As I See It
One day a wealthy family man
took his son on a trip to the country so he could have his son see how poor
country people were, and could appreciate what they, themselves, had. They
stayed one day and one night in the farm of a very humble farm house. At the
end of the trip and back home the father asked the son: "What did you
think of the trip?"
The son replied: "Very
nice Dad."
Father: "Did you noticed
how poor they were?"
Son: "Yes."
Father: "What did you
learn?"
Son: "I learned that we
have one dog in the house...and they have four. We have a fountain in the
garden and they have a stream that has no end. We have imported lamps in the
garden, they have the stars. Our garden goes to the edge of our property, they
have the entire horizon as their backyard."
At
the end of the son's reply the father was speechless and his son added:
"Thank you dad for showing me how poor we really are."
