One day a father took his young Son on a trip to the country with the firm purpose to show him how poor people can be . They spent a day and a night in the farm of a very poor family . When they got back from their trip the father asked his son ,”How was the trip?”
“Very good , Dad!”
“Did you see how poor people can be !”the father said .
“Yeah!”
“And what did you learn ?”
The son answered,”I saw that we have a dog at home , and they have four . We have a pool that reaches to the middle of the garden ; they have a creek that has no end . We have imported lamps in the garden ; they have the stars . Our patio reaches to the front yard; they have a whole horizon.”
When the little boy was finishing , his father was speechless.
His son added , “thanks, Dad ,for showing me how poor we are !”
Isn’t it turn that it all depends on the way you look at things ? If you have love , friends , family , health , good humor and a positive attitude toward life , you’ve got everything!
