Surat ini dibuat putra saya Satrio Wibowo ( Bowo ) di usia 13 yang kecewa saat berulangkali hampir tidak naik kelas karena prestasi akademisnya rendah dan selalu diragukan kecerdasannya oleh pihak sekolah. Surat ini tidak pernah dikirimkannya kepada siapapun karena Ia tidak tahu harus mengadu kepada siapa. Ia telah menulis novel fantasi dalam bahasa Inggris ' Willy Flarkies ' yang mengisahkan tentang kehidupan di dunia paralel dengan teknologi futuristik. Saat ini Ia home schooler setingkat SLA. Ia bermimpi mendapatkan beasiswa ke luar negeri demi meraih cita-citanya sebagai kreator tingkat dunia. Sebagai ibunya, saya selalu berdoa agar cita-citanya diridhoi Allah SWT ...Amin.
MY DESTINY By : Satrio Wibowo
Hey….everyone, my name is Satrio Wibowo but everyone used to call me Bowo, 13years old. I lived in Bogor-Indonesia and for the past few years I had my days miserable. Why? Because I’m the only one who always got the lowest rank in my class. Everyone is smart, even my best friends has better grade than me. My teachers always tell me like that.
Back to my profile, all my days are miserable and no one even care about my skills. I have created a novel fantasy ' Willy Flarkies ' 450 pages in English when 12 years, but it had been rejeckted by Indonesian’s Publishers cause they only interested to publish books in Indonesian language, not foreign language as a market reason. I also like painting but when I offered to The Galleries they tell me too young and rejected my creation. Huuuuhhh…Indonesia only cares about purely academic matter, they don’t respect someone like me because they just want all Indonesian schools now and further there will be SBI (International School) until the students have to get a higest ranking without creativity and they think it’s super while I think it’s a super idiot.
At school, everything sucks! My school just like other schools around the world, restricted rules, restricted uniformand same brain washing thing . All the teachers are all vicious except a few teachers I knew them as ally. Every day I have to go to school and suck math or science but I think their teaching system is the wrong thing. It’sthe 21th century now and everything should change not always have to be like this. One day I want to make a school with 25% theory and 75% practice because when it comes to theory, it gets really sleepy; when it comes to practice, will gets boundless creativity. This is the essentials of science to makes better civilization.
You know what? The world is in a really big crisis right now but no one even realize that. What our primary mission? To fix things that has been contaminated by wrong future. But for us the mission is not easy cause our life gets miserable and that’s the first test we must take from God. I had all my days full of problems but that doesn’t stop me from continuing my mission. Like Einstein said “It’s not that I’m genius, but I stay with problems longer.” His words was really spinning in my brain cause I think he’s a genius.
Everyone said that the gifted children had more potential to create unlimited imagination and that’s true, since I have that category, I do have unlimited imagination that no normal person can get. I have mastered drawing, writing, English language without even have to learn them. Those are my special skills while I’m really suck with theory. Many people think smart people such as scientists can make a different to the world and bring good future to the world. Well, I disagree with that cause Einstein said “Imagination is more important than knowledge. Knowledge is limited. Imagination encircles the world.” And that is what happen to our world.
Let’s start from Thomas A. Edison, everyone thinks he is a genius because of school while the truth refers to the negative side. Thomas was actually a kid with so many problems and by that he got kicked out from his school, and that’s why his mother losing hope of what he going to be in the future. But Thomas & Mom never give up, maybe he suck with school but his brain can take more than school to make his action a complete change for the world. And now ask yourself how can Edison invent lamp or light and change the world slightly.
I surely guess that Edison is a genius child but nobody knows, its just a guess. My favorite inventor right now is Bill Gates cause he’s the guy who make slight different same as Edison. Bill is a genius from the start; he even gets to study in Harvard University. In his life Bill always wants everyone in the world can have their own personal computer and that’s why he invents Microsoft. But because he’s too excited with his invention, he’s been expelled from Harvard and he didn’t even get any certificate from school. From there he learn his fault and giving advice to all over the world about his mistakes.
