New year's Eve

December 31st 2015, around 8.30 pm.

It was little bit drizzle outside, but people don't mean it. It proved by hundreds people walking along the street, they laugh each other, some of them doing transaction, then deal with smile on their face. Kids asked their mommy to buy bugles, whimpered till crying. Fried food, meat ball, crepes, fried rice, noodle sellers and many more make this market become so crowded. The ones who got the highest income that day are food sellers I bet. Some couples enjoy the night by having a deep talk on the motorcycle. Indistinct, I can hear some fireworks blazing from the other side of gloomy sky, Sounds like joyful evening right?

As the car turns right, my cousins busy to talk about our party on new year's eve, we already bough some corns and fishes from Panorama Market to be baked in our home like what people commonly do. Drizzle is not even stop, I look at the window and saw 3 or 4 old men with their worn out shirts and old hat. Maybe their age are around 50 years old. By using their canes, those men are busy to pick some corn's husk then put it on their own carts, they also grab the trashes that scattered around. Suddenly, my littlest cousin screamed loudly, 'look! beautiful fire works!!' All of us look into the sky and saw red-blue fire works glowing in a dark sky. So I look at the men outside who still busy with the husks and trashes. When I look into their very tired faces, there's nothing such a 'new year's eve'. They don't look into the sky even for a while. I wonder they hear it but too busy to look at or they just don't care at all.
Or the worst is, they thaught..

"This night, everyone look into the sky and laugh happily, there will be no one will notice us, the trashes, the husks, the 'little' dust like us"

Now I realize, the things that make us smile and happy, sometime it means nothing to any other else. So that's why we're not allowed to be extremely happy.

We arrived at home around 9.30 pm.
My brother who don't really interest with the name of 'celebration' asked me, "why do all people celebrate" I wishpered in my heart "you wrong, not all of them" but my mouth answered it by "because everyone love to be happy, every single person is a pleasure seeker"

For some people, maybe having a party is happiness, other else celebrate it with dine and chat with family members, and maybe for those men, this night is a chance to be blessed by God and it's a kind of happiness for them.

12.01 am, 1st January 2016, I just can wish everyone can be happy in their own way and may God bless all of people around the world.

ALL OF WOMEN ARE PRECIOUS

Masih jelas sekali kenangan dulu, kelas 5 SD, saya pernah menampar seorang teman lelaki, karena dia bercanda dengan cara menghalang2i jalan saya ketika hendak pulang ke rumah. Singkatnya, dari dulu saya memang agak sensitif dengan lelaki2 sampah yang suka genit ke cewek-cewek, lelaki yang tidak menghargai dan menghormati wanita sedikitpun. Hingga saya beranjak dewasa, saya sangat sensitif dan marah jika mendengar kasus wanita dibunuh, dianiaya, dilecehkan, atau diselingkuhi. Bagi saya, lelaki sampah macam ini tidak layak untuk menginjak dunia yang dari maha Pencipta saja, sudah diperintahkan untuk memuliakan, meghargai dan menghormati kaum hawa, terbukti dari dijaminnya surga untuk 4 wanita (Khadijah, Fatimah, Asiah, Maryam). Mari mempersempit pembahasan ini dengan contoh kecil saja. Beberapa hari yang lalu saya mem post tentang suatu hal berbau against seseorang yang saya tahu betul kerjaannya hanyalah merayu wanita, seolah dimana dia berpijak disitu dilemparkannya rayuan2...

We can always learn something from someone

people are vary, but we can always learn something from someone. forcing people to be like what we want them to be is like stuffed them with fish when they got allergic on it. just because we put their necessity above ours, it doesn't mean they will do the same. mind's pattern are made by the value that they got from the circumstances. Some people treat you well because they believe that doing something nice are more beneficial than hurting someone, they got the experience on it or else they watch the people around them did it as well. While the other one who used to put their ego up above anything, will never have any idea to lower their selfish way, and keep upholding their necessity above the others. Human is perfect, God is really good. But behavior make it really complicated.  everyone want to be happy, but sometimes forget that the others begging for it too. it's almost impossible to wish everyone will be kind to us, just because we never hurt them, resp...

Being expensive is a must.

Parallel with gender equality, women somehow begging for world to give respect towards them. Women stand up against discrimination, women valued themselves as same as man who have a right to pursue their happiness. They fervently allay any form of humiliation toward them. They brave enough to shout out about their idea that women should have a protection under a legitimate law and constitution. Some tragedy sometime force women to scream out loud. Raping, act of despising, arbitrary actions, etc become the most famous highlight in any news media which show the number of people who kindly want to understand woman as deep as possible were extremely tragic. Analyze those phenomenon, assuming women aren't always right. The basic potent weapon that women should use is, being expensive. Teenagers who endlessly dedicate themselves to the country by drawing some incredible achievements are fabulous enough to defeat some who just being insane judging their president in every social medi...
