guess how much I love you

As I remember, my parents never read me a Disney princess story book. My dad tell me a story about legend story, such as Roro Jongrang, Tangkuban Prau, Sangkuriang, Timun Mas, or story about prophet. Well I am a listener, I love when people tell me story, so I enjoyed those stories.

Long story short, my first job as a professional is being Librarian, kindergarten librarian to be specific. I never get attention to kids book before until that time. Of course kids book tell us a story about kindness, braveness, honesty, etc. But I found one book that look old and warm, I felt the warmness, strange I know.

This book...
The book had a lot of words than others toddler's book.
I read page by page. And it's warm my heart at the end.

The story about innocent son and his Dad.
How he loves his Dad so much, and his Dad loves him so much more. The way his Dad express his feelings make my heart so warm full. Maybe, it's just a maybe, because I never see parents express their feelings outright like him. Not even my parents. After I finish that book, I make a word to myself and my future family, I won't be like my parents. I will be more than them. I'll show off my loves with gestures and words.

I remember the dialogue from that book, correct me if I'm wrong,
"I love you to the moon, Dad" and the little hare is fall asleep.
"I love you to the moon and back, son" said his Dad.

That's when I become Sam McBratney's books fans.

chairil is my first love

I love books. I love reading books. It started because of my father. He share any new book he bought with me.  He obsessed with poem to be exact.

I just read it out loud because he teach so :) And I did excatly like he taught me. And he more become so excited when I told him, "Every student in the class should make appareance for Bahasa Indonesia subject". And he think I should go with Chairil's poet, titled "Diponegoro". And yup, I did it, with out loud and a little movement to make it hyperbole. And since that Chairil become my first love. I like the way he tell his feeling. Rough and cool but romantic. I can feel the emotion in his poet. The one I love, titled "Sia-Sia" I can feel the hesite and regret on it.

My Struggle

Are we agree about we can't choose our color when were born? We can't choose our carrier illness either. In my case, I have one. It's not dangerous (fortunately) but it's make me unconfident. I am vitiligo survivor. It's first appear when I'm in elementary, on my knee. I thought it's kind of ringworm. I told my parents, they're just like common Asian parents, "It's okay, it will gone by tomorrow". And it's not fone, and they're just chill. Until the vitiligo appear on my chest when I was 13 maybe. It's bigger than the previous spot. Everybody notice, and start asking. I just said "I don't know". I told my parents and they're kind of worries. I forgot what's the treatment back then. Until it's appear on my right side neck my father took an action, traditional ways--so common Asian parent. My father brought some firewoods, he burn it--no it's not the coal for the treatment, it's the ki...
