Admitted or not, obedience to our parents plays the key role in our long journey of lives, especially for people living with eastern culture like Indonesia.

I was born in Denpasar Bali. I was a loving daughter of my parent due to my academic records since play group until entering the Faculty of Medicine.

And also I did whatever my parent wanted me to, in other words always obeying their words, except one thing that I do regret until this time.

If only God gives me a chance to be reborn, then I do really want to do correction to my behaviour to my parent. I have made them disappointed, when I disobeyed their words, not to marry until I finish my study in medicine.

And that was the greatest mistake I’ve made. Because since then, everything went wrong..

I took so long time to pause from studying my medical sciences, even almost droped out. My first son had to go on surgery for ileus invagination by his just 4 months old baby.

And after that more and more bad experiences I had to face in my daily life.

I went back to campus after ten years absent. And this was never happened, if only my mom did not push me time after time to continue my study, be a career woman, have my own income and be financially independent.

Yes, I do regret so much for being disobeyed to my parent especially my mom. She was a tough woman, school teacher and always wished her children to be men and women with dignities..

I miss my mom and dad almost everyday. I wish I could made them happy, before they passed away..
