A Siamese cat Warabi is straightening her back, and she's waiting with a noble face. She seems to care about the chair's seating comfort so that she's waiting for the resident cat Ohagi to leave for a long time. Cats also have appetitive behaviors, which they want to use unusual things as a human being. At the end of the cat video, it's gone a bit weird.
背筋をピンと正し（猫背ですが）、凛とした立ち姿を見せるシャム系猫のわらびちゃんです。椅子の座り心地が気になる様で、先住猫が退席するのを今か今かと首を長くして待っています。珍しい物に乗ってみたいなんて、猫ちゃんも人間と同じ行動欲求があります。動画の中で、彼女はずっと待ってはいたのですが、こんなトホホな結果になってしまいました。

Bila Ibu kita sudah tua.

Ibu kita ini sering kesunyian. Ibu sering ketakutan. Ibu sering dilanda kerinduan. Dahulunya hidup si Ibu bertemankan suaminya yang dicintai. Kini teman sehidupnya telah lama pergi. Janji semati tidak mampu lagi ditepati. Tinggallah si Ibu sendirian meniti hari.

Jika kita letak diri di tempat Ibu sebegini, mampukah kita menjawab soalan - soalan yang bermain di fikirannya? Dapatkah kita mendengar bisikan hatinya tanpa menitiskan sedikit pun air mata?
...Continue ReadingWhen our mother is old.

Our mother is often lonely. Moms are often scared. Mother is often affected by longing. Once a mother lived with her beloved husband. Now friends in life are long gone. The promise of the life is no longer able to be fulfilled. Leave the Mother alone on the day.

If we put ourselves in a mother's place like this, can we answer the questions that play on her mind? Can we hear the whisper of his heart without shed a little tear?

Well, feel some of what's playing on our Moms mind.

′′ My husband, why did you go first? Why leave love alone? My husband, dear miss, how do you love to live this life? Baby is scared, love is quiet. Love can't live alone. Please return my husband. Unusual love. We always do everything together. Why go first? What do you want to do? Baby is so scared."

At the time and time I type the verse in the paragraph above, I literally cry desperately - esak like a child. That's just a little bit actually. Can't afford to dive any deeper. My heart feels so small as squeezed - pinch being as small as a guli. The eyes are heavy looking, the shoulder is still heavy.

Don't be reprimanded why Mom always remember what the late Father likes and does together often. Dozens of years, there must be things that will be attached to Mom's mind forever. Surely every one that has been touched, will be felt, every happiness that has been fulfilled, will be remembered.

Don't dare talk about ′′ move on ′′ and life must go on. If we have never felt the loss of a friend who has been together for decades, we will never ever understand the longing and loss that Mother has passed until we go through it ourselves.

Don't you rudely suggest a replacement. Mom already knows who's waiting for her in heaven later. The most loved person is the husband.

Our mother is often misunderstood. Usually Mom doesn't mean what we interpret. Sometimes Mom is too honest because she's been tired all the time holding back, taking care of her heart and always ignoring her sensitivity.

We as younger, we as children must be patient. Although sometimes it's bitter to swallow, but we have to accept the way our Mother is as Mom has accepted us since we were young.

How can we not stand the burden of mother while this Mother is the one who gave birth to us? How can we raise our voice to the people who introduced us to the world? If you ever treated a mother like this, don't you remember sin, a rebellious child?

When was the last time we asked our Mother what our Mother wanted to do? If there is, try to realise it. If you haven't, make it as soon as possible. We don't know maybe it's his last desire or maybe that realised desire will give him the spirit to live for years.

At this age, Mom likes to tell stories. Sometimes the same thing. Surely most of the old things. Pay attention to him. Enjoy the conversation and the sharing. That's all that's left in Mom's mind, past things. Memory of a million color life. Moments of joy, distress, role model and border. As long as you can, take it all. Absorb the sharing. Hopefully we can follow through the experience of life.

Old age brings a thousand pain. Practice asking how our Mother's health is. Accompany Mom to the hospital when needed. Now everything is upside down. Remember us when we were small? How scared are we to see a Doctor? However, Mother's hand leadership calms everything down. Just like now. Our mother is like a terrified child, believe that she really needs a soul calm that we are her children.

The end of the word, let us not be children who do not remember our services. When we're in trouble, Mother among the first to put a hand out. Everytime we feel like being angry at Mom, think what we have donated to her? Is it the same as what we have ever received? If not, it's better to be silent than to say. Because our responsibility will not be equal. No matter how much gem gold is in the world, we can't afford to give Mother lives.

So much my heart nukilan about Mom. Hopefully can open eyes and mind.

If your mother is gone, pray and give charity through the benefits she has given and in her name. Hopefully this can help him in the afterlife.

Billboard Year-End Hot 100 singles of 1984

1984是很奇特的一年，整年52個禮拜，Billboard專輯榜上只有五張專輯拿過冠軍，是歷史上最少的一年。首先是在前一年已經拿了22週冠軍，Michael Jackson的《Thriller》，這年一開始又拿了15週冠軍。接下來電影《Footloose（渾身是勁）》的原聲帶拿了10週，Huey Lewis and the News好不容易衝出來搶到一週，又被工人皇帝的鉅作《Born in the U.S.A.》打下去佔據四週冠軍。剩下的就全看Prince表演了，他的《Purple Rain》拿了22週冠軍，直接結束這一回合。（其實接下去隔年還多拿兩週）

雖然如此，卻一點也不代表其他作品乏善可陳，Lionel Richie延續第一張專輯的好成績，在第二章專輯大爆發，年終單曲前五十名裡他有三首歌：《Hello》、《All Night Long（All Night）》、《Stuck on You》。

更引人注目的是這張榜單上有兩位天后的出道作品，Madonna跟Cyndi Lauper。
Madonna的第一張同名專輯成績已經算是很不錯，年終單曲榜進了3首歌，但也只是第35、66、79名，只有一首《Lucky Star》得過單曲週榜第4，在英國反而比在美國紅。
相形之下，Cyndi Lauper的第一張專輯《She's So Unusual》裡，一共有4首單曲進入單曲週榜TOP 5，是史上女藝人的空前紀錄。進年終單曲榜的三首歌排名是15、17、34，其中《Time After Time》還拿到兩週週榜冠軍，明顯壓著Madonna打。
這一年真的是全世界都拿她們兩個來比，不過Madonna從隔年專輯《Like a Virgin》就一路爆紅，而Cyndi Lauper卻在三年後才發了《True Colors》，雖然成績也很好，但已經不再有天后對決的態勢了。

每週在YouTube直播的時候會播當週歌單的歌喔，我儘量挑在台灣傳唱度不是那麼高的作品來跟大家分享。

Cyndi Lauper 「Time After Time」
アルバム：She's So Unusual (1983)
作詞曲：Cyndi Lauper, Rob Hyman
日本語詞：渡辺レベッカ

今日は、アメリカのシンガーソングライターCyndi Lauperの名曲バラード「Time After Time」の和訳カバーをお届けします♪

小学生の頃からよくラジオで流れていた思い出の曲です。私の解釈では、大切な人と離れているのに、必要であればその人のためにいつでも力になりたいと言っていると思います。二人の関係は、恋人とは限らないと思います。

歌詞

ベッドから　時計の音　聞こえる
惑いながら　あなたを思う

あのぬくもりの記憶が
頭の中を回る

通り過ぎてく私を呼ぶ
その声が聞こえなくて
「待って」とあなたの
一言で　時が戻る

迷った時　そばにいる　いつでも
転んだ時　受け止める　何度でも
迷った時　そばにいる　いつでも
転んだ時　受け止めるよ　何度でも

いつか雨が降り止んだ日に
私のことを思い出すでしょう
深く秘めた秘密が　明かされてく　

迷った時　そばにいる　いつでも
転んだ時　受け止める　何度でも

You say “go slow” – I fall behind
The second hand unwinds

If you're lost, you can look and you will find me
Time after time
If you fall, I will catch you - I’ll be waiting
Time after time
If you're lost, you can look and you will find me
Time after time
If you fall, I will catch you - I will be waiting
Time after time

Time after time
Time after time
Time after time

～♪～♪～♪～♪～♪～♪～

Romanized Lyrics

beddo kara tokei no oto kikoeru
madoi-nagara anata wo omou

ano nukumori no kioku ga
atama no naka wo mawaru

toori-sugite'ku watashi wo yobu
sono koe ga kikoenakute
"matte" to anata no hitokoto de
toki ga modoru

mayotta toki soba ni iru itsu demo
koronda toki uke-tomeru nando demo
mayotta toki soba ni iru itsu demo
koronda toki uke-tomeru yo nando demo

itsuka ame ga furi-yanda hi ni
watashi no koto wo omoi-dasu deshou
fukaku himeta himitsu ga akasarete'ku

mayotta toki soba ni iru itsu demo
koronda toki uke-tomeru nando demo

You say “go slow” – I fall behind
The second hand unwinds

If you're lost, you can look and you will find me
Time after time
If you fall, I will catch you - I’ll be waiting
Time after time
If you're lost, you can look and you will find me
Time after time
If you fall, I will catch you - I will be waiting
Time after time

Time after time
Time after time
Time after time
