Rising early in the morning to get a head start on the work ahead. Tending to the cows and feeding the animals. Watching the sun rise and hearing the rooster calling. Accompanying the family at breakfast, discussing the day’s tasks, formulating a plan. Bowing ones head, praying for a bountiful harvest. Tending to the fields, sowing the endless rows.
Cultivating the fruits of your labor. Thanking God for your prosperity. Watching a formidable task dwindle like the daylight, enjoying the sunset as you admire your work, hoping for a successful harvest. Providing for your family. Seeing endless smiles, knowing your work is done.. that's what an Amish do.. everyday.. huh.. that's tough for me.
