  3. One day, the father of a very wealthy family took his son on a trip to the country with the express purpose of showing him how poor people live. They spent a couple of days and nights on the farm ofwhat would be considered a very poor family.

  4. On their return from their trip, the father asked his son,"How was the trip?"It was great, Dad."Did you see how poor people live?" the father asked.Oh yeah," said the son. So, tell me, what did you learn from the trip?"asked the father.

  5. The son answered: "I saw that we have one dog andthey had four.We have a pool that reaches to the middle of our gardenand they have a creek that has no end.We have imported lanterns in our garden and they havethe stars at night.

  6. Our patio reaches to the front yard and theyhave the whole horizon.We have a small piece of land to live on and they havefields that go beyond our sight. 

  7. We have servants who serve us, but they serve others.We buy our food, but they grow theirs.We have walls around our property to protect us, theyhave friends to protect them." .

  8. The boy's father was speechless. Then his son added, "Thanks, Dad, for showing me how poor we are."
