Moscow Dulu, masih sempet pakai sepatu dengan hak 5 cm waktu kerja kantoran. Ya karena harus keliatan formal aja sih, meskipun nggak ada yang ngelarang juga kalau mau sepatu sneakers pun. Toh juga waktu kerja sepatu dilepas dan pakai sendal jepit. Tapi itu sudah lama sekali. Setelahnya, bertahun-tahun hanya punya 1 sepatu sneakers dan 1 sandal. Sendal jepit punya lah ya, kan hidup di Bali. Salah satu esensial itu. Sebenernya alesannya sederhana, bukan karena nggak mau punya sepatu lebih dari satu tapi lebih ke males harus nyocokin sepatu lagi ke kaki yang belum tentu enak dipakainya. Sepatu itu adalah hal esensial yang buat gw nggak apa mahal yang penting nyaman. Karena taruhannya di pijakan, dan itu bisa berdampak ke banyak hal kalau salah pilih sepatu. Jalan kaki adalah bagian besar dari hidup gw, jadi punya sepatu nyaman adalah hal yang tidak bisa dinego. Nah, meskipun gw beberapa kali pernah jalan-jalan saat musim dingin, Moskow ini agak beda.

In this extraordinary life, I would be a teacher still.
Helping people to understand even some little things to make them feel worthy and understand themselves better. It seems that teaching has become a calling for me. Not about teaching such specific subject like mathematics or so, but more like... I like to give new perspectives for people, and having them saying "Oh.... I see..." is satisfying for me. Of course, by teaching I can learn so many new perspectives from different people too. It's like the more I teach the more I learn, and that is so true.
Maybe more like a guide. I like giving guidance to people who needs it. No, I don't like giving unsolicited guiding. I like to guide people who wants to be guided.
I'd teach them how to love, love themselves first. Yea sure when we are talking about things, they would say "do useful things like engineering, plumbing, this and that" but they tend to forget that we need some balance in life. Not saying that this one is much more important, but having technical and soft things you can't see is not bad.
I've read somewhere that I am obsessed with love. Now that I think about it, maybe that's true. Something like compassion is fulfilling my soul. I learned about compassion from many people in my life, I see it as a compass for life. And if your love and compassion fuelling your soul, I am sure the world will be in a better place.
People will think about saving each other, people will love each other and with love you won't do any unnecessary harm especially toward earth.
Look at people around you, society around you, earth that you are living on, which one you see more? The love and growth or the hate and destructive pattern?
There's a dialog I love in my fav movie, Interstellar, said by Dr.Brand;
"Love isn't something we invented. It is observable powerful, maybe it means something more. Something we can't yet understand. Maybe it's some evidence, some artifact of a higher dimension that we can't consciously perceive. I am drawn across the universe to someone I haven't seen in a decade who I know is probably dead. Love is the one thing we're capable of perceiving that transcends dimensions of time and space. Maybe we should trust that even if we cant understand it yet."
So if money was not the problem, what would you do in life?
