Mother and Child - An Essay

Essay about mother and child

WHEN YOU WERE A KID
She feed you, but in return to her... you spew out your food and dropped the plate.
She bathes and cleanse your body, but in return to her... you always bed-wetting.
She guide you how to walk, but in return to her... you run away when she call you.
She teach you A-B-C-1-2-3, but in return to her... you scribbling the wall.
She buy beautiful clothes for your, but in return to her... you soiled her clothes.
She accompany you go to kindergarten, but in return to her... you shouted NO.. NO..!
She paid your study, but in return to her... you often absent.
She forbid you to watch TV show for adult, but in return to her... you wait until she go out and quietly turn on the TV.

WHEN YOU WERE A TEENAGER
She paid your sweet seventeen party, but in return to her... you continue the party until daybreak.
She drive you go to school but... you feel shy when the car stop in front of school gate.
She asked when you came late at night, but in return to her... you said "Oh Mommy, I'm grown-up now, don't worry".
When you married, she give full support, but in return to her... after married you rarely visit her.
When she has been old and need care... you send her to the nursing home because of troublesome.

And until ONE DAY... God call her and she gone calmly. I am sure at one time you will remember all beautiful memory when she be with you and the matters that you have not fulfilled to her. Will you crying? Oh, I said you're LATE !!! because your mother cannot sense your love any more, FOREVER !!!
"Don't cry, my child", she said from heaven.

    "Wisdom is found in the old, and discretion comes with great age..."
    -The Old Testament.

    Children also grow up and become mothers and fathers. The wisdom that you wish for them has to come to them with their own experiences. Like it has for you.

  9. I see that happen all too often. That's why I see and talk to my mother every day. I know what all she gave up for me. I only hope my children also know the same.

    Interesting you have a Sweet Seventeen party there. Here in the States, it's a Sweet Sixteen. :)

    Mother is the best person we ever had in our life. No matter what we do, no matter what we have done to her..She always love us more than her own life. This is very touching post.

Kartini's Day and Indonesian women

Raden Ajeng Kartini On April 21 each year the Indonesian nation commemorate Kartini's Day . Actually Kartini's Day is similar to Mother's Day (celebrated in Indonesia on December 22) or International Women's Day. Perhaps to understand Mother's Day you need to understand a person in your life called Mother, and for the International Women's Day and Kartini's Day perhaps you need to understand the person in your life called wife or sister. If you are underestimating women then firstly you need to look at your mother . Am I wrong? In short: That is all for women. In wider meaning: That is how these special Day to further raise the awareness of Indonesian society or even the world - especially the women themselves - about women rights, their struggle for equality, and their important role in various spheres of life. This is also an occasion for Indonesian women to review how far their struggle get acknowledgment especially from the point of view of Indonesian tr...

Islamic law - whether it is about a choice

Before you continues to read this post, please read the brief history of Aceh , until Tsunami disaster happened and finally get a special autonomy right from Indonesian central government. For years the Indonesian military has struggle to fight against what we call Gerakan Aceh Merdeka / GAM (English: Free Aceh Movement) who want to establish an Islamic state and impose Sharia law in Aceh province. This proves that Indonesia do not wanting Islamic state system because Indonesia is a country based on the laws (national law), democratic, consist of various ethnic groups, has 6 official religion, with national motto: Unity in diversity, not an Islamic state that implement Sharia law.

I say thousands of victims as a side effect of war, not just a matter of the position of a woman as reported by Jakarta Globe with the title " Women Unfit to Lead,...

Agentic Browsing and Copyright Infringement Issues in AI Training

A few days ago, just for fun, I checked this blog's page load speed on Google Page Speed Insights . I was intrigued by a new metric called Agentic Browsing (AI-agent-based browsing). This metric measures how user-friendly a website is for an AI agent to read and navigate. It can even autonomously click, fill out forms, and make purchases on behalf of the user. But Agentic Browsing is still under development and subject to change. In the past, search engines like Google, Bing, or Yandex only presented search results. It took time to open dozens or even hundreds of websites one by one to find the most relevant answers. A hassle, right? In the era of AI-powered personal assistants, AI agents summarize information and directly answer user's questions. They can do this because AI models are trained on vast amounts of data collected from across the web . I prefer to call it secretly scraping/collecting data without the copyright holder's permission. This raises the question: Ar...
