Cinta Tanpa Dosa

Seorang ibu sedang berang. Sudah 1 jam anak bayinya merengek tidak karuan, mengantuk tapi ingin main. Sebotol susu sudah habis.
"Sudah! Diam! Mama mau kerja."
"Maaaaa!!"
"Ssst!!" Ibu itu mendesis sangat kasar dan mendorong anaknya hingga terjatuh.
Anak itu tertatih bangun. Tertatih berjalan.
"Maaaaa!!" Anak itu memeluk kaki ibunya.

Yang Orang Lain Katakan Tentangmu Bisa Jadi Benar

Sekali-kali, coba dihadapi dan diterima saja semua kekuranganmu di mata orang lain yang sempat disampaikan kepadamu. Jangan terus menampik dan melindungi diri seolah-olah kamu sudah mengerti apa yang orang lain katakan tentangmu, atau seolah-olah kamu sudah mengerti tentangmu. Iya, kamu mengerti tentangmu. Mungkin orang lain tidak semengerti kamu kalau menyangkut soal kamu.

There is No Ideal

Argh, not today again. Things are a bit settled down now. The thing is, it's half an hour past midnight. How am I gonna do well for the exam when I start studying past midnight every day for a week?

Are you sure you really need to say you're on your own business? They need your help. Doesn't matter they say it explicitly or implicitly, they need your help. Maybe an important and urgent one. And you just gonna toss away? I know you feel guilty and selfish now, right? You can do your own later. Think about it, you will definitely feel sorry and angry to yourself later for 'wasting' your time in this other people's business when yours are abandoned, like, for ever? When are you gonna think about yourself? When you are apart from anyone else? You will never. They are not even forcing you to spare your time for them. This is the chance to take care of yourself. The world doesn't go around everyone that is except you. Let go. Accomplish your goals. ...
