awaiting culture

Last night unusually healthy atmosphere in the clinic near my house was so crowded. Whether it was sick or what season, it certainly made me have to wait longer. For low-class people like me, the presence of these clinics are quite helpful. Moreover, if viewed from the cost of treatment. Quite affordable.

It turned out that night I realized that there awaiting culture, which seems to have continued to be trained in this country. Waiting is a thing very boring. Imagine, just last night I had to wait in line for a half hour! Pretty tired right? Activities waited closely related to the level of patience a person or group of people. Need other activities that are inserted when we have to wait. Could by reading books, listening to music, or just a look around.

Culture does not seem to wait for our culture. At least not yet become our habit. For comparison and reflection materials, Japan is one country that is famous for its culture of waiting. There, if there is a meeting or whatever, they prefer to wait than expected. According to them it can assess how polite a person to us. And the funny thing is, if there is a queue outside the country, be it a queue to buy tickets or queuing at a place to eat, and there is someone who just has to play nyelak definitely ascertained that an Indonesian citizen.

The danger of our habit to wait for its absence could spread into the wider community. Now, it seems most of the people we were tired of waiting for the arrival of welfare that aspired in the 1945 Preambule. The level of dissatisfaction and burnout would be the condition that affects social frustration can result in an explosion that would be impacting positive and negative.

The positive is that if such enormous energy that can be bestowed by our society in the form of creativity-the creativity that gave birth to independence of the public. Public do not have to wait for a government initiative - known very slow - to change their own condition. Apparently this is only one reason why today our country continues to survive in the midst of dilapidation of the nation.

Downside is that our society feels clogged and there is no proper distribution, such as through social groups such as NGOs or CBOs, they will easily manipulated people or certain groups to achieve their political goals. There will be many acts of anarchism and the increase in crime.

Efforts to warn the government it deserves to be continued. However, while we are demanding what is wrong if every layer of society still continues to do the best in their respective fields that they do. The journey of our nation into the future will be increasingly difficult, and needed to wait for a positive culture for together we can achieve the noble ideals of the founders of this Republic.
