Think your life is hard?

Every time you complain about your day being too long.
The weather too hot or too cold.

Every time you feel thirsty and hungry.
Or you toss perfectly edible food simply because you're too full.

Every time you feel your job is too hard and salary too low.

Every time you think your mother is too clingy or your baby is too noisy.
And you want to get away from them.

Think of this lady and her baby.
I know I will.



































Bless your heart, dear lady. Allah will never forsake you and your child. I will say a prayer for you each time.

I do not breastfeed my babies, but I am a GOOD mother.

I don't care who I offend with this particular blog post but I just can't stand not saying something about this matter. Three first time mothers came to me seeking help and advise on breastfeeding. They saw the pictures I posted on my Facebook wall, pictures of my freezer full of frozen breast milk. This is only in one freezer. There's another one just as full. I told them first and foremost, that I have to thank my mother and my grandmother and my mother's grandmother for passing down the good genes of high level of prolactin hormone.

I also told them that the good genes that enable me to produce such high quantity of breast milk, were also responsible for making me infertile for the first 18 months of my marriage. As prolactin hormone is naturally

Covering Up

After few weeks of contemplation and discussion with very few people I trust about this matter, last night I finally put on a hijab for the first time ever. Please understand that I meant it to be a trial experience for me. I know very well how impulsive I can be sometimes and how it often landed me in hot water; making unwise decisions without knowing enough. So for something as important as putting on hijab, I wanted to be able to make a sane and wise personal decision so only myself would be held accountable for it. So, please do not expect me to start wearing hijab daily. I don't want to do it for other people, I want to do it for me. That, I believe, would allow the whole experience to be more meaningful. So right now I just want to write about the short experience of covering up for the very first time. I will skip the part where I spent nearly 30 minutes trying on different ways to wrap the pashmina around my head, trying on different styles and ways of wrapping to find t

Sirkel Op Laip

Percaya deh kami gak gagal move on. Ahok Djarot kalah, ya udah gapapa. Saya sih yakin bener Allah punya rencana lebih baik untuk semua. Iye, semuanye.. Termasuk Anda, saya, Ahok dan Djarot sendiri, dan terutama untuk Indonesia. Kami juga bukan sore losers yang ngambek jagoannye kalah. Karena bentuk bumi kami bulat, jd paham betul menang-kalah, naik-turun dan jatuh-bangun adalah siklus alami kehidupan. Namanya sirkel op laip... Coba gugel translet sendiri artinye apaan.. Tp jangan salah paham lagi, oh my god jd oh god my. Kami juga paham kok, seberapa pun uang yang kami pakai untuk beli rangkaian bunga untuk Ahok-Djarot sangat mungkin bisa dipakai untuk keperluan lain. Betul banget bisa untuk diberikan ke anak2 yatim piatu. Ya sama lah dana pembiayaan demo berseri juga harusnya bisa dialirkan ke anak2 yatim piatu. Coba dipake buat beli Sari Roti bisa habis berapa kontener ituuuu??? Jadi intinya apa? Intinya buat saya nih yeeee... Ya udah keleeeuuusss itu duit juga duit gue. Mau gue p
