[quote=Anonymous]I grew up in extreme poverty. I absolutely agree with you, OP. Use it, enjoy it, and share that joy. On the other hand, it's worth recognizing that -- for some people -- the having of it becomes a gift in itself. It's a comfort. People sometimes like knowing there are treasures secreted away, and they might (sometimes) enjoy that as much as they would enjoy the things themselves. I don't know if you can understand, if you haven't lived through the harder parts of it. But it's like having a pantry filled with golden fruits you grew and jarred yourself. You don't have to be eating them to enjoy the knowledge that you went from want to having, and you did that for yourself. You don't ever have to go without. Of course, you end up going without if you don't use it! :) But you [i]could[/i]. That [i]could[/i] is a really meaningful gift for some people to give themselves, too.[/quote]
