Made up a day for my family and mentoring newcomer (Diary, June 25th, 2024)

Being able to play with my child is something I have to cherish. I found a better life, I feel my kids are closer to me now. Today, I woke up and saw them playing happily and when they saw me, they started telling me many things. This indicates that they already feel close to me.

Laughing and joking with Fatiya and teasing her older brother and sister who were hanging out. Preparing lunch for them and seeing them play well together is a joy for every parent, including me. After lunch, I accompanied them all to play. Ahya, who started learning to play the Tom game on her mom's cellphone, even though she lost, was still enthusiastic about playing. I just smiled to myself seeing that she was annoyed because she could not overcome the obstacles in the game.

When it was time for them to take a nap, Fatiya and Khudaija refused to take a nap and chose to go outside to see their older siblings attending their afternoon recitation class. I assume they have rested in the room which is specifically prepared for teachers to rest. I didn't hear any sound. I went back into the house and cleaned up while helping my wife wash the dirty clothes that had piled up.

I remember yesterday Ahya asked to buy toast, and the plan is that today I will take her out to relax after tonight's recitation class is over. Now it's time for me to work on making posts and at the same time get my mind full of ideas for writing. It has become a habit that if my thoughts are not expressed in writing, the result is that I will feel guilty and regret. Sometimes I feel like it's a shame that I didn't put this idea into writing and the idea disappeared in vain.

I deliberately went out early because at 9 pm I will be home and it's time to take the children to go find the snacks they like. We are not rich but always try to be happy with what we have, but still control our expenses strictly.

Upon arrival at the coffee shop, I contacted @charilazmi, I aimed to provide some advice regarding writing which I noticed had not yet made significant progress. But I'm sure that with continuous learning he will become more proficient. I know he understands design and photography better because he works in photography and editing plus design every day.

I discuss example by example how to write a post, while occasionally showing how I write a diary. I know my diary writing isn't very interesting, but it's enough for a start. I also point out some posts that I think are interesting to read. I agree with Mama Kitty @wakeupkitty not to write an opening like most diary posts do on this platform, because it will make the diary uninteresting to read. Moreover, the opening is up to 1 full paragraph.

As I promised my children, I will come home at 9 pm to pick them up and take them to buy snacks. There is still a little money left to pamper them, I call this Better Life because this remaining money is also the result of selling some steem.

Fatiya, Ahya, my wife, and I went together to Panton, our first goal was to look for toasted bread, but in the end, Ahya chose to buy hamburgers which also happened to be provided by the toast seller. My wife and I just watched them order according to their wishes. 4 burgers were ordered so that there would be enough for their two older sister who were waiting at home.

The place selling hamburgers happens to be in front of a shop that sells various necessities, from snacks to other household necessities. I told my wife to try going into the shop and asking if they sold the detergent we needed because it would save us time shopping tomorrow.

It just so happened that what we needed was available at a cheaper price than where we usually buy it. My wife looks satisfied, because she can buy everything at once, and doesn't need to go shopping tomorrow morning.

The most enthusiastic is Fatiya, because she likes hamburgers with extra eggs and ham (this is a special ham made from beef). All the way home she was busy asking to be shown where the moon was and where the moon's house was. Various questions in her mind poured out, including asking where the moon sleeps, where the moon's mother is, and where the moon's father is. Finally, I stopped by the road and showed her the moon, which at this time looked bigger than usual.

Fatiya's question about where the moon father and moon mother live made me think, how lonely she would feel if I weren't around. Psychologically, she is aware that her mother and father are always by her side, so the question arises of where the moon's father and mother are currently.

After she was satisfied with seeing and admiring the beauty of the moon, we continued our journey home. Arriving home, Fatiya took the initiative to call her siblings to enjoy the Hamburger and Chimory Yogurt she had bought. She prefers to have everyone gather to eat together, and what is more important to her is sharing fun things with her three siblings. This habit did not escape my attention actually. Because I like to monitor children's character from an early age. Because this is an important part of character growth.

After accompanying them to eat hamburgers, I went back to the office (coffee shop) because my laptop was still there and there were still several things I had to continue, including writing posts that weren't finished.

I went back to the office (coffee shop) because there was unfinished writing, free writing that I had been thinking about for the past 2 days, and the result was this Unspoken Words.

These Unspoken Words represent the feelings of some people who have struggled hard to the end, but still, need to sacrifice more, and in the end, most of them were disappointed because they did not get the results they desired, and they will keep hoping to get something good. They have sacrificed many things to get what they call happiness but reality says otherwise. Whether it's about love, ideals, material desires, or the hope of being with the person they love.

My ability to write is very limited, even in writing it is actually difficult to realize what comes to my mind in more detail. What I can do is write it better in the future, and continue to hone my writing skills so that readers can enjoy it better. I'm sure someone will read it someday and appreciate what I wrote.

That's enough for now, it's time for me to rest, my best wishes to everyone.
