Has anyone here ever lived in poverty? If so, what do/did you feel when the topic of poverty comes up?

I honestly cant say ive ever experienced poverty. And I'm thankful for that. I give to those in need especially children. I dont want to see any child grow up with less than so ive bought clothing, beds, any thing that you can think of for children in need. Every Christmas im buying toys for strangers, coats, gloves, blankets etc...there was an old man walking in my neighborhood we had a hurricane some months back i found out where he lived and took over food and supplies and my generator. I told my husband we can sit in the dark for him it may mean life or death to HIM. Im thankful to be in a position to help others.
