[indoexpat-uk] Duduk Dimeja Makan Atau Menjadi Menunya?

Hore,
Hari Baru!
Teman-teman.

Mungkin anda pernah mendengar ungkapan berikut ini: *"If you are not in the
table, you will be in the menu." *Jika anda tidak duduk dimeja makan, maka
anda akan menjadi menunya. Tentu kita sepakat bahwa lebih baik duduk dimeja
makan daripada menjadi menunya, bukan? Namun, namanya juga ungkapan; tentu
bukan pesan harfiahnya yang perlu kita perhatikan. Melainkan 'makna
sesungguhnya' dari pesan itu. Jadi, apa sih sesungguhnya pesan yang ingin
disampaikan ungkapan itu? Kira-kira demikian; didalam dunia yang penuh
persaingan ini, kita tidak bisa tinggal diam - menunggu seseorang melakukan
sesuatu untuk kita. Kita sendirilah yang harus mengambil tanggungjawab itu.
Karena, jika kita diam saja; maka kita ini tidak ubahnya seperti menu
makanan yang terbaring pasrah dimeja makan. Ingat nasib menu dimeja makan?
Tentu. Sebentar lagi dia akan dikunyah. Ditelan. Dan dua belas jam kemudian
akan dibuang dalam bentuk yang anda tidak ingin melihatnya. Dengan kata
lain, jika kita berdiam diri saja; pihak lain akan mengambil manfaat yang
bertebaran disekitar kita. Sementara mereka menjadi sejahtera; kita hanya
bisa menjadi objeknya saja. Kita tidak ingin mengalami hal sedemikian,
bukan?

Pagi itu saya bermaksud untuk menikmati sarapan. Saya memilih untuk
menyantap soup berisi sayuran. Asyiknya, saya boleh memilih jenis sayuran
apa yang hendak diramu dalam soup itu. Meletakkannya dalam mangkuk. Lalu
menyerahkannya kepada sang koki yang dengan sigap akan memasakkan soup itu
hanya dalam 3 menit saja. Pagi itu, gerakan saya agak terhenti, karena sayur
favorit saya tidak ada. Lalu, saya bertanya; *"Wah, tauge-nya tidak ada ya
Pak?" *Si koki tersenyum lalu menjawab*:"Maaf Pak, taugenya sedang kosong…."
*katanya. Tanpa sayuran yang banyak mengandung vitamin E itu, saya merasa

[indoexpat-uk] The Cheeriest Country?

reference buat yg mau hijrah...

"Believe it or not, the world is becoming a happier place, at least
according to the University of Michigan Institute for Social Research's 2005
to 2007 World Values Survey<http://www.worldvaluessurvey.org/happinesstrends/>.
The cheeriest country?: Denmark. The gloomiest:
Zimbabwe<http://www.zimbabwesituation.com/>—no
surprise given the political unrest there. The U.S. ranks 16th on the list,
just after New Zealand. According to the research, published in the journal
*Perspectives on Psychological
Science*<http://www.blackwellpublishing.com/journal.asp?ref=1745-6916&site=1>,
people are happiest in countries with the most tolerant social norms and
most democratic political systems: Iceland, Switzerland, the Netherlands and
Canada all rank among the top 10 happiest countries in the world.
Researchers have surveyed more than 350,000 people on how happy they have
been for the past 26 years based on their responses to the same two
questions: "Taking all things together, would you say you are very happy,
rather happy, not very happy, not at all happy?" As well as, "All things
considered, how satisfied are you with your life as a whole these days?"
Democratization and rising social tolerance have even more of an impact than
economic growth on happiness, although all are important contributors. The
citizens of India, Ireland, Mexico, Puerto Rico and South Korea all indicate
that they're becoming happier. Alas, those in Austria, Belgium, the U.K. and
Germany say their joie de vivre is waning."
