MARRIAGE


I think this is the hardest topic that I have ever tried to write about. Coz I still don’t have one hehe… My brother and his family came to visit me and my mom (yes I know, I still live with my mom). He usually comes once in a month. This time he brought along Diva, his daughter. She is soooo cute and funny, you guys have to see her. I am the kind of guy who will not get married when everything is not ready, especially the financial. I once asked my friend Yudi about it, what makes you brave yourself to get married? And he said, I just took the first step and everything will be followed. Yeah right! I don’t believe that crap. What about financial? What about school admission fee? What about health budget? How on earth are you going to pay those things, the answer is MONEY pal! But he answered calmly, I know it’s hard to earn money these days, it took a lot of your energy and times too but they’re all so worth it. Cynically I asked again, how come? He said, they’re all gone when you got home and you see your child. I paused…….
Ok, that’s the answer that I can debate with coz I don’t have a child. Finally I know what my friend’s said mean. It is when I saw Diva. Her cute face, her curly hair, her big eyes, her smile, her walk, her shy, her giggles, her straight-forward talks, her naive, her everything has made me thinking. That’s how it feels when you have a child. That’s how it feels when you have a family. It feels great!
Now, I’m ready to marry Luna

Wew Kees, gue pake bahasa Indonesia aja deh ya.....

Kees, lo terlalu mirip gue. Lo yakin klo kita nih sanguinis ? Kali2 aja Florence Littauer salah mendefinisikan kita hihihihi....

Btw, gue lupa, Yudi agama apa ya ? Islam or Katolik ya ?
Klo menurut Islam, merit tuh hidayah, jadi merit dulu, rejeki pasti akan datang kemudian (kata temen gue yang gue percaya dia adalah Islam yang benar).

Klo Kristen / Katolik, ada juga dibilang di ayat2 alkitab (--- PR buat lo. Lo cari sendiri yeh ! Baca kitab donk ! Teman gue yang suoer sibuk & calon internist aja baca 3 pasal tiap hari lho ! Lo kan baru calon pediatricians, mau jadi atheist lo ???).
Tapi kata temen gue yang paling gue ingat, waktu dia ditanya perbuatan paling nekad apa yang pernah lo lakuin, dia bilang : Menikah.

Nikah memang butuh semua itu (financial security, etc), tapi yang paling penting tuh : niat to take a step --- kalo kita udah nemuin orang yang bisa bikin kita niat settle, buat gue satu2nya yah, you know who, buat lo (astagfirullahalazim) Luna Mayat lol.....!!!!
