Rambles

Disappointed. Very. 
Few months ago, gw liat instagramnya a famous pastor yg gw follow. 
Someone I looked up to. 
She uploaded  photo of a fancy restaurant (which is totally okay, pastors are allowed to be rich).
Yg bikin ga okay itu menunya. 
She ate Foie Gras!!
It is one of the most controversial food which involves cruelty to the ducks.

And today, one of the other pastor's kid was posing with a riffle and the tags says something like "learn to hunt birds"

What made them (the parents especially) think that it's okay to kill innocent birds??  
Beneran ga ngertiii dan ga pengen ngerti juga si. 

I know I sound so judgemental, but it really hurts me seeing those photos. 
Beneran sampe deg2-an n ati gw sampe nyuuuuuttt gitu rasanya. 

I dont mind fancy meals.
Really i dont. But I do mind animal cruelty.

Gw emang bukan aktivis.
Im not the one out on the street rescuing stray animals. 
Heck Im not even a vegetarian!
I still kill bugs when they enter my house.

Gua ga munafik ko. Try not to lah at least. Beneeer!
I still eat meat. 
Ga bisa kalo disuru jadi vegetarian. As much as I want to. 
Tapi Im trying the best that I can.
The best that I know how. 
The best in my power and ability.

.... By not eating food yg udah melek2 dibikin dari unnecesary torture n cruelty  of the animals. 

.... By NOT condoning my kid to go around hunting n killing animals just for the sake of hunting them and having fun with a riffle! 

.... By never ever ever ever EVER gonna watch animal circus

.... By teaching my kid to respect any living beings. Humans, animals, plants. 

This is why we refer to Pippy as Onya's "pet-sister". She is not "just" animal/dog. 
O yes si Pippy punya banyaaakk boundaries di rumah, ofcourse dia ga sama ama kita manusia. We are still her pack leader, gw still tereakin dia kalo dia bengal, masi disetrap, diomelin, disebelin kalo lg rese. Tapi we will never abuse her.

Intinya si cuma satu.
Unnecessary killings and/or tortures in any form is simply: not right.

So famous people, please remember that you have literally millions of followers around the world and I know you can never pleased everybody, but please  at least try to be smart of the obvious. Dont be ignorant. 

Teach the next generation to respect the earth, coz really, it's the only one we've got.

Bucket List

Yep. Been hearing a lot about people dropped dead suddenly. Mulai dari si Adjie Masaid, babenya si Joshua, then just now Emma's friend juga Dadaism died of heart attack. She was 29 years old, just got ,arrayed last October. Life is so fragile. That's why I really hate Andi each time I have to remind him over and over again about healthy lifestyle. Anyway, decided to make a bucket list for myself. 1. Back to NZ 2. Sky dive 3. Vacation to Russia 4. Having more than enough funds for Onya to pursue her degree in England, Oxford University preferably :) 5. Ngeliat Andi punya bodi keren 6. Buying a house for my parents 7. Karet tengsin dijual Hmmm....... Belon kepikiran yg lawn. Nanti di update lg deh

Pippy

We have a new addition in the family. We adopted a Jack Russell from SPCA.  Kenapa anjing? Karena seumur idup gua, for as long as I can remember, gua selalu punya anjing. Bukan cuma sekedar "miara" loh, tapi yg bener2 part of the family.  Yg paling membekas itu tentu aja Piko ama Picca my last two dogs.  Kakah died when I was about 5 months pregnant with Onya. Jadi Onya sama sekali ga sempet ketemu my dogs.  Makin kesini gw makin yakin, kalo animals play an important role in kids life (at least di idup gw lah). They learn about responsibility, caring and most importantly compassion. I wanna give a chance buat Onya ngerasain apa yg gw rasain ke Piko n Kakah. The gift of unconditional friendship they gave... And how u learn to love them too.  Kenapa adopt? Karena saya ini agak2 idealis tapi realistis. I love animals. Dogs especially.  Idealis karena gw mau do the right thing YG GW BISA. Realistis karena, as much I want to.... Gw ga akan sanggup kl disuru jadi...

It is perhaps a monumental probability that I've simply forgotten what has kept me here. Or evidently, what I have fought so hard for. What wind could be so strong, it banishes hundreds of acres of oaks, yet still ever so gentle enough to persuade even the most delicate of buds to move with, barely, an inch-long effort. My God, seeing kunyuk with that robe triggered something inside. I miss her. I know she'd worked soooo hard to be where she is now. I miss those moments. Though I must admit, maybe, just maybe... Im not running for the same dream anymore. The passion still there, ... it's just become a smaller part of me. Could I have waited this long, and demolished five full years of emotional barricade? Nah. I've walked too far to even think of steeping back. What faith could have, so morbidly, left my judgement impaired? The first scar may be the deepest, but a scar is a scar. ... and one left to bleed without stitches is bound to come undone. Tapi guess what? Im hea...
