A father took his son to a village to teach about poverty.After the trip he asked his son about the poor

Son replies as

  • We have small pool,they have long river
  • we have lamps,they have stars
  • We have small piece of land,they have big farms
  • we have servants to serve us,they serve others
  • We buy food,they grow them
  • We have houses to protect us,they have friends,

  the boy's father was speechless.

Then his son said "thanks for showing how poor we are"....
