Aku pernah baca entah di mana, memang letak kenikmatan itu ada pada batas.
Hari libur itu menyenangkan bagi mereka yang berkegiatan, beda cerita kalau pas lagi nganggur. Misal suka banget sama bakso, tapi apa bisa makan sehari 3x selama 2 minggu? Bosen kan? Nah, itu maksudnya.
Pernah denger ceramah seorang Muslim scholar dari UK yang membahas rasionalisasi perintah hijab dgn sudut pandang yg menurut gue jauh lebih presisi secara teologis.
He said that it’s clear bahwa tujuan utama hijab bkn untuk membantu laki2 mengontrol hawa nafsunya.
This is why you need to watch documentaries, read books, speak to people, and if you can afford it, travel!
Sometimes the biggest motivation you need (to do beneficial things) is confirmation of the possibility of the vague ideas in your head.
Sawit, coklat, kopi, ngga bisa tumbuh di Eropa. Cuaca ngga mendukung.
Semua kebutuhan negara Eropa akan tanaman itu ditanam di negara qismin macam ndon.
Mereka dapet cuan, kita dapat alam yang hancur.
Lalu mereka bilang “Duh kasian, kalian kok ngga peduli lingkungan?”
I once dated a guy who canceled our planned date because he needed to run errands for his older sister abroad. Another canceled an outing because he had to take his parents for a photo capture appointment.
And what was my reaction to all that? I understood them, and we simply rescheduled. I run errands for my own mum too, so I know how important family responsibilities can be. Their situations were urgent, and I didn’t take it personally.
In fact, I appreciate men who prioritize their families. It takes a well-raised, responsible person to do that, and I see it as a positive trait not an inconvenience.
Does that mean I judge anyone who might feel differently? Not at all. Everyone has their own preferences and boundaries. Mine just happen to include giving grace when family comes first.
Beberapa hari lalu Chanee Kalaweit (bapaknya Andrew) bilang di sebuah podcast,
“If you do real conservation in Indonesia, you will have enemies.
If you are friends with everyone, it’s because you’re doing nothing.”
Di persaingan status sosial, pria dengan status tinggi bully pria dengan status rendah.
Karena frustrasi, pria dengan status rendah bully perempuan.
Pria dengan status tinggi bersikap lebih positif terhadap perempuan.
Tapi mereka "jahat" terhadap pria status rendah. "Akibatnya pria" status rendah jadi "jahat" terhadap perempuan.
Cinta habis di orang lama is the dumbest propaganda ever. Love doesn’t just vanish when someone leaves; it mutates, it rebirths, it finds new skin to live in. There’s always more love to give and always another kind of love waiting to find you.
in the sea of Gaza, in the water of Papua
two boats restlessly chasing a shore
one filled with bread and courage
one heavy with nickel and greed
.....
in the sea of Gaza, the boat shouts freedom
in the water of Papua, the boat steals the kingdom

Baru gajian, eh duit cuma numpang lewat.
Baru dapet bonus, eh ada aja pengeluaran mendadak.
Baru terima THR, eh malah harus ganti ban mobil.
Dulu aku selalu merasa seperti ini. Sampai suatu hari, guruku yang mulia mengajarkan mindset yang mengubah hidupku.

@tanyarlfes Namanya "Bias Negatif" dan pengaruh dari Algoritma
Algoritma itu netral, mau berita positif atau negatif, bisa masuk.
Tapi manusia punya kecenderungan untuk lebih memperhatikan hal yang negatif.
Lengkapnya bisa diliat dibawah, buku Stolen Focus
