Pelajaran dari Biji Kopi

Suatu hari, seorang perempuan muda datang kepada ibunya, berkeluh kesah tentang kehidupan yang penuh masalah. Baru selesai satu masalah, datang lagi masalah lainnya. Ibunya mendengarkan dengan seksama, lalu mengajak putrinya ke dapur.

Ia lalu mengeluarkan 3 buah panci. Mengisinya dengan air dan mendidihkannya. Sesudah itu, ia mengambil sebatang wortel, sebutir telur dan bubuk kopi, lalu dimasukkan ke dalam masing-masing panci, merebus semuanya sampai matang tanpa berkata sepatah pun.

Sesudah matang, telur dan wortel diletakkan di piring. Air kopi dituang ke dalam cangkir. Ia lalu menyuruh putrinya mendekat dan berkata, “Coba katakan apa yang kamu lihat!”
“Wortel, telur, dan kopi, “jawab putrinya.
Ia lalu menyuruh anaknya menekan wortel, mengupas telur dan memperhatikan telur itu. Sesudah itu, ia menyuruh anaknya minum kopi. Dengan rasa heran lalu si anak lalu bertanya, “Apa maksud dari semua ini?”

Change the World

When I was young and free and my imagination had no limits,

I dreamed of changing the world

As I grew older and wiser I realized

the world would not change. And I decided to shorten my sights

somewhat and change only my country.

But it too seemed immovable.

As I entered my twilight years,

in one last desperate attempt,

I sought to change only my family, those closest to me,

but alas they would have none of it.

And now here I lie on my death bed

and realize (perhaps for the first time) that if only I’d changed myself first,

then by example I may have influenced my family

and with their encouragement and support

I may have bettered my country,

and who knows I may have changed the world.

- Leo Tolstoy -
