as if everyone of legal driving age surely must have one.  Many households I know have sometimes two or three vehicles with multiple drivers under the roof.


I drive a PT Cruiser, my wife has a Prius and my brother-in-law a new, jet black Porsche.  Every adult I know has a car.


That said, just under 9% of the world's population has a car.

It is a little difficult to then do simple math and say there are 6.76 billion people in the world (according to the US Census Bureau) so 600 million / 6.76 billion = about 9% of the world owns a car.  


So many things we take for granted are privileges of being employed and  living in the United States
