Learn to challenge yourself. Life means more when you live outside your comfort zone, and your limit is bigger than what you think it is.</p><p>2. Enjoy the process of everything. Through the happiness, the stress, the sadness, the rejections, learn to watch how you overcome and live through those experiences and how you grow up.</p><p>3. Always try to finish what you start! That is called GRIT, and you will always need it until your last breath in this earth.</p><p>4. Be aware of your own bias, especially those related to age, gender, race, education, occupation, financial, and religions. Chances are everyone is bias, unless they have lived in all 7 continents, 10+ countries, has been poor & rich, and is raised in a very open-minded environment.</p><p>5. Be kind and reflect on yourself before you judge someone else, because chances are everyone has their own ups and downs, which shape them into what they are right now. If life is easier to everyone of us, maybe we all could become better people.</p><p>6. Do what you want to, as long as it feels right, but try to think a bit about the risk. This is at least my recipe for not to regret for not doing whatever it was I decided not to do, or the opposite.</p><p>7. Don't be sacred to love and to open up. We're all made of bones, muscles, and blood. Even the worst people have hearts. Some need to mature to realize that what they do can impact someone else, and in this some, that includes you, Tania.</p><p>8. Last but maybe the most important for you, be kind to yourself. Love yourself as you want to be loved by others. Listen to yourself when you make mistakes and when someone has done you wrong; cheer and be proud of yourself when you achieve something. </p>Taniahttp://www.blogger.com/profile/01265382442395557817noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3343637343879943707.post-25694940503068405252018-03-09T02:45:00.002+09:002018-03-09T02:45:54.167+09:00European Dream<br />
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span lang="EN-US" style="mso-fareast-language: KO;">I have never
thought that I’m a good child. I always thought that I’m a child who rarely
listen to what my parent said. When my mother told me not to move to Bandung to
study my bachelor degree, I fought her with all my will. (Moreover, painfully,
this is just one example out of many events that I’m not proud to tell). My
dream has always been to live in North/ Western Europe someday. Why? Because my mother has
always told me to live there since it’s a better place in overall compared to
where I came from. She used to live in Netherland for roughly ten years. I was
born there. She never really like living in the country where she had raised me
for almost twenty-five years. So, I always thought that I have to go back there and take her to live with me. <o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span lang="EN-US" style="mso-fareast-language: KO;"><br /></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span lang="EN-US" style="mso-fareast-language: KO;">Up until
this morning, it has always been my goal, but then she told me that the
situation has changed and since I have my family now and due to the recent
refugee issue, living in Europe as an immigrant family would not be easy. <i>It
never occurred to me that I might have possibly sacrifice the future of my own
family to meet my imaginary goal using my mother as an excuse.</i> (Actually, not
only my current family, my dream has indirectly affected some lives I have
shared my past with until this second I’m writing this).<o:p></o:p></span></div>

<span lang="EN-US" style="mso-fareast-language: KO;"><br /></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span lang="EN-US" style="mso-fareast-language: KO;">I have to
admit that being reckless is one of my many weaknesses; a trait which I’m not

Yet
on the other side, I also believe that by being impulsive has brought me to the
life I live now, which for the last several hours I consider to trade with my
lifelong goal. Irony it is. <span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>If there is
a better time to fix my “mistake”, it would be now or never. Being a not so bad

I have experienced in total three deaths of people that are relatively close to
me, my father, my boyfriend, and mother of my boyfriend. Having this experience
reminds me that death is near, that it could happen anytime to anyone around me
including myself, and it could be out of sudden. I have readied myself with the
thought of my mother’s death since I was in high school and for some times
after that. I know I might sound crazy. I thought I was ready for it, but after
watching this movie, I realize that I can never ever be ready with the idea of
losing my beloved mom. Although we are separated by thousands of miles, I love
her a lot. On this stage, I’m not even sure what am I doing here being so far
from her, if this even worth it. It’s like, you have a woman/ man whom you
really treasure and you want to propose with a diamond ring, but you don’t have
the money yet to buy it.<o:p></o:p></span></div>

<br />
Today I just read old post cards that my friend gave to me almost four years ago. There he mentioned that I have an anti social behavior. I gave it a thought.. and it reminds me of an MBTI (Myers–Briggs Type Indicator) test that I took recently which resulted in me being 51% introvert. I have never really learned about psychology (except from Consumer Behavior class that I taught), although being antisocial and introvert is related, but I think it is also affected by other things or contexts. Here my friend only saw me the first time on 2012, while on 2010 I would consider myself as being overly extrovert during my very short time here. During the past years spending my life in Korea, I must admit that I spend time less and less with my friends. I can even count those I consider friends here using one hand only. On the other hand, when I spend my few days in Europe last year, I was being (again) quite extrovert. I reached for people, I went out, it's like the opposite of who I am here. Maybe that is just me. In a new environment I would always try to find out about people around me and how they are like. Anyway.. I'm rambling again.<br />
<br />
Friends. They are probably more important than my own family. I know it makes me sounds like I'm not being thankful for my family but it is true, at least for me. I remember my mom said that my friend won't even do/ think the same about me but that is what I feel about my friendships. As a prove, I cried a tear when I saw Vidi after two years not seeing her, while when I saw my mom, I was just ok. I would do anything for my friends, well maybe not really anything but you get what I mean.<br />
<br />
Here I would like to talk about few of my friends:<br />
1. Vina. She'll be married in less than a month, to someone whom she dated for 8 years or so.<br />
What I like about her? She's honest. She has integrity in her own definition that she doesn't mind whether people would hate her because of that. And she is always there for me, not only through calls, but for real.<br />
What I remember the most about her? She came to mall Lippo Karawaci after I called her to come. I was having a very painful complication of menstrual cramp and acid reflux, while my dearly beloved mother had had to left me to come home, to check whether she has turned off the gas stove. Vina came in less than an hour I think.<br />

I've been using this app since 2012, first time I got my Android phone, Galaxy Ace, and have been using the app after since. I have changed my phone three times, but I can't find better gallery app. Not surprised that CM bought it.
It would be cool if it can provide unlimited storage with compresion like Google Photos though.<br />

<br />
Hate me for forever if that pleases you, if that can help you to forget about me, yet I won't suggest that since we both know it's not good for anyone, mentally and physically.<br />
<br />
I am letting you go with this. Whomever, whatever, wherever you are end up with will no longer bother me, unless it's a critical situation that involves your survival.<br />
<br />
I often made mistakes in decisions that I took, but I will never regret it. No matter what ppl keep reminding me. No matter what you whisper there. This is my life. If it is broken then let it be. You are not responsible of me.

I remember that my mom has his book in Dutch version which maybe published around 1980s?. While I mentioned this book, it made me think, why is it titled Child of All Nations? I wondered, if there are more around hundreds? (I'm not sure) nations in this world, can one be conceived from parents that has combinations of races and cultures from all the nations around the world? (Just checked and turns out there are 195 nations at the moment.)<br />
<br />
This thought leads me to a conversation I had with my friend, <b>Vic</b>. Indeed, a person who has the experience of studying in foreign countries tends to have a (slightly?) more open mind view compared to person who are traped in its own culture and language, even worse, a person who never traveled anywhere inside his/ her own country. A person who study foreign language and culture without having the opportunity to experience the foreign life and yet having no passion to explore its own country, its own culture. Him who does not know about his own people, no matter how many languages he speaks. Which reminds me about two things. An Indonesian idiom, 'Gajah di sebrang lautan nampak, tapi semut di ujung mata tidak terlihat' or to be translated in English, '<i>You can see the elephant across the sea, yet an ant in front of your eyes is invisible</i>'. This idiom is usually used to describe a person who always point out at other persons fault while he/ she's not aware at his/ her own mistakes. I think this quote also applies to the case I mentioned above. The second thing that comes to my mind is a sentence in the book, it said that, the higher someone study, it should not turn him to be an arrogant, yet it should remind him that there are more things to be learn, things that we still don't know; a reminder for someone to be humble.<br />
<blockquote class="tr_bq">
After I read this note again, this might looks like an irony when I myself here writes in English, while my native language is Indonesia. I guess a part of me want this note to be read by people who don't speak Indonesian, so that they can understand a bit about Indonesia.</blockquote>
Anyway, the actual reason why I started to write this note is because, when there is a scene when <b>Mingke </b>(the main character int his novel) finally goes down to the lower class people, through a ride using traditional train with his mother-in-law and an Indo (mix race between Netherlander and Indonesian) journalist. Mingke felt challenged since this journalist accused him that since Mingke is always writing in Dutch (Mingke is half college student and part-time journalist as well that time), he never write in his own people language, which is still Malay, or the region language, Javanese, on that time. Indonesian languange has not been found yet. This decision indicates that Mingke might not know well about his own Javanese people, yet he claims he knows a lot about his people and even more the European (especially Netherland people whom on that time invades Indonesia. The trip that Mingke has reminds me of my own trip when I was still on the elementary school I think, with my mother, to Malang, East Java, Indonesia. My mother was born there on 1959, and so my grandfather and most relatives still stay in Malang on that time.<br />

<br />
<br />
When we departed to Malang, we ride an Economy class train. It was maybe the cheapest class of train that still allows you to sit in the real chair, with 2-2 colums train, with sit made of fade green synthetic leather.<br />
<table align="center" cellpadding="0" cellspacing="0" class="tr-caption-container" style="margin-left: auto; margin-right: auto; text-align: center;"><tbody>

<tr><td class="tr-caption" style="text-align: center;">An example of economy train</td></tr>
</tbody></table>
<br />
I remember that the train stop at every region from Bandung to Surabaya. If I'm not wrong, It was an 15 hours train. And every time it stops, the 'pedagang asongan', or the hawkers, would ride on the train and sell their stuff, ranging from traditional foods to daily amenity stuff that can be sold in small cheap amount.<br />
<table align="center" cellpadding="0" cellspacing="0" class="tr-caption-container" style="margin-left: auto; margin-right: auto; text-align: center;"><tbody>

<tr><td class="tr-caption" style="text-align: center;">Hawkers on the train :)</td></tr>
</tbody></table>
<br />
At that time I thought it was the only train that is available to connect Bandung-Jakarta trip, until when we arrived at Malang and then one of the relatives asks how did we get there, on that time I came to know that it was not the only type of train available. I remember I ask my mother why did we choose to ride that train? The hop-in-hop-off seller is very disturbing, we cannot sleep well and it always stop at the small station. Not to mention that the train does not have air-conditioner, and it only has a small window which you can open to let the outside breeze comes in so that people do not faint inside the train. And don't imagine that at that time economy train in Indonesia is like economy train Japan where everything is clean and people might have showered at least before they traveled. My mom said that it was meant to be a part of my learning, so that I came to know about small people although I guess it was also because my mom need to save some money since my father has passed away on that time, leaving very small amount of money for us to live. When we came back to Bandung from Malang, this time we ride the executive train, which equipt with air-conditioner and straight does to Bandung, stopping only in big stations (around 5 stations only compared to the previous train that we rode which stops at at least 15 stations).<br />

<br />
Another thought that popped in my mind, is that, finally after a long time I started to write something that is meaningful again. Thanks to the Pramoedya's book :) I remember one time I spoke with my uncle's mother, and I said, I think you should write a book, because her stories about when Indonesia's fight towards gaining their independence, or about kids that she taught fascinated me. She's a retired high school teacher, and <i>in my own opinion, person whose job is a teacher, a real passionate one, is one of them who holds a lot of wisdom. A lot of knowledge.</i> A person who does an act, and usually they evaluate those acts, resulting in some conclusion about life, a wisdom, that is useful to be shared. This note is meant to be a part of my life story book someday when I died. Particularly at this moment I fell that I can write and write, but the fire itself is not the most important thing is how we live our life. Another important thing is to know when to stop, and when to start again; to keep the fire steady and never dies no matter what we face in our life, unless our brain does not work anymore. On that time I have to give up :) So, till' another time!<br />

What's the point of keeping images, both static and dynamic of things that will sooner or later lose it's life?<br />
What's the point of giving the best for someone that you love when you yourself can't even live a proper life?<br />
What's the point of satisfying your ego?<br />
Who is the happiest person on Earth? Is it the richest one? The prettiest one?<br />
No. It's them who can be truly happy about themselves, no matter in what condition they are, no matter what people tell them, no matter whether they're limp or blind or living on the street or will die in three days, because in that moment, when you can do something for other people, when you can give your best out of nothing, we learn to appreciate ourselves.To appreciate The Higher Power that created us.<br />
We learn to love life, and not to hold grunge upon it or worse, blaming someone for what happened in our life.<br />
Anyway, this note still lacks of structure and more applicable example, I know, but I hope we might learn something today :)<br />
Cheers!<br />

Triyono diutus untuk ikut pertemuan tentang tanaman hias nasional. Namun sebelum pertemuan dimulai, diruang makan bertemu dengan pejabat Paskomnas Indonesia yang sedang mengadakan pertemuan dihotel yang sama. Setelah saling bicara, akhirnya diketahui kalau dihotel yang sama sedang ada pertemuan antara pejabat Kementerian Pertanian, Kepala-kepala Dinas pertanian + Gapoktan dari sentra cabe & bawang merah se Jawa itu dan mengundang nara sumber dari Pasar Komoditas Nasional Indonesia (Paskomnas Indonesia), dari Bank Indonesia dan dari UNDIP. Triyono yang berasal dari kawasan Agropolitan Merapi-Merbabu yang notabene juga sentra Cabe menjadi tertarik untuk tahu materi bahasan tentang cabe & bawang merah itu.</span><br />
<span style="color: #666666; font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: x-small; line-height: 16px;"><br /></span>
<br />
<div class="NoSpacing" style="color: #666666; font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: 11px; line-height: 16px;">
<span style="font-size: x-small;">Dijelaskan oleh Pejabat Paskomnas Indonesia bahwa, pertemuan tentang cabe & bawang merah kemarin itu difokuskan membahas tentang “stabilisasi harga“ yang oleh pejabat BI, kedua jenis sayur itu memiliki andil terhadap inflasi cukup besar dalam perekonomian Indonesia karena fluktuasi harganya yang tajam.</span></div>
<div class="NoSpacing" style="color: #666666; font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: 11px; line-height: 16px;">
<span style="font-size: x-small;">Dalam pertemuan tentang cabe tersebut, yang sebagian pesertanya adalah ketua-ketua Gapoktan, sejak menit pertama sudah diwarnai dengan keluhan para petani yang dalam proses perdagangan hasil pertanian selalu menjadi pihak yang paling lemah. Masalah yang terjadi dalam usahatani cabe & bawang merah yang dihadapi petani selalu mengerucut kemasalah pemasaran. Dalam pemasaran itu,</span></div>
<div class="NoSpacing" style="color: #666666; font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: 11px; line-height: 16px;">
<span style="font-size: x-small;"><br /></span></div>
<div class="NoSpacing" style="color: #666666; font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: 11px; line-height: 16px;">
<span style="font-size: x-small;">Masalah pertamanya adalah tentang terjadinya harga “jatuh” pada saat tertentu. Disebut “jatuh” karena harga yang diterima petani berada dibawah harga pokok produksi atau </span>break event point<span style="font-size: x-small;"> (BEP)-nya.</span></div>
<div class="NoSpacing" style="color: #666666; font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: 11px; line-height: 16px;">
<span style="font-size: x-small;"><br /></span></div>
<div class="NoSpacing" style="color: #666666; font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: 11px; line-height: 16px;">
<span style="font-size: x-small;">Masalah kedua adalah adanya perbedan harga yang tinggi antara harga ditingkat petani dan harga dipasar.</span></div>
<div class="NoSpacing" style="color: #666666; font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: 11px; line-height: 16px;">
<span style="font-size: x-small;"><br /></span></div>
<div class="NoSpacing" style="color: #666666; font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: 11px; line-height: 16px;">
<span style="font-size: x-small;">Masalah ketiga adalah sering terjadinya “gagal bayar” dari para pedagang daerah. Gagal bayar itu biasanya disebabkan oleh karena pedagang daerah yang suka mengirim sayurnya ke pasar induk di”kemplang” oleh pedagang pasar induk.</span></div>
<div class="NoSpacing" style="color: #666666; font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: 11px; line-height: 16px;">
<span style="font-size: x-small;"><br /></span></div>
<div class="NoSpacing" style="color: #666666; font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: 11px; line-height: 16px;">
<span style="font-size: x-small;">Masalah keempat adalah adanya produk sayur import (termasuk bawang merah & cabe) yang masuk Indonesia dengan harga lebih murah, Produk import yang mutunya bagus itu berperan menyebabkan harga cabe dan bawang merah dalam negeri tertekan turun.</span></div>
<div class="NoSpacing" style="color: #666666; font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: 11px; line-height: 16px;">
<span style="font-size: x-small;"><br /></span></div>
<div class="NoSpacing" style="color: #666666; font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: 11px; line-height: 16px;">
<span style="font-size: x-small;">Dari keempat masalah itu, beberapa peserta mempermasalahkan dengan serius tentang adanya produk import yang masuk kepasar Indonesia. Padahal Indonesia agaknya mampu memproduksinya sendiri. Pejebat pemerintah lalu menjawab kalau import itu dilakukan dalam rangka stabilisasi harga pula yang dilakukan saat harga melambung tinggi yang memberatkan konsumen. Dalam paparannya, Paskomnas Indonesia memberikan informasi bahwa,</span></div>
<div class="NoSpacing" style="color: #666666; font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: 11px; line-height: 16px;">
<span style="font-size: x-small;"><br /></span></div>
<div class="NoSpacing" style="color: #666666; font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: 11px; line-height: 16px;">
<strong style="font-size: small;">Apakah kita defisit produksi …??</strong></div>
<div class="NoSpacing" style="color: #666666; font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: 11px; line-height: 16px;">
<span style="font-size: x-small;">Tidak. Kita surplus. Untuk komoditas Cabe, produksi tahunan Indonesia sekitar 1.378.000 ton. Kebutuhan dalam negri kita sebesar 800.000 ton, sehingga untuk cabe terjadi surplus 578.000 ton. Untuk bawang merah, produksi tahunan Indonesia sekitar 1.050.000 ton, kebutuhan konsumsi konsumsi & pabrikan dalam negri sebesar 935.000 ton, sehingga terjadi surplus 115.000 ton. Dari data tersebut agaknya Indonesia telah “swasembada” bahkan berlebih produk cabe & bawang merah.</span></div>
<div class="NoSpacing" style="color: #666666; font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: 11px; line-height: 16px;">
<span style="font-size: x-small;">Namun masalahnya, karena belum ada pengaturan pola tanam , produksi surplus itu waktunya terjadi pada saat bersamaan antara daerah sehingga menyebabkan harga “jatuh” pada saat terjadi pasokan kepasar bersamaan. Setelah jatuh bersama, maka petani cabe atau bawang merah berhenti menanam, lalu terjadilah harga melambung berlipat-lipat.</span></div>
<div class="NoSpacing" style="color: #666666; font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: 11px; line-height: 16px;">
<span style="font-size: x-small;">Hal tersebut selalu terjadi berlulang-ulang untuk dua komoditas pedas itu. Pada saat harga melambung tinggi itulah, produk import masuk pasar. Yang menjadikan para petani kagum campur “gempung” itu adalah, produk import itu selalu dijual dengan harga murah, lebih murah dibanding harga “normal”-nya cabe & bawang merah kita. Kenapa bisa begitu, semua peserta pertemuan “tak habis piker”. Padahal sebenarnya sangat mudah dipahami. Produk import itu dijual dengan harga rendah dibanding “kemauan” menjual harga tinggi dari petani Indonesia, karena mereka dapat memproduksi dengan biaya “lebih hemat“.</span></div>
<div class="NoSpacing" style="color: #666666; font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: 11px; line-height: 16px;">
<span style="font-size: x-small;"><br /></span></div>
<div class="NoSpacing" style="color: #666666; font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: 11px; line-height: 16px;">
<strong style="font-size: small;">Penentuan harga</strong></div>
<div class="NoSpacing" style="color: #666666; font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: 11px; line-height: 16px;">
<span style="font-size: x-small;">Sebelum menentukan harga, atau membahas tentang harga jual bawang merah atau cabe sebaiknya diketahui lebih dulu BEP masing-masing.</span></div>
<div class="NoSpacing" style="color: #666666; font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: 11px; line-height: 16px;">
<span style="font-size: x-small;">Saat ini BEP cabe masih sangat beragam. Besarnya BEP sangat dipengaruhi oleh “perilaku petani” dalam menerapkan teknologi dan kelembagaan petani. BEP dapat rendah kalau teknologinya baik dan benar sehingga tidak boros. BEP dapat lebih rendah lagi kalau petani bergabung dalam satu gapoktan yang selalu mengadakan kegiatan bersama (kooperatif) mulai dari pembelian sarana produksi, pembuatan pesemaian, menyiapkan irigasi, perawatan tanaman hingga pasca panen dan pemasaran. Sebaliknya BEP dapat tinggi kalau petani dalam berusahanya bertindak sendiri-sendiri. Membeli sarana produksi sendiri-sendiri, menyiapkan irigasi sendiri-sendiri, hingga memasarkan hasilnya sendiri-sendiri.</span></div>
<div class="NoSpacing" style="color: #666666; font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: 11px; line-height: 16px;">
<span style="font-size: x-small;">Berdasarkan hasil survey pihak Paskomnas Indonesia di sentra cabe & bawang merah dibeberapa daerah, BEP cabe merah besar sangatlah beragam besarnya, mulai dari Rp3.100,-/kg, Rp3.250,-/kg, Rp 5.200,-/kg hingga Rp6.200,-/kg. Sementara itu besarnya BEP bawang merahpun beragam ada yang Rp3.800,-/kg, tetapi ada pula yang Rp3.000,-/kg , Rp3.400,-/kg dan Rp3.200,-/kg.</span></div>
<div class="NoSpacing" style="color: #666666; font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: 11px; line-height: 16px;">
<span style="font-size: x-small;"><br /></span></div>
<div class="NoSpacing" style="color: #666666; font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: 11px; line-height: 16px;">
<span style="font-size: x-small;">Dengan mengetahui BEP, lalu dapat ditentukan besarnya harga yang “wajar” ditingkat petani. Harga wajar ditingkat petani untuk komoditas Cabe atau bawang merah yang resikonya tinggi itu sebaiknya sekitar 2,5 kali dari BEP. Dengan berpedoman pada angka 2,5 kali dari BEP, maka harga jual wajar cabe dibeberapa daerah itu bisa mulai Rp7.750,-/kg, Rp8.125,-/kg, Rp13.000,-/kg dan yang tertinggi Rp 15.500,-/kg. Sementara itu harga wajar bawang merahnya menjadi Rp7.500,-/kg, Rp 8.000,-/kg, Rp 8.500,-/kg dan Rp 9.500,-/kg .</span></div>
<div class="NoSpacing" style="color: #666666; font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: 11px; line-height: 16px;">
<span style="font-size: x-small;">Dengan BEP yang berbeda itu, dapat dilihat seberapa besar daya saing produk itu dipasar. BEP yang rendah tentu memiliki daya saing lebih besar. Kalau harga pasar sama, tentu BEP yang rendah memiliki laba lebih besar. Misalnya saja harga cabe besar dipasar berada pada posisi Rp8.000,-/kg, maka petani yang BEP-nya Rp3.100,- dan Rp3.250,- sudah merasa wajar harganya. Namun untuk petani yang BEP-nya Rp5.200,- masih merasakan sebagai harga rendah dan petani yang BEP-nya Rp6.200,-/kg mengangap “harga rugi”.</span></div>
<div class="NoSpacing" style="color: #666666; font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: 11px; line-height: 16px;">
<span style="font-size: x-small;">Demikian pula untuk bawang merah, masing-masing petani antara daerah memiliki produk dengan daya saing yang berbeda.</span></div>
<div class="NoSpacing" style="color: #666666; font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: 11px; line-height: 16px;">
<span style="font-size: x-small;"><br /></span></div>
<div class="NoSpacing" style="color: #666666; font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: 11px; line-height: 16px;">
<span style="font-size: x-small;">Kalau kepasar masuk produk import dengan BEP dan harga jual lebih rendah, maka “habis”lah produk dalam negri itu. Misalnya saja, beberapa bulan lalu masuk bawang merah import kepasar Jakarta, Solo dan Surabaya dengan harga Rp3.500,-/kg maka saat itu semua petani bawang merah kita “menangis” walau tak menetes airmatanya.</span></div>
<div class="NoSpacing" style="color: #666666; font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: 11px; line-height: 16px;">
<span style="font-size: x-small;"><br /></span></div>
<div class="NoSpacing" style="color: #666666; font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: 11px; line-height: 16px;">
<strong style="font-size: small;">Harga tidak wajar.</strong></div>
<div class="NoSpacing" style="color: #666666; font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: 11px; line-height: 16px;">
<span style="font-size: x-small;">Harga disebut wajar kalau tidak merugikan petani, tidak memberatkan konsumen, menguntungkan pelaku perdagangan dan memberi dampak yang baik bagi masyarakat dan ekonomi Negara. Harga disebut “jatuh” kalau yang diterima petani produsen berada jauh dibawah harga wajar. Harga disebut tinggi kalau yang dibayarkan konsumen diatas harga wajar. Tetapi dengan melihat BEP dan perhitungan harga wajar diatas, agak sulit menentukan “harga jatuh” atau harga tinggi itu. Untuk Cabe misalnya, dengan harga diterima petani sekitar Rp8.000,-/kg, petani yang BEP-nya Rp3.100,- dan Rp 3,250,-/kg masih merasa wajar dan tidak jatuh harga. Tetapi bagi petani BEP-nya Rp5.200 dan Rp6.200,- sudah merasa jatuh harga. Konsumen tentu akan selalu minta harga yang wajar dan rendah.</span></div>
<div class="NoSpacing" style="color: #666666; font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: 11px; line-height: 16px;">
<span style="font-size: x-small;"><br /></span></div>
<div class="NoSpacing" style="color: #666666; font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: 11px; line-height: 16px;">
<span style="font-size: x-small;">Suatu ketika terjadi harga tidak wajar yang tinggi atau ekstrim tinggi. Misalnya harga Cabe mencapai lebih dari Rp 30.000,-/kg atau Rp60.000,-/kg, bahkan dibeberapa pasar luar Jawa mencapai Rp100.000,-/kg atau lebih. Pada harga ekstrim itu para petani Cabe tidak juga menikmatinya, karena umumnya barang sudah dikuasai pedagang antara/tengkulak . Sementara itu para konsumen tentu sangat menderita.</span></div>
<div class="NoSpacing" style="color: #666666; font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: 11px; line-height: 16px;">
<span style="font-size: x-small;">Pada saat seperti itu, agaknya pas kalau ada produk import masuk dengan harga wajar. Diwaktu lain, kadang terjadi harga Cabe turun hingga sekitar Rp3.000,-/kg atau dapat disebut “ekstrim rendah”. Pada saat seperti itu, semua petani menderita, namun konsumen juga tidak “makan cabe banyak” karena daya konsumsi cabe sebenarnya tidak berubah. Kebutuhan konsumsi rata-rata cabe dari penduduk Indonesia adalah sekitar 1,40 sampai dengan 4,0 kg/tahun atau rata-rata sekitar 3 kg/tahun. Dari angka sekitar 3 kg/tahun itu, waktu dibutuhkan cabe oleh konsumen sedikit tinggi pada hari-hari puasa, lebaran, hari Natal atau hari besar lain. Dari angka rata-rata itu jumlah kebutuhan cabe pertahun adalah sekitar 800.000 ton atau 800.000.000 kg.</span></div>
<div class="NoSpacing" style="color: #666666; font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: 11px; line-height: 16px;">
<span style="font-size: x-small;">Untuk memenuhi kebutuhan cabe sebesar itu dapat dihitung luas panen harian yang sebaiknya terjadi. </span></div>

<div class="NoSpacing" style="color: #666666; font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: 11px; line-height: 16px;">
<span style="font-size: x-small;">Produktifitas cabe merah rata-rata sebesar 10.000 kg/ha. Luas tanaman cabe dibutuhkan secara nasional 80.000 ha. Kalau dianggap ada gagal panen sekitar 20 %, maka luas cabe dibutuhkan adalah 100.000 ha. Masa panen cabe berlangsung 10 kali petik dengan interval 5 hari atau masa panen total 50 hari. Untuk itu maka luas tanam dalam setahun sebaiknya sebanyak 7 kali saja dengan luasan masing-masing sekitar 15.000 ha/50 hari, atau areal panen harian sekitar 300 ha saja. Pada luas panen harian sekitar 300 ha ini akan terjadi harga wajar. Harga ekstrim rendah atau tinggi akan terjadi kalau luas panen harian jauh diatas atau dibawah angka 300 ha.</span></div>
<div class="NoSpacing" style="color: #666666; font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: 11px; line-height: 16px;">
<span style="font-size: x-small;">Dari perhitungan ini sudah jelas masalahnya. Sekarang tinggal direncanakan bersama agar luas panen harian cabe berjalan normal sekitar 300 ha. Begitu pula untuk komoditas Bawang merah, tomat, kobis atau komoditas strategis lainnya.</span></div>
<div class="NoSpacing" style="color: #666666; font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: 11px; line-height: 16px;">

<div class="NoSpacing" style="color: #666666; font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: 11px; line-height: 16px;">
<span style="font-size: x-small;">Peran pemerintah untuk merencanakan bersama itu sangat penting. Tinggal bagaimana sinergi antara kelompok petani produsen dan penyelenggaran pasar induk seperti Paskomnas dapat ditingkatkan , amatlah diperlukan agar kesejahteraan petani bisa terjadi.</span></div>
<div class="NoSpacing" style="color: #666666; font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: 11px; line-height: 16px;">

<strong style="font-size: small;">Prediksi.</strong></div>
<div class="NoSpacing" style="color: #666666; font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: 11px; line-height: 16px;">
<span style="font-size: x-small;">Bagaimanakah prakteknya penanaman atau luas tanam harian cabe kita sekarang, agaknya di Kementerian Pertanian yang membidangi hortikultura ada angkanya. Yang sulit adalah pengendalian luas tanam harian itu. Tetapi dengan adanya Asosiasi Agribisnis Cabe Indonesia (AACI) pola tanam/pola panen yang wajar itu dapat mulai dikerjakan.</span></div>
<div class="NoSpacing" style="color: #666666; font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: 11px; line-height: 16px;">
<span style="font-size: x-small;"><br /></span></div>
<div class="NoSpacing" style="color: #666666; font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: 11px; line-height: 16px;">
<span style="font-size: x-small;">Yang perlu diwaspadai adalah bahwa, sampai hari ini (minggu-I Juni) luas tanaman cabe yang seumur (yang mungkin ditanam pada hari yang sama dalam kurun waktu 50 hari), jumlahnya mencapai beberapa kali lipat dari 15.000 ha. Itu artinya untuk jangka waktu 2 – 3 bulan kedepan harga cabe akan menurun dan dapat mencapai puncak penurunannya (harga jatuh) sekitar 100 hari kedepan.</span></div>
<div class="NoSpacing" style="color: #666666; font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: 11px; line-height: 16px;">
<span style="font-size: x-small;"><br /></span></div>
<div class="NoSpacing" style="color: #666666; font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: 11px; line-height: 16px;">
<span style="font-size: x-small;">Mudah-mudahan itu tidak terjadi. Kalau itu tidak terjadi, berarti banyak areal cabe yang “gagal panen”. Kalau semua petani berhasil panen, pasokan kepasar induk membanjir, harga diprediksi akan jatuh. </span></div>
<div class="NoSpacing" style="color: #666666; font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: 11px; line-height: 16px;">
<span style="font-size: x-small;">Wah, “maju kena-mundur kena” ini Pak, kata Triyono sedikit </span><span style="font-size: x-small;">panik</span><span style="font-size: x-small;"> mengingat Cabenya yang baru berumur 15 hari.</span></div>

<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: 'Trebuchet MS', sans-serif;"><br /></span><br />
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: 'Trebuchet MS', sans-serif;">Dear Prof Bang,</span><br />
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: 'Trebuchet MS', sans-serif;"><br />Thank you for your time to reply my email, I am really grateful for your concern. I want to ask further about the funded projects.<br />Is it possible for me to participate in it from my 1<sup>st</sup> semester in KAIST? </span><br />
<ul style="list-style-image: initial; list-style-position: initial; margin-bottom: 1em; margin-left: 0px; margin-right: 0px; margin-top: 1em; padding-bottom: 0px; padding-left: 40px; padding-right: 0px; padding-top: 0px;">
<li><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: 'Trebuchet MS', sans-serif;">If it is possible then I would be eager to start as a Master student in KAIST from this Fall 2012.</span></li>
</ul>
<ul style="list-style-image: initial; list-style-position: initial; margin-bottom: 1em; margin-left: 0px; margin-right: 0px; margin-top: 1em; padding-bottom: 0px; padding-left: 40px; padding-right: 0px; padding-top: 0px;">
<li><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: 'Trebuchet MS', sans-serif;">But if it is not possible, then my next option is to register first in KAIST, despite extra travel expense that I have to bear. </span></li>
</ul>
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: 'Trebuchet MS', sans-serif;">My concern is that once I already apply to KAIST and got accepted then it means that I have a responsibility to my recommender (previous advising Prof in ITB) and also you as my advising professor in KAIST. This responsibility does make me hesitate to cancel my acceptance easily, as it might also ruin relationship between KAIST & ITB, please correct me if I’m wrong.</span><br />
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: 'Trebuchet MS', sans-serif;"><br />Honestly, for now, my primary concern is about the money. Please do give your advice if there is other thing that I should prepare before I enter KAIST other than things that have been stated in KAIST website, such as research focus or else.</span><br />
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: 'Trebuchet MS', sans-serif;"><br />Again, I would like to thank you for your time & help, I really appreciate it.</span><br />
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: 'Trebuchet MS', sans-serif;"><br />Sincerely,</span><br />

<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Corbel, sans-serif; font-size: small;"><br />
</span><br />
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Corbel, sans-serif;">Can you recall the last time <span class="Apple-style-span" style="color: #38761d;">you had to deal with a negative or difficult person</span>?<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: small;"> Or the last time </span><span class="Apple-style-span" style="color: #38761d; font-size: small;">someone said something with the intention of hurting you</span><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: small;">?</span><span class="Apple-style-span" style="color: #0b5394;"> </span><span class="Apple-style-span" style="color: #3d85c6;">How did you handle it</span><span class="Apple-style-span" style="color: #0b5394;">?</span><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: small;"> What was the result? What can you do in the future to get through these situations with </span><span class="Apple-style-span" style="color: #e69138;">peace</span><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: small;"> and </span><span class="Apple-style-span" style="color: #cc0000;">grace</span><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: small;">?</span></span><br />
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Corbel, sans-serif;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: small;"><br />
</span></span><br />
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Corbel, sans-serif;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: small;">No matter where we go, we will face people who are negative, people who oppose our ideas, people who piss us off or people who simply do not like us. There are 6.4 billion people out there and </span><span class="Apple-style-span" style="color: #cc0000;">conflict is a fact of life</span><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: small;">. This fact isn’t the cause of conflict but it is the trigger to our emotions and our emotions are what drive us back to our most basic survival instinct; react and attack back to defend ourselves.</span></span><br />
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Corbel, sans-serif;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: small;"><br />
</span></span><br />
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Corbel, sans-serif; font-size: small;">In these instinctual moments, we may lose track of our higher selves and become the human animal with an urge to protect ourselves when attacked. This too is natural. However, we are the only animal blessed with intelligence and having the ability to control our responses. So how can we do that?</span><br />
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Corbel, sans-serif; font-size: small;"><br />
</span><br />
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Corbel, sans-serif; font-size: small;">I regularly get asked “How do you deal with the negative comments about your articles? They are brutal. I don’t think I could handle them.” My answer is simple, “I don’t let it bother me to begin with.” It wasn’t always this simple, and took me some time before overcoming this natural urgency to protect myself and attack back.</span><br />
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Corbel, sans-serif; font-size: small;">I know it’s not easy, if it was easy, there wouldn’t be difficult or negative people to begin with.</span><br />
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Corbel, sans-serif; font-size: small;"><br />
</span><br />
<b><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Corbel, sans-serif;">Why Bother Controlling Our Responses?</span></b><br />
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Corbel, sans-serif; font-size: small;"><br />
</span><br />
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Corbel, sans-serif;">1. Hurting Ourselves</span><br />
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Corbel, sans-serif;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: small;">One of my favorite sayings is “Holding a grudge against someone is like drinking poison and expecting the other person to die.”</span><span class="Apple-style-span" style="color: #cc0000;"> The only person we hurt is ourselves.</span><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: small;"> When we react to negativity, we are disturbing our inner space and mentally creating pain within ourselves.</span></span><br />
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Corbel, sans-serif;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: small;"><br />
</span></span><br />
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Corbel, sans-serif;">2. It’s Not About You, It’s About Them</span><br />
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Corbel, sans-serif;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: small;">I’ve learned that when people initiate negativity, it is a reflection of their inner state expressed externally and you just happen to be in front of that expression. </span><span class="Apple-style-span" style="color: red;">It’s not personal, so why do we take it personally?</span><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: small;"> In short: Because<span class="Apple-style-span" style="color: #38761d;"> </span></span><span class="Apple-style-span" style="color: #38761d;">our ego likes problems and conflict.</span><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: small;"> People are often so bored and unhappy with their own lives that they want to take others down with them.</span></span><br />
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Corbel, sans-serif;">There have been many times when a random person has left a purposefully hurtful comment on TSN, and regularly checked back to see if anyone else responded to their comment, waiting eagerly to respond with more negativity.</span><br />
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Corbel, sans-serif;"><br />
</span><br />
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Corbel, sans-serif;">3. Battle of the Ego</span><br />
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Corbel, sans-serif;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: small;">When we respond impulsively, it is a natural and honest response. However, </span><span class="Apple-style-span" style="color: red;">is it the smart thing to do</span><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: small;">? What can be resolved by doing so? The answer: Nothing. It does however feed our ego’s need for conflict.</span></span><br />
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Corbel, sans-serif;">Have you noticed that when we fight back, it feels really satisfying in our heads? But it doesn’t feel very good in our soul? Our stomach becomes tight, and we start having violent thoughts?</span><br />
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Corbel, sans-serif;">When we do respond irrationally, it turns the conversation from a one-sided negative expression into a battle of two egos. It becomes an unnecessary and unproductive battle for Who is Right?</span><br />
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Corbel, sans-serif;"><br />
</span><br />
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Corbel, sans-serif;">4. Anger Feeds Anger. Negativity Feeds Negativity.</span><br />
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Corbel, sans-serif; font-size: small;">Rarely can any good come out of reacting against someone who is in a negative state. It will only trigger anger and an additional reactive response from that person. If we do respond impulsively, we’ll have invested energy in the defending of ourselves and we’ll feel more psychologically compelled to defend ourselves going forward.</span><br />
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Corbel, sans-serif;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: small;">Have you noticed that </span><span class="Apple-style-span" style="color: red;">the angrier our thoughts become, the angrier we become</span><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: small;">? It’s a negative downward spiral.</span></span><br />
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Corbel, sans-serif;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: small;"><br />
</span></span><br />
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Corbel, sans-serif;">5. Waste of Energy</span><br />
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Corbel, sans-serif;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="color: red;">Where attention goes, energy flows</span><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: small;">. What we focus on tends to expand itself. Since we can only focus on one thing at a time, energy spent on negativity is energy that could have been spent on our personal wellbeing.</span></span><br />
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Corbel, sans-serif;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: small;"><br />

<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Corbel, sans-serif;">6. Negativity Spreads</span><br />
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Corbel, sans-serif;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: small;">I’ve found that </span><span class="Apple-style-span" style="color: red;">once I allow negativity in one area of my life, it starts to subtly bleed into other areas as well.</span><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: small;"> When we are in a negative state or holding a grudge against someone, we don’t feel very good. We carry that energy with us as we go about our day. When we don’t feel very good, we lose sight of clarity and may react unconsciously to matters in other areas of our lives, unnecessarily.</span></span><br />
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Corbel, sans-serif;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: small;"><br />
</span></span><br />
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Corbel, sans-serif;">7. Freedom of Speech</span><br />
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Corbel, sans-serif;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: small;">People are as entitled to their opinions as you are. </span><span class="Apple-style-span" style="color: #38761d;">Allow them to express how they feel and let it be</span><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: small;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="color: #38761d;">.</span> Remember that </span><span class="Apple-style-span" style="color: red;">it’s all relative and a matter of perspective</span><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: small;">. What we consider positive can be perceived by another as negative. When we react, it becomes me-versus-you, who is right?</span></span><br />
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Corbel, sans-serif; font-size: small;">Some people may have a less than eloquent way of expressing themselves – it may even be offensive, but they are still entitled to do so. They have the right to express their own opinions and we have the right and will power to choose our responses. We can choose peace or we can choose conflict.</span><br />

While he was down there, with seizure attacked him all over his body, people was just starred at him at first, some were shocked, until several seconds later (which felt like more than a minute for me) several people started to crowd around him. They began to nudge and call that man; that people, me, we didn’t know what to do. There was no paramedic at that moment, people was busy and aware for their arriving train, and most of all, we don’t know how to give first aid for him.<o:p></o:p></span></div><div class="MsoNormal"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Corbel, sans-serif;"> </span></div><div class="MsoNormal"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Corbel, sans-serif;">It was easy to talk about humanity and everything, but when we were faced with real problem, in such a dillematic condition, and what do we do??<o:p></o:p></span></div><div class="MsoNormal"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Corbel, sans-serif;">I terribly regret my decision this afternoon. I, beyond many people, should have more thing for humanity, I am young, I can act fast, I should have just run upstair to the nearest watchman, and ask him to give first aid to that poor man. More than that, I should have knew how to give first aid in such situation like that!<o:p></o:p></span></div><div class="MsoNormal"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Corbel, sans-serif;">And in all my way to home on the train, I can’t stop thinking, how if it was my mother who got epilepsy or heart attack, and people was just crowded around her with noone actually think about asking for help, or able to give first aid. When I began to think about it I can feel my tears fell down (perhaps it was more caused by my unstable hormones at the moment).</span><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: inherit;"><o:p></o:p></span></div><div class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-family: inherit; font-size: small;"> </span></div><br />

</span><br />
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Corbel, sans-serif; font-size: small;">Is it true that I make my own happiness?</span><br />
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Corbel, sans-serif; font-size: small;">It seems that for most of the times I make my happiness by making other people happy.</span><br />
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Corbel, sans-serif; font-size: small;">The happiness itself is (I believed) induced from other, either I help to make it or it is being passed from one to another until it finally came to me.</span><br />
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Corbel, sans-serif; font-size: small;">Have you ever heard a story about how kindness is being passed from one people to another?</span><br />
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Corbel, sans-serif; font-size: small;">There is always a person that start it at first, but then somehow it never stops at one person.</span><br />
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Corbel, sans-serif; font-size: small;"><br />
</span><br />
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Corbel, sans-serif; font-size: small;">How about the idea of trying to be the first one that creates the happiness for people around you?</span><br />
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Corbel, sans-serif; font-size: small;">I believe it will come back to us someday, I am not sure when.</span><br />
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Corbel, sans-serif; font-size: small;">If you haven't try it before, make tomorrow your first day!</span><br />
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Corbel, sans-serif; font-size: small;">Believe in yourself, be strong for yourself and for others around you; as it will be passed on until someday it comes to reach you from the hand of others :)</span><br />

Soalnya kadang di sekitar kita terlalu ribut oleh aktivitas orang-orang yang kita kenal. Another curcol :p Makanya mungkin itu yang disebut, sekelilingku ramai, tapi aku merasa sepi, nah, keadaan ini yang ingin g cari saat ini. Sepi dan tenang. Berpikir dan bekerja dengan damai.

With me just saying, "STOP being selfish!", it won't help anything. There're some ways that I find helpful for me.. by writing this note is also one way for me to express my feeling, to sort-out my feeling, and to become my own evaluation. By writing this note and constantly read it, I hope it will remind me of my decision, for the sake of an ideal state (or at least what I thought is ideal for the present condition, the present state). I'm sure that maybe some of people attached to my decision (orang kedua, ketiga, keempat, kelima, dst) will be disappointed in some way, but I'm also write this note to give you courage to make the right decision for yourself. To let the time solved my problem makes me looks like an irresponsible person (jadi ingat ada masalah lama juga yang belum selesai. ahh... philio, philio. hehe).<o:p></o:p></span></span></div><div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Corbel, sans-serif;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: small;"><br />

Think carefully, use your mind, listen to your sense.. Take the time for yourself and you may ignore the other for a day (just a short time for yourself while the rest already spent with others). Kalau saya sih.. ngerasanya ga tenang selama masih ada masalah yang mengganjal seperti ini, selain karena sudah tidak ideal, mau ngapa-ngapain juga jadi ga konsen :).<o:p></o:p></span></span></div><div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Corbel, sans-serif;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: small;"><br />
</span> </span></div><div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Corbel, sans-serif;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: small;">Solusi kedua, yang entah guna atau enggak, tapi biasanya sih lumayan buat meringankan beban dalam hati, yaitu dengan cerita sama org lain. Yahh.. minta sudut pandang lain lah. Kadang guna, soalnya kadang solusi yang dkasih org lain bisa lebih ideal drpd solusi kita (tentunya kalo kita cerita sama org yg lebih berpengalaman n terkenal bisa berpikir rasional juga :p). Kadang ga guna, ini biasanya kalo kita cerita sama temen sebaya kita yang sebenernya ga terallu peduli sama kita n yah cuma jadi tong sampah sepintas lalu aja :p. Atau ga kadang ga guna soalnya ternyata solusi kita lebih rasional n lebih cocok daripada solusi-solusi yang diobral sama orang-orang itu (kaya orang sakit kanker, dikasih saran miunum obat herbal ini itu padahal solusinya mungkin ada di dalam emosi kita dan tentunya pola makan. *yg ini bener-bener ga nyambung jadi boleh dibaca sepintas lalu aja<o:p></o:p></span></span></div><div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Corbel, sans-serif;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: small;"><br />
</span> </span></div><div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Corbel, sans-serif;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: small;">Solusi lain lagi... berdoa :) kadang berdoa bener-bener bisa menenangkan pikiran, tapi tentunya cara ini cuma berlaku buat yang non atheis :) Selain itu, bisa juga dengan mencari kualitas-kualitas lain dalam diri orang lain yang bisa membuat pikiran kita teralih. yah, intinya mengalihkan pikiran sih. Kadang tiba-tiba kita bisa menemui kualitas-kualitas baru dalam diri orang lain, entah yang baru kenal, atau yang sudah kenal lama (bener loh, kadang saya juga masih kaget kalo ngobrol sama sahabat atau pasangan. Karena ternyata saya masih belum mengetahui kualitas dirinya yang itu). <o:p></o:p></span></span></div><div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Corbel, sans-serif;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: small;"><br />
</span> </span></div><div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Corbel, sans-serif;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: small;">Lantas, nah yang ini baru kepikiran, buang segala praduga atau kegeeran2 Anda (yang ini buat sahabat baik saya berinisial V :p). Kadang sebenarnya mereka hanya mengagumi kualitas-kualitas Anda tanpa ada maksud untuk menjalin hubungan dengan Anda. Karena untuk menjalin sebuh hubungan, yang diperhatikan tidak cuma kualitas, tapi juga kedewasaan emosi seseorang, latar belakang keluarga, etc. Uppsss.. saya mulai rancu. Jangan-jangan semua yang saya sebutkan ini juga kualitas? Sepertinya begitu. Yasudahlah, tidak penting. toh note ini tidak akan mempengaruhi hidup Anda sebanyak dia mempengaruhi hidup saya. Apabila Anda meraa bahwa note ini ditujukan untuk Anda, maka Anda tidak sepenuhnya salah (ya memang sedikit banyak untuk disharekan buat kalian semua :p), tapi sebenarnya note ini lebih sebagai sarana pelampiasan emosi saya yang sedang tidak karuan. Note ini saya tujukan untuk masa depan saya :)<o:p></o:p></span></span></div><div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Corbel, sans-serif;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: small;"><br />

<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Corbel, sans-serif;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: small;">Melogikakan Cinta</span></span><br />
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Corbel, sans-serif;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: small;"><br />
</span> </span><br />
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Corbel, sans-serif;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: small;">Pertama-tama, mohon maaf atas tulisan saya yg tidak berbobot ini :)</span></span><br />
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Corbel, sans-serif;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: small;"><br />
</span> </span><br />
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Corbel, sans-serif;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: small;">Yap, judulnya aja tentang Cinta. Si kata dengan 5 huruf itu, C-I-N-T-A. Kata yg bisa membuat orang jungkir balik, lari-lari saking kesenengannya ato bahkan sampe hampir mau bunuh diri saking sedihnya. Baru aja sih tadi terpikir pas di kamar mandi sambil sikat gigi :p, love should not complicate your life. It should makes you smile and feel extraordinary. (I use the word ‘should’ which means that the things that I wrote were all based on my idealism. And one thing that I learn is that; don't ever mess with other people idealism. Since you can't change that, you can only give another point of view to that people.) Today I woke up with such an unpleasant morning and it is annoying. Since I already plan this day to write my thesis and somehow I read a text message that ruined my mood for this day.</span></span><br />
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Corbel, sans-serif;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: small;"><br />
</span> </span><br />
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Corbel, sans-serif;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: small;">Until now, I believe that love should be something that would bring happiness and peace. Philio. But then why, in the reality it brings not just happiness but also sorrow?</span></span><br />
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Corbel, sans-serif;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: small;">Haha... Duhh. jadi inget pas waktu tingkat-tingkat sarjana awal dulu juga pernah mikir begini :)</span></span><br />
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Corbel, sans-serif;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: small;"><br />
</span> </span><br />
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Corbel, sans-serif;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: small;">Hmm.... Mungkin itu yang terjadi kalo cinta yang lo katakan itu bukan "pure love" sebenernya. Coz I'm sure, that pure love won't give you any burden. It won't burden anyone! Cinta yang murni itu tidak egois dan tidak meminta balasan (for example: the love from our parents). Cinta ada untuk diberikan dengan gratis dan kalau org itu tidak mau terima, yasudah.. tetaplah cintai dia sampai cinta itu habis. Toh meskipun cintamu itu tidak bersambut (entah karena memang dianya ga mau atau karena kondisi yg tidak memungkinkan) tapi kan pada dasarnya yang kita cintai dr orang itu adalah kualitas dirinya. Nilai-nilai yang ada dalam dirinya itulah yang membuat kita jatuh cinta :) Hal ini pula yang memungkinkan kita mencintai lebih dari satu orang tertentu (one specified people. Nyelimur donk. Ntah kenapa g sering menggunakan kata ini, ‘<i>specified</i>’. ‘<i>An exact, specified condition.</i>’ Ok, ini bisa menjadi topik lain untuk dibahas di note berikutnya mungkin. Entah kapan :p ). </span></span><br />
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Corbel, sans-serif;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: small;"><br />
</span> </span><br />
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Corbel, sans-serif;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: small;">Okay, mungkin ini juga yang menyebabkan g pengen single dulu sebenernya untuk saat ini. And I know that this is an unwise statement to say when you're in a relationship and your couple might read this and start asking many things and maybe finally break up with you though you don't want it (another curcol :p). Jadi, kenapa g mau single dulu, mungkin sebenarnya karena g pengen mencintai sebanyak mungkin orang. I love their quality but I don't want to be in a relationship until the right time. Karena pada umumnya, ketika kita terlibat dalam sebuah hubungan, pasangan (dan saya sendiri juga, biasanya :p) akan menuntut sebuah cinta yg tunggal. Egois. Manusia itu pada dasarnya egois (lagi-lagi menurut saya loh ya). Dan ketika kita mencintai kualitas yg ada pada diri org lain biasanya pasangan tidak bisa menerimanya. Tapi yah.. kalau kita memang dari awal sudah terlanjur menjalin komitmen, mungkin tantangan yang paling penting adalah bagaimana caranya agar:</span></span><br />
<ol><li><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Corbel, sans-serif;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: small;">Menjadi pasangan yang berpikiran terbuka dan mengurangi sikap keegoisan kita. Terima saja kalau memang ada orang lain yang mempunyai kualitas yang lebih baik drpd kita, toh memang setiap itu punya kelebihan dan kekurangan yang berbeda :) Jadi ya jangan marah-marah lagi kalau pasangan asik ngobrol dengan lawan jenis yang memang memiliki kualitas yg dikagumi pasangan. (Poin ini terutama menjadi evaluasi buat diri saya sendiri karena selama ini pun saya cencerung egois.)</span></span></li>
<li><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Corbel, sans-serif;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: small;">Menjaga komitmen yang sudah ada. Bagaimanapun menariknya kualitas yang terdapat pada diri orang lain itu, tetap, jangan lupa bahwa kamu punya komitmen. Dengan umur di atas 20 tahun seperti sekarang ini rasaya kita harusnya sudah lebih dewasa dan sudah tidak bermain-main lagi dengan yang namanya komitmen. Meskipun pada awalnya komitmen itu dibuat dengan kasadaran yg belum sepenuhnya akan tanggung jawab (hak dan kewajiban) yang terikut bersama dengan komitmen itu, tapi dengan kedewasaan pemikiran kita sekarang harusnya komitmen itu lebih mudah dijalani. Ketertarikan dan kekaguman itu hukum alam. Mau dibagaimanakan lagi, wong namanya suka. Yang kita sukai itu kualitas. Sama seperti membeli barang, beli barang bagus, bulan depan ketemu barang yang beda tapi kualitasnya juga bagus ya dibeli lagi. Tapi kan bukan brarti ketemu yg baru, lantas yang lama dilupakan. Ya itu namanya komitmen, setia, <i>op een persoon</i>. Walaupun rasanya pembicaraan seperti takkan pernah habis dengan si orang berkualitas itu, tapi kan pasangan kita juga bukannya tanpa kualitas. Hanya karena kita sudah kenal lebih lama saja makanya seperti tidak ada yg baru. Berikanlah waktu-waktu terbaikmu untuk pasanganmu. Kecuali kalau kamu memang sudah hilang rasa ya sudahi saja, daripada makan ati buat dua-duanya (ya masak tiga, taniaaa... )</span></span></li>
