Our Health Care

Prologue:
Dad, this is 3 days from your birthday... 
But still I haven't visit your 'house' yet :(

I am really really your bad-lil-girl, uh? I am sorry, but we had so many things left. Mom went out of town for some work. Brother always went home at night from his office, until fell sick. Then Lintang had exam and tution too. Rahma went back to Bogor during her school holiday. And Yostri helped me maintaining the office. I felt really tired so far, but it doesn't matter as long as I was happy through my busy days--picked and dropped Mom, Lintang, Rahma-then kept the office-then prepared house daily needs-then bla bla bla until night--and finished by sleeping beauty at my comfy room.

Two days ago, my heart was recur again. I was really afraid if I got angina or whatever again. But yes, it definetely breathless. Then I drove my motorcyle to drugstore at downtown and bought an oxygen inhaler. It helped me so much at night. I thought I should buy the smaller one to be carried everywhere when I went out. But I haven't found yet what it's like. Sometimes I saw people with asthma brought that small tube (but whether it's particulary for astma or not... I don't know yet).

Umm and, oh.. I want to share this important thing with you all readers. Please do not underestimate back-pain or heart-pain and breathless that you usually got. If your body showed unusual symptoms, go see to check your body to a specialist. Do not wait until you feel the tremendous pain. Anyway make sure you have quality sleep time too. It's not a matter of how long you sleep, but quality sleep is whenever your mind is really in the most relaxed position. For chronic insomniac people, do not underestimate your sleeping problems, if you are having problem such as feel 'hard' to sleep, you should identify factors cause and find solutions for it. Depression, people with heart disease, high-blood-pressure, or astma may interfere your sleep too. Do not use over medication--like antidepressant drugs or sleeping pills--for insomnia (from doctor/that you get easily at drugstore), because it may have undersided side effect for your body too, believe me, I've ever tried it. 



If you do have special health disorders, provide a specific tools for first act in an emergency situation. For example like me--with heart problems--provide an oxygen inhaler for emergency. Like this:

Oxygen inhaler

And provide special medication from your specialist. Don't forget to control your health routine too. 
Health is important, so be grateful!

A Letter From Daughter

Dad, 
Four days later is your birthday...   
This may be a missed birthday, without your present. And we still don't have a special gift for you. Even though we haven't a special gift for you yet, we've been thinking about the most beautiful gift for you. Promise, I will show you later, after that gift is realized. I hope you see it from there.

Dad,
Do you hear me?  
When we can talk about our wishful thinking again? I promise, I will not argue you. I've always argued almost all words and wishful thinking from you, indeed. Instead of feelings from daughter to her father during discussion. It's normal, right?.

Dad,
Yostri and Rahma has finished their final exam today. On next 5th May, it would be Lintang's turn to take her final exam. You had talk with them about the goals and the focus of their studies, right? They all  have grown up now. Brother also has found his new job, may he find convenient and passion in his new job. And me, I was still faithful to our business, this was your dream business since first. I'm just forward your step. At January ago, it turned out, mom was still not pension. Lot of our hilarious stories that you've missed since June ago. If you were here, it would surely adds our "ridiculousness" discussion everyday.

Dad,
I will find the right man as your hope, man who are good in his worship, smart and hardworker. Would you be proud from there? Well, I missed your guava juice, I missed when you cooked instant noodles for us. I missed to help you washed the kitchenware. I missed all simply things that you did for us.

You know, ain't gonna lie sometimes I wish I had a "dad", but it's whatever, I'm proud where I'm with the best one daddy like you. I remember that moment when you pick me up from the airport and say "I hope one day after pension, me and your mom can go umroh together". I remember that moment when we had a big fight, but still I always thought about you late at night, and cried over side of my stubborn.

Dad, this full moon will always remind me of you, how I miss my old man. Thank you for the encouragement you gave for me, for brother, for all of us. And you know, I love you so so so so much... No matter what. 



To: My beloved daddy 
At the most convenient resting place.






From

Your dissident daughter

"Aku Rapopo" Phenomenon

Have you ever heard "AKU RAPOPO" words? Have you ever found that words became trending topic Twitter? People usually used hashtag Aku Rapopo (#AkuRapopo) to express their sad feeling. 

Then the question is, "what's the meaning of Aku Rapopo?"

Aku Rapopo consist of two words: "aku" (means: me/I) and "rapopo" (means: it's okay/nothing happen). It absorbed from Java language.  

Haven't known yet how this words could be so booming in cyber world. The use of this words by Javanese people has been existed since ancient times. It describes that Javanese people are good at hiding their feelings in front of other with words "Aku Rapopo". It's like apofasis or antithesis words for Javanese people. Sometimes, Javanese hide their feeling to respect others, they keep their feeling so that others can not read the true feeling. This is actually a contradiction, I mean like a pleasantries cultural by Javanese style. Whereas you have to hide your feeling because if your feelings read by someone else, then you are considered as a whiner.

From the pictures below, you can understand what's Aku Rapopo means :d

Hahaha, this one make me laugh lot. Look that guy :))

Aku Rapopo by Kamen Rider style

Kancamu wes wisuda means "Look, your friend has been graduated", then that guy said "Aku Rapopo" with crying :))




Haha, maybe CR more attractive than Messi in this case, then Messi said "Aku Rapopo" lol :))

Gray-Zone



It’s just very normal for people to say "When are you will get married?" to single person like me, and then when I say "Actually, I don’t know yet when I am going to get married", and people will say "See, many people as your own age are married, what are you waiting?". 

Well, twenty five old years woman (and it will be twenty six soon on next July, anw). A good age for woman to get their happy marriage and happy family. Then it's like a social legitimacy that women (normal) "should" be married at twenty five old years--or more younger than it. Maybe people will not feel satisfied with answers like, "I don't know yet". Sadly, people choose to be happy with their sarcastic disclaimer and greeting like "spinster" or "flunky" will beautifully inherent as predicate that definitely given by society, for those people who are not married yet in their mature age. 
Mature. It's like a gray zone where are it become relatively "common" to each individual. Okay, instead of someone called mature or immature to step into marriage, no romance with that. I think humans like to settle down with that one special someone who makes their life stable. Right? Stable, it mean someone who are appropriate with us and our daily live.

It's same if people say a question like "When are you guys will have babies?" to married people. See? A kind of something that can be attempted but not sure "when" it will happen. But still, people wont short of understand that clause. Probably because people are considerate like that (whereas, it's more like sarcastic than considerate thing anw). Now, do me a favor and go back to answer that question I write above. There are people who can reach out the meaning of "smile" answer, else there aren't. The lucky-bastard-predicate (or maybe a-vedy-well-prejustice) that given by society may also bestowed by God for humans. Read this thorough: marriage or baby born can not occurs whenever we want, tho we really want it and have sought it well.So, if single people have not married yet and married couple have not their babies yet, it doesn't mean a curse. No excuse to abuse other.

Without we know, in other part of this world, there are someone that say like this:

Step Toward The "Secret"




When you're inches away from leaving, everything seems nicer than before. Ever. True, right? Ya, all things that hold you with arrogance in the past, then disappear and it give bright colors in your new page. It force you to meet joy and cheer that always you want to share with people around you. Let this sentence work over your mind and heart: "Forgive them even if they are not sorry". Refusing to forgive something hurt at the past, will hurt you more. Never hardened to the things that will hurt ourselves more. When you can love, forgive, and take a lesson from everything that you have passed, so that there remained "peaceful" upon your life. Don't be afraid, if something at your past is too good to be forgotten.. So, never force to forget, if it were to be settled in your heart, then let it there. You know what, the best future is secret future, which nobody know anything about that, an even better....everybody walks toward that secret...

Lalu Bagaimana Dengan Janji?



Mungkin dalam setiap satu tarikan nafas, ada kata yang kusebut hasrat.
Hasrat itu seperti sebuah doaku untuk menjadi yang halal bagimu.
Seperti satu keyakinan bahwa suatu saat janji akan ditepati.
Atau harapan agar pemegang janji masih setia meski telah terkubur ribuan hari.
Kalau kita sama-sama berdoa, aku rasa malaikat pun akan mengamini.
Bukan begitu janji Tuhan?
Insan yang baik untuk insan yang baik.
Masalahnya hanya, aku tidak tahu apa itu kriteria baik.
Apa aku insan baik? Apa engkau insan baik?
Apa kita sama-sama bukan insan baik?
Mengertilah, ada rumah yang tidak selalu bersih.
Ada air sungai yang tidak selalu jernih.
Namun, aku ingin menjadi baik, bagi Tuhan-ku dan bagimu.
Itupun jika Tuhan tidak terlanjur kecewa padaku.
Bukankah, kita hamba yang selalu mengecewakan-Nya?
Kalau kau ingin bersama orang yang baik, selipkan aku dalam doamu, tolong.
Begitu pula aku, yang tak pernah lelah menyelipkan namamu untuk menuntunku dalam kebaikan.
Biarkan malaikat tersenyum ketika mengamini doa-doa yang kita panjatkan pada Tuhan.
Dan biarkan semesta menjadi saksi bahwa janji akan ditepati bersama keyakinan hati.

Dalam kasus ekstrem, mereka cenderung terlalu sensitif serta waspada berlebihan dan dalam hati siap melompat. Kehidupan bagi mereka adalah drama yang menggairahkan penuh keragaman emosi. Namun demikian, mereka cepat menjadi bosan ketika hal-hal terjadi berulang dan dibutuhkan terlalu banyak detail serta ketelitian.

Selamat Pagi Untukmu

Selamat pagi, untukmu di sana, yang telah menaruh biru dalam diamku.
Pagi ini wangimu masih di sekitar situ, masih belum hilang meski jejakmu sudah tak tersisa oleh butiran hujan dan angin malam.
Kau memilih pergi, dan meski sudah kuramalkan sebelumnya, tetap saja kau meninggalkan biru.
Mungkin kau tidak terlalu dalam memahami, atau karena kau telah cukup mengerti tentang masa-masa laluku. Lalu, mencampakkan.

Selamat pagi, untukmu yang telah menolak rinduku.
Semoga masih bertahan kau dengan hatimu yang bersih, meski kau telah menghitamkan rasaku.
Berjalanlah pada tujuanmu, mungkin kita cukup mengenal, tapi takut untuk menggilai.
Atau mungkin karena kau cukup memahami, bahwa tak cukup menjadi gila untuk mengerti tentang aku.
Tak mengapa.

Selamat pagi, untukmu yang telah membawa pergi senyumku.
Meski kau tahu, senyum adalah sunnah. Masih saja kau lupa untuk mengembalikannya kepadaku.
Kau pikir aku punya banyak untuk kuberikan pada semua orang?
Mungkin begitu, pikirmu.
Tapi tidak.


Selamat pagi, ini sudah menjelang waktu sholat Jumat.
Beribadahlah.
Karena Tuhan telah menunggu hamba-hambaNya yang bersujud dalam khusyu'.
Mungkin, bisakah kau selipkan namaku di dalam khusyu'-mu?
Atau tidak.
Ah, lebih baik jangan.

Karena kita tidak cukup gila, untuk saling mencumbui rasa.
