Description
Growing up, I did stay in a village like this for a while. This looks like poverty to so many people; but truth be told, the people who live here don’t think that. They eat, they dress, they go to school, they fall in love and get married, and like many other people elsewhere they live for many years. Their gym is walking over long distances and manual work. What you might call modernization or development doesn’t mean much to these people. They don’t need to own a huge house or the latest car to be happy.
Happiness is what you make it. I actually discovered they eat better than most folks living in the cities. They don’t have to feed on junk food. They can’t afford the diseases that come with City lifestyles. Not affording junk food is what saves them from all manner of illnesses. Just ask yourself what makes you imagine you live better than these people? Just a thought.
