Life Along the Rural Riverside

When I woke up yesterday morning, I felt that I was being manipulated or pushed by external forces to do some things because I wanted to spend my day off at home, but due to unexpected circumstances, I had to go out to process some job-related papers for renewal. So I indeed went to the town to start processing the said papers, and before that, I went to the riverside to relieve myself from disappointment as well as to free myself from being pressured. There, the coolness of the air relaxes my senses, and the simple way of life makes me inspired and motivated. As we stopped along the shady part of the river, I noticed that a fisherman aboard his bamboo raft cast his gillnet in the calm water of the river. I also saw carabaos brought by their owner to the river and placed under the shade of a bamboo grove to free the animals from the heat of the sun. There is also a hanging bridge, which is only designated for people to convey their goods to the other side of the river and vice versa. on both sides of the river. Rice plants, corn, and peanuts are planted on plots located on both sides of the river, and in some places nearby, tobacco plants can also be seen.
