Sun rises at the east again and giving warmth to all places over the world. I open my eyes today and I saw the rays of the sun hitting the wall in my room, creating an atmosphere full of positivity. This is all I need to see when waking up in the morning and to be honest with you it creates a unique vibe within myself that helps me to start the day and end it with less stress. It may be just a simple matter to someone out there but for me it 's a big thing already and can be addictive if you can truly appreciate it. Other people see some kind of things in a simple way and can appreciate it very much while there are people who can't and I don't want to be like them because at the end of the day those great things are nothing for we all die and turn to ashes.
I don't really know why other people still wants to be more rich even if they can harm others for the sake of their own intention. Well in my mind I think they just want to secure their future so that they will retire early or in other way they are drowning in their own greed. Aiming for a better life is good but I just want to remind you that while trying to achieve it make sure that you can't trouble other people because it's not a good sight no matter how you see it. We have our own agenda in life and I hope that we focus in doing good things than doing those unnecessary things that will only drag others to the door of hell.
As for me, we are having a simple life here in the province, waking up each morning hearing those beautiful music coming from various kinds of birds. But what really wakes us up in the morning here in far flung areas is the high pitch coming our rooster. In early civilization when clock is not yet invented, people use the crowing of the rooster as their basis of time. From what I observed regarding the behaviour of our rooster, it will crow around 12 am midnight. Can you imagine the body clock of this awesome creature, it wakes up so early just to serve as a clock. Well I don't really know if it's really awake because all I can hear is it's sound. Regardless of it's state when it crow, it's unique ability is truly remarkable. Baing able to hear the rooster's crow is really one of the things I'm thankful for having a simple life.
What I also like in having a simple life and can be addictive is having a sound sleep without any disturbance here in the province except when our neighbor will do it's favorite thing, playing music with the volume to the max. It can be really annoying to have neighbors like this one but it's fun because it makes our lives interesting char. haha.
What's more addictive in having a simple life here in the province is that you can breathe fresh air and not a poluted one just like those in cities. Also one of things I'm addicted to while having this life is farming. Yes you read it right. Here you can create a simple farm in your backyard , plant it with various vegetables then wait for it. Later on you'll harvest fresh vegies came from your garden. In cities you can't do that but if you really want to you can really do it. By having a simple farm planted with various kind of edible foods, your life will be easier. You can also make profit through your harvest.
You can be addicted also in witnessing such wonderful sights nearby. You can discover unique creatures which you can't normally see in cities. Just a while ago after I ate my dinner, I noticed something in the wall then I lighted it to see it clearly then I saw a beautiful creature. I can't resist myself not to capture it so here it is. I don't know if it's new because as you can see in the picture at the lower part there's a cocoon.
Moving on I've been busy these past few days because we harvested our rice in the farm and I need to assist my father and lolo. We had a good harvest this cropping but as I always mentioned in my past articles, the prize can be heart breaking. We sold our newly harvested rice with the price of 15.50 per kilo. The prize in the past months herw was 17 pesos per kilo but it decreased to almost 2 pesos. Farmers don't have the advantage to what is happening now. We are in a big disadvantage in their game. What I'm thinking is what if the goverment will make a law that will make the prize for newly harvested rice to be in fixed state. The goverment are not really making laws that are truly in favor to farmers and it's just so saddening. Hoping to have a better change and this nation will be great again.
