LEARN FROM KURMA TREE

Every entering the month of Ramadan, there must be a lot of date sellers. We can buy various dates, from cheap prices to expensive ones. But I just found out that planting dates from seeds is very unique. At the time the seeds are planted, they are then given a stone on them so that when the palm tree sprouts begin to grow, they cannot rise to the surface of the soil. A hard struggle for the sprout to rise to the surface is almost impossible to achieve, but what happens when the sprouts cannot rise to the top. The roots of the sprouts grow very strong inward. After the roots are strong enough, the stones are removed. Finally the palm tree will grow up strongly and quickly because the roots are large enough to take the food in the soil.

When I knew that to grow, palm trees had to fight against stones that prevented the dates from rising up. If there is no stone, it will be eaten by camels. I started reflecting on life, and also imagined my friends who when I was young lived not too lucky. The friends I saw at that time were very lucky because they had a very comfortable life. Many of my friends, when I was a kid, I considered to be less fortunate. But now many lives have their own businesses, even if they work they still have a good career.

Difficulty living in childhood, made my friends learn about life from small. How he can be friends and how they learn to get business opportunities. Difficulties faced by someone will usually give lessons to the person to grow. Growth that occurs in a person is usually unnoticed by the person. The difficulties faced by someone can build themselves to be better. Supposedly when facing such difficulties one must be grateful, because with gratitude the burden faced will be much reduced.

Questions that often arise like at the beginning I feel difficulties or problems in me. I feel why the burden of life is so heavy? After I learned it turned out that the problems we got actually made us stronger. Thus when I get into trouble, the question is what lessons I got from this problem. The next question is how to overcome this problem, what solutions can we get to overcome this problem? After getting a way to solve the problem, then I will focus on the solution. If everything has been resolved I can reflect again, to be grateful for what we have experienced.
