On their return, the father asked the son "If he liked the trip".
"Oh it was great father"- the boy replied.
Did you noticed how poor people live? "Yes, I did." said the boy.
The father asked his son to tell in more details about his impression from their trip.
"Well, we have one dog, and they have four of them. In our garden there is a pool, while they have a river that was no end. We've got expensive lanterns, but they have stars above their heads at night. We have the balcony, and they have the whole horizon. We have only a piece of land, while they have the endless fields. We buy food, They grow it. We have high fence for protection of our property, and they don't need it, as their friends protect them".
The father was stunned. He could not say a word.
Then the boy added: " Thank you father for letting me see how poor we are".
Moral:
You see in life... in your life. True wealth as well as happiness is measured by material things. Love. Friends, and Freedom are far more valuable. If you truly rich, you possess love, you posses friendship and you are free. Instead of locking yourself into your small island of possessions and safety, you should open up to the world. That way you will be the richest person alive. Because the world belongs to you...
Its Your Buddy, Mushahid
Stay tune.....
