Let me know, what you learnt?
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 .. We have a pool that reaches to the middle of our garden ..
they have a creek that has no end…
We have imported lanterns in our garden …
… they have the stars at night.
Our patio reaches to the front yard ..
..they have the whole horizon.
We have a small piece of land to live on ..
they have fields that go beyond our sight…
We have servants who serve us..
but they serve others ..
We buy our food ..
.. they grow theirs.
We have walls around to protect us..
..they have friends to protect them
The son added ..
Thanks Dad for showing me how poor we are.
