Gray

My dearest friend,
life is gray.


That is why,
I prefer giving them emotional support, you prefer giving them a way out. 
I prefer a peck, you prefer a glance.
I prefer the longest route, you prefer the shortest cut.
I prefer taking risks, you prefer playing it safely.
We are unalike.

I believe I am right, but I can't exactly say you are wrong. You are right as well.
Yet at the same time, you are wrong. And so do I.
That makes us similar. 

You know. We all are living in the world of gray.

Now, it is your call to decide, which kind of gray would you prefer?
The lighter one or the darker one?

Siapa yang akan jadi keluarga saya? Bagaimana rumah saya nanti? Apa saja yang harus saya kerjakan? Dan, pertanyaan  yang paling sering muncul adalah apakah saya akan menikmati hidup di sana? Saya bukan orang yang melihat situasi hanya dari nikmat atau tidak nikmatnya saja. Saya punya rasa gengsi yang tinggi untuk mengakui bahwa saya

Brief Answers to the Big Questions - Stephen Hawking

  (curhat sambil semi review buku) I used to think of Stephen Hawking as someone sarcastic and bitter as Richard Dawkins. (Kalau ada yang pernah baca bukunya Dawkins, misalnya yang the God Delusion, pasti mengenali kekhasan cara pandangnya terhadap kreationisme dan hal gaib lai nnya. Kaku bener beb kayak kanebo kering.😅) Secara mendasar, sama seperti Dawkins, Hawking pun menolak kreationisme. Tapi, Hawking expressed  his belief about creationism and other big questions humans have ever had in a kind and humorous way. He did not diminish the magical feeling toward the awe-inspiring universe. But at the same time was also trying to rationally explain how this remarkable world works. Jadi kayak bisa bikin pembaca over-optimistic dan bodoh seperti saya merasa it’s okay to questioning everything sambil tetap hopeful about life… He certainly was a lovely and witty man. Dalam bukunya, Brief Answers to the Big Questions, Hawking menjelaskan konsep-konsep theoretical physics men
