Spring!! Flowers!!!

They are not Sakura flower.

They are Ume flower.

Sakura and Ume are

different name for beauty of spring time.

Beauty and The Beast

 

When there is honey, there are bees

Where there is sugar, there are ants

Where there is a tree, there are caterpillars

Where there is beauty, there will be hungry fox waiting behind bushes ….

Born, Cry, Die

They stay under the soil for almost 7 years, just to live for 7 days, then die.

That is why they cry all the time since sun shines from the morning till the sun sets.

Why … O … Why 

(that bug is called Semi in Japan, the bug that fills the summer air with its crying)

The Bug Fighter

Bull fighter. Cock fighter. Human fighter. 

Bug fighter.

Just to satisfy the ‘animal instinct’ inside us.

The Teeth

This caterpillar really reminds me of my beloved mother. When I was still living in my sweet hometown far … far .. away …. we had a small garden. My mother loves flowers. And her hands really are ‘green’ hands. It is like any plants can grow from her hands. 

Usually women don’t like caterpillar, don’t want to touch them. If they see one, they will scream, asking someone else to remove the creature. But not my mother. She can take, remove, or even kill caterpillar that is eating leaves in her beautiful small garden. 

One flower that grew beautifully in my mother small garden was Kenanga. Beside has beautiful and fragrance flowers, Kenanga also has special caterpillar. Just like this one. Only different size. The caterpillar I found under the table in the forest was 5 times bigger than the caterpillar my mother usually removed from her flowers. I really want to know my mother reaction if she meets this giant caterpillar. 

And please look at those teeth. I wonder, if in the forest (not forest in Amazon or Kalimantan of course, much much smaller than them, let’s say around 10.000m2) there are 1000 giant caterpillars, what will happen with the leaves? And with that size, how big butterfly it will be?

The Stings

If you like sea, and swimming in it, be aware of these sea creatures. It looks harmless, but actually it can make you paralyze a little or more only with its ‘gentle’ touch.

But, still, it is cute, isn’t it??

The Abbyss

I hope I wrote it right, The Abbyss. It is a title of a movie, a very interesting movie about ‘another living thing’ in this universe.

Those transparent creatures called jellyfish reminded me of that movie. Maybe I want to see it again, one or two more times.

Let’s (Look) Slow

So why in rush? Take your time, my friends. Fate will not go anywhere ……

 

But, the slow doesn’t work when it comes to the belly business!

Mentally Ill

I got some ‘heart’ attack last Monday night. Then I decided to go to ICU, because the attack was nearly at 00.34. 

The doctor said there was nothing wrong with my heart. Then he suggested me to see the other specialist the next day.

Do you know what kind of specialist doctor I should see?

Mental doctor!

Well, proverb says that in a healthy body lies a healthy mental. Maybe, that proverb doesn’t work for me …….. 

Well, sweet stresses, don’t hold me too strong. Give me my own space to breath. 

Here Raise The Bugs!

Spring almost gone. Summer almost come. And the bugs …. They attack me without mercy! I don’t like bugs!

  

Well, garden with many big trees is paradise for … bugs!

My husband always suggests me, hold yourself! For the sake of your daughter! Okay … I will try …. I will!

 

 

 

They even making the next generation in my garden!

Creeping, crawling, like there is no other business but theirs!

 

 

I should be grateful to them. because eventhough they make my skinhair stand, actually they make my garden more beautiful, and alive. And they also allow me to be the part of their life ……. The Bug’s Life!
