Among the tranquil green grass, I managed to spot a Javan lynx spider, busily moving from one leaf to the next, carefully. Oddly, it didn't wander far, it kept circling in the same spot. Perhaps it was about to build its web there. As it passed over the long grass leaves, I noticed what appeared to be thread sprouting from its rear.
I kept watching wherever he went, but unfortunately he no longer took out the thread. It continued to walk on some nearby leaves. Perhaps it was checking to see if the spot was safe for its web. I lingered near the spider for over ten minutes, but it didn't begin building its home. It seemed as if it didn't want me to witness its construction. One thing I admire about this spider, even though it didn't want me to see it build its home, is that it didn't move away or hide behind the leaves, it simply paced back and forth on some leaves.
Behind its calm demeanor, there was something that touched my heart. It was no longer perfect, one of its legs was missing. But he never complained, he kept working to find snacks to fill his stomach. I learned one life lesson from this spider, beneath its seemingly fragile frame lies a resilient determination.
