Picture: Vinita and Fabrizio with Uncle Alen Jeff wearing batik on National Batik Day 2024 A Sacred Bond They found no one but leave 'em no tears. Their tiny feet that learn to walk. Their little mouths that star to talk. A guiding hand and a loving call.   From baby steps to running free. Eyes open wide with curiosity. Through laughter bright and tearful night. In loving arms, they find their light.   As time moves on, they grow so fast. Each day a gift, memories last. Hand in hand to school they go. A journey shared, as love will show.   They've gone so far, through every phase, through thick and thin. A Sacred Bond, forever within.   Writer : Alen Jeff Tangerang, October 2, 2024

Most of them think that it is a greeting. So, they greet me before sending their presentations; “Good night Mr. I was like, what the heck?😏😣 “Good night” (said with a falling inflection) is a shorthand way of saying “Have a good night”., which is a farewell, not a greeting: something you say on parting, wishing the other well. So, now you know and don’t say it as a greeting anymore. English Greetings are; Good morning ( selamat pagi mulai dari 12.01am - 11.59am). Good Noon ( selamat tengah hari; yakni tepat jam 12 tapi ini jarang digunakan). Good afternoon ( selamat sore, dimulai dari jam 12.00pm - 5.59pm).  Good evening ( selamat malam; mulai dari jam 6.00pm - 11.59am).
