the Story of the Mother Cat

It's been awhile since the last time I write. These past days went crazy. I had final exam, I had lots of work, and at the end.... I'm exhausted. But not in the negative way because I'm feeling blessed for everything that I accomplished.

And today I'd like to write about a bond between a mother and a child.

A few days ago, I went ngebakso with my Momma. Yes, ngebakso gerobakan. And we were surrounded by wild cats consist of a mother cat with its 2 kittens (Cute overloads!). And as we knew, cats love to asked for foods, there weren't any different from these cats.

The mother cat jumped to the empty chair right next to me, poked me with its paw, and meow-ing me with its big eyes, coding that she wanted me to share my food with her. Have you ever watch Puss in Boots in Shrek when he had his cute face mode on? The mother cat DID that to me. Gosh, How can't I resist?!

I cut my meatballs and dropped it to the floor, the mother cat saw me then she jumped to the floor, sniffed the meatballs, and just then before she started to eat, her 2 kittens approached to her. She didn't do anything but she pushed the meatballs to get closer with her children. The 2 kittens sniffed the meatballs too, and the mother cat sat there peacefully while her children ate the meatballs.

I was touched.

The mother cat looked starving but she gave her meatballs to her children, like duh, even animals have feeling! Even the wild cat has that!

I told my Momma what just I saw before, and she laughed. "That's a mother, honey," she said calmly.

But I felt sorry for the mother cat because she didn't eat...

Then, as if she knew what I thought, my Momma dropped her meatballs to the mother cat. The cat looked at my Momma, but she doubtly sat there. As if she didn't know whether she was going to eat it or give it to her children.

"Eat. You're hungry, aren't you?" Said my Momma to her. "I'm giving you this, don't waste it."

The mother cat meow-ing my Momma as if she said, "Thank you", right before she started to eat the meatballs.

That day, a simple lesson of life came out from the animal. Us, as human, should be ashamed.

(Different) Twins

Dear Nadia, I never thought that I can befriend with you. It's nice having a good friend, a dear good friend, that's an introvert version of my self. You're the INTP and I'm the ENTP, so I'm feeling like you know me better than anyone else. As I said earlier to you, maybe we're like twins. It's just the one tiny different that makes us different, and I'm glad with it. Honestly, before I met or knew you, I thought you're an arrogant and selfish woman because you look soooooo quite and you're classy (SERIOUSLY), LOL. Even before our introduction, I always love your sense of fashion... Your sense of fashion is a little bit similar to me. And once again, I think we're twins from different womb, lol. But then things changed and we met. It was a little bit awkward at first but I still remember how we think about the same thing at the same time, and before I knew you're an INTP, I had this feeling that you're like me, something about you r...

((relapse)) Kalo diinget, gue nggak pernah nangisin ini cowo, atau biarin emosi gue luber. Mungkin itu alasannya gue susah move on, ya? Gue kebanyakan menekan emosi gue selama ini, memilih diam, menghilang. Tapi tanggal 27 Agustus 2026 kemarin, tau-tau gue menangis. Bukan yang histeris hingga sesak napas, tapi air matanya keluar begitu aja tanpa henti. Mungkin akan ada kambuh berikutnya. Tapi gue jadi semakin yakin lagi dengan kapasitas diri gue ketika mencintai. Kalo gue bisa mencintai orang lain sedalam itu, maka gue tau, gue juga berhak dicintai orang lain sedalam itu dan gue tau orang itu akan selalu mengusahakan gue sesederhana karena takut kehilangan gue.

OHANA

Haiiiii! This time, I'm too excited to tell you about my OHANA a.k.a Family. Seperti yang kalian udah baca di postingan pertama gue, Sisterhood Last Forever, kalian tahu kalo gue itu anak bontot, anak yang paling kecil, anak bungsu. Di post itu gue udah menceritakan tentang Mba Tita dan Mba Andes. Tapi... rasanya ngga lengkap kalo hanya mereka yang diceritakan. Left - Right: Mba Andes, Mama, Me, Mba Tita di suatu acara pada tahun 2011 Mama gue itu rambutnya selalu aja pendek. Dulu waktu gue masih 5th rambutnya masih panjang sihh, tapi sejak itu juga rambutnya jadi pendek :p Sedangkan Mba Tita dan Mba Andes itu dulunya ngga hijabers. Rambut mereka sebelum pake jilbab itu.... Badai. Angin topan. Wuss. Tsunami. Tapi sejak selesai kuliah dan udah beberapa bulan kerja, kira-kira pas gue kelas 2 SD mereka baru pake jilbab. Gue akan seperti mereka kalo udah sukses. Hehe Left - Right: Me, Mba Andes, Eyangti, Mba Tita, Mama di Lebaran tahun 2012 Di foto yang diata...

Kita memang nggak bisa menyelamatkan orang lain kalau orang itu nggak mau diselamatkan, kan? Sebesar apapun rasa cinta gue ke dia, gue nggak akan bisa memberikan itu semua dan dia nggak akan bisa menerimanya. Karena dia tidak mencintai dirinya sendiri terlebih dahulu. Gue bisa memeluk lukanya, apabila dia sudah berani memeluk lukanya sendiri. Gue bisa memberikannya cinta terbesar yang pernah dia rasakan, apabila dia sudah mampu mencintai dirinya sendiri.

Just when I about to send the message, a sudden realization come to me. Thus, I shall keep my pride. However, My heart can't lie. My brain can't lie. So, with the little prayer, I shall say... A year has passed. May you always find good things in life. Have a blast.
