Reading Eighner changes your feelings about your own material values. You learn that it is not always easy to have a good life as we do. Even having food is hard for him and we just expect that we are always going to have food and nothing is ever going to change that. We care about a lot of material that we do not even need. We buy things that are really unnecessary and this article makes you think about what you really need. I think we should all think about what we would do if we would be homeless and would not have any money and what would be important to us then.
