JUST ACCEPT AND BE THANKFUL FOR IT. #LEARNFROMREPLY1988

“Life is like a box of chocolates, you’ll never know what you’re gonna get. You may get a bitter chocolate and there’s nothing else you can do. That is the fate that I’ve chosen. There are no regrets, no tears and there is no need for a heartbreak.” -Jung Hwan-

That quote i got it  from Reply 1988. Jadi ceritanya aku telat banget baru nonton reply 1988. And Reply 1988 is one of my favorite dramas i’ve watched so far. Disini aku ngga mau ngomongin tentang Reply 1988 nya dan ngga mau review karena udah banyak banget yang review juga jadi kalian bisa liat blog lain yang review.

In here, i want to focus on the message on it. Especially the quote that i attached above.

I’ve ever written a quote from forrest gump too in my second post which is life is a box of chocolate and you’ll never know what you’re gonna get. And reply 1988 took one of forrest gump quotes on it.

Hidup itu seperti sebuah kotak coklat, kamu ngga pernah tau apa yang kamu dapatkan. Life is full of surprise, isn’t it? Kamu mungkin dapet coklat pait, dan ngga ada yang bisa kamu lakukan. Itu adalah takdir yang kamu pilih. Ngga ada penyesalan, air mata, dan ngga perlu ada rasa sakit hati.

Manusia boleh berencana, tapi Tuhanlah yang menentukan.

People these days seem to achieve and work really hard to chase their dreams. It’s such a happiness when they get their dreams. But when they don’t, how is it?
I mean, when they fail, some of them will be so desperate. And many cases that they suicide.

When you are accepted in university that initially you don’t want to study in there, and look your friends that they easily can be accepted in university that you’re craving since you were 10th grade.. it is so painful right? Remembering that you think better than them. So why can’t you? You feel it’s so unfair right?

When you have been working pretty hard to save money and being very economically so that you can buy something or go somewhere.. or you work part-timely very hard so you can earn money by yourself and not ask your mother anymore.. while other people can easily get much money from their parents, and can go wherever they want every weekend and buy something easily, they can go for holiday twice every year or maybe once every month, wah... their life must be so perfect right, you think..

The biggest mistake of our social life today is that kita selalu melihat ke atas, and that’s why we can never easily be thankful.

I once asked to my mother “Bu kok ngga nyuruh aku si ikut tes sbm , kok ngga nyuruh aku ikut tes stan lagi?”

My mother answered “udah kamu diundip aja, toh kamu juga udah ketrima di jurusan yang bagus mbak, jalanin aja, berikan yang terbaik, fokus aja sama apa yang kamu jalani sekarang mbak.. gausah liat yang lebih tinggi.. toh yang terlihat lebih bagus tidak selalu bagus, banyak anak yang ngga bisa kuliah kayak kamu, bersyukur”

I always remember that. My tears are falling down right now. Since that, aku sadar, kok aku ngga ada rasa bersyukurnya toh aku juga enjoy disini.. kenapa harus craving yang lain?

My mother are always like that. She is not so ambitious. She never thinks of people thoughts. She always accept everything wholeheartedly and never complains.

Writing this article, i’m also inspired by kak gita blog yang mana tulisannya di be like a forest gump.

“cukup aja kita tau apa tujuan kita, apa yang kita mau apa yang kita lakukan, supaya kita selalu punya satu alasan kenapa kita harus tetap jalan ke depan. Just like what forrest gump said, forrest figured everything out because he just keep going.. don’t stop. Keep going”

Seperti yang junghwan bilang di reply 1988, inilah takdir yang kita pilih, ga perlu ada penyesalan. Bersyukurlah atas apa yang kamu dapat.

“Time doesn’t pass by just for us, it passes by for everyone. Stop complaining, just accept it and go along with it” -Il Hwa-

“Although it was a half-basement house, I received so much love and if I’m ever reborn, I want to be reborn as your daughter” -Bo Ra

Our lives aren’t always happened as we wish, we sometimes go ups and sometimes go downs. Sometimes, we have to rest our heart, our mind, our body. Being ambitious is good, but gimana kalo Tuhan udah menakdirkannya? We just have to accept it, be patient.

Open your heart and open your mind, try to accept the whole things that happens in life. Melihat keatas untuk dijadikan motivasi agar jadi yang lebih baik, dan melihat kebawah untuk selalu bersyukur about what you have.


Bersyukurlah, accept it wholeheartedly, people have their own fates, people have their own ways, just be you. We have to accept anything without complain. Just accept and be thankful for it.
