The Final Letter: Who is God?

I was born in Indonesia, which one of the most religious country. Indonesia has six official religion by the government but it still has so many local religions, such as Kejawen in Java, Sunda Wiwitan in West Java, Sapto Darma in Yogyakarta, etc. And, Muslim is one of largest-population in Indonesia and reach 87% or 229.6 million. Christian, Catholic, Hindu, Buddhism, and other religions are minority population. All schools taught in religion class, so students required to learn religion. So, I grow up with religion habits until present. My parents always taught me about God and religion. I knew my own religion and also other religions, but it was just basic, such as how to fasting, how to praying, and how to read the holy book. And, I'm now at a religion college. You know the entire of my life will never separate on how much important religion.

I met religion leaders and I learned lots from them. I would definitely thankful and felt blessed with them, because I believe something that happen to God if I learn with them. I truly appreciate it. 

I know if I talk in religion, it will be offended and sensitive, but I will talk carefully and I definitely won't make an unimportant discussion. That's my personal with God. I believe. I will write a shortly thoughts on God, because I want something makes very specific.

Based on my experience, I would believe on God. I'm happy right now. I never regret what I believe. I see how God works and wants me. When I will do what I wanted, I know my decision and action should be take a responsible with God not people. People are human so they aren't God. I will always avoid if people want to know about me and my habits. It's me, I just do it myself not you. I have a responsible with God. When, I didn't believe in God, I will regret in all my life. I read the holy book, it makes feel blessed and grateful.

You know what "grateful" is, I love that word. That's such a powerful word that I've heard so often. What that is? You definitely ever doing wrong, right, sin, and unexpected, right? It's just normal, but I know it will makes you sad, upset, and depression. But, you need to grateful every you did it. To be grateful definitely you will be cheerful, put a smile, and keep positive thinking. You will face every problem, you will put a smile and take a grateful. Grateful will make you feel strong and better. That's really powerful word that you should know. You have to tried to be grateful.  That's would never tough. Just put a smile and face the problem happily. I love to be grateful.

I still learn actually. I'm not a perfect human, still have a sin, but I will always tried to be better and grateful. I learn from people that I met and something that I had. My goal is tried to be better, open-minded, grateful, and tolerant. That's just I want. I hope so.

I hope you all will be healthy, grateful, and cheerful. I also hope you will respect on my reflection. I will going to pray for you all. I'm going to apologize if something makes you feel offended. 

Thank you, everyone!

Disclaimer: I would never talk about my religion in public, but it is just about what my reflection on God and I also would never say what my religion is, because it's my personal.  Please respect my opinion. Thank you!

Apakah Anda Sungguh Berpikir Bahwa Orang Tuli Tidak Bisa Belajar Bahasa Inggris? (Terjemahan Bahasa Indonesia)

Sumber:https://www.fitriananda.com/2020/08/ayo-belajar-bahasa-inggris-seru-loh_19.html  Sebagai orang Indonesia yang terlahir sebagai orang Tuli tidak akan pernah mudah. Ada banyak stereotipe tentang orang Tuli, seperti bodoh, bahasa isyarat adalah bahasa Tarzan, tidak ada masa depan, bisu, tidak sempurna, berdosa, dll. Dan juga, banyak orang dengar berpikir bahwa bahasa isyarat tidak dapat membantu orang Tuli untuk belajar untuk menulis dan berbicara. Sebaliknya, membaca bibir yang diyakini banyak orang dengar dapat membantu orang Tuli untuk menyesuaikan kehidupan masyarakat dengar secara standar.

Why Are Men Less Interested in Learning Sign Language?

Source: Why Great Sign Language Interpreters Are So Animated https://cdn.theatlantic.com/media/mt/food/g1%20615.jpg As a sign language teacher, I would notice that so many women are more interested to learn sign language than men. All my classes tend to be dominated by women. I don't know why it happens. We discussed how to recruit more male prospective students in our class but it was tough to find it and still accept the dominated women. For example, a class has 20 students consisting of only 3 men and 17 women. I was reading two websites that linked wondering about what women are more interested to learn sign language than men. There were just opinions and not research. I taught students of the fifty-fifty by 2 women and 2 men of 6 students and it was in 2021 when we limited the students' quota due to pandemics.  That was far fair in my teaching experience. I have never seen all male-dominated in my sign language class. You can read the links here: https://www.reddit.com/r/a...
