(Brave woman , from Mount Umbaran , Indonesia) Grandma Seeker Firewood

Grandma Seeker Firewood

In this modern era, everything is fast-paced and sophisticated. It used to cook with firewood, and then developed using a kerosene stove, natural gas capitalize upon growing again.

For rural people, who have not been touched by modernization, or because poverty can not afford to buy kerosene and natural gas, cooking using firewood is the best choice .

Sticks which are found around the forest, can be used as firewood. When I was in labor camps in Mount Umbaran, Indonesia, I saw an old woman walking down the hill.


A piece of cloth tied on his back . Inside there is a fabric timber that small twigs just search and collect him in the woods on the hill
 

Sad indeed see him. He is as old as it is, almost 70 years old has struggled searching for and collecting firewood, both for cooking be used alone or back rest sold to earn a little money.

I saw the old woman hobbled. Old legs look a bit unsteady transport of firewood. His face was flushed, probably due to the sun or in pain due to weight-bearing.

I chased him increasingly away. I gave some money to his pieces. With a smile , he was grateful. I smiled. Indeed, God has established a loyal human way of life.
