Smile While You Can

One beautiful morning, I feel a bit guilty from a past I had. I suddenly missed the good old days and start reminiscing for some seconds. Then my phone beeps, a new message on bbm received from my dearest mom.

I got "jleb" feeling and suddenly said, this is true. Thanks mom, I'm smiling. This is the message my mom gave me that morning:

Cerita tentang seorang pria yang pergi ke suatu bar, di sana dia ngasih satu jokes untuk pertama kalinya dan orang-orang pada tertawa bergemuruh. Untuk kedua kalinya, dia menyampaikan jokes yang sama dan ternyata yang tertawa lagi hanya segelintir orang. Untuk ketiga kalinya, lagi-lagi ia menyampaikan jokes yang sama dan tidak ada lagi yang tertawa.

Kemudian pria itu berkata, “Bila kamu tidak bisa tertawa berulang kali pada lelucon yang sama, lantas mengapa kamu menangisi masalah yang sama berulang-ulang kali?”

The story of a man who goes to a bar, where he give us the jokes for the first time and the people roared in laughter. For the second time, he expressed the same jokes and it turns out that only a few people laugh again. For the third time, again he delivered the same jokes and nothing else is laughing.

Then the man said, “If you can not laugh repeatedly at the same joke, then why are you weeping for the same problem over and over again?”
