It immediately struck them that the kids were happy. And they had no material possessions. No shoes. No technology. But they were playing, and laughing and smiling. So what do they have that makes them so happy? There are only 50 people who lived in the village. (As an aside, the men are allowed multiple wives so we know why they are happy). I would have to think it's the strength of their relationships. Their community. While we don't live in a village at home, I am grateful for the community we have landed ourselves in. Not just neighbours but true friends.
That's my thought of the day!
