Pangeran Cilik - Sebuah Ulasan Singkat


Dulu pernah liat buku ini di perpus SMP, tapi saat itu belum tertarik. Sampai akhirnya beberapa waktu lalu orang yang aku kagumi bilang kalau buku ini berperan besar dalam memantik daya kreativitasnya dan membuat ia suka menulis dan membaca.

Turned out, it's a really great book! Menurutku ini bukan a child book sih, soalnya bener2 buat mikir. But it would be a good book for children too. Aku tamatin buku ini hanya dalam beberapa jam aja karena emang seseru itu. 

Beberapa poin penting yang perlu dihighlight dari buku ini:
1. Hal2 yang kamu anggap remeh dan tidak penting karena terlihat seperti itu bagimu, bisa jadi merupakan dunianya seseorang, bisa jadi merupakan segalanya bagi seseorang dan dunia seakan runtuh bila hal tersebut hilang.
2. "Mengadili diri sendiri lebih sulit daripada mengadili orang lain. Jika kamu berhasil berarti kamu betul-betul orang yang bijaksana."
3. Sebab bagi orang-orang sombong, semua orang lain adalah pengagumnya. Orang-orang sombong hanya mendengar pujian semata.
4. Siapa tahu! Bagi bungaku dan bagi gunung-gunungku ada gunanya aku memilikinya. Tetapi kau tidak ada gunanya bagi bintang-bintangmu..."

Bab favoritku adalah bab 21 dimana disitu dikisahkan betapa pertalian membuat sesuatu atau seseorang menjadi sangat berarti. Kamu bisa rela mengorbankan segalanya karena pertalian yang sebelumnya sudah dibuat dengan seseorang. Langkah kakinya, tawanya, suaranya bisa kamu bedakan dari ratusan langkah kaki, tawa dan suara yang pernah kamu temui. Hal-hal yang mengingatkanmu padanya menjadi hal yang kamu senangi. 

"Inilah rahasiaku. Sangat sederhana: hanya lewat hati kita melihat dengan baik. Yang terpenting tidak tampak di mata."
"Waktu yang kamu buang untuk mawarmu, itulah yang membuatnya begitu penting."

On Insecurity

It's been a long time since the last time I wrote in this blog. I'm pretty well but not quite great.  The topic that I'm gonna talk about here is something that I'm familiar with, which is insecurity.  If I have to be honest, I've been dealing with insecurity for the past few years. It was because I always feel left out compared to people my age in terms of achievements. The feeling struck me whenever I see them who have been achieving so many things in life while I still feel clueless about what I should do in life. Feeling insecure is like a disease because it can affect many aspects in your life. When you feel insecure, you think that you're not good enough and it holds you for doing things that you actually good at but you can't see it because you're already feel like you're not enough. I found this interesting perspective about insecurity from someone's tweet. He tweeted, "...insecurity is the worst thing you can unconsciously feed into...

No, it's not like I'm having a crush on you I'm not I don't have any feeling for you (you're not my type btw) It's just because I'm nervous You know that I often feel nervous when I'm with someone I don't really know That is what I feel when you're around It's not your fault And I'm sorry if I ever make you uncomfortable with what I did I'm just feeling nervous But I believe that As time goes by, this feeling will fade And I will get used to you being around  #randomnotes
