Anak-anak kebanggaan

Saya engga tahu kenapa saya berani menyempatkan waktu untuk menulis ini padahal tugas masih terbengkalai. Mungkin karena saya tidak sabar untuk menunjukan pada dunia tentang anak-anak yang saya sayangi dan saya banggakan. (Udah kaya penggalan pidato guru saja) 

Saya adalah tipe orang yang sangat percaya bahwa siapapun bisa jadi pelajaran buat saya termasuk anak-anak yang luar biasa ini. :D
Dunia anak adalah dunia favorit saya. Pernah suatu kali teman-teman saya pun menuliskan bahwa saya pantas menjadi seorang guru TK. :D
Awalnya saya tertarik untuk menjadi volunteer di taman baca di sebuah desa. Dari situlah saya mulai merasakan candu yang teramat dengan mereka. 

Saya berhenti karena jadwal yang tidak mendukung dan jarak yang jauh dari tempat tinggal saya. Namun kegemaran saya tidak berhenti begitu saja. Saya kembali menjadi volunteer tapi di tempat project IIWC untuk tempat prostitusi. Wah beda sekali suasana disana dengan taman baca. Di taman baca biasa ngajar ngaji nah di IIWC saya main permainan edukasi. Semuanya membuat saya belajar. 

Ini dibawah itu fatir dan anak lucu menggemaskan yang saya lupa namanya. hehehe

Time speed up. Now, saya sudah punya 5 murid yang saya ajar privat. Bedanya di taman baca sama privat itu kalau privat kita jadi lebih mengenal karakteristik mereka. Rasanya kaya ngemong adek sendiri. hihihi

Those boys are Ricky and Ricko. Si kembar yang bikin mati gaya kalau saya ngajar mereka. Seringkali apa yang saya ucapkan tidak mereka dengarkan bahkan selalu berantem karena alasan pinjem pensil atau saling tuduh mencontek. :D
Ricky is smart and Ricko is polite. Biarpun kembar mereka beda sifat sekali. Mereka manja dan saya suka. Mungkin karena saya anak bungsu yang selalu ingin punya adek jadi mereka saya anggap adek sendiri.

Next, Time for the girls. 

Desi dan Rani si anak dokter. Mereka luar biasa dalam belajar. Saya aja capek liat mereka belajar dari bimbel sana sini untuk persiapan UN mereka. Yang satu kelas 6 SD yang satu kelas 3 SMP. Mereka juga les musik. Takjub sama orang tua mereka yaitu Ibu farida yang mengutamakan pendidikan anaknya sekali. 

Saya doakan kalian sukses! 

Ada lagi si secret Nabila. Saya belum sempat berfoto dengannya atau mengambil fotonya karena memang belum terlalu dekat. Dia sangat introvert tapi kuat. Kenapa saya mengatakan kuat karena saya takjub pada anak ini yang ditinggal ibunya pergi ke luar negeri. Rasanya susah sekali mendekati dia sampai-sampai dia pernah cerita kalau dari TK sampai sekarang dia selalu duduk sendirian karena tidak ada teman yang mau duduk dengannya. Waktu itu saya pernah berpikir untuk ke sekolahnya supaya memberitahu gurunya tentang sifat nabila yang akan berpengaruh karena masalah tersebut. Tapi lagi-lagi saya terkendala oleh waktu dan jadwal yang tidak menentu. Semoga Allah selalu melindunginya dan tetap menjadi anak manis yang membanggakan orang tua. :)

Saya juga pernah disuruh mengajar anak yang membuat saya sering beristighfar karena ulahnya. Dia membuat saya belajar sekali bagaimana membuat materi yang disampaikan itu menarik. Di awal jam belajar dia selalu menceritakan pacar khayalannya dan betul saja saya coba dengarkan dan selalu bilang kalau dia tidak mau belajar si cowo tidak akan mau sama dia. hahahah

But, Truly They are my inspiration.

Motivasi untuk Masalah

Pembaca yang dirahmati Allah,

Dalam kesempatan ini saya ingin menggaris besarkan apa sebenarnya hikmah dibalik masalah. Setiap manusia entah kaya maupun miskin, pintar maupun kurang pintar, cantik maupun kurang cantik, normal maupun memiliki kelebihan bukan di fisik pasti selalu punya masalah.  

Masalahnya bagaimana diri kita menghadapi masalah tersebut. Seringkali saya lihat dalam postingan status teman-teman facebook saya mengeluh dengan masalahnya yang menurut saya jauh lebih banyak orang-orang yang mempunyai masalah lebih besar dari mereka. Anehnya, justru orang-orang dengan masalah besar jarang sekali mengungkapkan masalahnya bahkan mungkin tidak pernah.

Masalah adalah sesuatu yang seiring dengan kehidupan seseorang. Yakni semakin besar orang tersebut semakin pula besar masalah yang ia harus hadapi.

Namun Hakekat hidup adalah bukan menunggu badai berhenti tetapi bagaimana kita bisa menari dalam derasnya hujan.

Masalah yang saya hadapi mungkin tidak sebesar masalah para pembaca, tetapi dengan cara inilah saya ingin berbagi bagaimana makna sebenarnya yang Tuhan siratkan dalam setiap masalah kita. (Kalau kita mau menelusurinya)

Jangan katakan pada Tuhan bahwa kita punya masalah besar, tetapi katakan pada masalah bahwa kita punya Tuhan yang Maha besar.

Dalam menghadapi masalah kita juga perlu membesarkan hati untuk tidak menyalahkan orang lain karena bagaimanapun juga semua kesalahan selalu datang dari diri sendiri. Tindakan menyalahkan orang lain hanya akan menempatkan kita pada posisi tidak mau mengakui kesalahan dan melimpahkan pada orang yang tak bersalah.

Jika seseorang menyalahkan kamu atas kesalahan yang sebenarnya ia buat maka kamu punya senjata ini untuk tetap menguatkan diri.

Memaafkan orang yang telah menyakitimu adalah hadiah yang kamu berikan kepada mereka,

Melupakan kesalahan orang yang telah menyakitimu adalah hadiah yang kamu berikan pada diri sendiri.

Masalah ada karena 2 faktor :

Pertama, kita bertindak tanpa berpikir

Kedua, kita terus berpikir tanpa bertindak

Tetapi yang saya suka dari masalah ini adalah ia bagaikan mesin cuci dan kita adalah bajunya. Kenapa ?

Mesin cuci membuat kita berputar, twist, sampai pontang-panting  di dalamnya, tetapi pada akhirnya kita akan keluar dengan lebih bersih, berwarna, dan lebih baik dari sebelumnya.

Lalu ingat bahwa ketika kita mendapatkan masalah, jangan pernah menceritakan pada orang yang sama sekali tidak mengenalmu dengan baik.

Sebab 80% orang tidak peduli kamu punya masalah, dan 20% lainnya senang kamu mendapatkannya.

Percayalah :

Gembok diciptakan dengan kunci untuk membukannya, seperti halnya Tuhan memberikanmu masalah dengan kemudahan untuk menyelesaikannya.

Because life is a journey with problems to solve,

Lessons to learn, but most of all

Experiences to enjoy

 (Terinspirasi dari surat Al-insyirah )

Semoga Bermanfaat, J
