Lihat orang-orang yang tersenyum itu. Di belakangnya bisa jadi ada segudang beban menumpuk. Namun mereka memilih tersenyum karena mereka tahu...
Mereka sudah tahu bahwa sedih terus itu menguras tenaga, mengeluhkan takdir membuat kaku tangan dan kaki untuk berkarya.
Mereka menangis sampai sesenggukan jika diperlukan. Mereka tersungkur sampai demam ketika lelah menampar badan. Tapi setelah itu mereka bangun lagi. Mereka hadir lagi.
Mereka tahu hidup itu bergelombang; setelah turun ia akan meninggi. Setelah tinggi pun ada masanya jatuh lagi.
Tapi mereka paham bahwa hidup adalah anugerah terbaik yang Allah berikan. Mereka kembali tersenyum karena tahu bahwa masa depannya ada di tangan Allah yang sempurna rencana-Nya.
Maka buat apa menangis terus, batin mereka. Buat apa mengeluh terus, itu tak mengubah apa-apa.

The Silence of the Lambs (1991) vs. Shaun the Sheep (2015)
Good day everyone I'm Aydin, a native of Turkey, also a victim of the unfortunate earthquake. I and my family live in a neighbourhood called Artmutlu in Antioch, Turkey, Im not from a rich family but my parents struggled to educate me, I left Turkey for the United States to study on scholarship 2 years ago, leaving my parents and sister behind. I woke up on FEB 6 2023 to news of an earthquake in my community.
I tried reaching my family, all to no avail (guess the earthquake affected the reception and connections). After several hours of panic and prayers, I got a message from my mom via WhatsApp, saying our house is gone, not only did the earthquake take our house and properties, but it also took with it my dad, who used most of the home appliances to building a cover for my mom and sister, the cover couldn't take 3 people so he took cover under the bed instead, which wasn't enough to hold the rubbles. My neighbourhood is said to be completely levelled. My mom and sister survived but were left cold on the street. My mom's friend, who was also affected but not as much as ours, took my mom and sister in, both waiting for help. My mom is presently in disarray, and where she's staying won't help as she'd constantly remember/see and even more panics about what's happened. It's not good for my mom. I need to get her to a safer and less panic-filled neighbourhood. I'm still a student who does cleaning works to make ends meet here. I need approximately $1000 to get my mom and sister out of there, get them somewhere to stay, and feed, and others. I need your support AS SOON AS POSSIBLE. please I don't want my mom to die of a panic attack.
Okay you make me feel better
They do say physical activity can lower anxiety and stress!

📹 Palestinian journalist Muhammad Quraiqea tells the story of how he searched for and found his sick mother who was killed while sleeping in the Maternity Ward during the Israeli occupation's raid of Al-Shifa Medical Complex, in the Al-Rimal neighborhood of Gaza City recently.
According to countless reports, hundreds of civilians were murdered during the Zionist raid of Al-Shifa, including women and children, some who were found handcuffed and summarily executed under suspicion of belonging to Resistance groups, while others were murdered even without such suspicions.

The last setences got me laughing :V
Hi my name is Count Doctor Hannibal Lecter VIII M.D. im a cannibal (that’s how I got my name) and I have shiny brown hair with gold streaks and silver tips that reaches my mid-neck and maroon eyes that reflect red pinpoints like limpid blood and a lot of people tell me I look like Sandro Botticelli (AN: if u don’t know who he is get da hell out of here!). I’m not related to Lady Murasaki but I wish I was because she’s a major fucking hottie. I’m a cannibal but my teeth are straight and white. I have pale golden skin. I’m also a doctor, and I own a psychiatric practice in Baltimore where I help my patients (I’m forty-seven). I’m an aristocrat (in case you couldn’t tell) and I wear mostly brown. I love Garrison Bespoke and I buy all my clothes from there. For example today I was wearing a brown plaid suit with a matching silk pocket square and a blue paisley tie, blue socks and brown oxfords. I was wearing pink lipstick, beige foundation, gold highlighter and concealer on my eyebrows. I was walking outside the BSHCI. It was snowing and raining so there was no sun, which I was very happy about. A lot of fbi agents stared at me. I put up my middle finger at them.
“I have no plans to call on you, Clarice, the world being more interesting with you in it. […] Orion is above the horizon now, and near it Jupiter, brighter than it will ever be … But i expect you can see it too. Some of our stars are the same.”
Hannibal and Clarice from TSOTL movie.
…this is the first time that I draw them thinking at the actors, but I like the result.
