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.

    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. :)

Dam burst tragedy and three important notes

On Friday, March 27, 2009, Situ Gintung dam at Cirendeu, Tangerang, southeast of Jakarta, has broken-down and the water flooded like a small tsunami, washing away cars, houses and settlement area. Ninety nine people were killed and 102 others were missing (update the number of victims from www.kompas.com on Tuesday, March 31, 2009). My condolence for victims and their family. From all of that, there are three important notes that I want to share through this blog. First , it is indeed the embankment that broken-down was caused by excessive debit of water. Situ Gintung levee was originally built under Dutch colonial authorities era, only able to accommodate 1 million cubic of water, while the debit of water before the incident has reached 2 million cubic of water debit. There should be early warning for residents who live around the embankment when felt there was something that threatens the safety of citizens. In Situ Gintung actually already there, but not work well. Second , allotm...

Understanding political from human nature

When Soviet Union was strong, they were labeled with all negative things that is related to socialism (stigmatized). Perhaps because the "eastern" European power were seen as a threat to western domination. No political attack at all on China at that time because China still weak, poor, called as bicycle country, so not considered as a threat. But when China began to advance rapidly, moreover approaching USA, they began to be perceived as a threat to western domination. The revival of the "eastern" world in Asia which was firstly represented by Japan, then South Korea, was not considered as a threat because both of them willing to follow western styles and patterns. Unlike China who want to stand out with their own distinctive style and patterns. This was considered as a threat to western domination. The game of thrones . Yes, that is true. History has recorded abundant stories of power struggles that ended in blood. Just look at it. No intense competition between t...
