Hello everyone, friends...
It's great that we can meet again. I'll share a story about The Diary Game, I hope my friends like it.
It was drizzling outside when I woke up at 5:30 in the morning. Even though the weather was very cold, I immediately got out of bed and went to the bathroom to wash myself and perform ablution to perform the two rakaat dawn prayer and pray to God that my sustenance would be made easy today. In addition, I also prayed to be given a long life, given health and made easy in all matters.
The road was still wet from the rain when I finished opening the door of my photocopy shop and stationery shop. This morning felt very quiet because there were no students going to school because it was a quiet week after taking the final exams for the odd semester. If there were no school activities, it was certain that my place of business would be very quiet from buyers.
When I was about to buy a coffee packet and some pieces of cake for breakfast, a customer came to my place of business wanting to buy what he needed. I hoped that there were many items he wanted to buy so that I could get extra money to pay off my debt. Hopefully after this first customer comes, there will be more customers coming to my place of business today. My first customer came just to top up an internet data package on his prepaid card.
It was true as I suspected that today would be quiet from customers. I spent time playing with my smartphone while lying on the long bench in front of my shop. Occasionally, customers came who just wanted to buy internet data package vouchers, then lay back down in their original place to relieve stress and boredom. At exactly 13:00 I performed the Dhuhur prayer and continued with lunch.
After taking my child to the religious study hall, I went to the garden to take care of the cocoa plants and weed the grass that had grown thickly due to the rainy season. In the garden I worked enthusiastically while hoping that my cocoa trees could produce a lot of fruit. Currently I am diligently taking care of my cocoa plants because the purchase price of the beans is currently expensive.
The two kilograms of cocoa beans that I sell can buy 1 sack of rice measuring 15 kilograms. That's how I work around my income for now. Even if I get additional income through the Steemit platform in the form of STEEM, I have no intention at all to cash it in because I want to invest as much as possible from the results I get. Now I am pursuing the achievement of the second dolphin club.
I set a target by the end of 2024 I can achieve the second dolphin club that I want. But seeing the support given by the current steemit team, it feels impossible for me to achieve that achievement. However, I will never be discouraged to always be active on the steemit platform which is already a part of my life now.
In the evening, after performing the Maghrib prayer and having dinner, I went back to my activities at the photocopy shop and stationery shop. Tonight I met a loyal customer who used to come to my place for various needs, but he has rarely come to my place.
As far as I can remember, the last time he came was about two years ago. He is a former village head in Blang Dalam Tunong Village, Nisam District. After doing activities until 23:00, I closed the door of the photocopy shop to rest for the night.
So that's my short The Diary Game for today, that's all and thank you for taking the time to read my writing and giving me support as encouragement to always present better works.
While writing this daily story, I have done Power-Up on my steemit account as much as 22.111 STEEM, so my Power-Steem has now increased to 7,917.282 STEEM. I always want to increase the amount of Power-Steem even though it feels stuttering, but that does not discourage me because there is no effort that does not produce results. As the saying goes "Little by little, it will eventually become a hill".
KEEP THE SPIRIT UP!!!
