and you feel nothing but sadness...
Why?
Do
you think that your way is better?
I
have everything that I need:
my mother, my father and
my bicycle.
Amen.

I like this! It's very uplifting and it puts things in perspective a bit.
I thought along these lines when I saw this photo. We have so much 'stuff' that we don't need or even want. I hope she has enough food though...
Nice point of view. I like it!
Brilliant and very true!
mom, dad and a bike. amen.
indeed!
Absolutely bang-on! I work with under-privileged kids and, almost without exception, they don't realized that their lifestyle is as under-privileged as it is. I tread a thin line every day between pointing out the need for them to reach up toward a higher standard of life and putting them down because of their circumstances. You captured that sense of belonging and dignity very well. Good for you!
Amen. Well said!

Very charming!
Nice take on the prompt.
Loved the question at the end-compels one to ponder-are we better off just because we are more privileged or do we just assume that?Wonderfully written:-)
Sometimes more isn't always better. Beautifully put.
Very true! Stuff doesn't equal happiness.
Sweet. I love it.
