Hey hey hey, happy fasting month!
How are you guys doing? Keep it lively!
Okay, last night I couldn't sleep coz I got this idea to have a special mission on Lebaran Day. Well, not exactly on that particular day, but it will start from there when most of the members of our big family gather. I'm thinking about having a book which will record our family data, at least their birthdays and phone number. Making such a family tree. I think it's important to do and it could be the starting line to bring the family closer.
Actually I had this thought years ago. I ever interviewed my grandparents in both sides to tell about our family. I made only small family tree coz they didn't remember that well. Now the family grow bigger and babies are coming along, if I don't make a note, somehow, it's gonna be overwhelming for the next generation to recognize their anchesters.
I was inspired by my Batak friends, to tell you the truth. They have family trees and they know their anchesters, even from the first generation. I think that'a amazing.
In some javanese family in Jogja, Solo or Klaten, they also have a special gathering of "trah" which kind of forum to know each other in one big family. I think that's really cool coz the opportunities to strengthen and help each other rises. Staying in unity.
After all the people who will take you as you are and will be the tremendous support is your family, right?
So, I'm gonna do it .
