Ok ok just thinking over being poor.
A little bit of funny humor that may be
offensive!
You know you are poor when your dog goes to
church with you because you can not afford a fence! Worse yet between the walk
from church to the house the dog stops at the fishermans house and rolls in his
pile of discards then goes and sits near the pastor while she is trying to
preach at the front of the church.
You know you are poor when you think your
neighbors pigs stink or maybe you need a septic tank and are truly not sure if
both are not correct.
You know you are poor when all of your
English students notebooks fly away because they only had a few pages anyways
and you have class outside on a table because your trailer has no space!
You know you are poor when you go to turn
on the water and then think it does not come out because you did not pay the
bill or because there is no water supply today!
You know you are poor when you think rice
and beans is a complete meal when you put chilis and onions for vegetables!
You know you are poor when the radio is too
expensive to plug in so you listen to an ipod mini that you can charge while
online at the internet café!
You know you are poor when you look for 50
cents on the ground to pay your 30 minutes on the internet!
You know you are poor when the discussion
every few days is how to heat bath water and which is more expensive! Gas,
Electric or going to find fire wood (gas in a car).
You know you are poor when you take your
son to the zoo which is actually a walk to look at the neighbors ostrich and
saint bernards!
You know you are rich when every kid in the
neighborhood wants to eat at your house because you eat two meals a day and better
yet they just want to be there because Jesus lives in and through you!
God does have a way of changing your perspective. Thank you for providing some perspective!!!
