today’s stories about shoes…

story 1.
Tadi siang mamah bilang…kita mesti beli sepatu & selop buat seserahannya mas Ino & Tari…
”Kenapa dua-duanya ? Ga bisa satu aja ? Selop or sepatu ?”
”Ga, mesti dua-duanya”
“Kenapa ?“
Mamah mulai pake dalih anak perrempuan mamah banyak...ntar kl di kasih seadanya sm calonnya jg mamah sakit hati…”Udah deh, beliin aja selop sama sepatu”, gitu katanya…
Hiiihh…masa iya kita mau kasih Tari seadanya...?!
Hmm...akhirnya aku diem aja...bukan setuju...bukan setuju...cuma pengen mengurangi hal-hal yg mungkin bisa bikin kita jadi ”tinggi”, krn aku tau masih banyak hal laen yg mgkn bgt bikin kita jadi super tegang...so aku blg, ”oke deh”...

story 2.
Nonton oprah show...(a very inspiring show, in both, good way and bad way)
Salah satu penontonnya beli sepatu bekas Oprah di acara lelang…
Disimpen di lemarinya...bukan buat dipake...
Trus...dia blg, when i feel sad & inconfidence…I put those shoes in my foot…
then I walked like I have her strength & her self-confidence…
…………………………………………(huhuhuhuuuuuu…mewekk…)
Luar biasa ya ?

story 3.
have you ever really try to stand on someone’s shoe ?
sounds like a simple question…
masih logika yg sama,
dinamika yg ga berbeda,
& fakta lain yang mendukung...
hari ini...& hari2 sebelumnya, setiap orang “sibuk”...
sibuk sama pikirannya sendiri...sama perasaannya sendiri...
sama asumsi2nya sendiri...
segitu ”sibuk”nya, sampe kadang lupa...whether it is really happened or not...
segitu “sibuk”nya, sampe lupa…lupa sama tujuan yg awal banget……yang biasanya, tujuan awal ini pasti tujuan yang baik…
segitu “sibuk”nya, sampe lupa nanya…yg kita sangka baik…apa juga baik menurut kacamata orang lain ??
malah fenomenanya...”karena aku sayang kamu, makanya aku tau apa yg terbaik buatmu...”
trus, ”sibuk” sama rencana-rencana yg disusun berdasar asumsi2...
yakin, pasti rencananya yg terbaik...pasti!!
lupa untuk bicara...lupa untuk peduli...lupa untuk mendengar...
have you ever really try to stand on someone’s shoe ?
don’t answer it now…since it is not a simple question…

'till there was you

There were bells on a hill
But I never heard them ringing
No, I never heard them at all
Till there was you

There were birds in the sky
But I never saw them winging
No, I never saw them at all
Till there was you

Then there was music and wonderful roses
They tell me in sweet fragrant meadows
Of dawn and dew

There was love all around
But I never heard it singing
No I never heard it at all
Till there was you

Then there was music and wonderful roses
They tell me in sweet fragrant meadows
Of dawn and dew

There was love all around
But I never heard it singing
No, I never heard it at all
Till there was you
Till there was you

one of my favorite songs...
