ONE WEEK OF IED MUBARAK HOLIDAY

So here I am at the end of my one week Ied Mubarak holiday, although it is a very short time to relax, but somehow it stills a blessing that makes me being thankful to God. I learned a lot of things from small and simple thing that I saw, hear, and feel. So it might be unimportant things to you but these small details really brought me lots of inspiration.

ONE. The smile that others gave to me really showed me that the song of What a Wonderful World is based on a true story.

I went home at the day of Idul Fitri, my friends and parents are worried about my feeling, but I did not felt that at all. My flight is on 11.00 am but I have had already there on 9.00 and I’d love to wait there. My waiting time was fun, I could see others who spend the day at the airport and they were all seems very happy, smile is the best present that other people gave to me, everybody smile friendly at me. The greatest smile that made me happy was the smile of the officer there, start with the officer who politely asked my permission before his hands checked me, until the smile of the ticketing officer and the flight attendant.
It is so simple, right? But I learned that somehow our smile is happiness for others and it does bring me inspiration to be a nice person who full of smile :)

TWO. Even the simple stuffs like people’s fashion and the restaurant in the street side really could made me stay alert to reach my goal.

I went to Bandung for unhappy reason, so I only spend a little time visiting Jalan Dago and Jalan Riau which has many fashion store there. I was amazed by the people there, seemed that they are all so confidence with their outfit, and somehow it makes me thing that they have the confidence. The business and restaurants there also made me spirited away to have the courage to make my own money by entrepreneurship. Ohya, last but not least, I’d love the wheater, I always woke up early in the morning and took a bath after it, quite cold but where else I could get this kind of cold water sensation?
It is so simple, right? But I learned that somehow the way you dressed really affect the way others treat you, and also I learned that creativity plus hard work could really brings money. Inspired me to have a great sense of fashion and to be a rich young man.

went shopping on several nice distro
at the jalan riau and jalan dago.

THREE. Sometimes I am too busy having fun with my friends while in fact I actually have a great giant trees.

This short holiday is the time of family or I called as “My Giant Trees”. Of course I gathered with my beloved parents, grandmother, and others. The greatest thing is that I could have a special time to have fun with my siblings. In Bandung, I met my cousins who totally freaking funny, we laughed a lot every time. Then, I went to Mall Artha Gading to hang out with Hendy Dwi Putranto and Aprita Nur Anggraini, the brother and sister that has been with me from my childhood. Just several hours ago, I also had lunch with my other brothers, Abang and Adek (they are both identical twin) at Rice Bowl, Mall Kalibata, and congratulations for you guys for your new education steps, Adek is now on majoring Geology Engineering while Abang is my future colleague as he now is in the faculty of medicine, both of them on the Gajah Mada University, what a great brother.
It is so simple, right? But I learned that somehow I do have a great family, great in the way they showed me good respect and also great in their quality, I do belive my Giant Trees will shine.

FOUR. Instead of money and position, what I really want for my father are two things. The first is the gene of patient, and the gene of perseverance.
I spend most of this time in my Mom’s house than Dad’s (just one single day in Daddy’s house), and I feel kinda guilty for that. Fell guilty because I had to delayed to eat sate kambing together (which is our favorite food), unable to accompany my grandma to the eye treatment, and unable to bring my dad to doctor to do his first check up, since it is so important knowing that I am sure that he has COPD now (Chronic Obstructive Pulmonary Disease, a disorder in respiratory system).
Dad: “jadi kamu bener udah mau pulang sekarang ini?”
Son: “iya, Yah.”
Dad: “Wah, padahal Ayah rencananya mau ngajak kamu ke Sate Kambing paling enak siang ini”
Son: “…”
Dad: “mm..tapi gapapa lah”
Son: “…”
The last sentence that he said still inside of my mind, include his sound, tone, and emotion. He did not expressed the feeling of sadness, in fact he expressed that it would be just fine, he patient enough to wait for the next time I’ll back home.
And for this point, I don’t know what to say about learning and inspiration. I just feel sad a little bit.

ask donation with an interesting way.
what a creativity.

FIVE. Once again, To prevent is always lot more better that to cure.
Last night, I slept in my 82-years-old-blind grandmother’s bedroom, because she is too afraid of being alone in her everything-dark-world, and she is always loved to accompany by me most of the time. When we have already woke up and sat in our family room, she suddenly asked me, “Where are you live now?” and this one really made me shocked, “Who is your parent’s name?”, Oh dear God, I don’t know how come she becoming like that, I hope she was just confusing instead of getting Alzheimer.
I learned a lot for this situation, from how to being patient to care a patient, knowing the psychology condition of an elderly sick person, and evenmore, how to make the rest of my family still health. It inspired me to become a very good doctor, because soon, their health is on my hand.

So tomorrow I am going back to a city of dream, where I will pursuit for my success which am going to built myself, my family, friends, religion, and also my lovely Indonesia. Give me a prayer, dear friends :) ciao!!!
