JEDA

Suatu ketika telinga butuh jeda dari bising dunia, dari suara-suara tanpa nada dan kata yang kehilangan makna. Layaknya malam, yang sejenak sembunyi dari hiruk pikuk siang, terik yang menyengat.  Berhentilah bersuara, berteriak, memaki, mengeluh, menghakimi, agar tenang sekejap dan angin memanjakan telinga.  Dan dunia tidak harus selalu dihiasi oleh suara sumbangmu. Maka berhentilah berbicara, untuk mendengarkan dunia. 

Notes from The Crown

I remember spending most time with my best friend, Netflix, during me time. I finished the 5 seasons of The Crown in 2022. No, I'm not gonna put any review on the series, though I might say Season 4 is my favorite so far for the appearance of former Prime Minister Margaret Thatcher. Gillian Anderson was awesome picturing the character. 

Here, I just wanna share a few quotes from The Crown. 

"That's the thing about unhappiness. All it takes is for something worse to come along and you realize it was actually happiness after all."  S2:E8 - Queen Elizabeth II. 

"We can't be everything to everyone and still be true to ourselves." S3:E3 - PM Harold Wilson. 

"But the Crown always finds its way to the right head." S3:E8 - Duke of Windsor. 

"The Crown is not a static thing resting forever on one head. It is moving. Alive. Divine. The changing face of changing times.  And if, God willing, it has been ordained that I should wear it then I shall do so on my own terms and hopefully, make you proud." S3:E8 - Prince of Wales (now King Charles). 

"We cannot let the values of the past distract us from the realities of the present." S4:E8 - PM Margaret Thatcher. 

"When you realize there's no point in trying anymore, and it's easier to just let the current take you away." S4:E9 - Princess Anne. 

"The majority of marriages survive because the majority of people aren't fantasists. They are realists and accept the imperfect reality of being human." S4:E9 - Princess Anne.
