Happily Ever After (read it carefully..)

First of all let me wrote this posting in English. Although I know I’m not really good in English.. and I know it will causing most of you not read this posting.. ^^ but I don’t mind and I want to try. .  

In such a fairy tale specially when the ending is good you will hear this sentences often. Usually the story will begin on the hero point of view.. then the hero will meet the heroin. After some adventure together.. they will connect each other.. beat the villain and I will say it again..they live “happily ever after”.

But is it truly “happily ever after??”

This thought come from the newest shrek movie. The movie told about shrek life after he save princess Fiona.. get married to her.. having three cute child.. have a good friend.. all people in that country like him.. humm.. sounds like a perfect life for me.. isn’t it folks..? for shrek, the first time and a couple month maybe yes.. what a perfect life!! But after time pass and almost a year.. he feel something different..

Some part of him feel that he no longer the ogre his used to be.. he feel bored and not satisfied with his life. Only looping the same activity day by day.. but he keep his feeling on his own. Until one day right in the middle of his children birthday party.. All the crowded situation make him can’t hold his feeling any longer. He roar and slam the birthday cake. . after that he argue with his wife.. about his life and his feeling not being an ogre like he used to be.. he tell that he not happy and wish can back to the time when he still usual ogre and can freely live on his way..

In this scene I make note in my mind what his wife say to him. “ You have wife who loves you, three beautiful children.. good friend.. everybody in this place like you.. YOU HAVE A PERFECT LIFE.. but why only you CAN’T SEE IT..??” say her it with a sad face.

Then shrek meet with the villain Rumplestilskin. . but shrek doesn’t know Rumplestilskin is the villain.. so he make some deal to change his life and back to one day in the past. Which is the day when shrek was born. The effect after the contract is.. no body knows shrek because he was never born. For the first time he feel happy.. But as life as is.. there always be a trouble folks.. without shrek being born, all people life that he knows is change and it’s a bad change.. including his wife “Fiona” life.. shrek at last realize about his fault.. “I DIDN’T REALIZE HOW’S PERFECT MY LIFE UNTILL IT’S GONE”. So he fight once again for his life.. after long adventure.. he knows that.. for the one he love he must sacrifice his own happiness for their happiness.. that was “LOVE”. And as you can predict this movies is a good ending type movie.. so he succeed beat the villain and take his “PERFECT LIFE” once again..and THEY LIVE HAPPILY EVER AFTER.. “THE END”

As a close statement I will say ..

First..offcourse you now life is not a fairytale and not as simple as “Happily Ever after”. There will be next story which is untold to us. About what happen next..? what kind of life will the hero and the heroin living off..? In real life.. the story will not end just after you meet your Heroin.. there still a plenty of thing you must fight for.. yes.. fight for the happiness. Although all the way you pass to find your perfect heor/heroine is hard and full of straggle.. it doesn’t mean that end after you meet her/him. So I will say life is such a never ending straggle.. for collecting one happiness to another one..some time by smile.. some time by tears..

Second.. sometimes we forget to say grateful to Allah. Our Ordinary life.. our daily activy.. actualy contain a lot of happiness.. but most of us blind to see it or sense it.. but ALLAH always know how to bring us back. ALLAH will give us some difficulty in our life.. sometimes sickness.. or uneasy feeling.. to make us remembered again.. .. I will give you a clue if you forget.. ALLAH say it on HIS love letter to us.. read in ALQURAN – Surah Ibrahim – Ayah 7.. and all the difficulty will make us realize “HOW PERFECT OUR LIFE’S IS”.. don’t wait until “YOUR PERFECT LIFE IS TAKEN” to make you realize.. always be a grateful human folks..
