FROM MORNING TO EVENING AND TO MORNING AGAIN

so much to do and so fun to do it
the seedling that will be planted in a week time
Fun fun fun is the word for me to do things at the farm. Since young Peggy and I are enjoying plans and flowers. Cleaning and planting at the garden or a farm is an easy and enjoyable thing to do. May be because of our common interest we were well bonded until now ha ha ha .
With our success on the first harvest I am confident that we shall not only capable of reaching the self sufficient stage but we can also produce some for helping others. It has been done that we were only taking 1/3 of the harvest and the 2/3 was given away to the people who are in need. For this preparation of planting the second batch of paddy, not we are only certain with the out come but the joy that we will be having upon the next harvest has been felt now. Praise The Lord that we are made to be capable to have the land which we bought it for cheap but God has made it to be so fertile and useful upon to do His work. It was cheap because for a long time people considered the land was not a good soil as there wasn’t any water source except the very short rain yearly.
Anyway we were working hand in hand with the orphanage members , young and old. Knowing that the harvest will be for our own benefit and others , all of us so eagerly working at the farm. In fact all of the orphans always competing to be included for the farm trip. When we are at the farm , we do not choose what to be done but we just do whats not being done. All of us can work with the tractor, with the parang ( big long knife) cleaning the farm and cutting grass for the cow or any thing at all.
For every meals that we were having it feels so good , even though not much of variety of its side dishes , we always happy for knowing that the food that we are consuming was our own harvest. We are eating our own corn , our own rice, our own Kang Kong and our own beans. May be it seemed to be too ordinary for you but if we are thinking about all of them are organic one may be you will have a different angle to think about it. Praise The Lord that the water that God has sent to us is not only free all year long but it is also like watering the farm with tons of mineral water. No pollution and free flowing all year long.
For the fun that we were having , we were staying at the farm for 2 days . Sleeping at the farm with proper tents and equipment was making us so close to the nature yet we are free from the mosquito and other insects. We were bringing two generators and some cooking equipments. It was so good. At night we were entertained by the melodious tune from one of the worker who plays violin, from the frogs and the crickets. By early morning the birds we were taking its turn to sing for us.
all of us are involved
simply just corn , beans, Kang Kong and some anchovies but all are organic ones
great to eat all organic food every day

Syalom pak Budi dan Ibu Peggy
Selama kurang lebih 2 jam melihat dan membaca pengalaman-pengalaman Pak Budi dan Ibu Peggy serta anak-anak di ‘rumah’ roslin, ternyata……wah, Tuhan Begitu Baik! banyak orang dapat mengatakan ini, namun tidak mampu mensharingkan itu lewat perbuatan. tapi pak BUdi dan Ibu Peggy mampu melakukannya. rasanya tidak percaya, melihat seorang Pilot membajak sawah. yang biasanya terbang melintasi cakrawala, seakan menguasai dunia, mau melepaskan segala atribut dan membagi pengalaman kemanusiaan dengan orang yang membutuhkan. luar biasa! teruskan perjuangan Pak Budi dan Ibu Pegy, segala jerih payah tidak sia-sia dan itu sudah terbukti berlipat-lipat kali ganda, hampir-hampir tidak terhitung. dan dari setiap bibir anak-anak akan terungkap kesaksian yang hidup, dan dari nurani mereka akan terus berdoa dan bersyukur karena Allah memberikan mereka dua orang tua yang Mengasihi mereka apa adanya…..
Pak Budi dan Ibu Pegy, saya ingin bergabung dengan apa adanya saya. tidak ada kemampuan yang wah, tapi melihat visi ‘Togetherness is our strength” maka apabila berkenan, saya pun ingin menjadi bagian dari anak-anak di ‘rumah’ roslin. tidak ada latar belakang guru, tetapi saya mau melakukan sesuatu bersama. well, let us see what we can do together…….i’ll try to do my best.
terima kasih Pak BUdi
