The parable One of these days I have read the parable. It moved me and I decided to share the story. Once upon a time one rich man took his son along on a trip to far corners of the country. The main goal of this journey was to show the boy what it is to live without money. They have spent a few days in the extremely poor family's farm. Upon their return home, the father asked his son if he pleased this trip? - "I liked it", The boy said. -"Did you see how poor people can be?", The man asked.-"Yes!", The answer has followed. -"And have you learned something from this?" - the father again asked. And the boy said: " I've seen that we have one dog and they have four. Our swimming pool is just until the middle of the garden and they river has no end. There are luxurious lanterns around our house and stars light to them at night. Our terrace is up to the forecourt and they can walk as far as the eye can see. We have just a little piece of ground where we live and they have boundless fields. We buy food, they grows a lot of his own. Around us there are hypocrites and bootlickers, around them there are friends." The father of the son stood aghast at the such news. And the boy added: " I understood how we are actually poor." I hope you like this story =))

The parable

One of these days I have read this parable. It moved me and I've* decided to share the story.

* you decided in the past but it has an effect now because you're telling it

Once upon a time a rich man took his son along on a trip to the far corners of the country. The main goal of this journey was to show the boy what it is like to live without money.
They have spent a few days in an extremely poor family's farm. Upon their return home, the father asked his son if he liked this trip. "I liked it," the boy said. "Did you see how poor people can be?" the man asked. "Yes!" the answer has followed. "And have you learned something from this?" the father again asked. And the boy said, "I've seen that we have one dog and they have four. Our swimming pool is just to the middle of the garden and their river has no end. There are luxurious lanterns around our house and stars light to them at night. Our terrace is up to the forecourt and they can walk as far as the eye can see. We have just a little piece of ground where we live and they have boundless fields. We buy food, they grows a lot of their own. Around us there are hypocrites and bootlickers, around them there are friends." The father of the son stood aghast at the such news. And the boy added, "I understood how we are actually poor."
