This is my first post about humanity thing that I will often write on my blog. I know you were asking about 'why you just continue blogging now', 'why you ever stop blogging', or 'why you put an English post here' in fact no strangers read on my blog. I'm just practice my English, am I still able to speak English as fluent when I'm in senior high school? Maybe nope, because I loose time and people to practice my English. So I do apologize if I do some mistakes on this post. Just happy reading without asking, guys !
I do have experience when I always ignored by other kids. When I'm in elementary school, I was pretty smart in all subjects. Especially in English because my Mom was an English teacher. But in the other hand, I had difficulties to get along with other kids. I just use my time to study, and study. Because I was poor, and my parents pay my cost hardly, so I didn't want to waste my chance. I became an introvert and I didn't have much friends on those times.
But it changed after I met my best friend, Cyndi when I was Junior high school. She's fat but she had a confidence that make her look amazing on her way. She wasn't smart as I am, but she had a bunch of friends. She also had a boyfriend while I have no one looked at me. I desperately want to be like her, but I've no idea how to make conversation with her.
Then luckily, that opportunity that I wish for finally came. We met on the canteen and she greeted me first.
"Hey Radinna, would you please take a sit with us?"
I was shocked because I was invited to join with the most famous girls in our school. Cyndi was not the most pretty one, but she's the leader. She wasn't pretending that she was leading, but I just know that she was the queen bee.Otherwise, I was surprised because she knew my name!
If you just know John Dewey-an American most famous philosopher, he ever said that the deepest urge in human nature is ‘the desire to be important'. And Cyndi know how to make people important for sure. All people wanted to be important and valuable. But you cant just saying "oh Radinna, you're so much valuable to me!". That's not such easy. You don't do it only by verbal, you do it by giving your attention. You give your time, a chance to have a coffee break together, you remembered their name even their birthday. That's what Cyndi did to me.
Then after the conversation, we're getting closer and closer. Cyndi taught me what The school didn't taught, how to notice little people. How that kinda' attention of remembering their name can be impacted to other. To me.
