The morning was very cool, the cool air felt calming and energizing to start the day. After enjoying some relaxing time in front of the house, I immediately got to work sewing caps for religious services. Orders had increased rapidly over the past few days, filling my workspace with piles of fabric and cap patterns waiting to be finished.
The constant sound of the sewing machine seemed to become the rhythm of my daily life. Although this work was starting to feel stressful due to the numerous orders that had to be completed on time, I was still busy.
Towards the afternoon, I moved on to another, equally important task. I began preparing fertilizer for the rice plants in the paddy field. Using only urea and NPK fertilizer, I mixed them in my usual proportions. Once thoroughly mixed, I made two sacks, each weighing about 50 kilograms. The sacks were quite heavy, but they had become part of my routine in managing the farmland.
Once everything was ready, I carried the fertilizer to the rice field, which covered approximately 1,600 square meters. I carried out the sowing process manually, step by step spreading fertilizer between the rows of rice plants that were starting to grow well. Although the work was tiring, there was a certain satisfaction in seeing the fruits of my labor on the land that was my family's livelihood.
As dusk approached, a gentle breeze blew, and the sun slowly began to set in the west signaling the end of a day full of hard work and dedication, involving the stitching of peci (traditional rice caps) and the application of fertilizer in the rice fields.
