    拥有万贯家财,也许是件很体面可以炫耀于人前的事情。但是,这又有什么可以炫耀的呢?财富可能遮望眼,可能迷心灵,让人看不到更体会不到生活的另一边的美好。那种美好金钱买不到,却可以由乐观的生活态度得到。所以,必须养成正确的财富观。
 
  One day a wealthy family man took his son on a trip to the country so he could have his son see how poor country people were.

  They stayed one day and one night in the farmhouse of a very humble farm. On the way back home at the end of the trip the father asked the son, "What did you think of the trip?"

  The son replied, "Very nice, Dad."

  The father then asked, "Did you noticed how poor they were?"

  The son replied, "Yes, I guess so."

  The father then added, "And what did you learn?"

  To this question, the son thought for a moment and answered slowly, "I learned that we have one dog in the house and they have four. We have a fountain in the garden and they have a stream that has no end.

  "We have fancy lanterns in our garden, while they have the stars. Our garden goes to the edge of our yard, but for their back yard they have the entire horizon!"

  At the end of the son's reply, the rich father was speechless. His son then added: "Thanks, Dad, for showing me how poor we really are."

  Isn't it true that all depends on the lens you use to see life?

  If you have love, friends, family, health, good humor and a positive attitude toward life, you've got everything! You can't buy any of these things. You can have all the material possessions you can imagine, provisions for the future, etc., but if you are poor of spirit, you have nothing!
