Apakah Anda Masih Berintegritas?

Sebuah pertunjukan menghebohkan, lebih heboh dari Broadway, kemarin digelar di Indonesia. Lokasinya di Gedung DPR. Nama pertunjukkannya Sidang Paripurna.

Bukannya bangga, saya ngenes, malu, dan sedih.

Dan tidak hanya itu yang membuat saya sedih, saya sedih karena, quoted from @wimar – twitter account-nya Pak Wimar Witoelar, Metro TV sekarang sudah sedikit berubah haluan. Metro TV menjadi biased. Saya jadi bertanya, apakah Metro TV sudah ‘dibeli’? Atau mereka sudah takut untuk tampil beda?

Tampil beda. Adakah dari kita yang berani tampil beda di jaman sekarang? Tampil beda yang saya maksud adalah menjadi terang ditengah kegelapan, menjadi putih di tengah-tengah hitam, menjadi manusia di tengah-tengah drakula. Berintegritas ditengah-tengah corrupted generation.

Integritas. Suatu kata yang mungkin sudah semakin langka. Ada baiknya kita buka kamus dan melihat arti kata Integritas. Inilah arti kata integritas yang saya temukan:

Integritas (Integrity) adalah bertindak konsisten sesuai dengan nilai-nilai dan kebijakan organisasi serta kode etik profesi, walaupun dalam keadaan yang sulit untuk melakukan ini. Dengan kata lain, “satunya kata dengan perbuatan”. Mengkomunikasikan maksud, ide dan perasaan secara terbuka, jujur dan langsung sekalipun dalam negosiasi yang sulit dengan pihak lain.

Walk the talk. Itulah konklusi yang saya ambil dari definisi di atas.

Kalau kata @paulocoelho di tweetnya kemarin malam (2 Maret 2010): Don’t say No if you want to say Yes. Don’t say Yes if you want to say No. And Maybe is for people who don’t want to commit. If you are not sure, just keep silent.

Berintegritas, gampang kah? Kalau dari definisi di atas, menurut saya berintegritas tidak gampang. Saya sendiri tidak yakin saya sudah melakukannya dengan baik. Tapi at least saya berusaha.

At least saya tidak lempar palu ke muka orang yang tidak saya suka.

At least saya tidak teriak-teriak, atau mendorong-dorong kolega saya dengan cara yang menjurus ke anarkis.

At least saya tidak bisa dibeli dengan uang untuk mengatakan hal-hal yang saya tahu tidak benar.

At least saya belum pernah disuruh bos saya untuk melakukan hal-hal yang tidak sesuai dengan hati nurani.

At least, saya belum pernah mencuri uang, apalagi yang belakangnya ada tulisan M atau T.

Dan at least, saya rasa saya belum pernah berbahagia di atas penderitaan orang lain.

Bagaimana dengan Anda?

Semoga juga belum, dan tidak pernah, ya.

Opini orang biasanya biased, Nia. Begitu juga dengan om Wimar. Saya juga follow beliau, tapi karena saya sendiri jarang mengikuti MetroTV, saya enggak berani bilang kalo MetroTV udh biased. Saya harus akui karena membaca tweet-nya om Wimar, saya jadi punya apriori ketika nonton program MetroTV, padahal itu juga jadi enggak baik, karena setiap informasi lebih baik diserap secara langsung dari mata/telinga kita sendiri. Kalau kita dengar itu dari orang lain, entahlah, informasi itu sepertinya sudah terdistorsi. ;(

What would you do if you could live another life

What would you do if you could live another life just for one day? This line is quoted from "Last Chance Harvey" . I have watched this film twice and still feel so touched everytime I watch it. Kate Walker, the main character in this film, uttered this question to Harvey Shine. In this story, both of them lived a life that is not very happy-chappy. Kate lived in a pathetic, boring life; Harvey in a screwed one. When Kate asked this question, both of them seem to ponder: what if I could live a different life, just for one day, just to try out. This question makes me ponder, too: what would I do if I was given a chance to live any kind of life I want, just for one day? Where would I be? What would I do? Who would I be? Lately I have been thinking about the life I am living right now. Everything is so well-planned. I graduated from high school, went abroad to study, came back home to work, went abroad again to do my master, working in a reasonably good organisation, and going ho...

The unexpected wedding

Almost every girl has ever dreamt of her wedding day – what she would wear, who would come, who the prince charming is. I would say, every girl must have a certain expectation and standard when it comes to a wedding: it could be grand, small celebration, family only, destination wedding – you name it. My dream wedding happens to me a small, close friends and family only wedding. If you grew up in the 90s, you would know a boy band called 98 degree. They had a song titled ‘I do’. If you search on YouTube, you will find the video clip, which shows a beautiful wedding ceremony. That’s my dream wedding! My whole life, I was picturing that. Twelve years ago, I started dating this guy, who is now my husband. His family background is very different than mine. Among other things – which we thankfully have tolerated and worked on – the way to throw a wedding party is totally different. His dream wedding party is ‘tell the world I am getting married’-kind of party. Yes, he wanted grand...

Cold Feet

One of my closest friends is getting married tomorrow another one in May another one in November. and an ex-classmate is also getting married in April/May. and, I dreamed about getting married last night. I remember some months ago I was so enthusiastic with the idea of getting married. Although I knew that our relationship was not yet ready for that stage, I was so pushy to Stefy. I had asked him when exactly we would get married. Ah well, it was all the flashy things that I longed for. Right now, what I want is to avoid it! I am just not brave enough to throw myself into this new status. Don't get me wrong, I am probably just like any other girls out there who like the beautiful wedding gown, like to be made up, like to be the queen of the night. But, have you ever considered what would happen after you wave off the guests and head to your own home, starting your new chapter of life? or what would happen after the happy chappy honeymoon? Would we then live...
