Be Wise by Getting Married

Ok. This is gonna be the last time for me talking about my friends' wedding.

Double strike.

Setelah gw shock berat kemaren mendengar berita bahwa adik kelas gw married, hari ini gw di-expose dengan berita temen gw (seangkatan), dua2nya, bakal merit hari Minggu ini.
Barusan gw kepo ngecek Facebook dan ngeliat foto2 prewedz mereka.

...

Oke. I think I should accept the fact that I'm getting old.

Getting old because everyone around me is suddenly getting married.

...

Nope. Wrong hypothesis. I think I should accept the fact of human's life-cycle.

Born-baby-child-teenager-youth-adult-married-old-die.

Don't get me wrong. I'm not saying that marriage is wrong. I'm not saying that by getting married in my age is not right either.

In fact, I am really happy for the couples. I'm also getting excited regardless of my shock and exaggerated reactions.

I guess I just need to accept the reality of life.

While I'm planning ahead of something adventurous for my own life next year, so are the other people (by stepping into the next level of life).

While I'm thinking hard of what should I do to live this life at the fullest, so are the other people (by taking greater risk and commitment within this life).

While I'm thinking hard to do something meaningful in this life, so are the other people (by taking chance to create a new family on their own).

In fact, I'm not different than the others.

Perhaps, at this stage of life, I'm just walking on a different path of life.

Nevertheless, to be honest, I was a bit emotional (aka: terharu) when I looked at their pre-wedding photos. I just never expected that they will take this next stage of life sooner. I guess, what my friend said about our next reunion will come true.

'Next time we're having a reunion, there should have been someone bring along their babies' ('Till we meet again, friends. We'll see what it will be).

Anyway, I have some nice quotes today. In fact, this comes from my junior schoolmate that has just become a wifey today :)

“No one saves us but ourselves. No one can and no one may. We ourselves must walk the path.” ~ Buddha
There's no such thing as the perfect guy.
And there's no such thing as the perfect girl.
But only a less than perfect guy
And a less than perfect girl can make...
A perfect love.
