POVERTY OF THE SOUL
IT IS A COMMONLY HELD THOUGHT THAT ALL POOR PEOPLE ARE MISERABLE AND THAT COULDN’T BE FURTHER FROM THE TRUTH
IN MY TRAVELS I HAVE MET SOME OF THE MOST ENTHUSIASTIC AND HAPPY PEOPLE THAT HAVE BARELY ENOUGH TO EAT AND MARGINAL SHELTER AT BEST………………….THEY WERE GRATEFUL FOR WHAT THEY HAD
OVERALL THEIR CONDENSED MESSAGE, ” SOME THINGS WOULD MAKE LIFE EASIER, BUT THERE ARE MANY THAT DO NOT HAVE WHAT I HAVE, AND THIS IS BUT A TEMPORARY SITUATION AND MY TREASURE AWAITS ME IN MY AFTERLIFE”……………………..SAID WITH CONFIDENCE AND SINCERITY
THEIR FOCUS WAS THEY WERE RICH IN SPIRIT AND MANY SAID THEY WOULD NOT TRADE PLACES WITH THE WEALTHY IF IT MEANT LOSING THEIR FAITH
THERE ARE ALL TYPES OF POVERTY, BUT THE WORST IS TO BE IMPOVERISHED IN YOUR SOUL
