56. Many cultures...

Edited on Sat Oct-18-03 10:31 AM by liberalmuse

do not believe they live in 'poverty'. They don't define their worth or happiness with how much material resources they have, like we do here in America. In fact, some of the most 'impoverished' tribes/villages have the most content and happy people on earth. They see Americans and wonder why we rarely smile. I guess we shouldn't try to define other cultures using our limited worldviews, huh? To many of these same cultures, the American way of life is considered soulless.
