Random mumble

When a father married off his daughter
He handover his responsibility towards the husband to be
He trust the guy can do it better than him
Or at least as good as his care

For all the husband in the world
Would you ask yourself this question
Did i ever fail my father in law faith?

And of course the same thing goes for the wives to mother in law

The annoyed "Kapan..."

There is only one thing that holding back my excitement of going home soon.
That i have to face those Kapan ini Kapan itu question again.
Arrrggghhh, just leave my life alone, won't you?!?!?!

Society class

I was a bit upset reading an IG post from a celeb - socialite
It was meant to be a prayer from a mother to her birthday boy, hoping that he will grow up as a down to earth person, hang out with anyone from any society class, and so on
A good one though, and i believe it was sincere. She got many positive feedback and compliment, too.
However, i had different opinion when i read her words, "Aah, so this is how you see yourself and the world. It is you who draw the line, how would you hope your kid will cross the line?".

High class, middle class, low society class.
There is no such thing, in my opinion.
Those just classes that people create to differentiate themselves from other. I would not think that way.

God creates people equally and they born with their own fate.
Ada yang mungkin secara ekonomi kekurangan tapi memiliki kelebihan di hal lain (e.g. jago masak, pinter, jago lukis, etc). Bisa juga kebalikannya.
Unfortunately, our society tends to see everything from economical perspective. Postingan artis tersebut membuat saya sadar, itu adalah pemikiran yang diwariskan turun temurun. 'Gak aneh kalau sulit untung dihilangkan sebagaimana layaknya tradisi.

If you tell your kid that he/she is luckier or richer, so they should help other; that will stay in their mind. I will not surprise if they grow up with superior feeling in front of others, and felt that they are almighty when help others. You got what you want though, he/she can hang out with anyone, but the sincerity is different.

Semasa sekolah dulu saya punya group belajar, anggotanya hampir setengah kelas. Temen-temen yang lebih menguasai satu mata pelajaran, saling berbagi. Pada akhirnya, bukan cuma ada satu guru di kelompok belajar kami, tapi beberapa. There where the balance is being created. Saya yang rada telmi di Biologi dan Geografi tertolong banget dengan trik dari teman saat menghafalkan lapisan bumi. Sementara saya yang lebih PD di hitung-hitungan, kebagian mengajar matematika atau teman2 sejenisnya. Ada juga teman yang tidak begitu kuat di mata pelajaran manapun, tapi itu bukan soal. Cause they are such a lovely friend, and their existence made us happy (they are fun, too, belajar pasti boring kalau gak ada mereka).

That is what i meant. Berbagi bukan melulu tentang finansial. And that should not the only thing you emphasize to your kid. Jokowi mungkin 'gak akan jadi presiden kalau bukan karena para relawan (regardless the social class of those volunteer).
Bahwa semua orang sebenarnya sama. You might have one thing but you lack on other thing. So there is no such thing as classes cause it will be so absurd. Think about it: in which class i would belong? Mideconomy OKbrain so-socookingskill  lackofashionsense highexposuretointernationalworld class. Is that kind of class exist?

If i have a kid, i will pray so he/she grow up as someone which the existence is meaningful to others. Could be a doctor who help cure the illness, a teacher who teach the kindness to the world, a businessman who open the work opportunity for others, comedian who spread the laughter, or housewives who give the warmth to the family. I hope he / she will sincerely love others and be lovable by others: friends, family, or just anyone. Seseorang yang setiap langkah dalam hidupnya selalu diridhai Allah.

Life is about take and give. And it will be more fun if you could see more. Going to different places, make friend with anyone, eat in whatever place you want. Do not let those not-exist society rule limit you.

Call me naive, overly sensitive, too hush, or irrational. We just have different opinion in seeing the world. That's it!
