Ponder on this...

One day ...

There was a boy, whose family was very wealthy. One day his father took him on a trip to the country, where he aimed to show his son,  how poor  people live.
So they arrived on a farm of a very poor family, as he considered. They spent there several days. On their return, the father asked his son,"did you like the trip?".

"Oh,  it was great dad", the son replied. 
"Did you notice how poor people live?",  the father asked.
"Yeah, I did", said the son. 
The father asked his son to tell in more detail about his impressions from their trip.

"Well, we have only one dog and they have four of them. In our garden there is a pool, while they have a river that has no end. We have expensive lanterns but they have stars above their heads at night. we have a patio, and they have a whole horizon. We have only a small piece of land, whilst they have endless fields. we buy food but they grow it. We have high fences for protection of our property, and they don't need it as their friends protect them".

The father was stunned. He could not say a word.

Then the son added "Thank you dad, for letting me see how poor we are".

Kind of makes you think...

God bless x
