The Most Typical Face
Just thought I'd share a link to National Geographic's Most Typical Face On The Planet. It is a very interesting little video. It's under 3 minutes long and I highly recommend it. It reminds me a little of when I went to a hunger banquet a couple years ago. Something like 80% of the guests had to sit on the floor and share a plate of beans and chips with the people sitting around them. 15% got to sit on chairs and get a bagged lunch type meal. And 5% got to sit at tables and were served a nice three course meal. It was to represent to approximate percentages of how food is distributed in our world. It was quite the eye opener. Ryan and I were one of the lucky few to get the three course meal. We were very grateful to not be sitting on the floor. But seeing so many people on the floor with such little food compared to us really brought home how blessed we are to be able to afford food.
