In reality, being poor is a hard situation in life.
Such a pain, for anyone who may experience it. Most people don't want to be poor. But for those who know the advantage of it, they are so thankful, even in that less fortunate condition.
Being poor feels like, almost everyone rejects you. Because since you don't have money, it seems they can't have any benefit from you. Most likely if your poor, some will treat you, as if your are just a rug or the worse term, garbage.
Not much will really care for you if your poor. Sometimes someone will show an act of generousity to poor people, just for publicity purpose. Just for fame to be use in election, in example, or for profit earning purpose (Uploading videos, for paid contents).
After all of that, how come it's going to be a blessing?
This will need a broad thinking to understand.
If your poor, you will have less or no friend at all. But one of the best things, if you have some or have even just one, chance is you have a true friend. One true friend is highly valuable than thousands of fake friends. That one true friend will surely be there, not just for anything, but for the reason, that it is you.
Since poor people don't have anything much, sometimes, what matters for them, are just to have food to eat and a simple place to rest, especially during night time. Some don't even have physical beds, the floors are just enough.
Which means?
They don't bother thinking of loosing material things. Sleeping soundly and carelessly. Poor people tend to have higher chance of having peace of mind. Which is very hard to attain, if there's so much material things, you are worrying that it may be stolen, especially when you're about to sleep.
A very satisfying normal sleep, for me, is worth more than money can buy. Why? Because if you have enough or right length of sleep, it's one way of protecting your health or health investment, especially the brain area. If you're brain had been damaged, your doom. Remember "Heath is Wealth!"
Poor people don't have much money or don't have money at all to buy fancy foods. Most likely, they may eat ice creams, chocolates, cakes, fast foods, fried foods, oily foods, etc, not most of the time. The poorest one, may just getting their food from the garbage, if that's the last option for them.
Which means?
Poor people tend to be less prone from deadly medical conditions, that are usually cause by foods also. Example, heart attack and stroke are triggered by eating too much oily fast foods.
How about that foods from garbage, how come its safe?
Of course, higher chance that it's not safe. But for them that who are always engaging in that situation, cause better choice than stealing, they're immune system becomes stronger. Probably, covid-19 really don't have much effect on them. Looks like, just an ordinary one for them.
And one of the most advantages of being poor?
This maybe unaacceptable to others, but in reality poor people, have faith to God better than rich ones. It's what they called, after life investments. Less money, most of the time, makes one person look for God. The best part, they found true God, based on their acts.
God is everything for them. Most poor people feels, that if you have God in life, it makes life complete. Thus, what's behind poor people's "Peace of mind".
So it's really a blessing, in disguise, after all.
Happy reading!
