Wild Thought Two weeks ago

Wild Thought

Two weeks ago I stopped by Lapak Buku at gang stasiun. At first scanning and browsing the books, lumayan banyak yang baru. I love visiting this place, cause Si Mas yang jualan bukunya ramah. And he always suggest the good books for reading. Besides, he also give discounts for the prices. He only have books with Indonesian language, or books by foreign authors translated to Indonesian. But that's oke, the translated books also cheaper than the original books, eventough sometimes it's more excited reading the original ones.

Then Si Mas showed me a little book titled "Malaikat Kecil". It's a short novel wrote by Bening da Sylva & Aroyo, Published by an independent lable publisher at Depok. And he said that this book sempat kena cekal by some people cause of the controversial content.

I bought the book and read it at home. Looks like the author was so much influenced by Ayu Utami and "Dee"-Supernova. And they admit it in the book, that they were inspired by those contemporary novel author. Gaya penulisan dengan alur yang meloncat-loncat, ditambah tokoh2 yang berada pada dimensi-dimensi kehidupan yang berbeda.

In some parts of the book, the author put they opinion about God, religion, and life. Maybe this is what the other people said controversial. Cause maybe the author made their own interpretation of those things. And in the most cases, a different kind of perseption or interpretation is a very common thing.

So that's so unfair to do the boycott. Everyone has a freedom to use their brain. And everyone must have a freedom to speak out, to write, to show & express their idea.

No matter how extreme the tought would be, let the people do the judgement. Kita biarkan masyarakat kita bersikap dewasa dan belajar menerima perbedaan pendapat. Jangan lagi ada pelarangan-pelarangan bagi ide-ide nyeleneh. Let we all have dreams. Semua orang boleh punya mimpi-mimpi gila, pendapat-pendapat gak masuk akal, pada akhirnya yang terjadi adalah natural selection. Ide yang paling hebat dan diakui orang banyaklah yang tetap akan bertahan...

pembincangan tentang konsep ketuhanan bukanlah sesuatu yang baru, di malaysia sendiri topik ini seringkali diterima dengan sikap terbuka.

sesuatu yang konstan dalam perbincangan ini ialah: jawapan tidak pernah ditemukan,melainkan andaian-andaian logika.

mungkin kerana itu,pernah dikatakan batasan pemikiran manusia tidak mungkin mencakupi perkara-perkara yang ghaib.

dan keputusannya hingga kini kekal begitu,atau mungkin anda punya jawapan yang berbeza?

sememangnya manusia perlu bimbingan...
