Is There a Way to Make Everyone Loves You?

I guess there is no way we can please everyone, let alone ask everyone to love us.

You can still try to make people like you, though.

You can be:

a good listener
a helpful friend
a supportive family member
a loving partner,

but there is no guarantee that you will be loved by the deeds you have done.

People are unconsciously conditioned to like or dislike certain things or other people. They have their own perception of what's good or bad, which could be quite different from your perception of good and bad.

So... In the end, just be unapologetically you.

Stay true to who you are.

Know that whenever someone judges you, they actually judge their perception of you. Which most possibly is not the real you.

Know that any concept that molds our worldly status is just, well... worldly. Ephemeral. Impermanent.

Keep spreading love and kindness. And never let anyone or anything stops you from doing good.

Because you can't be perfect for everyone, but you can always try to do your best every day.

Kegiatan itu disebut live in. Aku sebenarnya sudah pernah menulis soal live in di blog ini, tapi tidak lengkap.

Nah, demi mempermudah dokumentasi, aku mau copy paste tulisan lengkap live in-ku ke sini. hehehe. *** Memilih Bahagia oleh Eunike Adiprasasti / XIIA2/ 11 Hari pertama sampai di Wonosari saya merasa takut sekaligus excited. 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 m...

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 ph...
