Happy New Year and welcome to 2016. Another year and another chances to make the world a better place.
Yes, in the end of last year we had quite sad thoughts about what was happening but also some nice one. Not all was and is bad and hope is still around.
But maybe you need some more to feel more comfortable as you maybe know five positive words are needed to clear off one negative.
So let's take in the good things in life and see what I have found...
More people then ever have access to drinking water. 1990 it has been 77% now in 2015 there are 91% all around the world.
More people then ever live longer then ever. 1990 the expected lifspan was 65,3 years and now in 2015 we arrived to 71 years. That can't be bad. That means we did some things right.
Fewer starving people then before as we know. Just take a look at 1990: 1010,7 million people did starve. Then in 2004 it was already 961 million people and the number went down again and so we had in 2015 around 795 million people. Sure still far to many, but significantly less.
And another positive thing we achieved: Less children die. The infant mortality has fallen from 12,7 million in 1990 to less then the half in 2015 with 5,9 million. Thought it's still a tragic number and could make you shiver. All those little souls but then, less have to die. More stay alive and get a second and third and fourth summer and so on. Let's hope this continues.
And the fifth thing I will give you is that you could see the internet rise and in the last years also in good ways as people started to connect and get aware that you have a place to share positive thoughts, to remind each other in the good in us, that you can share positive words and pictures and that we can help each other and give trust and faith, that we can understand things and ask, and last but not least that we should use this medium to make this world a better place. Just IMAGINE....
Five positive things... well it's a start, isn't it? Let's be grateful for that.
LOVE & LIGHT for 2016
