The afternoon breeze blew gently across the golden rice fields while dark clouds slowly gathered in the sky. In the middle of that peaceful scenery, two simple plastic bottles hung quietly on a wooden stick. To some people they may look like useless objects, but for farmers, the sound created by the wind helps keep birds away from the rice plants.
Simple things like this remind me that life in the countryside is always connected to creativity. Not everything valuable has to be expensive. Sometimes, items considered trash can become useful tools in the field. From this, I learned that simplicity often carries its own important value.
Today I spent some time standing beside the rice field, watching the plants move softly with the wind. There was a feeling of calm that is difficult to describe. Behind the hard work, mud, heat, and rain, there is always hope for a good harvest. Farming teaches patience because no result comes instantly.
The cloudy sky made the evening atmosphere feel even more beautiful. Nature seemed to send a message that every process needs time. Just like rice, which must grow slowly before it is finally ready to be harvested.
Hopefully this season will bring good harvests and blessings for all farmers.
