 Dear My beloved readers

To day I want to tell you  about one of legend in my country, after reading don't forget to give comment

             Long time ago  the two old farmers Ki Ajar and Nyi Ajar lived in a small village. They felt sad, because they did not have a baby. Every night Ki Ajar and Nyi Ajar always prayed to God, until one day they got a baby. But what a surprise, their baby is not an usual baby, it was a snake. Nyi Ajar was very confused and afraid. She cried to God " Oh my God, you're  very almighty, you gave us  a baby, but why is it not  really baby, Oh God why did you give   us   a snake ? I don't care boy or girl, but why it's a snake ? Oh God I don't like  a snake, I'm afraid of snake " Ki Ajar  gave the baby's name Baru Klinting, and they suggested to move to mount Sileker.

              Times  went by, the spirit of snake  came into a small boy. Baru Klinting  went arround the vilage to  look some food, but no body cared him, every body who meet ,hated him, no body  like him."Hi" Baru Klinting  greeted some boys while were playing in the yard. One of the boy named Sastro responded his greeting., " Hi. who are you, we do not know you, please go to the mountain ". Baru Klinting tried to be patient " I am Baru Klinting from this village, I want to be your friend, and can play with you. Sastro responded proudly " what ? to be our friends ? he..he..he..it's impossible boy, no body like you. Baru Klinting was in emotion and said angrily " OK guys,  I have  a game for you" Satro said " a game ? what game do you mean ? show me, I want to play " The other boy added Sastro's idea " Yea...I agree show your game to us "

             Baru Klinting took  a small stick and put it down on the ground and said " OK guys, please pull my stick out, if you can pull it out, I will go away from you, but if you can't do, you must accept me as your friend." Sastro the big boy said proudly " Is it a game ? it's very easy to do,he..he..he "Sastro tried to pull the stick out, but he couldn't. " ah....uh...it's hard..uh.... I can't " He was backward. The second boy  tried the same thing like Sastro did . Before doing , he said " you are very weak man,  it's just a simple game, OK, I will try, Hello every body see me I want to pull the stick  out  I'm strong ,mmm,  uh.... uh.... oh... He felt down. He had his back hurt. OK the readers what happen ? Could the second boy pull the stick out ? . You're right the second boy couldn't either. All of the boys tried to do, but no body was success to do. Baru Klinting's stick  stood permanently.

           Finally Baru Klinting saw  to all of the boys, while was smiling and said " he...he...he, well guys, all of you could not pull my stick out , it means You must accept me as your friends" In fact all of the boys broke their promise, they did not want to be Baru Klinting's friend. Sastro said " what ?  to be our friend ? no way, we don't want you to be our friends, let's go, leave him alone " Baru Klinting cried " hey wait, before you go I want to see you some thing "Sastro and his friends stop their steps. They wanted to see  what will Baru Kllinting  be done . Baru Klinting pulled his stick by him self easily. Suddenly  from the hole of the stick, the water pulled out. It sprang out fast. No body could not stop it. The water made a big flood. it sank every thing included Sastro and his friends. Now a days the area called Rawa Pening in Semarang central Java Indonesia. Readers from that story we can learn that Don't underestimate some body and keep your promise
