poverty's blessing

We all know poverty's curse and woes but do we know its blessings? Its gifts?

Do not get me wrong. I am not advocating that we should all be poor and not create earth-friendly wealth. That's not the point = )

You think Manny Pacquiao would mesmerize the whole world if he came from a well-to-do family? The magic does not work. Or would Manny Pacquiao even take up boxing if he was from the middle class?= )

What I meant by poverty is this situation where we are placed and the choice is really made clear to us. So clear because there's no other choice but to go through it! = )

Poverty is a place where choice is crystallized. A situation that crystallizes what is it that we truly want! A position where we truly lived!

And once we get through it, we become a better person. A "wholer" person = )

"... why think like mere men?"
