As it was flying around, it suddenly spotted a pitcher with a little water at the bottom. The crow excitedly flew down to the pitcher and tried to reach the water with its beak. But alas, the water level was too low, and the crow’s beak couldn’t reach it.
The clever crow then thought of a plan. It picked up small pebbles from the ground and started dropping them into the pitcher, one by one.

A long time ago, there lived on the island of Bali a giant-like creature named Kbo Iwo. The people of Bali used to say that Kbo Iwo was everything, a destroyer as well as a creator. He was satisfied with the meal, but this meant for the Balinese people enough food for a thousand men.
Difficulties arose when for the first time the barns were almost empty and the new harvest was still a long way off. This made Kbo Iwo wild with great anger. In his hunger, he destroyed all of the houses and even the temples. It made the Balinese turn to rage.
So, they came together to plan steps to oppose this powerful giant by using his stupidity. They asked Kbo Iwo to build them a very deep well, and rebuild all the houses and temples he had destroyed. After they fed Kbo Iwo, he began to dig a deep hole.
One day he had eaten too much, he fell asleep in the hole. The oldest man in the village gave a sign, and the villagers began to throw the limestone they had collected before into the hole. The limestone made the water inside the hole boiling. Kbo Iwo was buried alive. Then the water in the well rose higher and higher until at last it overflowed and formed Lake Batur. The mound of earth dug from the well by Kbo Iwo is known as Mount Batur.

It was a beautiful Saturday morning, and I decided to spend the day at the park. As I strolled through the park, I saw families playing with their children, couples walking hand in hand, and people of all ages enjoying the fresh air.
I found a nice spot to sit and brought out a book to read. As I read, I couldn’t help but notice the sounds and smells around me. The chirping of the birds, the rustling of the leaves, and the scent of freshly cut grass all filled my senses.
After a while, I put down my book and decided to take a walk. I passed by a group of children playing soccer and stopped to watch for a while. Their energy and enthusiasm were contagious, and I found myself cheering them on.
As I continued my walk, I saw an old man sitting on a bench, watching the world go by. I stopped to chat with him, and he told me stories about his life and his experiences in the park over the years.
As the day turned to evening, I sat on the grass and watched the sun set behind the trees. It was a simple and peaceful day, but it was filled with moments that I would always treasure.
