The Sixth Letter: An Experience With Self Isolated

I began self isolated on March 16 until now. I was doing it because the government's recommendation about WFH (Work From House). Normally 14 days or 2 weeks but I've crossing for more than 14 days even almost 1 month. 

Then, what was I doing during self isolated? 

I just doing:
1. Sleeping
2. Reading book/ ebook and learning some foreign languages
3. Watching many movies/ dramas on internet or file
4. Writing
5. Eating
6. Praying with God
7. Joining interpreter volunteer
8. Involving a joint project with Sejin who female Deaf person from South Korea but living in Auckland, New Zealand
9. Talking and chatting with my friends with video call and texting
10. Attending some online events with Zoom app
11. Others activity 

Obviously, everyone will ask me about my activities during self isolated. 

"How bored are you?"
"Are you happy with this condition?"
"How about your food?"
"How did you feeling about Covid-19?"
"How strong have you been through this?"
And many questions.

My response:
"I'm fine and I have many things. Yeah, you're right, I'm bored. Sometimes, I always miss Jogja's situation, my friends, and my field. But, I have to following the government's policy to save a lot of people and make Indonesia and the world will back to normal activity again."

So, I think this is our obligation to save the world and people, including the medical workers team had fighting for us. If you didn't, it means you ignore their suggestions. You will not be safe. So, Covid-19 is a dangerous thing. The best choice is only to stay at home during pandemic. Through this, pandemic will go quickly. 

For the first time for me, I'm experiencing that problem in my life despite I knew about that because I have reading Spanish Flu pandemic in 1918-1920. Sometimes, I was afraid and always thought about my family, my friends, and even my dream. But, I have God, God will always with me forever. So, I feeling will be safe if I stay at home temporarily. This I have done this and will continue until the end. 

For the medical workers team, I very appreciate and feeling proud of them. My mom was a nurse too. So, I hope they will health during a pandemic. I just saying, "They're real heroes for Indonesia and also the world. They're a HERO now." I'm thankful to them. They're the hero for the world and Indonesia because they are fighting in the vanguard same like a soldier. 

I hope you will stay at home for the medical workers team. Because only stay home, you will save a lot of people. Just a reminder! I hope everyone will be remember that what I saying. 

KEEP FIGHTING! LET'S SAVE THE WORLD WITH ONLY STAY HOME!

Terjemahan: Apa yang Anda Pikirkan Tentang Deaf Power?

Deaf Power mempromosikan sejarah, bahasa, dan nilai-nilai komunitas Tuli di seluruh dunia. Sebagai kedua bahasa dan simbol, itu akan menyebarkan kebanggaan budaya kami . (Sumber: www.deafpower.me oleh Christine Sun Kim dan Ravi Vasavan). Mengapa saya menulis Deaf Power di blog saya? Saya seorang Tuli dan pengguna bahasa isyarat, saya memiliki banyak pengalaman dan momen tentang identitas Tuli. Menjadi identitas Tuli, saya menghadapi diskriminasi dan rasisme di semua lingkungan dan komunitas. Saya menjadi orang Tuli sejak umur 5 hari setelah kelahiran. Hal pertama adalah pengobatan dan terapi pendegaran. Dokter dan orangtua menginginkan kekurangan saya menjadi orang dengar. Jadi, saya menghabiskan masa kecil saya dengan pengobatan dan pergi ke rumah sakit. Saya hanya sedikit mendapatkan pendidikan dari ibu saya atau keluarga saya. Saya tidak tahu siapa mengajarkan saya seperti itu. Kehidpan pertamaku adalah sangat sedikit kata-kata yang saya didapatkan dalam hidup saya. Saya ...

I Am An Author Who You Known, I am Christian

" Take up the cross and follow me " Matthew 16: 24 If you are a loyal reader who has been reading since the first writing published in January 2020, I would like to announce that I have a fact that really needed to announce. Look at a title, that says I am Christian. Yep, I am Christian and am a follower of Christ. I have prepared some questions might you want to ask When was getting baptized? In December 2019 at GKI Gejayan, Yogyakarta. My baptized name is Malachi Raka. Where is the church usually you worship? English Worship, Yogyakarta. Why did you convert to Christianity? It’s a long story but that came to me who had been fighting for the truth and what makes me feel comfortable and to grow up who am myself. I converted because it’s my decision not because of a girlfriend, I do not have a girlfriend and am still single. After spending two years, I ended up finding Jesus Christ through coming to the church and started tearing up while listening to Christian songs. I really...

Why Should A Deaf Person Lives On A Hearing World?

As continued in previous writing titled "Am The Only Deaf Person", I want to speak on why should a Deaf person lives on a hearing world.  This is would be interesting because you know that none of many Deaf populations as much as hearing people have. Hearing people are bigger than Deaf people. Living as a Deaf person isn't easy, even for a hearing family who has Deaf children. Many hearing people do not know sign language. Only hearing people included a Deaf ally and maybe only 5% of the hearing people know sign language.  Which are least 10% of Deaf people who have studied at a mainstream school and as a bit of raised in the hearing world in all their life. As Surya-who was a Deaf panelist on Zoom- said that there are 90% of hearing families who have Deaf children and I can say only 4% of hearing families admitted to want to learn or teach sign language as a first language to their Deaf children. Everything can't change but Deaf people can be living on a hearing worl...
