Welcome to my house. Hope you enjoy your stay. Doesn't look like much to hope for, does it? Poverty never offers much hope. In fact, poverty has a tendency to take grasp of one's hope and squeeze it into permanent submission. It projects such an intimidating and unattractive image of one's past state that it's almost impossible for a person to see beyond where they've been. It not only holds the present company's hope hostage, but it also steals and withholds hope from their offspring for generations to come. I've learned that economists call this the "Cycle of Poverty." I've also learned that the cycle can be broken.
