Someone once said to me; What do you work for? A slightly unique question, tickling and made me a little ringing all day. After the question was asked by my friend, I immediately answered it. Maybe because I can get money.

However, he told me that he prefers a job that makes a lot of money and can buy pleasure. But, I don't think like that. How can you make money without passion for the job. He also told me that he didn't like his job but the money he received was commensurate with what he could get.

His statement made me ponder. What am I doing wrong? Working as a farmer and making a business in the hydroponic sector, but I can be happy with this without making a lot of money. It doesn't mean that as a farmer I don't make money, however, the money I get is not that much, maybe to buy excessive pleasure I can't afford it and it seems I don't need it because one thing I get is the pleasure of working.

Working from morning to evening, doing everything in my garden and wrapping several packages that will be sent to my customers is also something I like. It's not too complicated, getting money and I'm passionate about everything. Is it wrong? Everyone wants happiness from getting money, even though during the process of getting money they are not happy with what they do. So, I prefer to be happy with what I do, at least that happiness and pleasure last longer.

It can be seen from what I do in my garden, I am very happy when I see these tomatoes turn red, communicate with the lettuce that is tilated, and affirmation on some pakcoy that is there and in the afternoon where I can water my vegetables that are really fresh to the eye. I am very, very happy.

Like taking care of a child who is growing well or is in trouble, for example being attacked by pests, sometimes that is also the fun part because you can find out the root of the problem and also solve it. I think, humans cannot eat food without farmers. So, the work of farmers is one of the jobs needed on this earth.

These vegetables will not be able to grow by themselves, even if you just sprinkle seeds on the ground, even to sow seeds you need farmers, right? taking care of everything until it can be consumed is important for food distribution today. Especially in an era that is quite busy with everything that needs to be done quickly. Farmers are very much needed for the survival of many people.

I am proud of my work, even though it is only putting each leaf in a hydroponic box. You know, the happiness I get is incomparable to anything. Moreover, if someone comes to buy, I am even very happy because they can taste the vegetables that I take good care of.
