what poverty gives us

I have seen "Little Shoes" before, and recently I wanted to relive the story of the little brother and sister living in poverty again, so I downloaded one with BT. The story not only moved the audience, even if they themselves, when they grew up, remembered the story of a pair of shoes from the past, I am afraid they have to say it with laughter and tears. If you are a child of a rich family, you probably won't have such an experience. When they grow up, they may only remember where to go to play together, and more than the loneliness of childhood, like the little girl in the villa in the movie.
As the old saying goes, "the children of the poor are in charge of the family early." In the face of poverty, they experience the hardships of life earlier, better understand how to cherish rare things, and be more considerate of others. Ali and his sister, discovering that the girl who wore their shoes also had a difficult family, silently gave up claiming it. And that little girl picked up the ballpoint pen that Ali gave to her sister. Although she liked it, she still returned it to the owner. Because she also knew how rare ballpoint pens are, and knew that it would bring happiness to others. Allah (the God of Islam) will bless them with their diligence and wisdom to change their lives when they grow up, so that the children who grow up will not spoil the gift of Allah. This is the child of the kingdom of heaven.
I also usually think of my childhood life. Although I spent it in material poverty, all I think of is happiness. Many things, maybe in a rich life, are nothing, but in a poor day, it will be a surprise. Maybe this has become a way of life for me, and every time I have the opportunity to live a very prosperous life, I feel bored. Material wealth makes people degenerate, becomes more greedy, numbs people, loses their souls, and falls into the quagmire of enjoyment.
Matter is the bait thrown by the devil to keep us away from the world of God. God has given us the food for survival, and we will naturally live well, without having to go to great lengths, or even seek money to harm others, in the end, we will be harmed by greed and human nature will be distorted, how can we realize that life belongs to human beings? precious.
What can wealth give us? I think what wealth can give us is to help others, so that we will not be selfish, unkind to the rich, and will not be children of hell.
