Life Lesson

Life is not easy like what we think before. Especially when we cannot distinguish which one the best friends, which one the enemy in our life. Sometimes someone that we think our best friendss actually they are not our best friends. And someone that we think not our best friends actually they are truly our best friend. 

It makes us not really believe with someone. Like happened with one of my friends. She is my best friend since we were at Junior High School. Now, she is a student in one of university at my hometown. Suddenly she called me and told what happen with her. She has best friends and their friendship has existed since they were at Senior High School.  She believes with them and she thinks they are really best friends. How about them? do they think the same with she think?? No, because in the fact they are not really her best friends. Why?? because they trap her and distort the fact. And now she got problem at her campus because of her friends. 

I cannot imagine that there are people like them which is existed in the world. Do they think my friend's feel because of their behave?? aaaaaaa, life is difficult. It is one of precious lesson for us. 

Just believe my best friend "Allah is always with us and will help us". Everything is well, must be patient and the truth is always win.. ♥☺ 

"New Experiance"

There was something different in Creative Writing Class last week on May 13, 2013. We have a guest named Mbak Sonya. When we heard her name, we must think she is absolutely a woman and there is no something false. Actually she is "different". She is a waria ( a man who changes his appearance into completely woman, but his gender still as a man). We made a conversation with her and asked some questions and it can be new experience for me.

She is from Klaten. She is a volunteer of PKBI (Persatuan Keluarga Berencana Indonesia). She joined to PKBI on 2006 when the earthquake happen in Yogya. She was really confident because she could do everything although she is a waria. Many people give positive apreciate with her. Although their admission to her not directly but she can know from their behave to her. Unfortunately, although other people can appreciate, respect and accept her like who she is now but her family still cannot do like other people do. Her problem with her family still unresolved.

Before joining to PKBI, she ever got stressed because she has not accepted yet if she is a waria, "why i was not born as a woman, she said." But after joining PKBI and she get much explanation, she grateful about her condition. 

She is a freelancer. It's the way that she does for surviving. She prefers to have relation and interact with the public rather than waria. I'm so proud to meet her because i can know something that i don't know before. 

Do not judge someone else from their appearance. Give respect, appreciate to every single person that we meet.
