İslamdan çıkmak, sadece "Ben Müslüman değilim" demekle ya da başka bir dine geçmekle değil, İslam dinini ya da Muhammed'i ya da Tanrı'yı eleştirmek suretiyle de olabilir. Muhammed, kendi döneminde bunun pek çok örneklerini vermiş, örneğin kendisiyle alay eden ya da kendisini peygamber kabul etmeyen kişileri öldürtmüştür. Nice örnekten biri şöyle: Nadr b. Haris, daha Mekke dönemindeyken Muhammed’in sözüne inanmayanlardan biridir Tanrı’dan ona vahiy inmediğini, anlattığı masalların Yahudilerden alınma olduğunu vs. söyler (bkz. Enfâl Suresi, ayet 22, 70). Bedir Savaşı sırasında esir olarak Muhammed'in eline geçer. Muhammed, yıllarca önce Nadr'ın kendisi hakkında söylediklerinin intikamını almak üzere onun kafasını kestirir.

According to Yale’s Cultural Cognition Project, for example, one’s “cultural worldview”—that would be political leanings or ideological outlook to the rest of us—explains “individuals’ beliefs about global warming more powerfully than any other individual characteristic.”16 More powerfully, that is, than age, ethnicity, education, or party affiliation. The Yale researchers explain that people with strong “egalitarian” and “communitarian” worldviews (marked by an inclination toward collective action and social justice, concern about inequality, and suspicion of corporate power) overwhelmingly accept the scientific consensus on climate change. Conversely, those with strong “hierarchical” and “individualistic” worldviews (marked by opposition to government assistance for the poor and minorities, strong support for industry, and a belief that we all pretty much get what we deserve) overwhelmingly reject the scientific consensus.17 The evidence is striking. Among the segment of the U.S. population that displays the strongest “hierarchical” views, only 11 percent rate climate change as a “high risk,” compared with 69 percent of the segment displaying the strongest “egalitarian” views.18 Yale law professor Dan Kahan, the lead author on this study, attributes the tight correlation between “worldview” and acceptance of climate science to “cultural cognition,” the process by which all of us—regardless of political leanings—filter new information in ways that will protect our “preferred vision of the good society.” If new information seems to confirm that vision, we welcome it and integrate it easily. If it poses a threat to our belief system, then our brain immediately gets to work producing intellectual antibodies designed to repel the unwelcome invasion.19 As Kahan explained in Nature, “People find it disconcerting to believe that behavior that they find noble is nevertheless detrimental to society, and behavior that they find base is beneficial to it. Because accepting such a claim could drive a wedge between them and their peers, they have a strong emotional predisposition to reject it.” In other words, it is always easier to deny reality than to allow our worldview to be shattered, a fact that was as true of die-hard Stalinists at the height of the purges as it is of libertarian climate change deniers today. Furthermore, leftists are equally capable of denying inconvenient scientific evidence. If conservatives are inherent system justifiers, and therefore bridle before facts that call the dominant economic system into question, then most leftists are inherent system questioners, and therefore prone to skepticism about facts that come from corporations and government. This can lapse into the kind of fact resistance we see among those who are convinced that multinational drug companies have covered up the link between childhood vaccines and autism. No matter what evidence is marshaled to disprove their theories, it doesn’t matter to these crusaders—it’s just the system covering up for itself.20 This kind of defensive reasoning helps explain the rise of emotional intensity that surrounds the climate issue today.

Leer Chizalum lezen. Leer haar van boeken houden. De beste manier is en passant het voorbeeld te geven. Als ze jou ziet lezen, zal ze begrijpen dat lezen nuttig is. Als ze niet naar school zou gaan en alleen maar boeken zou lezen, zou ze aantoonbaar beter geïnformeerd raken dan een conventioneel opgevoed kind. Boeken zullen haar helpen de wereld te begrijpen en te onderzoeken, haar helpen zichzelf uit te drukken, en haar helpen bij wat ze ook maar wil worden - kok, wetenschapper, zanger, ze profiteren allemaal van de vaardigheden opgedaan door lezen. Ik bedoel geen schoolboeken. Ik bedoel autobiografieën, romans, geschiedkundige boeken, boeken die niets met school te maken hebben. Als niet haar aan het lezen krijgt, betaal haar dan om te lezen.

... biz Atatürk devriminin ideolojisini yaratmışızdır, Daha doğrusu bir kadro hareketi olmuştur. Tek olarak kalmıştır. Atatürk de bunu manevî gölgesi ve kanatları altında korumaya çalışmıştır. Nitekim 10. yılda da yalnız Kadro'ya beyanat vermiştir. İsmet Paşa yalnız Kadro'ya yazmıştır. Bu derginin de biliyorsunuz işte, ideolojik yazılarının başyazılarım ben yazardım. Yakup Kadri'nin çevresinde toplandık. Bir Vedat Nedim, İsmail Rüştü Tekin, vs. işte Burhan Belge, Bu büyük bir hareket oldu. Dışarıda da hâlâ yankıları devam eder. Burada bunun da prensiplerini İnkılâp ve Kadro kitabımda o zaman neşretmişimdir ki Atatürk bu kitap yüz bin nüsha basılsın, demiştir. Fakat fikir serbestimizi muhafaza edelim, dedik. Kendimiz bastık, ne kadar basılabilirse... O halde ideolojisi var mıydı Türk inkılâbının? O zamanki tâbiriyle yine Arapça zâtından meknuz idi. Yani bünyesinde gizli idi. Ama ifade edilmedi. Atatürk de ifade etmedi. Fakat Kadro, bunu vazife bildi ve geniş neşriyat yaptı. O zaman buradaki Almanlar vs. bunlarla çok... Bugün de Amerika'dan, Kanada'dan, her gelen bu kadro hareketi üzerinde benimle konuşmalar yapar. O halde inkılâbımızın ideolojisini yeniden ele almalıyız. Çünkü Cihan'da iki çelişki biliniyordu. Bir sınıflar çelişkisi, bir de devletler çelişkişi. Sınıflar çelişkisi malûm. Proletarya ile kapitalist arasındaki çelişki. Marks bunu işlemiştir. Devletler arasındaki çelişki de emperyalizm. Yani dünyanın taksimi üzerinde devletler birbirleriyle çarpışmıştır. Ben Moskova'da, Komüntem'de Lenin'in bir tezine dayanarak Stalin'in bunu müdafaa ettiğini biliyorum ve bir Polonyalı da bunu teşyi etti Orada Türkiye'nin de adı geçer ve denildi ki Millî Kurtuluş hareketleri peyk hareketlerdir. Müstakil hareketler değildir. Bu Millî Kurtuluş hareketları olacak. Emperyalizm yenilecek. Ama emperyalizm yenildiği gün millî kurtuluş hareketlerine önder olan demokratik burjuvazinin rolü de sona erecek. Bunun yerine ihtilâlci proletarya vaziyete hâkim olacak. Biz bunu Kadroda reddettik. Evvela iki çelişki yoktur, üç çelişki vardır dedik.
Biri emperyalist devletler arasındaki çelişki, biri sınıflar arasındaki çelişki, biri de sömürge ve yarı sömürgelerin sahibi devletler arasındaki mücadele. Nitekim biz o mücadeleyi temsil ediyoruz. Bizim millî kurtuluş hareketimiz anti-emperyalizmdir bir kere. Halbuki emperyalistlerin arasındaki mücadele, emperyalist bir mücadele... Sen zaptetmeyeceksin o ülkeyi ben edeceğim, sen almayacaksın... Bütün cihan harpleri bunun için çıktı. Bu görüş İnkılâp ve Kadro kitabında bütün teferruatıyle işlenmiştir. Şimdi bunu genişletmek lâzım. Ve şimdi daha sükûnetle, işlenebilir bu...

sorun aslında ‘’soytarı’’ gibi soytarılarımızın olmaması olabilir. ‘Soytarı’ kelimesi, Arapça, sahte fallus takarak gülünç ve çoğunlukla müstehcen oyunlar oynayan kişiler için kullanılan ‘sa’tir’den geliyor. Arapça ‘satir’in kaynağı ise Eski Yunanca’da sahte penis ve keçi ayaklarla tasvir edilen mitolojik yaratık ‘satyros’. Batı dillerine vakıf Ahmet Vefik Paşa, Lehçe-i Osmani’de, soytarı kelimesini ‘’taklitçi maskara’’ şeklinde tanımlamış. Maskara, Arapça’dan Batı dillerine geçmiş kelimelerden biri. Güldürmek, eğlendirmek için başka kılığa giren, yüzünü başka bir şeyle kaplayan örten gibi anlamları var. Evet doğru tahmin ettiniz; ‘maske’ ve ‘maskot’ ile de tabii ki ilgili… İngilizce’de ‘jester’ deniyor soytarıya. Anglo-Norman ‘gestour (ozan)’ kelimesinden türemiş. Fransızca da ‘minstrel’ de deniyor bu halk ozanlarına. Minstrel ise, eski Fransızca’da hizmet, görev gibi anlamları olan ‘menistere’ o da Latince ‘bir başka otoritenin emrinde görev yapan’ anlamındaki ‘ministerium’dan geliyor. Britanya devleti 1916’dan beri Başbakanın altındaki devlet departmanlarına ‘minister’ demeye başladı. Jester(soytarı) ile bakanın(minister) birleştiği yer de burası. Jester, Kral’ın dar kabinesinin bir üyesiydi. Sadece üyesi değil en imtiyazlı üyesiydi. Elbette ki kralı eğlendirmek, keyiflendirmek gibi bir görevi vardı. Ama bununla sınırlı değildi. Soytarı, Kral’ın gittiği her yere giderdi. Asla yanından ayrılmazdı. Hatta yatak odasına bile girebilirdi. Düzenle kaos arasındaki çok ince bir çizgide görev yapardı. Çünkü en önemli görevi, kimsenin yüzüne karşı gerçekleri konuşamayacağı kişiye (kral, derebey, hükümdar vs) sürekli doğruyu söylemekti. Etrafları yağcı ve yalakayla çevrili krallar, kendilerine doğruyu söyleyebilsin diye etraflarında bir soytarıyı mutlaka tutardı. Soytarının becerisi, krala, rahatsız edici gerçeği, mizahi bir tarzda kralı rencide etmeden, küçük düşürmeden söyleyebilmekti. Bunu da çoğunlukla bir dörtlükle, bir halk şarkısı şeklinde ozanca, dans, kıyafet ve mimikleriyle komikçe dile getirirlerdi. Hükümdarlığın üst düzey yetkililerini, piskoposların veya hükümdarın yozluğunu, tembelliğini, yönetimle ilgili dokunulmaz görülen herşeydeki yanlışı hicvedebilirdi. Örneğin bütün gece sabaha kadar içip, akşama kadar sızması nedeniyle bir çok devlet işini aksatan İkinci Charles’ın soytarısı, bir sabah Kral daha yeni uyumaya hazırlanırken odasına girmiş ve onu uyutmamıştı. ‘Peki tamam, duyayım hatamı, söyle’ diyen krala, ‘bütün ülkenin diline düşen hatanızı burada söyleyerek başımı derde sokacak değilim’ diyerek zekice bir karşılık vermişti. Soytarılar, ciddi politik kararlarda bile kimsenin konuşmak istemediği gerçeği dile getirebilirdi. 1386 yılında Avusturya Dükü, İsviçre’ye saldırma kararını özel savaş konseyinde tartışmaya açtı. Bütün konsey üyeleri kararın ne kadar isabetli olduğunu söyleyerek alkışlıyor ve İsviçre’ye girmenin yolları üzerine kafa yoruyordu. Gerçeği konuşmak Dük’ün yanı başında oturan soytarıya düştü: ‘’Sizi ahmaklar, hepiniz İsviçre’ye nasıl gireceğinizi biliyorsunuz da, bir taneniz bile geri nasıl çıkabileceğimizi söylemiyor..!’’ Yani Shakespeare’in ‘King Lear’ oyununda, krala doğruları söyleyebilen tek bilgi karakterin ‘The Fool’ olması boşuna değil. ‘The Fool, Kral Lear’in sadece iyi zamanında değil kötü zamanında da yanında kalan tek kişidir. Shakespeare'in ‘Twelfth Night’ oyununda ise ‘soytarı Feste’, ‘’deliyi oynayacak kadar bilge’’ diye tanımlanıyordu. Kağıt oyunlarındaki her derde deva ‘joker’ de, soytarıdan başkası değildir. Polonya’nın 16’ncı yüzyılın ilk y

This means that workers can expect to get more money as society becomes more advanced, but only because more money is produced. As more of it is produced, it skews the balance of supply vs. demand and so causes inflation – it is as if money itself gets cheaper. So the rate at which wages increase will tend to be the same as the rate of inflation – nominal but never real, in economic terms.

De Oval Office, waar Allan tegenover zijn drinkmaatje uit Los Alamos zat terwijl hij naar diens uiteenzetting luisterde, was bijna net zo ovaal als Allan gedacht had. De president vertelde dat hij werd lastiggevallen door een vrouw die hij om politieke redenen niet kon negeren. Ze heette Song Meiling, had Allan misschien al eens over haar gehoord? Nee? Hoe dan ook, ze was de vrouw van Chiang Kai-shek, de leider van de Kwomintang, oftewel de Chinese Nationalistische Partij. Ze was beeldschoon, had in Amerika gestudeerd, was de beste vriendin van mevrouw Roosevelt, trok duizenden toeschouwers als ze ergens verscheen en had zelfs een toespraak voor het congres gehouden. Nu maakte ze president Truman echter het leven zuur omdat ze wilde dat hij alle mondelinge beloften nakwam die ze volgens haar van president Roosevelt had gekregen wat betreft de strijd tegen het communisme.

[N]eurobiology will never be the bridge to the unconscious, for neurobiology explains at a different level from psychology.
[...]
One approach that retains the knowledge of biological mechanisms yet does not assume a reductionistic approach is supervenience. Properties of one kind, such as consciousness, supervene on properties of another kind, such as neurochemical transmission [.] The underlying property must be there, but the supervening property cannot be reduced to the underlying property. Therefore different avenues of inquiry into the thoughts and behaviors of mankind are necessary if we are to avoid the deterministic, and frankly, depressing limits of a purely materialistic approach.

Cara Mengobati Herpes Penyakit herpes kulit sendiri dapat diartikan sebagai radang kulit yang ditandai dengan terbentuknya gelembung-gelembung secara berkelompok. Gelembung-gelembung tersebut biasanya berisi air dan dapat menular jika terjadi persentuhan dengan objek lain. Sehingga penyakit herpes termasuk dalam salah satu kategori penyakit menular.

Cara Mengobati Herpes Secara Alami Ada dua jenis penyakit herpes yakni herpes zoster yakni penyakit yang menyerang pada kulit dan herpes genitalis yakni penyakit herpes sebagai salah satu penyakit kelamin. Sedangkan yang akan kita bahan kali ini adalah penyakit herpes pada kulit dan penyebab penyakit herpes tersebut.
Penyebab penyakit herpes kulit ini adalah virus yang ditularkan oleh virus varicella-zoster berawal dari penyakit cacar air, ketika seseorang terserang penyakit cacar air maka virus varicella-zoster akan menetap dalam kondisi tidak aktif atau laten pada salah satu atau lebih pusat saraf posterior.
Cara Mengobati Herpes yang sudah parah Bagi Anda yang memiliki lebih dari satu pasangan, mustinya waspada dengan penyakit ini. Semakin sering berganti pasangan, resiko tertularnya semakin tinggi, terlebih bagi wanita. Faktanya, wanita memiliki resiko terinfeksi herpes dua kali lipat lebih besar dibanding pria. Hal ini dikarenakan permukaan organ genital wanita lebih lebar dari pria.

Hidup Berkekurangan vs Hidup Berkelimpahan
Ada manusia yang hidupnya bagai batu yang dipanggul di punggung, berat tak tertanggungkan. Mereka berjalan tertatih, setiap langkah adalah hutang napas yang harus dibayar dengan keringat dan rasa sakit. Para kuli di pasar, kenek bangunan, pekerja serabutan di pinggir jalan, satpam dan buruh pabrik shift malam yang menyulam waktu dengan kantuk dan lapar—mereka seakan hidup hanya untuk memastikan besok masih bisa makan. Uang menjadi rantai, mengikat pergelangan tangan dan kaki, menjadikan mereka budak dari sesuatu yang berasa tak pernah cukup.
Namun, apakah uang sungguh jahat dan sekeji itu? Atau justru manusialah yang menuliskan kutukan atas lembaran kertas yang berharga itu? Uang di tangan orang bodoh adalah cambuk yang melukai, tetapi di tangan orang bijak ia adalah sungai yang mengairi banyak ladang. Ia bisa jadi berhala, tapi juga bisa jadi pujian persembahan. Ia bisa menelanjangi wajah asli keluarga dan sahabat—siapa yang tetap bertahan saat perahu bocor, siapa yang hanya datang ketika layar terkembang.
Uang, pada akhirnya, hanyalah kaca pembesar yang memperlihatkan isi hati manusia. Ia bisa mempermalukan orang yang tamak, atau meninggikan martabat mereka yang tulus ikhlas. Ia menguji, apakah kita akan menjadi hamba uang, atau menjadikan uang pelayan kita.
Kemiskinan yang paling getir bukanlah perut kosong atau dompet yang tipis. Yang lebih mengerikan adalah kemiskinan jiwa: ketika seseorang kehilangan penghormatan pada dirinya sendiri. Orang yang merasa rendah, tak punya arti, selalu membandingkan dirinya dengan orang lain, hingga hatinya penuh iri, dengki, dan kebencian. Itulah jurang terdalam—kemelaratan batin yang membuat manusia buta tak bisa melihat cahaya kecil dalam dirinya.
Sedang mereka yang hidup berkelimpahan tak selalu berarti mereka yang berkelebihan harta. Orang yang sungguh kaya adalah mereka yang tangannya selalu di atas—memberi tanpa mencatat, menolong tanpa menghitung. Mereka menakar kekayaan bukan dari banyaknya yang disimpan, melainkan dari besarnya yang dibagikan. Dan justru ketika mereka memberi, rasa cukup itu meluas, melimpah, tak habis-habis.
Karena kelimpahan sejati bukanlah saat tangan menggenggam, melainkan saat tangan terbuka. Ketika memberi, sebenarnya kita sedang menabung di tempat yang tak terlihat. Bank dan korporasi bisa bangkrut, saham bisa jatuh, tapi tabungan di surga tak pernah kehilangan nilai.
Seorang yang arif tahu, tabungan terbesar bukanlah di tempat di mana ia menyimpan uangnya, melainkan di hadapan sesama. Ia menabung dalam bentuk kebaikan yang tak terlihat mata, tapi terukir di buku langit. Ia menanam di ladang kasih sayang, dan buahnya dipetik dalam bentuk kedamaian yang tak bisa dibeli.
Hidup yang berat selalu membawa pilihan: apakah kita akan membiarkan diri diperbudak oleh kesulitan, atau menjadikannya cambuk untuk berjalan menuju kelimpahan batin? Karena sejatinya, miskin dan kaya bukanlah sekadar kondisi dompet, melainkan kondisi hati.
Seseorang bisa tidur di rumah reyot dengan senyum damai, dan seseorang bisa gelisah di ranjang emasnya sambil menahan rasa sakit. Maka, kebahagiaan bukanlah tentang berapa banyak yang kita punya, melainkan berapa banyak yang masih sanggup kita syukuri, dan berapa banyak yang berani kita bagikan demi membantu orang lain.
Pada akhirnya, kaya dan miskin hanyalah label duniawi. Yang sesungguhnya menentukan: apakah kita hidup sebagai pemilik yang tak takut berbagi, ataukah sebagai hamba dari rasa kikir dan tamak yang tak pernah berkecukupan.

Dulu vs Sekarang: Warisan yang Hampir Hilang
Zaman dulu ada seorang bocah naik sepeda berkilo-kilo,
hanya untuk sampai ke sekolah di luar kampungnya.
Ada anak lain yang mesti berjalan sampai kaki pegal ke rumah temannya hanya untuk meminjam buku bacaan.
Tapi anehnya, mengapa anak sekarang malas melangkah?
Malah merasa bangga disebut kaum rebahan.
Mereka juga malas membaca padahal semua ilmu ada di genggaman layar kaca.
Orang dulu mengumpulkan receh demi membeli sebidang lahan,
membangun rumah sedikit demi sedikit,
lantainya mungkin tanah, atapnya sering bocor,
tapi ada mimpi yang mereka renda di atas atapnya,
harapan yang mereka pahat di setiap dindingnya.
Lalu bagaimana orang sekarang melihat dirinya?
Bekerja sepuluh tahun pun, rumah masih berhenti sebatas imajinasi.
Gaji pertama langsung ludes dalam gebyar pesta perayaan semalam dan cicilan gawai terbaru.
Air minum, bagi orang dulu, direbus penuh sabar di tungku kayu—
sisa panasnya dipakai untuk berdiang menghangatkan tubuh.
Bagi orang sekarang, air minum harus bermerek;
Cappucino, espresso, latte atau matcha boba kekinian
dikemas dalam plastik sekali pakai,
diminum bukan karena haus,
tetapi agar terlihat keren saat di foto.
Barang orang dulu awet seperti doa:
sepeda diwariskan, lemari antik dipelihara, kain batik disimpan hingga pudar warnanya.
Barang orang sekarang sekali lewat hanya sebatas tren:
baru sebentar sudah merasa bosan,
dibuang, ditukar, ditinggalkan,
seperti janji-janji yang tak pernah ditepati.
Dulu banyak anak dianggap rezeki,
meski rumah hanya seluas kamar kos-kosan saat ini.
Tapi nyatanya, lima anak semua jadi sarjana, hidup nyaman sejahtera.
Sekarang, satu anak saja dianggap beban,
lalu diputuskan tak perlu lahir sama sekali.
Di mana lagi bisa kita temukan kerja keras, pengorbanan dan kebijaksanaan?
Apakah ini sekadar paranoia yang dibungkus logika yang sengaja dibengkokkan?
Makanan dulu dinikmati sekadar untuk bertahan hidup:
singkong, jagung, bubur, nasi lauk kerupuk, sayur dan sambal—kenyang sudah cukup.
Sekarang, makanan harus enak, harus estetik, di kemas cantik,
difoto dulu sebelum disantap.
Dan bila tidak sesuai ekspektasi rasa nikmat di lidah,
langsung dicaci, langsung diviralkan,
seolah perut telah kehilangan rasa syukur dan penghargaan anugerah dari Tuhan.
Tabungan dulu jadi jimat yang dianggap keramat:
uang disimpan dalam celengan tanah liat,
ditabung serupiah demi serupiah buat beli tanah, sawah, tegalan.
Emas disimpan dan dipelihara bukan cuma untuk dikenakan di pesta hajatan pernikahan.
Sekarang malah sebaliknya, uang dibakar dalam pesta,
dihabiskan di kafe, tiket konser, memburu diskon belanja palsu.
Hidup bukan lagi tentang menyiapkan hari esok,
melainkan tentang menguras apa yang bisa dihabiskan hari ini.
Orang dulu sabar menahan diri, puasa bukan sebatas ritual setahun sekali menjelang idul fitri.
Mereka tahu, lapar dan lelah adalah guru.
Sabar dan diplin adalah ilmu yang tak kalah penting dari pelajaran di sekolah.
Anak masa kini terjebak FOMO:
takut tertinggal tren, takut tak dianggap,
hingga lupa kalau waktu yang hilang tak pernah lagi bisa dibeli.
Ironinya membayang di depan mata:
Orang dulu hidup sederhana tapi tenang,
karena kebahagiaan mereka berakar pada makna.
Orang sekarang hidup mewah tapi gelisah,
karena kebahagiaan mereka mesti hadir setiap waktu,
terpampang indah hanya di atas layar,
namun mudah dipadamkan lewat satu sentuhan jari.
Dan kelak, ketika semua berlalu,
yang tertinggal hanyalah penyesalan yang tak bisa diputar kembali.
Mereka akan bertanya pada dirinya sendiri:
mengapa aku begitu sibuk mengejar bayangan,
hingga lupa merawat cahaya matahari yang sesungguhnya?

Menjadi Tua vs Muda Selamanya
Ada sebuah lagu yang dulu sering kita dengar, sebuah nyanyian abadi tentang kerinduan manusia:
keinginan untuk tetap muda selamanya. Selamanya cantik, selamanya kuat.
Kita menyanyikannya dengan penuh semangat,
seolah hidup bisa berhenti pada satu titik di mana segalanya masih terasa indah.
Tapi waktu pasti berlalu, tak pernah bisa ditawar tak pernah bisa diganggu. Ia seperti arus sungai yang menyeret kita perlahan menuju laut. Keriput muncul tanpa permisi, gigi tiba-tiba tanggal sendiri, rambut memutih, punggung bungkuk berasa nyeri. Tubuh yang dulu perkasa menyerah kalah pada sendi yang berderit seperti engsel pintu kurang minyak,
mata yang dulu tajam mulai mengabur,
ingatan yang dulu terang mulai berkabut.
Menjadi tua adalah pelan-pelan menjadi pohon yang kehilangan daunnya—satu per satu gugur ke tanah, tanpa bisa menahan angin.
Rambut memutih bukan hanya tanda waktu, melainkan salju yang diam-diam turun di atas kepala. Kulit keriput adalah peta retakan bumi, menandai gempa-gempa kecil yang pernah terjadi: cinta yang bertepuk sebelah tangan, kehilangan yang menyakitkan.
Menjadi tua kadang seperti sungai mengalir kembali ke pangkuan bumi—bukan karena ingin, tapi karena tubuh memaksa demikian. Kita tak bisa terus-terusan berjalan menentang angin melawan kodrat.
Tangan yang dulu menggenggam dunia, kini gemetar hanya untuk meraih segelas air.
Kaki yang dulu tegak menjejak lantai, kini tersandung karpet di ruang tamu.
Mata yang dulu berkilat penuh ambisi, kini berair tanpa sebab, seolah meneteskan kesedihan yang tak sanggup terucap.
Orang bilang, masa tua adalah anugerah.
Tapi di sela doa panjang dan pujian syukur, ada luka diam yang tak tersampaikan: rasa ditinggalkan, dilupakan, bahkan dianggap beban.
Seperti lilin yang perlahan habis, ia tetap menerangi, namun nyala kecilnya sering tak lagi berarti.
Ada yang berjuang mati-matian mempertahankan wajah mudanya dengan segala cara: operasi plastik, krim pemutih, suntikan botox, bahkan polesan ilusi digital.
Seolah ketakutan pada keriput lebih besar daripada ketakutan pada kehilangan jiwa dan akal sehat.
Namun sungguh, waktu tak bisa ditipu—ia adalah pedang tak kasatmata yang terus menggores, menghujam, mengingatkan kita bahwa keabadian hanyalah mitos dalam lagu dan doa.
Tua adalah penantian yang sepi dan menggetarkan hati: menunggu suara pintu dibuka cucu kesayangan, menunggu kabar telepon yang jarang berdering, menunggu tubuh ini menyerah pada bayang penyakit yang mendera.
Dan pada akhirnya, menunggu saat di mana semua luka akan dihapuskan oleh timbunan tanah.
Ironi yang pahit dan menohok ulu hati:
dulu kita ingin cepat dewasa, kini kita takut menjadi tua.
Dan saat akhirnya tua itu datang tanpa diundang, hidup terasa seperti lingkaran aneh:
perlahan kita kembali menjadi anak kecil lagi. Butuh dituntun, butuh ditemani, butuh dijaga.
Tapi kali ini, tak ada lagi masa depan panjang yang girang menanti
yang ada hanyalah penantian akan sebuah perpisahan yang berasa menyedihkan.
Dan ketika semua gemerlap memudar, barulah kita sadari: menjadi muda selamanya hanyalah ilusi. Yang abadi bukanlah tubuh kita,
melainkan jejak kebaikan, cinta yang kita tinggalkan, cerita yang kita wariskan. Menjadi tua itu getir, memang. Tapi menjadi tua tanpa pernah benar-benar hidup, tak punya makna, itulah tragedi yang sesungguhnya.
Mungkin kita tak bisa memilih untuk selamanya muda,
tapi kita bisa memilih untuk tetap hidup dengan hati yang selamanya muda: tetap belajar, tetap mencintai, tetap memberi arti pada hidup, pada sesama. Karena tubuh akan mulai rapuh, tapi jiwa yang penuh kasih dan empati—akan selamanya abadi.

### Qu’est-ce qu’un générateur de Robux de Roblox
#### Le concept derrière les générateurs de Robux
Un générateur de Robux est un outil en ligne ou un logiciel qui prétend offrir des Robux gratuits sans que les joueurs aient à payer de l’argent réel. Cela semble trop beau pour être vrai, n’est-ce pas ? Certains outils fournissent réellement de petites quantités de Robux en échange de tâches, de sondages ou de partenariats.
#### Ces générateurs fonctionnent-ils vraiment ?
Tous ne fonctionnent pas. Certains sont des arnaques, tandis que d’autres sont des outils vérifiés qui offrent de petites quantités de Robux en échange de ton temps, comme regarder des publicités ou remplir de courts sondages.
### Types de générateurs de Robux
**Outils web en ligne**
Les plus populaires. Il suffit de visiter un site, d’entrer ton nom d’utilisateur et de commencer à générer des Robux. Aucune installation requise.
**Applications téléchargeables**
Certains outils se présentent sous forme d’applications mobiles ou PC. Ils offrent souvent une meilleure interface et plus de stabilité, mais nécessitent une installation. Consulte les avis avant de les utiliser.
**Versions mobiles vs PC**
Les versions mobiles sont légères et accessibles, tandis que les applications PC disposent de plus de fonctionnalités et d’un traitement plus rapide. Choisis selon ton appareil.
**Générateurs basés sur les sondages et les tâches**
Ici, tu dois accomplir de petites tâches, comme répondre à des questionnaires ou télécharger une application. Plus tu complètes de tâches, plus tu gagnes de Robux.
### Les générateurs de Robux sont-ils sûrs ?
#### Risques de sécurité
Tous les générateurs ne sont pas sûrs. Certaines plateformes frauduleuses cherchent à voler tes identifiants ou à installer des logiciels malveillants.
#### Éviter le phishing et les malwares
N’entre jamais ton mot de passe Roblox dans un générateur. Un outil légitime ne demandera jamais tes identifiants privés.
#### Comment identifier un générateur sûr
* Vérifie les certificats SSL (https).
* Consulte les avis d’utilisateurs réels.
* Évite les sites demandant un paiement anticipé.
### Guide pour utiliser un générateur de Robux de Roblox
**Étape 1 : Choisis un outil vérifié**
Ne fais pas confiance aux publicités tape-à-l’œil ; utilise des plateformes avec des avis positifs.
**Étape 2 : Entre ton nom d’utilisateur Roblox (aucun mot de passe requis)**
Les générateurs légitimes n’ont besoin que de ton nom d’utilisateur pour attribuer les Robux. Ne partage jamais tes données privées.
**Étape 3 : Sélectionne la quantité de Robux et complète la vérification humaine**
Choisis une quantité raisonnable (par exemple 100–500 Robux). Ensuite, tu devras prouver que tu n’es pas un robot.
### Vérification humaine – Pourquoi et comment
* Regarder une vidéo de 30 secondes
* Remplir un court formulaire
* Télécharger une application et l’utiliser

### Qu’est-ce qu’un générateur de Robux de Roblox
#### Le concept derrière les générateurs de Robux
Un générateur de Robux est un outil en ligne ou un logiciel qui prétend offrir des Robux gratuits sans que les joueurs aient à payer de l’argent réel. Cela semble trop beau pour être vrai, n’est-ce pas ? Certains outils fournissent réellement de petites quantités de Robux en échange de tâches, de sondages ou de partenariats.
#### Ces générateurs fonctionnent-ils vraiment ?
Tous ne fonctionnent pas. Certains sont des arnaques, tandis que d’autres sont des outils vérifiés qui offrent de petites quantités de Robux en échange de ton temps, comme regarder des publicités ou remplir de courts sondages.
### Types de générateurs de Robux
**Outils web en ligne**
Les plus populaires. Il suffit de visiter un site, d’entrer ton nom d’utilisateur et de commencer à générer des Robux. Aucune installation requise.
**Applications téléchargeables**
Certains outils se présentent sous forme d’applications mobiles ou PC. Ils offrent souvent une meilleure interface et plus de stabilité, mais nécessitent une installation. Consulte les avis avant de les utiliser.
**Versions mobiles vs PC**
Les versions mobiles sont légères et accessibles, tandis que les applications PC disposent de plus de fonctionnalités et d’un traitement plus rapide. Choisis selon ton appareil.
**Générateurs basés sur les sondages et les tâches**
Ici, tu dois accomplir de petites tâches, comme répondre à des questionnaires ou télécharger une application. Plus tu complètes de tâches, plus tu gagnes de Robux.
### Les générateurs de Robux sont-ils sûrs ?
#### Risques de sécurité
Tous les générateurs ne sont pas sûrs. Certaines plateformes frauduleuses cherchent à voler tes identifiants ou à installer des logiciels malveillants.
#### Éviter le phishing et les malwares
N’entre jamais ton mot de passe Roblox dans un générateur. Un outil légitime ne demandera jamais tes identifiants privés.
#### Comment identifier un générateur sûr
* Vérifie les certificats SSL (https).
* Consulte les avis d’utilisateurs réels.
* Évite les sites demandant un paiement anticipé.
### Guide pour utiliser un générateur de Robux de Roblox
**Étape 1 : Choisis un outil vérifié**
Ne fais pas confiance aux publicités tape-à-l’œil ; utilise des plateformes avec des avis positifs.
**Étape 2 : Entre ton nom d’utilisateur Roblox (aucun mot de passe requis)**
Les générateurs légitimes n’ont besoin que de ton nom d’utilisateur pour attribuer les Robux. Ne partage jamais tes données privées.
**Étape 3 : Sélectionne la quantité de Robux et complète la vérification humaine**
Choisis une quantité raisonnable (par exemple 100–500 Robux). Ensuite, tu devras prouver que tu n’es pas un robot.
### Vérification humaine – Pourquoi et comment
* Regarder une vidéo de 30 secondes
* Remplir un court formulaire
* Télécharger une application et l’utilise
