Tell me what is in your mind when you read/heard the word
“Java”? Yep, it’s coffee (though it’s actually not), or a software for fun, or a
programming language!!
(Damn it) True, that is what I found about “Java” when google
it (seriously?). But hold on,
Java is actually the name of an island in Indonesia,
the place where I was born, grew up (tsk tsk tsk), and on the first time: learn
the values of life. Here are some elderly Javanese quotes that are strongly remaining
in the communities to date.
Sugih tanpo bondo
(wealthy without possessions)
Nglurug tanpo bolo
(attack without forcing)
Menang tanpo
ngasorake (won without toppling)
Digdoyo tanpo jopo
(unbeatable without spells)
Interesting huh? Now, what do you know about the Javanese
Avatar? Ahaaa …….
