An unsatisfactory, awakening, message

di meja tulis gue banyak bertebaran kertas2…
ada 1 kertas, di paling dasar, yang selama ini gue ga pernah inget.
kertasnya kecil, ukurang bookmark gitu deh..
dulu gue ambil karena menurut gue kata2nya bagus,
tapi kenyataannya ga pernah gue liat juga,.. cuman tergeletak di meja, malah tertimbun sama kertas2 lain..
….
kata2 di kertas itu bunyinya begini:
"It is a very great poverty
to decide
that a child must die
that you might live
as you wish"
-Mother Teresa of Calcutta
….
waktu gue baca lagi kata2 itu hari ini, pdhl I knew those words but I took them for granted..
dan untuk kesekian kalinya, gue bener2 ke"sentil" lagi
how we may be rich according to this world, but many of us live in great poverty, poorer than the poor.
