being someone's answer is actually 'the answer'

sebulan kebelakang sampai hari ini, banyak banget 'kejutan-kejutan' yg gak keduga. ada pahit, manis, bingung, bikin deg-degan, bikin happy, sepi, nangis, banyaaaak deh. suasana hati dibikin gak stabil karna kondisi yg gak ketebak terjadi. pernah di satu kesempatan perjalan pulang dari rumah ke kosan, ada ibu-ibu paruh baya duduk disamping saya waktu naik bis. dia memulai pembicaraan kecil supaya suasana gak jadi awkward. saya cuma merespon sekenanya saja, sebatas menghargai, karna honestly, saat itu pikiran saya sedang bercabang-cabang memikirkan banyak hal. tapi ibu itu terus bercerita banyak hal, sampai hal2 pribadi, permasalahan pribadi yg pernah dia alami di masa lalunya yg pahit, yg membuat dia jadi tegar sampai sekarang, padahal saya tidak bertanya sama sekali tentang hal itu, tapi dia terus bercerita tanpa jeda. entahlah, mungkin dia butuh teman curhat, pikir saya seperti itu. dengan sabar saya mendengarkannya dan memberikan saran yang sewajarnya, karna saya pikir, ibu

But most people use technology in the wrong way (for example: Smartphone/Social Media). Checking your cell phone constantly and hearing for other’s people saying, yelling, commenting & discussing through the social media. You become busy on it without realizing that you have lost your productive times and killing your relationship with people in the front of you or with the people you love . Passing up opportunities to be socializing, join into the conversation, or have a small talk, joking, and supporting one each other with people in front of you be
