Yes, I feel much more humble and grateful now, living in a poor country. Trying to appreciate and respect everyone as equals. Easy to do when you see how hard some work, for almost nothing. Not always easy when you see how they drive, lol. Living here means constantly having to quiet that inner voice and just accept things as they are.
