Si Tenggang’s Homecoming

A major question? Is keeping your mouth shut up is the best way to deal with problems. And should you hide your worry or share it somebody else. Someone who you really trust or should it be everyone?

As for myself, I am a kind of a person who loves to tell everyone. I share my up and down with friends, thru the net and so on. But that fact never deny how I am also being secretive sometimes. And on that point of issue, regardless how close you are to me, I may simply keep quiet about the matters.

This is the way I see on the other people. I hardly ask if someone get sick (in the case of he/she appears visibly healthy), not because I do not care. But it’s because I am afraid that my question might make him/her hating me for asking too much. Even the word ‘too much’ in contrast to ‘not enough of caring’ is depending on the person who ask. Simply by referring to my own experience, I really appreciate of some people when they care of me when I’m sick. It’s not necessarily in the way of sending ‘good luck’ sms, because I prefer if they just don’t mention of the illness but notice my existence.

Some people ask for the others to take care of them by showing love and giving a shoulder to lay on. Some other people want the other
s to just remain silent as a supportive act. The key of caring is not the typical action we always think. It’s something suit the attitude of the person we care.

A friend of mine asked me. Would you still care about the person you love if he/she is sick? Remembering what my parents had done to me, I answer, it doesn’t matter, in happiness or sadness, I will always care about the person I love, InsyaAllah. But maybe sometimes, I remain silent…

[P.S: Don't treat what I type before as a global issue (means apply to every case)]
