HOW POOR ARE WE??


One day a father, of a very wealthy family,
took his son on a trip to the country
with the firm purpose of showing his son how poor people can be.

They spent a couple of days and nights on the farm
of what would be considered a very poor family. On their return from the trip, the father asked his son, "How was the trip?" "It was great Dad!" "Did you see how poor people can be?" the father asked. "Oh yeah," said the son. "So what did you learn from the trip?" asked the father. The son answered, " I saw we have one dog and they have four.
We have a pool that reaches to the middle of our garden
and they have a creek that has no end.

We have imported lanterns in our garden
and they have the stars at night.

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

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,
and they have friends to protect them." With this the boy's father was speechless. Then his son added, "Thanks Dad for showing me how poor we are."
What is one persons worthless object
Is another’s prize possession.

It is all based on one’s perspective.
Makes you wonder what would happen
If we all gave thanks to God
For all the bounty we have been provided by Him,
Instead of worrying about wanting more.

Too many times we forget what we do have
And concentrate on what we do not have.

Be thankful for all He has given each and
Every one of us, especially our family and friends.

HAPPY THANKSGIVING TO ALL MY FRIENDS AND FAMILY
