The value of things you see over your lifetime will change from place to place. I have witnessed this in many ways as I have traveled through these many years of my life.
My wife and I have moved our family seven times since being in the print media business. We have joked many times with our friends that we got out of the Air Force because we did not want to move around. However, the Lord had plans for us in several different locations.
I read a great analogy on the price of water one day that really makes sense. What the value of water is depends on where you are and who you are around. You may go to a large distributor of food and buy water as low as .25 cents. The same brand and size of that water may cost you .50 cents in a supermarket. However, if you get the same brand and size bottle of water in a nice restaurant, hotel, or theme park it could cost as much as $3 per bottle and in an airport or aboard a plane could be even more.
