Water is H20
Planting rice is never fun. True, so true it's a backbreaking work. Hard work!! The hardest work ever. Imagine having to plant under the heat of the sun and your legs submerged on muddy water. Please wear boots and wear gloves for your hands. How you bend your body to reach the muddy/soil to plant those younger stalks of palay, omg! It's not a laughing matter. How about doing the same thing as in planting sunflowers? How many seedlings you had? Let say about fifty to hundreds? I was just transferring the younger seedlings to a different location (on another bedflower right beside the fence) and I found it hard to stand up after bending my body to reach the soil. It's crazy! My legs got wobbly, trembling as if I'm gonna faint but I was able to hold unto the wooden fence. Yikkess! Next time I will try the kneeling-position or have a small stool with me where I can rest my butt. My goodness, the difficulty. I'm not used to this kind of gardening. Wow! I sweat! I first thought I don't perspire. Suddenly it's warm then it's hot. What the hell. It feels like hell here now.
Now you know how hard and the hardship those farmers are experiencing when they cultivate the soil for agrarian purposes and without the proper tools and machineries then that's really awful and sad for them if they can't sell whatever they produced especially when pests such as rats, bugs, locusts, famine and other natural disaster that caused too much havoc to their farmlands. And worst of all is when there is no source of water for the irrigation system. All plants thrive because of water. Even human beings thrived because of water.
Astronauts always have that specific plan to explore another planet in search for water. Actually even aliens from other planet are keen on that one and only search for water (re: V the movie). I should watch that movie again eh?
