I WANT TO LEARN SOMETHING NEW

My oldest brother lives away from my family. Few years ago, his wife and daughter were visiting us for a couple days. It is a special moment for us as family. We have never met for many years. I do the entire thing needed, I must think how to. I have 2 little niece. Her names are Izzah (6) and Fifi (9). They never met before. I want them to remember that they are still relative family. I want they are close each other. I took camera from someone. I don’t like to do, but I have to. This is the only choice I have; it’s not easy for me.

I shoot them, one two and three times. They are both smile and glad, so do I. Minutes after Fifi want to hold the camera and she begins to cry. I am afraid, the camera it not mine and it’s too expensive for me. But it’s special moment. She is a little girl want to learn something new; How to use a camera. I have no choice to let her bring it. I give her simple instruction. I remind her to hold it carefully. And I was watching her for a while for sure. She shoots Izzah and me; one, two, three times. We are all glad.  Everything is so fine. What I am afraid before is never exist. I took the camera to see the result. I am smile. It’s not good. But it is the best she can. She is a little girl who learns something new for the first time. 

Sometime we have to trust other people or little kid to do something. Sometime we have to wait and see what the result of their doing.  Because we want to give them more chances to try and learn.  As words said, “More time to practice make us prefect.” (Sri Widodo, ST)
