( a retelling of a tale heard from an elderly woman in Toyosato, the north-western part of what is now Tsukuba City)
These days, with all the modern machinery and know-how, young people growing up in rice-farming families have it easy. They have no idea how much time we had to spend or what back breaking labor we had to endure to finally reap in our crop of rice. Yes, it`s hard for my grandkids to try and understand what life was like when I, their old granny, was a young girl. They certainly could not imagine what things were like back in the days when MY OWN granny was young.
