One day a father of a very rich family took his son on a trip to the country to see how poor people can be. They spent a couple of days and nights with a poor family on the farm. On their return from their trip, hoping his son had learned a lesson, the father asked his son, “How was the trip?”

　　“It was great, Dad.”

　　“Did you see how poor people can be?” The father asked.

　　“Oh Yeah,” said the son.

　　“So what did you learn from the trip?” asked the father.

　　The son answered, “I saw that we have one dog and they have four.”

　　“We have a fountain in our garden and they have a real stream that has no end.”

　　“We have beautiful lanterns in our garden and they have the stars at night”

　　“We have a small piece of land to live on and they have fields that go beyond our sight.”
