In the film Avatar, directed by James Cameron, there is a sentence that I can't forget, maybe our civilization can't forget it either. "Humans are born twice, their second birth is when they are accepted into society forever." Globalization Globalization spread like lightning with the support of the internet. A few seconds later, the news from Chicago was heard in Cicaheum, a small region in Indonesia. Globalization as an intention to develop markets, is now used as a cause of progress throughout the earth. For the American and European explorers themselves, perhaps initially this rapid change also caused an earthquake. That's why there is the term industrial revolution. Change is uncomfortable for anyone, but it is inevitable. Sometimes it develops from negative intentions and is then assimilated to form positive things. Or even starting from positive actions, the next time we stumble into a mire of negativity. Whether you realize it or not, there is a great forc

Have you ever heard that one day humanity will have one world leader? Of course not a forced leader. We already know how painful it is when a race imposes its beliefs, feels the best or believes itself to be the descendant of a god. World Wars I and II gave rise to strong suggestions about this arrogance to wage war. Jayabaya's prediction In Indonesia there is a prophecy which is famous as the Jayabaya prophecy. Pretty cool, no less interesting than Nostradamus and Baba Vanga. It is possible that every country also has a figure like Jayabaya. In general, Jayabaya's prediction tells about the existence of a fair queen. The queen was so fair that someone said that tigers and deer would also be able to live side by side. This sounds like a Cinderella story. Even though the stories are told in different ways, the stories still worship Cinderella as a patient and kind-hearted princess. There can be no smoke if there is no fire, that's the proverb. A good person will be widely re

If humans can create beautiful works of art, in theory humans should also easily create the art of happiness. Happy people are not supernatural, we can see it. But strangely, the art of happiness is like an antique that must be sought after. We believe there are many theories to achieve happiness, that's why some call it the art of happiness. Art is a skill and an expert is not just born. A process of struggle definitely accompanies it so becoming an expert is not easy.   Happiness Doesn't Require Publication The meaning of happiness itself may be a matter of debate, at least among people who pretend to be happy. Then there is the term true happiness. Happiness is like a service, there is economy class and executive class. However, the definition of happiness is clear. According to the Big Indonesian Dictionary, happiness is a state of mind or feeling of pleasure, peace of life physically and mentally. Even in the doctrines of some religious leaders, happiness often has the con

Before there were other extracurricular activities, Scouting in Indonesia was a favorite activity for Indonesian teenagers. As other activities emerged in schools, scouting activities in Indonesia receded. Many teenagers choose extracurricular activities other than scouting. Some even moved to other activities. Now it seems that all other extracurricular activities are also experiencing the same thing in looking for members. Even though this is felt by extracurricular activists and coaches, they have not taken steps to improve the situation. They are busy with schedules at school which drain time, both for students and teachers who usually guide extracurricular activities. Scout Activities are Stiff and Boring The curriculum implemented in Indonesia is now called the independent curriculum. As the name suggests, this curriculum aims to provide freedom for educators to create quality learning that suits students' needs and learning environment. In reality, this curriculum must under

Childhood in Bandung-Indonesia around the 1980s was typical. It could be said that the atmosphere of fear cultivated by the colonialists is still felt. Even though decades have passed. Before there was social media, there were flyers that dared to determine the date of the end of the world. Out of nowhere, a friend suddenly showed it with a frightened face, because the leaflet was in the name of the holder of the Kaaba key. I was fooled too, so I diligently recited the Koran and queued with my friends and apologized to the Koran teacher. The Koran teacher just smiled and emphasized that no one knows when the apocalypse will happen. The leaflet was also accompanied by a threat to distribute 10 copies of it so that they would not suffer the same fate as several world leaders who were punished by their people. The hoax via this leaflet is quite insightful, for example that Zulfikar Ali Bhutto was hanged because he did not distribute the leaflet. Apocalypse Meaning The 2012 film is also wi
