Global Warming??

I think this is the first time I don't like rain. It supposes to be dry season, not that I like this particular season but it's just weird! I am just thinking that it might be the global warming that plays on this change.

Looking out the window, I saw the rain pouring down so hard. It feels like a December, the month when we got a lot of rain. I am not sure when this going to stop, I hope soon because I am hungry.

The Javanese people refer rain with blessing, so whenever there is rain during the wedding or circumcision party we believe that many blessings will be poured upon the new couple or the boy. It make sense though, we live in a tropical island where sun shines throughout the year. Most Javanese rely their lives on the traditional farming and rain helps irrigate the farmlands. In the past, the dry season and the rainy season always came right on time, six months to be exact for each season. The six-month period has been existed for a long time that formed the current farm systems. The dry season is the time to plants and the rainy season is the time to harvest.

The change has been going on for a couple of years, although this is the first time I notice it. It is difficult for the farmers when rain comes during the rainy season, it will destroy the seeds they have just planted. I am not sure whether there is any solution to deal with this change. But I hope the government has some plans to help the farmer on this situation.
