We Spent Time Together


For many days, I never hanging out with my daughter Ara, never walking around Court Street and doing sight seen. Winter season was very cold. I couldn't stand outside without wearing winter coat and feeling frozen. It was also hard for Ara to go outside when she felt uncomfortable with her big winter coat. That’s why I stayed at home and played with her in my comfy apartment to watch snowflake fallen from the sky. We felt warm.

Flour power cupcakes
Yesterday was a breezy sunny day. The wind was cold, but the sunlight kept me feel warm. I went to OU-mini farmer's market in OU Howard Park, near the green statue. There were a lot of local vendors. They sold many things such as bakery, cake, pretzel, jellies, and many more. At the first time I just planned to sight seen, until I met the lady who sold flour power cupcakes.  I bought her brownies. When I saw cupcake, I suddenly remembered that I ever read information about these cupcakes in B Magazine. It was made me curious to know how delicious these cupcakes. Because of that, I bought one beautiful cupcake.

The sun was bright. I felt warm enough to sight seen on Court Street. Since several days ago, I wanted to go to Family Dollar, one of department stores in Athens. Then I walked to Family Dollar through Court Street, my favorite spot in Athens. I looked around. There were food trucks that sold many delicious foods including Buritto, Ali Baba, and the new one, that I forget its name. Court Street was very crowd. In the afternoon, restaurants and food cafes were full of people. I tried to recognize some restaurants that I ever read in Athens News. I felt very happy when I remember those restaurants.

Family Dollar is located in E Carpenter Street. It's quit far from Court Street. I was looking for puzzles and some stuff. At that place, I got a nice headband while Ara yelled out loud. She refused to sit on her stroller, then I tried to play with her and to put the headband on her head, but she always threw it away. Furthermore, I grabbed a flip phone toy. It was works. She sat and played with the toy.

I had a chance to choose puzzles, armband, and some stuff when she bored and started to stand on her stroller. I untied her. She laughed very happy and walked around near by my side. I thought she wanted to stand near my position. She forgot her flip phone toy when she saw a bunching ball. She cried aloud as a sign that she wanted to touch the ball. I was so happy when I gave it to her. You know why? That’s because the ball is cheaper than the flip phone.

I succeed to put the headband on her head while she was playing a bunching ball. She brought the ball and went to cashier. I was so happy when I got all stuffs that i need. I thought I didn't have to buy a flip phone. Hehehe.. (*)

Aku Berprasangka Baik

Allah SWT berfirman : "Aku sesuai dengan prasangka hamba-Ku kepada diri-Ku. Aku bersamanya setiap kali ia mengingat-Ku. Jika ia mengingat - Ku ketika ia sendirian, maka Aku akan mengingatnya dalam kesendirian-Ku. Jika ia mengingat-Ku dalam kelompok, niscaya Aku mengingatnya dalam suatu kaum yang lebih baik daripada mereka. Jika ia mengingat - Ku dalam jarak sejengkal, maka aku mendekatinya dengan jarak satu hasta. Jika ia mendekat kepada-Ku dalam jarak satu hasta, Aku akan mendekat padanya dalam jaran satu depa. Apabila ia datang kepada - Ku dengan berjalan, Aku akan datang kepadanya dengan berlari-lari kecil. (HR Ibnu Majah ; hadist sahih).

Bertemu Kawan Lama

Aku bertemu kawan lama. Seseorang yang padanya aku pernah iri akan cara penulisannya. Kami pernah belajar sama-sama tentang bagaimana menulis itu. Ia akan beranjak pergi. Meninggalkan Makassar dan menjadi orang yang dituntut oleh dunia kerja.Seperti aku yang juga telah beranjak. Tapi kami berjanji untuk terus menulis. Sebuah upaya yang paling merdeka yang masih kami punya semagai manusia merdeka. Yang menjadi tameng kami melawan lupa.

Pertemuan

Adakah pertemuan begitu penting? Ketika seorang manusia bertemu dengan manusia lain maka aksi reaksi terjadi. Aku bertemu denganmu dan kamu bertemu denganku. Kita berdua kemudian berbagi tentang diri kita. Nama, pekerjaan, hobi, alamat, semacam sebuah curriculum vitae lisan. Kita berbagi banyak hal. Kesamaan dan juga perbedaan. Kita akan meminimalisir perbedaan. Menggali banyak kesamaan. Namun sesekali kita akan mengungkapkan perbedaan agar kita saling memahami dan mengerti bahwa perbedaan bukanlah sebuah halangan. Dari perbedaan itu pula kita akan saling berbagi pengetahuan. Mengisi kekosongan pengetahuan. Di akhir pertemuan kita akan berkata selamat tinggal atau mungkin berkata sampai ketemu lagi. Beberapa pertemuan hanya terjadi sekali. Beberapa manusia hanya terjalin pada satu interaksi. Aku kadang bingung yang bertemu meski sekali itu adalah sebuah yang perlu disyukuri atau tidak. Mungkin si A mengenal si B, entah lewat sarana apa. Namun si ...
