Between Sorrow, Emotion, and Grateful Joy

I am not someone who enjoys being pitied, nor do I like receiving assistance or charity. However, today, my emotions are deeply conflicted—caught between sorrow, emotion, and joy.
Madam Nadia from Baruga Antang brought me to tears throughout my journey home.

I felt frustrated because I dislike being pitied or given anything unsolicited. Yet, on the other hand, I truly needed it. The gift she gave me as a token of appreciation and a Hari Raya greeting profoundly touched my heart.

A person who owns an Alphard, a BMW, and another car I cannot recall, living in an extraordinary elite residential area—no wonder she is blessed with abundance. It turns out that she has a generous heart.

Thank you, Madam.

... KISAH MENGHARUKAN, KETULUSAN CINTA SEORANG SUAMI ...

28 Januari 2014 Bismillahir-Rahmaanir-Rahim ... Kebahagiaan akan disadari oleh manusia, ketika ia mulai pergi ... “Horee ayah beli mobil baru, hore ayah beli mobil baru, horee.....” teriak Dina, bocah kecil berusia lima tahun itu berjingkrak-jingkrak kegirangan, kemudian ia melompat-lompat dan berlarian mengitari sebuah mobil tipe baru berwarna silver men gkilap yang terparkir di carport depan rumah yang cukup luas itu. Sekali-kali ia memeluk mobil itu seperti memeluk boneka mainannya. Sementara sang istri duduk di depan kemudi mencoba menghidupkan dan mematikan mesin mobil itu sambil memperhatikan semua interior mobil dengan seksama, takut ada cacat sedikitpun barang yang ia terima, mumpung sang pengantar mobil masih ada di sini, menyerahkan tanda terima barang plus semua asesories mobil kepadanya. Ya, hari itu sang suami berhasil memenuhi keinginannya untuk memiliki mobil sendiri, memang bukan mobil mewah tapi cukup bergengsi untuk dimiliki oleh pasangan muda seperti d...

Review of the Movie "Upstream" (Chinese): The Journey of a Fighter

Image
Upstream is an extraordinary movie that touches the heart and inspires the soul. The story follows a man who is forced to become an online motorcycle taxi (ojol) driver after losing his job due to a layoff and struggling to find new employment because of his age. This film provides a profound depiction of the daily struggles faced by ojol drivers, especially in delivering food and packages. With a blend of touching, humorous, and empowering moments, Upstream invites us to understand the immense challenges these individuals endure. Although I have lived in Malaysia and Indonesia and am not entirely sure how the lives of food delivery drivers here are, this film opened my eyes to the universal hardships of their work. The ojol drivers portrayed in this story are not people chasing wealth. They work tirelessly to meet basic needs, such as paying monthly house installments to avoid losing their homes. Come rain or shine, dealing with rude customers, or facing the risk of accidents—these ar...
