They spent two days in a poor family in the village. On their retur n from the trip, the father asked his son, "How was the trip?" “It was great, Dad." “Did you see how poor p e ople could be?" the father asked. “Oh, yeah!" said the son. "So what did you lea rn from the trip?" asked the father. Af t er thinking for a while, the son answered,“1 saw that we have a dog, while they have four. We have a pool in the garden. And they have a small river without an end. At night, We have small lights in the garden, but they have the stars in the sky. We buy our food, but they grow theirs. We have walls around to keep us safe but they have friends." You could imagine the look on the father's face! Then the son went on, "Tanks, Dad. Now I know how poor we are!"
