HOW POOR WE REALLY ARE..

One Day a wealthy family man took his son on road trip to the country so he could have his son to see how poor country people were. They stayed one day and one night in the farm house of a very humble farmer. On they way back home, the father asked, “What do you think about road trip?”

The son replied, “Very nice dad.”

Then the father asked, “Did you noticed how poor they were?”

The son replied, “Yes, I guess so.”

Then the father added, “And what do you learn?”

To this question the son thought for a moment and answered slowly, “I learned that we have a dog in the house and they have four. We have fountain in the garden and they have a stream with no end. We have fancy lanterns in our garden, while they have the stars. Our garden goes to the edge of our yard they have the entire horizon!”

At the end of son’s answer, the father was speechless. His son then added. “Thanks dad, for showing me how poor WE really are.”
