Father, family Hero
What do you imagine when you hear the word hero? Maybe you want to imagine someone who defends the weak and oppressed and protects the people around him. The meaning of the title hero can be true even though basically the interpretation of the hero can be different for each person.
Heroes can be intended for anyone who we feel deserves to be called a hero. The title of hero itself can be meant broadly. The form of heroes is not just people who fight to protect their nation when they are at war or who wear special costumes with the main task of defending the truth.
What about someone who struggles to build and protect the integrity of the family? Can this person be called a hero? Parents are often referred to as a form of hero in the family.
The initial form that is often referred to as a family hero is usually a mother. Mother has had 9 months with a process and labor that was not easy accompanied by the pain she went through to give birth to us. But what about dad? The form of the father is often neglected because it is thought that the struggle he is going through is not as deep as the struggle of the mother. Meanwhile, the father is the backbone and protector in a household.
Then what makes you deserve to be called the hero of our lives? There are 2 things that underlie the:
Father are a great teacher and mentor
Based on the results of the survey that was tried, fathers like to teach their children the little things that mean such as fixing a flat tire, throwing a basketball, etc. The father is also less emotional than the mother and can lead by example and allocate time to teach various life skills.
Father are a great giver and protector
The survey results say that father are a form of hero in ycommitment to provide for family, moreover, he often risk a lot of things. Like many fathers who work 2 or more jobs to ensure that their family has adequate food and housing. Father also shared a sense of comfort and protection for his family.
These two things are the alibi of why father deserve to be called a hero and a form of guide and protector. This matter also fits with other research on the use of heroes. The research recognizes that there are 4 uses for heroes, namely for wisdom, moral modeling, self-improvement, and protection.
The arrival of the father is as meaningful as the arrival of the mother who gave birth to us. The father shares the position and education that the mother does not or does not often share with her child. From now on, let's say thank you and love to our father who has become a hero for the family.
A Friend with the name of Enthusiasm
In an activity, we can find various people. There are people who seem very excited. There are people who always seem to want to be involved. There are people who just look. Some move only when there is direction. And many others. We can see that their interest in these activities varies. Those involved, not necessarily interested.
What kind of person do we become in an organization or activity? Do we want to be people who are really involved? Do we just want to be the ones who seem involved? Or do we want to be completely uninvolved? To find out, we can see it from the level of enthusiasm we have.
Enthusiasm is an attitude where we do something without coercion, and even want to always do our best. The more we like something, the more enthusiastic we are about it. We can imagine that people who really like cooking will be diligent in experimenting by trying new recipes, asking a lot of questions during cooking demonstrations, and even willing to look for complementary ingredients that can perfect their cooking. On the other hand, people who think that cooking is mediocre, will only cook simple ones with easily available ingredients and with the same menu.
Things that describe enthusiasm usually arise from our body language. The eyes do not turn anywhere and the body leans forward. Enthusiastic people will focus their attention on one point. When a person is not enthusiastic, his attention will be easily distracted, even he deliberately avoids if something feels boring.
Enthusiastic people will ask for more, while unenthusiastic people will ask to stop because they are bored to death. An enthusiastic person will have more power for something he likes, while an unenthusiastic person only has half his strength because he is not willing to give it up for something that is considered useless.
**Can we be enthusiastic about everything?**
Generally, that enthusiasm will appear by itself once we are faced with something we like. When we feel very excited, it means we are feeling very enthusiastic. However, if we can't find it then we can look for something that attracts us from something. For example, we are not interested in a subject, but we are interested in the teacher who teaches. Although this is not as strong as natural enthusiasm, but at least we have a reason to hang in there.
Although an enthusiasm is ours, sometimes the spirit of that enthusiasm can arouse the enthusiasm of others. So feel free to point it out when you're really feeling excited.
Beautiful Time
What feelings come to your mind when you wake up in the morning? Are you happy? Or just annoyed? No matter how difficult life is, try to feel happy every day that comes, my friend.
The feelings we feel when we wake up in the morning will affect most of the activities we will do that day. These feelings will affect the spirit to move, and eventually affect our activities. These feelings will affect the way we think, and ultimately affect the resolution of our problems. We can change that feeling as the day goes on. However, most of the time we pass will still depend on the feeling in the morning.
Feelings of happiness are usually accompanied by enthusiasm, joy, and other positive things. Happiness makes us have more energy to move, to finally affect how we do our daily activities. Happiness makes us have a positive point of view in front of our eyes, until it finally affects how we make solutions to the problems that are in front of us.
Who doesn't love feeling happy? This feeling makes us feel good. Happy to welcome the day signifies that we are happy with the life that has been given to us. Of course we will not be willing to let go of this feeling. That is why we will try to continue to maintain that feeling of happiness until the day ends.
So what if we don't feel happy when we wake up in the morning? Weakness, irritation, anxiety is the opposite situation to the feeling of happiness earlier. No one wants to be unhappy actually, but worrying about going through the day makes that feeling will continue to revolve in every activity we do, so we will feel that bad mood colors the whole day. We are not excited to do something and the problems that come will feel even more severe.
Actually maintaining how we feel during the activity is our own decision. If we want to be happy, then act like a happy person. If we want to languish, then act like people languish. However, life is too beautiful to be miserable. So it's better to be happy and excited every day, every time. And to make that possible, we need to surrender to God. We certainly believe that everything that God decides is good, so why worry? Be happy!
