It's true, we are all "wretched, pitiful, poor, blind and naked," but we spend a lot of time and energy trying to convince other people and ourselves that we're doing alright. People even try to convince themselves that they have a good life because God has blessed them, when Jesus says that the poor are the blessed ones.
So, does that mean we're all supposed to become financially destitute? No, but it does mean that we should realize what's true - that we already are poor. Then, we should start acting like it. Poor people are grateful for what they do have and they have a knack for realizing what's important in life. They also use what they have to help others because they know what it's like to need a hand. If you're poor, you don't mind being around other poor wretches and you know that anything you have can be taken from you in an instant.

Heed! Move! Now!
"Look at the size of that boy's heed! It's like an orange on a toothpick! That's a huge noggin! It's a virtual planetoid! It has it's own weather system. I'm not kidding, that boy's head is like Sputnik - spherical but quite pointy at parts! Now that was offside, wasn't it? He'll be crying himself to sleep tonight...on his huge pillow."
Hauling around a gargantuan cranium has its downsides (like when you have to fetch things like "the paper"), but it also has its advantages, one of which is ample processing space.
