Episode 51


Once Gibran mastered his own thoughts, managed to change the negative thoughts to positive, forget the bad things and replace them with good memories, making Gibran feel more alive. He felt that not all of his life was a disaster. He did not feel that his life was worthless. He again has a purpose in life as Hasan's message is that he must be a successful person and be able to stand on his own feet. Just that one positive thought, gave Gibran tremendous power to rise up and realize that he was too precious to give up and become the trash he is today.


“Today, consider it a nightmare,” said Manira, smiling cheering her best friend. “You are a smart and smart person. It is time for you to rise. Don't be like a drowning man. Show me you're alive,”


Gibran was doubtful. He felt that there was too much left behind. There had been a lot of time he wasted in the corner of the old station and was friendly with dried leaves to mourn his fate and regret his own life. Unknowingly there were already many things that he had missed and he had gone through in vain. Manira is right, someone who only remembers the bad things in his life will eventually dissolve in his own anxiety and drown in wounds even though they have passed. When one realized it, they were already far behind. There are too many things they miss. For Gibran, it was mainly about his education. To be able to dream of being a successful person, everyone can do it. But how can he do it if education alone does not exist.


“What can a street kid who just graduated elementary school do?” Gibran desperate.


“The successful people are not supermen. Success does not require super-intellect. Success is not something mysterious. Success is not good luck. Successful people are ordinary people who believe in themselves and in what they do. Don't take yourself too low, because you.


“Hehehe Gibran laughed, dry. He felt Manira was trying to comfort him like a crying child and then silenced with lollipops. Gibran knew that the “istiwa” Manira called was just a pleasantries to comfort him, to encourage him when everything was a lie. “You said I was special? Where is the special location of a Gibran who is only proud as a broomstick in the old station,”


“You're smart,”


“Oya??” Gibran did not believe.


“If you are not intelligent, you cannot possibly understand everything I say. In fact, it was you who made me sober up and rise up. Realize that in this world I am not the only one who suffers from love. Seeing you in such a mess makes me feel the need to change you for the better. Makes me feel the need to remind myself that the world is not over. Only you, while everyone else can only scold me and think I'm crazy. That means you're great,” Manira said with great admiration for the figure of a homeless man who turned out to be very intelligent and more powerful than sane people out there who can only scold and judge others.
