One day, a rich man took his young son on a trip to the country with the express purpose of showing him how poor people live.They spent a day and a night on the farm of a very poor family.When they got back from their trip, the father asked his son,
" How was the trip ?"
"Very good, Dad!"
"Did you see how poor people live?" the father asked.
"Yeah!"
"And what did you learn?"
The son answered, " I saw that we have one dog at home, and they have four. We have a pool that reaches the middle of the garden, while they have a creek that has no end. We have imported lamps in the garden, they have the stars. Our patio reaches the front yard and they have a whole horizon."
