Answer:
This story affects me because it shows how people can be poor, but still have a good work ethic. In the declaration of Independence, "life, liberty, and the pursuit of happiness," is true, but not for all people. Some people seek happiness, but never truly find what they are looking for, in this case, poor people are ALWAYS seeking happiness, but never obtain it because they will always be poor, this is just the way that it was meant to be. There will be reality, real life and people will never truly find happiness. On the other hand, there is ideal, the person who works hard and receives happiness in return. So many people take for granted the gift of happiness. Others see its beauty and appreciate it. Poor people appreciate happiness more because of the fact that they have to work harder to obtain it. Barbara Ehrenreich's "Serving in Florida" gives a detailed description of this.
