Neighbour

You are able to support yourself and your family
You own your house and also have a car
You can afford to go on holiday
And even go out every week
Without putting a major dent in your finances
In other words you live well
Your neighbour however, is not so lucky
He can barely make ends meet
He and his family sometimes go without food
He can’t even afford to take his children to school
Shouldn’t you forgo some of your luxuries and help him?
