Girl Power

136 years ago today, was born an Indonesian national hero, and the pioneer of Indonesians woman's rights, Raden Ajeng Kartini.

And every year today, we commemorate 'Hari Kartini' to honour her, to appreacite what she had done for the Indonesians woman.

Because of her, now we can see Indonesian woman works like man. There's no such thing as gender distinction.

"Dan siapakah yang lebih banyak berusaha memajukan kesejahteraan budi itu... Siapakah yang dapat membantu mempertinggi derajat manusia, ialah Wanita, Ibu... Karena haribaan Ibu, itulah manusia mendapatkan didikannya yang mula-mula sekali"

Being a women...

"I like being a woman, even in a man’s world. After all, men can’t wear dresses, but we can wear the pants."

— Whitney Houston

Between Science and Spirituality

Science is not only compatible with spirituality; it is a profound source of spirituality. When we recognize our place in an immensity of light‐years and in the passage of ages, when we grasp the intricacy, beauty, and subtlety of life, then that soaring feeling, that sense of elation and humility combined, is surely spiritual. So are our emotions in the presence of great art or music or literature, or acts of exemplary selfless courage such as those of Mohandas Gandhi or Martin Luther King, Jr. The notion that science and spirituality are somehow mutually exclusive does a disservice to both. — Carl Sagan
