A pyramid is any object or thing
whose shape is square or triangle at the bottom
that gradually narrows to the top.

The Pyramid-shaped Light
If its bottom is a square,
it will have 4 triangular sides,
and if the bottom is triangular,
only 3 triangular sides are formed.
Unlike a circle which is the same all around,
a pyramid varies in shape all throughout
with a wide bottom and a narrow top.
Hills and mountains are mostly shaped this way
and even the roofs of houses and buildings
have the shape of a pyramid.
The pyramids of Egypt and in Mexico
and in other places in the world
are man-made marvels
that bewilder and mystify
even the greatest minds of our time,
and how they were built, who built them
and what their purposes are
will never be known for a very long time.
Looking at the pyramid closely
reminds us of humanity's placement in society
and in the whole world.
If the whole humanity is a pyramid,
then those on the top are the richest,
those at the bottom are the poorest
and those in the middle are the middle class.
The wider bottom or base means
that there are more poor people
than middle class and rich people.
Because the bottom of the pyramid
supports the middle and the top
and carries the weight of the whole structure,
the poor support the middle class
and the rich the same way.
In other words,
you can never belong
to the middle class or the rich
without the poor.
The middle class
and especially the rich may feel so high
but they have to never forget
that it's the poor who keep them up.
Without the base,
the pyramid can't soar high.
Likewise,
without the poor,
the middle class and the rich
can never be where they are.
To keep the pyramid standing for all time,
the bottom or base should remain intact
and in excellent condition.
There should be no loose stones
or cracked parts that will crumble
and bring the whole structure down.
One little defect can undermine
the integrity of the structure.
In the same way too,
the middle class and the rich
should always think of the poor
as important members of humanity
by helping them in their needs.
Losing them means
losing all that makes them who they are.
And to put in simple words
for the rich and the middle class:
Love the poor
and the poor will love you back
by supporting you like a pillar
so that you will not fall down.
Neglect them and the next thing you know
you fall flat on the ground
and eat the dust as you crawl along.
