It all depends on the way you see things.

One day a wealthy father took his son on a trip to the country with the firm
purpose of showing him how really poor people are. They spent a day and a night
in the farm of a very poor family. When they returned, the father asked his son,
"How did you see the trip?"
"Very good Dad!"
"Did you see how really poor people can be?" the father asked."
"Yeah!"
"And what did you learn?"
The son answered, "I saw that we have a dog at home, and they have four dogs.
We have a pool that reaches to the middle of the garden, they have a creek that
has no end. We have imported lamps in the garden, they have the stars. Our patio
reaches to the front yard, they have a whole horizon."
When the little boy was finished, his father was speechless. His son added,
"Thanks, Dad, for showing me how poor we are."
