One day a father and his well-to-do family took his young son on a trip to the country with the firm purpose of showing him how poor some people can be. They spent a day and a night at 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 asked. "Yeah" said the son. "And what did you learn?" asked the father. 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 the whole horizon." When the little boy was finished, his father was speechless. His son added, "Thanks dad for showing me how poor we are." Isn't it true it all depends on the way you look at things? If you have love, friends, family, health, good humor and a positive attitude towards life --- you've got everything...... You can't buy any of these things. You can have all the material possessions you can imagine, provisions for the future, etc., but if you are poor of spirit, you have nothing
