History is written by the winner.
The winner is always the good guy, no wonder..

I was searching for references for my essay, when I came across to some mind-blowing thing. Well, at least it was mind-blowing for me.
I just found out that Borobudur Temple was never in the list of seven wonders of the world. (Oh yes, I'm from Indonesia) Now, it may seems normal to non-native people out there. But it is odd for us Indonesian.
Every single year of our school life, we'd been taught that Borobudur Temple was one of the seven wonders. Well, I guess that's not true at all, huh? I don't know what you call it.. pride? nationalism? propaganda? I don't know.. but this is ridiculous. I get it.. we need to be proud of our culture.. blablabla.. But is it right to misinform us?
It's fine to tell us about Borobudur just as one of our wonderful heritages, and I'm sure I wouldn't be in awe any less. Now.. can I still believe in what school had taught me? I don't know anymore..

So close, yet so far..
Sudden realization :
So.. there is always this side of a story.
I get it now.. totally get it now..
In a relationship, we need to tolerate each other, right?
I'm not letting my-selfish-self takes control of me.
No.. not this time..
