Coconut Quest
Naration (limerick in haiku):
Two brothers with glee,
Coconuts high in the tree,
One laughs, irony.
Vernacular architecture in the image:
Lake Toba, a vast caldera in northern Sumatra, is home to the Batak Toba people who reside around the lake and on Samosir Island. This region showcases the unique Rumah Bolon architecture—a traditional, boat-shaped dwelling. The curving roof ridge, rising higher at the back, symbolizes a heartfelt wish for descendants to surpass their predecessors in success and prosperity.
Words of Wisdom:
Complacency is a continuous struggle that we all have to fight. - Jack Nicklaus
It’s saying that complacency—getting too comfortable or content with the way things are—can stop us from growing, improving, or facing challenges head-on. If we let our guard down or avoid pushing ourselves, we risk stagnating. Life, after all, is full of opportunities to evolve, but it takes effort and awareness to keep striving and not settle for less than our best.
