Hi Ladies, have you had a good day? May you always be filled with happiness.
Tonight, on the sidelines of my daily activities, I remembered about the contest held by Ladies of Hive. A few days ago I was mentioned by my friend Titis to join this contest as well. Seeing an interesting theme, I am happy to participate in this contest.
One Week of Life Without Electricity?
Of all the themes in the ladies of hive contest this week, I prefer to live a week without electricity.
I think a week without electricity is still much better than a week without water.
Living without electricity reminds me of an area in remote Karawang. There stood a school that was still in charge of another school during the national exams.
Bumi Pertiwi Elementary School, stands to unite children in the Wanajaya environment that is not touched by electricity.
Even for school they have to pass through the valley, the road is steep for hours on foot. Not to mention if it rains heavily, the terrain is twice as dangerous. It often happens that volunteers who are not used to passing through the field fall from their motorbikes or fall on the road.
Can We Survive Without Electricity?
Seeing how the children and the community in Wanajaya have survived until now, I think living without electricity is not a problem. We can still use other alternatives.
Ramadan 2019,
I know this place for the first time. Sign up to be a volunteer when an iftar is held with the students of SD Bumi Pertiwi.

I was shocked at first. Certain? In 2019 in Karawang which is famous for its magnificent malls and industrial cities, are there still remote places where there is no electric lighting?
And that is right. The Remote Areas of the Earth Reading Park, a Reading Garden that was founded by Ms. Yuni, et al. really helps the continuity of learning here.
By providing teaching volunteers, volunteer photographers to further explore activities, and collecting donations for school supplies, uniforms and building public facilities such as wells, toilets, and other things needed.

All done by empowering human kindness.
And having been a part of them even for a while, I feel happy.
I hope that in the future the children who still have difficulty reading and counting there will be well resolved.

Because what is more important than living without electricity is living with science and knowledge.
Desire to be a tireless learner and give up.
LOH
See you in another post.
