Back-to-basics

How to make a kite

What you need:
- Tracing Paper
- 2 pieces of stick
- Thread
- Rice
- Patience
- Skill

Rice is the substitute for glue in the olden days. Correct me if I'm wrong but I believe that glue wasn't easily available during the old kampung days. So kids during those times used rice to glue their kite pieces together.

Did it work?

Hell yeah it did. I saw it with my own eyes.

Sometimes, our problems do not seek expertise to help solve them. It's a matter of getting to the root of the problem, analysing the situation and start looking for solutions. The solution might be the simplest things that you might have overlook. Who would have thought rice would be able to stick like glue?

At the end of it all, you'd realise that you aren't alone. There's always someone willing to help.

Like how you let go of your kite to make it fly :)
