Homecoming :)

Mudik (homecoming) telah menjadi sebuah tradisi di Indonesia setiap tahunnya pada saat lebaran Idul fitri. Satu hal yang paling mencolok saat mudik adalah perubahan di kota Jakarta dari the busy-crowded city menjadi kota yang lengang dan sepi ditinggal most of its citizen ke berbagai kota dan desa diseluruh Indonesia. As the capital city of Indonesia, Jakarta menjadi daerah terpadat di Indonesia dengan penduduk yang terdiri dari berbagai macam warga berbeda suku dan budaya.

So, masyarakat Indonesia pastinya biasa dengan berita mudik besar-besaran ini selama lebaran. Biasanya mudik ini dilakukan seminggu sampai beberapa hari sebelum lebaran hingga seminggu sampai beberapa hari setelah lebaran. To do homecoming, there are some ways: by train, by plane, by ship, by bus, by private car, by travel-car, by motorcycle. The last one is popular lately dan semakin banyak saja setiap tahunnya.

What people most remember about homecoming: its heavy boring jam, its long and tiring journey, and its crowd. J

man and silent

Do’ya wanna hear a crazy sadness story? Here we go..

A young man is staring at a man that sits not far from him. He is a married man with a hardworking wife and an almost dozen kid. The wife works so hard that she forgets her own health. And the man does the same also. At least the boy thought so. He sits whole day on every single day on his comfy chair in front of a shiny flat screen busy with himself, working.. working.. working on searching a fresh new pretty girl to attract.

The boy just can’t understand why on earth a man would fain give up his entire almost-perfect life that he builds for long time from zero to a stranger-fancy girl. And he is becoming more confused when that man insists that what he feels is truly a love.

I bet he doesn’t really understand what love means.

The thought comes on his mind, will he be like that man in several years at the future? will he? He heard from his sister that terrible thing is what grown-up man likely do. Is that true?

That man talks to that boy to remain silent for the sake of the happiness of his family. But how could the terrible thing like that be such happiness to other? Ouch, adults are difficult to understand, said him.

D’y know? He feels totally pity on him.. on all his innocent family. But He pities himself the most.. because he can do nothing for them. He just can’t decide what is best. He can do nothing but silent unless he would ruin that pretty-happy family.

Ever heard aphorism that "Silent is Gold"? Then, IS silent still gold that way?

happy Ramadhan :)
