Jomblang Cave Jogjakarta

Yesterday I came across a YouTube video called Analog Trip, this video is about 6 K-pop idols went on a trip to Indonesia for holiday. My older sister was the one who recommend me to watch it a few months ago.

The whole 12 series of their video were very good, but there are two episodes that left huge impression to me. In this video they were visiting Goa Jomblang  or Jomblang Cave. This cave located in Gunung Kidul the special region of Indonesia Yogyakarta. This vertical cave is a thousand years sinkhole with enormous 50 meter wide mouth of cave. This place also a conservation for tropical ancient plants managed by local people. If lucky, people could enjoy the 'Heaven Light', the 90 meter magnificent light that piercing through the cave

To go in and out of the cave people have to work together. It is a 💯 percent manual labor tourist spot. A group of experts helps tourist to go in by the rope, and pull the tourist out using a bunch of local people muscles. The tourists have to put their trust to a group of strangers, and their life literally hanging by the rope provided by the expert.

To go to the final destination, a person has to walk a long way through the darkness on the muddy and slippery ground. Surprisingly, people who travel in a group will help each other automatically without being asked. People are tend to work well together and help each other when they face the same difficulties. And at the end of destination all the hardworks were paid off. It doesn't matter whether the heaven lights would shine or not, a person already has conquered many obstacles to reach the end and it is a very remarkable achievement.

Hardship are needed in life, so people would fathom satisfaction. There won't be light without darkness, there won't be heat without cold. Cold is just an event where the heat is absence, and dark is just the absence of light.

Our life also the same, there is no hard life is just the absence of something good to come. My favourite motto in life is 'Blessing in Disguise', for me everything that doesn't go according to my plan and wish are all blessing in disguise. We all will always have the last laugh, we just don't know when we will have the last laugh.

Smile

How to Win Friends and Influence People Dale Carnegie It costs nothing, but creates much. It enriches those who receive, without impoverishing those who give. It happens in a flash and the memory of it sometimes lasts forever. None are so rich they can get along without, and none so poor but are richer for its benefits.  It creates happiness in the home, fosters good will in a business, and is the countersign of friends. It is rest to the weary, daylight to the discouraged, sunshine to the sad, and Nature´s best antidote for trouble. Yet it cannot be bought, begged, borrowed, or stolen, for it is something that is no earthly good to anybody till it is given away.  And if in the last-minute rush of Christmas buying someone should be too tired to give you a smile, maybe we can leave one of ours for them. For nobody needs a smile so much as those who have none left to  give !  give ! https://www.thesun.co.uk/living/23...

Who Am I?

You are what you captured, read and listen. Last year after I completed my degree, I have lots of time in my hand. I have had spent most on my relax time on social media such as YouTube, Instagram, and Facebook. I received heaps of news and information from these three platforms only. All these information spread on social media have changed my MBTI personality from the Defender ISFJ to the Advocate INFJ; from the protective, warm and caring to the mystical and idealist. In 2019, I was so bloody active on promoting good causes and good news, increase the awareness of the people on the latest issues that happened around the world, pass on some petitions, greetings people, give comments, give likes to people post, get involved in online discussion, joined international group, etc. My friend also mentioned about the trend of social justice warrior, and how common it is among us millennials. With the advancement in technology, the search engines algorithms on the internet help us to pick t...

The Gateway to All Understanding

The tao that can be told is not the eternal Tao The name that can be named is not the eternal Name. The unnamable is the eternally real. Naming is the origin of all particular things. Free from desire, you realize the mystery. Caught in desire, you see only the manifestations. Yet mystery and manifestations arise from the same source. This source is called darkness. Darkness within darkness. The gateway to all understanding. Tao The Ching Chapter 1
