Lessons from Grass

Hi, Steemian all, how are you today? Hopefully always healthy and creative at work.
This time I wrote about grass. Grass is a food source for other creatures. Livestock and herbivores and omnivores also consume them, including humans in them. Grass is also used by humans for various needs. The soccer field requires grass so that players can feel comfortable while playing. Grass is also used to beautify the surroundings around the house. A house whose yard is overgrown with well-manicured grass becomes greener and makes its inhabitants live comfortably.
Grass has a big role in life. As a source of energy, oxygen and beauty, grass is always needed by other creatures. Soils overgrown with grass can prevent erosion. Water does not immediately crush the soil and soak into the soil better. Of course it will be different if the land does not have vegetation. The water that came directly hit the ground and eroded it. Likewise if the grassy soil is replaced with concrete. Of course it will reduce water catchment areas which eventually become one of the causes of floods.
But we also have to be able to control the grass so that it doesn't grow wild and not maintained. That way, we will be able to see more beauty and benefits.
Seeing this reality we must be able to take lessons from the grass.

spirit of the grass


As intelligent and virtuous beings we must be able to take lessons from the grass. There are some values that we can learn from grass such as:
1. Give benefits
As humans, we must benefit others. Wherever we are, we should be able to contribute to the good. With the kindness that we do, we will be able to be human beings who are useful to themselves and their environment. Don't let our existence disturb other people, so that we will be opposed to other people.

2. Not easily provoked emotions.
As with grass, we must be able to resist emotions. Just look at the grass he trampled but never protested. He still accepted even though he knew that what he experienced was unpleasant.
If we apply it to ourselves, we are expected to not rush to give a negative response if we are slandered, gossiped or hostile. Look for the truth first and then we can take action or comment it.

3. Don't despair.
Look, how the grass during the dry season will dry out but not die. When it rains it will grow again. See also when the shepherd cuts the grass the next day it will grow again. We hope this can be modeled together. Keep trying hard and don't give up when facing obstacles. Behind difficulties there will always be convenience and lessons for us.

Those are some lessons that we can take from grass. Thus my writing this time hopefully will benefit all of us.

Thank you for reading my post. I hope you enjoy it.

Pelajaran dari Rumput

Hai steemian semua bagaimana kabarnya hari ini? Semoga selalu sehat dan kreatif berkarya.
Kali ini saya menulis tentang rumput. Rumput merupakan sumber makanan bagi makhluk lainnya. Hewan ternak dan herbivora seta omnivora juga mengonsumsinya, termasuk manusia di dalamnya. Rumput juga dimanfaatkan oleh mansusia untuk berbagai kebutuhan. Lapangan sepak bola membutuhkan rumput agar bisa pemain merasa nyaman saat bermain. Rumput juga digunakan untuk memperindah lingungan sekeliling rumah. Rumah yang halamannya ditumbuhi rumput yang terawat baik jadi lebih hijau dan membuat penghuninya hidup dengan nyaman.
Rumput memiliki peran besar dalam kehidupan. Sebagai penghasil sumber energi, oksigen dan keindahan, rumput selalu dibutuhkan oleh makhluk lain. Tanah yang ditumbuhi rumput dapat mencegah erosi. Air tidak langsung mengggerus tanah dan meresap ke dalam tanah lebih baik. Tentu akan berbeda jika tanah tidak ada vegetasinya. Air yang datang langsung menghantam tanah dan mengikisnya. Demikian juga jika tanah berumput diganti dengan beton. Tentu akan mengurangi daerah resapan air yang pada akhirnya menjadi salah satu penyebab bencana banjir.
Tapi kita juga harus bisa mengontrol rumput agar tidak tumbuh liar dan tak terawat. Dengan begitu, maka kita akan bisa melihat keindahan dan manfaat yang lebih banyak.
Melihat kenyataan ini kita harus bisa mengambil pelajaran dari rumput.

Semangat rumput


Sebagai makhluk yang berakal dan berbudi kita harus bisa mengambil pelajaran dari rumput. Ada beberapa nilai yang bisa kita pelajari dari rumput seperti:
1.Memberi manfaat
Sebagai manusia kita harus memberi manfaat bagi orang lain. Di mana pun kita berada harus bisa memberi andil kebaikan. Dengan kebaikan yang kita lakukan maka kita akan bisa menjadi manusia yang berguna bagi diri dan lingkungannya.Jangan sampai justru keberadaan kita mengganggu orang lain, sehingga kita akan dimusuhi orang lain

2. Tidak mudah terpancing emosi.
Seperti halnya rumput, kita harus bisa menahan emosi. Lihat saja rumput dia diinjak-injak tapi tak pernah protes. Ia tetap menerima meski ia tahu bahwa yang ia alami tidak menyenangkan.
Kalua kita terapkan pada diri kita kita diharapkan tidak buru-buru memberikan respon negatif jika kita difitnah, digosipkan atau dimusuhi. Cari kebenarannya dulu baru kita bisa bersikap.

3.Tidak putus asa.
Lihatlah, bagaimana rumput saat kemarau dia akan mengering tapi tidak mati. Begitu hujan turun maka ia akan tumbuh lagi. Lihat pula saat penggembala memangkas rumput esoknya akan tumbuh lagi. Semangt ini bisa kita teladani bersama. Tetap berusaha keras dan jangan menyerah saat menghadapi rintangan. Di balik kesulitan akan selalu ada kemudahan dan pelajaran bagi kita.

Itulah beberapa pelajaran yang bia kita ambil dari rumput. Demikian tulisan saya kali ini semoga memberi manfaat bagi kita semua.

Terima kasih telah membaca postingan saya. Saya berharap anda menikmatinya.
