my concern is not the richest people in the philippines, my question is: who is the poorest person in the philippines? can you give me the top 40?please!
That is the trickiest question I’ve ever heard. It’s just so easy to be poor, abandon your properties, give or donate them to other people, do yourself the most pitiful thing, and you can claim that you’re the poorest person (or Filipino if you’re a Filipino) in the whole world.
But, as Mother Teresa said, the poorest person is not one who is poor at material things, but that of poor in love from other people…
INGGIT LANG KAYO?…
thanks deuts, that was a very clever and inspiring reply. i was’nt expecting that you will give a serious thought about my question. but it was precisely my point,no matter how rich one maybe, we are all the same, we are all wanting. rich people experience the same hurts, the same struggle, the same loneliness ( or even more), just like anybody else’s. being rich or being poor is a decision that we make in life.you are rich or poor depending on how you look at yourself.i could claim that i am the richest person in the whole world, far richer than bill gates, because i am surrounded with love, from my family and friends.i hope everyone of us, no matter what our status in life is, would have an intrinsic happiness, contentment , peace and love in our hearts – that’s what separate the rich from the poor. lastly, let us reflect on what our Lord Jesus says- ” what does it profits a man if he gained the whole world” there’s no need for us to be envious of those richest people in the philippines or the world at large – in the eyes of God we are all poor – He alone is our true wealth. at the end of the day, we would not be asked how much wealth we have accumulated , but how much love we have in our hearts. – peace! your friend from canada
