DAVE'S WORDS OF WISDOM # 30
--------------------------
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 of what would be considered a very poor family.
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.
The son answered: “I saw that we have one dog and they had 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, they have friends to protect them.”
The boy’s father was speechless.
Then his son added, “Thanks Dad for showing me how poor we are.”
Moral: Love, Unity, Care, Satisfaction is richer than any comfort money gives.

@@@ i know this is not the usual day i upload but i am just super happy cause i am free from the jail call school (for a week but i am not gonna let that bother me). during this jail-free week i will be catching up with all my lovely people on here that i haven't talk to in ages (starting tomorrow because frankly all i can think of right now is food and sleep). i will also be trying to read as many books as i can (probably 5 or 10 depending on how many anime i have to watch, but i doubt i will finish 5.). Yes i am letting my inner geek out :-D and i also will be working on something that i am trying to write but my attention span for writing is really really short. So enjoy this upload and the moral!!!!!
