Things You Should Say to Your Heart

Image taken from www.smokeassistwarning.com

Sometimes you just need to take your time and having a little conversation with your heart.
This might be things you should say to your heart:

1."Dear, heart...please be smart"
The greatest thing about eart is it CAN NOT think.
They'll do what they want to
and they'll say what they want to.

2. "I should have listen to you"
The only things we say it because they know us better than ourselves.

3. "I hate you when you make me feel like an idiot"
the so called heart-beats-your brain  situation

4. "I  believe in you"
I always remember a great quote from Paulo Coelho Book "The Alchemist"

*I forgot the real sentences in the book.I write it based on my memories*

A: "Believe in your heart"
B: "How do I know if my heart tells me the truth?"
A: "If you never lie to your heart, it won't betrayed you"

5. "Please be strong,heart"
Paulo Coelho say that "No matter how good a person is, sometimes they can hurt you and because of this we must forgive."

6. "Don't worry, you'll find another great heart"
People come and go as they like in our lives. Broken heart is a part of everyone cycle.

7. "Lead me to a great path"
I never tell you lie. I hope you will lead me to a great path where every gerat things still waiting for me

Thank you,187

Berapa jumlah buruh yang dibutuhkan agar para pemimpin memerhatikan demonstrasi  yang mereka lakukan?

Ribuan?puluh ribuan?Mungkin.

Tapi apakah jumlah pendemo yang banyak akan menjamin keberhasilan tuntutan yang mereka ajukan?

Belum tentu.

*Salah satu adegan film Made in Dagenham.Film yang terilhami dari gerakan demonstrasi pekerja perempuan di Ford Dagenham tahun 1968*

Pada tahun 1968, sebanyak 187 pekerja wanita melakukan aksi demonstrasi.

187 pekerja wanita ini adalah para penjahit jok mobil yang bekerja di salah satu perusahaan besar di Inggris, Fordagenham. Mereka menentang adanya diskriminasi terhadap kaum perempuan terutama dalam hal jumlah pendapatan.

Ford yang sudah menjadi perusahaan besar, memperkerjakan pekerja perempuan dan laki-laki dalam perusahaannya,tetapi para pekerja wanita hanya menerima kurang dari setengah penghasilan para pekerja laki-laki di sana.Padahal mereka memiliki keahlian menjahit, jumlah jam kerja yang sama dan beban kerja yang sama dengan para laki-laki.

Apa yang menyebabkan mereka mendapat penghasilan kurang dari setengah penghasilan laki-laki?

Jawabannya: KARENA MEREKA PEREMPUAN!

Ya,kaum yang sering kali dianggap sebagai gender ke dua di negara itu(atau mungkin di banyak negara).

Bukan kaum pekerja saja yang mendapat jumlah penghasilan seperti itu,melainkan para perempuan yang bekerja di perkantoran dan instansi pemerintah.

Jadi,demonstrasi yang dilakukan oleh para pekerja perempuan Ford Dagenham adalah sebuah tindakan yang sangat berani dan tentu saja didukung oleh perempuan lainnya.

Awalnya tindakan mereka tentu dianggap sebagai sebuah lelucon oleh banyak pihak,maklum pada saat itu kaum perempuan yang berdemontrasi memang merupakan sebuah hal baru.

Sebuah perjuangan panjang yang akhirnya bisa dilalui para pekerja wanita ini membuahkan hasil ketika akhirnya pemerintah Inggris mengabulkan tuntutan mereka.

187 perempuan luar biasa ini pun akhirnya yang membuat  equal pay act pada tahun 1970 diberlakukan di beberapa negara.

187 perempuan yang luar biasa, dan mungkin para perempuan ini lah salah satu alasan mengapa sampai sekarang kaum pekerja perempuan bisa mendapat jumlah penghasilan yang sama dengan laki-laki.

Terima kasih,para pekerja perempuan Ford Dagenham.

Thank you, each and every one of you is a hero.

Letter to Heaven

Dear,heaven...

Today, it's been 3 years since you're gone.

 3 years. I still feel you’re here. I (choose to) believe that you’re still here.

And I still miss you every day.

Life is so hard since you’re gone.

I don’t like F1 like I used to be. I don’t like to watch football match anymore.

And I still met few (not good) men.

To find a man like you was so hard,Dad.

I haven’t met him yet.

WHY?It has to be that hard,Dad?

I don’t even know what love is.

Sometimes I refuse to believe there’s still love around me.

Sometimes I feel like I have (no) love..

There’s one question I really want to ask,dad:

“Have I ever make you proud?”

Having a brother and sister like them was so hard.

They’re great.

They have a great job, have a great education, have a great life.

Me?

I’m just no one. People only want to talk with them,not me.

Like I was invisible to them.

“Have I ever make you proud?”

I’m trying to be everyday,Dad.

Just give me a time.

Trust me I did my best.

Sorry, if I never make you proud.

Sorry, for sometimes I’ve been so weak.

I promise to be stronger, but please always beside me even when the dark cloud is around me.

I hope  you can give me your answer.

I know you can read my letter.

I know you’re happy up there.

But,yeah..I will be a daddy’s apple

No matter how old I am.

No matter how big I am.

I still miss you.

I just wanna hugs you tonight.Once again

We always preapare ourself to be strong

No matter how much we think we’re ready

Fairy Tale Killer

link: www.anthonybloch.com

Remember how our parents used to read us some great fairy tales?
I dunno if parents these days still did this.
But, my mom did, she read all the fairy tailes that her children wants to hear (or read).

Many experts said that if parents did the story telling, it will effect the children in the future. Most children will love to read a book cause their parents did so.

link; www.ncbf.org.uk

This princesses are very familiar to us. They're just some of the great fairy tale characters.

It's true that most (I think all) of the fairy tales has the happy ending.

Many children(especially girls) will love it. They always wondering as if they were the princess. What a great escape from the real life.









I always believe in the great and happy ending of each stories. But as I grew older, many books I've been read. and I started to know this two men.

 

The Brothers Grimm

They were German  academics, linguists, cultural researchers, lexicographers and authors who together collected and published folklore or fairy tales.

They have their own side story about fairy tales.
 I'll write the ending of two famous fairy tales in their version:

1. Cinderella

" When the wedding with the King's son had to be celebrated, the two false sisters came and wanted to get into favour wtih Cinderella and share her good fortune. When  the betrothed couple went to church, the elder was at the right side and the younger at the left, and the pigeons pecked out one eye of each of them. Afterwards, as they came back, the elder was at the left, and the younger at the right, and then the pigeons pecked out the other eye of each. And thus, for their wickedness and falsehood, they were punished with blindness as long as they lived'

                                                               -----------------------------------




2. Snow-White and the Seven Dwarfs

"Then then the wicked women uttered a curse, and was so wretched, so uttery wretched, that she knew not what to do. At first, she would not go to the wedding at all, but she had no peace, and must go to see the young Queen. And when she knew Snow-White; and she stood still with rage and fear, and could not stir. But iron slippers had already put upon the fire, and they were bought in with tongs, and set before her. Then she was forced to put on the red-hot shoes, and dance untill she dropped down dead"

                                                                  ----------------------------------------



feel  shock with how the story end?
Yeah, I feel the same way too :D:D (at first)

 They collect and write their (version) fairy tales based on what the people said (witness said).
*The important thing you should remember that they were collectors, not authors of the tales

although the majority of which were not intended as children's tales. Deeply concerned by the content of some of the tales. The brothers added an introduction with cautionary advice that parents steer children toward age-appropriate stories


We should say thank you to the brothers Grimm to gives the new perspective of fairy tales.
 
 Things we learn from the brothers Grimm's fairy tales is :

" We do need the " fairy tale killer" inside of us, it can always reminds us that no matther how great the fairy tales, IT'S just a fantasy. We didn't live in fantasy, we live in the real world. Where something may not as good as it seems. Open up your eyes and face the real world"

Unconditional Hate

link: www.wattpad.com

Unconditional (adj) : Without conditions or limit

Mostly we heard the phrase "Unconditional Love"
since, there always two sides of everything, if unconditional love does exist, so does with unconditional hate,  right?

well, at least that's on my mind right now.

link; www.camarshall.com

We can hate someone with very simple reasons:

1. Hate someone cause they can not fulfill their promises
2. Cause they smoking in front of you
3. Cause their bad attitudes
4. Cause their shallow minds
and many more..

 You can hate people because you HATE them.
As simple as that

Guilty Pleasure

Everybody has their own guilty pleasure, right?
and this is my guilty pleasure..
*my face turn into red*

2. Shirley Temple
