Puncak atau Lembah
[1] “Mau jadi puncak atau lembah?” “Toh sama saja, tergantung mata!”
Mengapa? menjadi lembah tak sedikitpun membuatmu kehilangan bahagia.
Lihatlah! orang di puncak melihatmu dari sana tunduk ke bawah, pasrah berharap hidup melingkar tak kehilangan sabar.
Maka saat jadi lembah jangan berpikir puncak. Akibatnya lembah tak lekas dipijak, puncak tak kunjung didaki!
[2] Lagi-lagi mata, membuatmu berbeda

Manusia Cahaya Tapi Gelap
Manusia Cahaya Tapi Gelap
Pada momentum tertentu setiap manusia bisa masuk ke dalam relung batin terdalamnya. Di situ mencoba mempertanyakan hakikat dirinya yang mungkin hanya menempati posisi seujung debu dari ke-maha-luasan semesta. Begitu super-kecilnya manusia dihadapan semesta, apalagi ketika berhadapan dengan Sang Pencipta. Sungguh segala keunggulan fisik manusia tidak bisa diandalkan di depan-Nya.
Bila ditelusuri…

Kepada Alam
Keindahan tak pernah hadir dalam kesendirian.
Itu adalah harmoni dari unsur-unsur semesta yang saling melebur.
Seakan-akan ingin menunjukkan pada kita: pemeliharanya.
Bahwa apa yang nampak itu adalah kakak kandung manusia, ia yang ditakdirkan melayani.
Harusnya kita malu bercermin pada cakrawala, pada birunya langit tanpa cela.
Atau setidaknya tertunduk pada bumi yang selalu terinjak bahkan…

Irama Normal
setiap aksi ada ekspresi
setiap canda ada tawa
setiap amuk ada remuk
setiap sabar ada syukur
setiap desah ada resah
setiap tunggu ada rindu
setiap pergi ada yang dinanti
setiap diam ada yang dipendam
setiap renung ada yang dikenang
setiap kata ada nuansa
setiap kalimat ada yang tersirat
tiap-tiap itu aku ada.

Senja Kita
senja itu dinanti
datang tepat waktu
begitu datang
segera berlalu
begitu dia pergi
memulas warna rindu:
merah
kuning
jingga
biru
ungu,
dan menyatu.
Senjamu?
mungkin senjaku juga
karena senja akan jadi batas,
pembatas waktu kita
sampai kapan kita bersatu
aku pun tak pernah tahu

Semi
di batas horizon langit membiru
tak ada lagi pucuk-pucuk ranting
menusuk awan Tenggara
barisan dahan menyisir hijau
memayungi tanah retak
menguap haus humus.
rumput-rumput yang dulu rebah
semak-semak yang tertidur
kini menyembul kuncup
berseri bunga jalanan.
anak-anak bebek kembali ke lorong kanal
menyapa angsa muda bercinta
burung-burung air mengeram sendiri di tepi danau
bersangkar ilalang…

Antara Eiffel dan Seine
Antara Eiffel dan Seine
langkahku mulai menginjak debu jalanan itu
dari trotoar yang menganga
tergerus hentakan kaki para pemburu waktu
tergesa-gesa aku terdorong ke tengah
di lorong-lorong angkuh metro Bercy
gerbong senyap berjubal punggung
mengantarku ke bawah tanah,
jeritan roda besi berkarat mengerati rel-rel tua
jalur Camp de Mars ku tuju
di tepi nadi sungai Seine
aku jadi saksi sisi lain itu
Eiffel itu romantis

Titik Jenuh
Tuhan,
apakah Engkau sedang menjauhiku?
tetiba hampa penghampiriku
menyergap pikiranku
mengosongkan naluriku
menghentikan kerjaku.
Aku jadi lelah
Aku jadi jenuh
Kembalikan ragaku!
Wahai yang Maha Rahim
aku ini milikmu
jangan kau jauhi
tolonglah aku!
Aku tak bisa berharap pada yang tak abadi.

Barangkali salah satu alasan orang tua tak mengizinkan anaknya naik permainan ini ialah keselamatan yang ditandai oleh desiran was-was bila sang anak terpelanting menghantam benda keras sehingga mengakibatkan luka serius di bagian kepala. Sebagai orang yang lebih tua, mereka mafhum konsekuensi logis cidera di bagian otak akan berakibat pada terputusnya ruh terhadap jasad.
Di lain sisi, bagi anak, jenis permainan–komidi putar?–terasa menantang adrenalin sebagai salah satu pengalaman mengasyikan yang boleh jadi jarang dialami selama usia anak-anak berakhir. Pendeknya, dunia anak adalah dunia imajinasi yang tak boleh dibungkam oleh kata “tidak” atau pelbagai sikap yang mengarah pada negasi, ketidakbolehan, larangan, pembatasan, atau represi.
Sejauh pemantauan orang tua akan keamanan permainan bagi anak, sudah sepatutnya ia memberikan ruang kepada ananda demi ekspresi kreativitasnya. Kalau tidak, aku yakin anak itu akan merasa pilu. Karena itu, di kemdudian hari, ia akan balas dendam untuk mencoba permainan itu diam-diam. Seperti diriku yang begitu girang setelah duduk di kursi hangat yang terikat sabuk kencang itu.

It’s a long-standing tradition for the sitting president of the United States to leave a parting letter in the Oval Office for the American elected to take his or her place. It’s a letter meant to share what we know, what we’ve learned, and what small wisdom may help our successor bear the great responsibility that comes with the highest office in our land, and the leadership of the free world.
But before I leave my note for our 45th president, I wanted to say one final thank you for the honor of serving as your 44th. Because all that I’ve learned in my time in office, I’ve learned from you. You made me a better President, and you made me a better man.
Throughout these eight years, you have been the source of goodness, resilience, and hope from which I’ve pulled strength. I’ve seen neighbors and communities take care of each other during the worst economic crisis of our lifetimes. I have mourned with grieving families searching for answers – and found grace in a Charleston church.
I’ve taken heart from the hope of young graduates and our newest military officers. I’ve seen our scientists help a paralyzed man regain his sense of touch, and wounded warriors once given up for dead walk again. I’ve seen Americans whose lives have been saved because they finally have access to medical care, and families whose lives have been changed because their marriages are recognized as equal to our own. I’ve seen the youngest of children remind us through their actions and through their generosity of our obligations to care for refugees, or work for peace, and, above all, to look out for each other.
I’ve seen you, the American people, in all your decency, determination, good humor, and kindness. And in your daily acts of citizenship, I’ve seen our future unfolding.
All of us, regardless of party, should throw ourselves into that work – the joyous work of citizenship. Not just when there’s an election, not just when our own narrow interest is at stake, but over the full span of a lifetime.
I’ll be right there with you every step of the way.
And when the arc of progress seems slow, remember: America is not the project of any one person. The single most powerful word in our democracy is the word ‘We.’ ‘We the People.’ 'We shall overcome.’
Yes, we can.
And if you’d like to stay connected, you can sign up here to keeping getting updates from me.

Women make better parents
Parent plays a major role in children development. It is conducted by both of women and men as their parent within unity aspect. Many people think that women create better looking after than men. I agree that women have a dominant role in educating their children because of several reasons, two of which are sensitivity and creativity.
Women have capabilities to stimulate the children’s sensitivity dealing with a family relationship. Based on the biological term, women have influenced their children since a fetus, and followed by a child initially to breastfeed from the mother. It has been affected by the hormonal system such as oxytocin. According to the current research, the oxytocin hormone so-called “love hormone” as a vital role to build the closeness relationship between child and mother. Besides of that case, the mother also promotes children to approach with all of the family members. Therefore, women as a mother provide the first place for growing up the kid's personality to recognize a particular sense.
The other reason is that women can persuade the children’s creativity. Admittedly, our mothers are very concerned with the kids' activities regarding playing a particular predilection. Furthermore, she always provides some toys which contain educational aspects about burnishing creativity, such as puzzles, building blocks, music instruments, molding clay and dough. Those kinds of toys can improve creativity skill day to day. Therefore, a parent can encourage their children creativity with suitable toys as long as their interest.
In conclusion, the learning process to engage sensitivity and creativity of children is mostly controlled by women as their parent. Hence, women can strengthen those aspects rather than men because women have flexibilities to manage children properly.
Should everyone become a vegetarian ?
Currently, health issues bring about a powerful effect on people’s lifestyle, including that of the vegetarian. Vegetarians tend to avoid the consumption of meat and poultry. They believe that meat consumption can impact the body negatively. I firmly believe that a vegetarian diet could be an option, but eating a balanced and varied food is more beneficial for the body.
Vegetarians believe that eating red meat had a greater risk associated with cardiovascular diseases such as stroke, coronary heart disease, clogged arteries, and others. It is caused by a buildup of cholesterol from excessive meat intake. In addition, the vegetarian lifestyle is also influenced by environmental factors. There is an assumption that the livestock contributes to the environmental damage in terms of deforestation and excessive water consumption. Therefore, reducing meat consumption would eliminate the potential for environment risk that is caused by the opening of new farmland.
However, the human digestive system is designed to digest a variety of derived-food from plants and animals efficiently, which is supported by the following two reasons. Firstly, since ancient times, the human instinct for survival has been done by eating plant and meat by daily hunting. Secondly, the human stomach is able to extract animal meat containing a vital source of mineral and protein that are not available from other food. Some of that mineral components are responsible for muscle and bone formation. Furthermore, abstinence from meat, they would interfere with the body’s metabolism. Finally, human requires consumption of meat in a particular proportion.
In conclusion, everyone should not change into a vegetarian diet because meat consumption is also required. Controlling a balanced diet becomes more important in the maintenance of a healthy body day to day.
Alternative Energy for Electricity
Electricity needs in Indonesia has been increasing steadily each year. However, the driving force for power plant still relies on petroleum. Large oil consumption for power production has occupied on the second level, after transportation aspect. This situation needs to be immediately overcome by this country to reduce run out of fossil energy reserves. Therefore, it is necessary using alternative energy that is derived from renewable resources such as wind, geothermal, and solar power to generate electricity.
The availability of Indonesia wind resources is unlimited. It is influenced by the position of the country that is flanked with two oceans, the Pacific Ocean and the Indian Ocean. These are led Indonesia to get large daily wind gusts and seasonal winds. Now, wind power is already beginning to be used to move the windmill as an energy sources. However, production capacity is still low, so it needs to be enlarged through the construction of large-scale wind turbine in coastal areas.
Another alternative energy is also provided by geothermal. The exploration of geothermal wells has been starting. Geothermal releases heat energy from the volcano bowels and flows through soil cracks. High temperature and pressure are able to drive a steam engine inside the power-plant.
As a tropical country, Indonesia is also endowed with energy resources of sunlight every day. That never-run-out-energy source can be used as solar power. This device is able to applied in large scale of household because it can be installed on the house rooftop. It can be used to supply the electricity within that households.
Finally, there are many potential sources of alternative renewable energy which is owned by Indonesia country. Therefore, it is the best time for this country to utilize alternative energy besides petroleum for electric production.
