Mr.Joy & Mr.Sorrow

Mr.Joy asked Mr.Sorrow-why do you dwell in the abode of poverty?
Sorrow answered-its a misconception.
Its not a matter of any place in particular.
I dwell in the abode of poverty as the people out there are not ashamed of me.
Its through me that they take into account your importance.
And even if you do not visit them they constantly remember you and wait for you to come.
But I also visit the ''well to do'' people.
They are unwelcoming and try to hide my arrival at their place.
But I still go there as I know your visit over there is also not for a long period.
Still they treat you like a VIP.
They only talk of you,display your gifts to people.
Hence, I suggest you to visit the abode of poverty where you are eagerly awaited for.
and let me visit the rich to make them consider your importance.
