All This Man's Riches Are In This Tricycle

Poverty is everywhere even with rich countries. 
How much more with poor and developing nations? 
Everyday you have to learn to make ends meet 
with the money from your job or your business. 
What more for people 
who have nowhere to stay or go 
and just scavenge the streets to keep going by the day? 

All this man's riches are in this vehicle.

City life is rough and tough 
because you have to pay so many bills. 
Water, electric, house 
as well as food, clothing, etc. 
Fortunate if you have a house 
so you don't have to rent because rent is high. 

But there are amazing people who are able to survive the city 
scavenging the city streets, 
looking for anything to sell to the junk shops. 
Water bottles and plastics, cans and metals 
can earn them some money 
but they have to look for considerable amount 
to make them survive the day. 
It's very tough and hard but they keep doing 
because they can do nothing more. 
They walk long distances every single day throughout the city 
and even under the heat of the sun. 
Most, if not all, of them 
are never been in school or just finished grade school. 
No houses to go home to, 
with parents and relatives who are as poor as they are. 
And at the end of each day, 
you'll find them on the sidewalks, 
sleeping under some buildings or structures, 
battling mosquitoes and other insects the whole night. 

Eliminating poverty has always been a dream 
of every government 
but very elusive if not impossible. 
Even the rich nations in the world 
have their issues with poverty 
or lack of food, clothing, shelter and jobs. 

This world has always have poor people and rich people 
I think ever since it was created. 
Fortunate if you were born to a rich family, 
or if you have a nice paying job 
or a booming business. 
But with the rich people, 
always have a heart for the poor and miserable. 
Don't keep your riches to yourselves. 
Always give some to the needy. 
What you give will always come back to you.
