Was lencho from a letter to god ungrateful?
Lencho is a poor man whose crop has been ruined. He has asked god to give him 100 pesos for the entire year so that he does not starve. He is not angry with god when he realises the money he has received is 30 pesos short of the total amount he has asked for. He is justifiably upset with the postmen, as he believes they have stolen money from a poor, hungry man.
He is naive to have asked god for money, and is perhaps not necessarily grateful, but i believe that he had every right to react the way he did.
As someone who has grown up in a country where our religion is the basis of our culture, i can understand how religion has been so deeply ingrained into him to the point where he thinks that god does not let anyone starve.
I used the analogy that, if you were a starving person and received a ration of bread that had been eaten from, would you too not be angry? Is it not justifiable to be upset in such a situation?
