the lemon and lemonade

Assalamualaikum
Har har har...
Why am I want to explain this so badly? Okay

There's a saying;
When people give you lemon, make a lemonade out of it
I understand the saying as to make good of something even if it is bad.
Turn the negative into positive.
Well.. is that right?
If I am wrong please forgive my laziness to do research about the meaning of the saying.

But actually i am the type of person who like to think whatever i want to believe.
stubborn person.
So who the lemon in my story?

It is an author named Syaz Johar.
I am not a die hard fan of him but he is the right person that i can refer about how to turn bad thing into good.
He, like a cliche action movie director, like to view horrible thing (like sex, crime and whatsoever) at the beginning of story.
Like the movie of Bohsia ,where we see the wild things before the characters repent or turn good at the end. Yeah, you see many kind of movie with that recipe, right?

So reading his work, I admit that some of them are like... make the woman reputation go into the lowest level. I hate it at first but until the end, the insult towards woman is actually make sense.
Maybe in the eye of some man, they only see woman as a fault, a low human creature so they don't respect them. Yes, it happen in the real world. You have to agree with him.
Kougar, an 'andartu' girl who turn miserable after she got raped, his young boyfriend just want an easy-relationship-without-responsibility, she got into forceful marriage just because she getting old, she had unhappy marriage that make her doing sex with her worker and at the end she barely escaped the marriage cage but have to endure the family,society sceptism about 'janda'. anyone doesn't agree with me that it can happen in real life? he bring the character to the lowest level, it must be he hate them. or actually he want to make us think why the prophet Muhammad s.a.w said that getting marriage is one of his sunnah? Because that is the nature of human, of woman that have to be protected by man. Feminism refuse the fact that woman need man (marriage) but can you see the effect? It is all begin in how a woman take care of herself. How is she covering her aurah, forbiding the wrongful relationship with man. She might be called 'kampung', 'so lame', 'kolot' but Allah rules do protect human.
Next in Tabu, about a fat woman with her own taboo about beautiful woman (a.k.a thin, fair skin) and also woman wearing scarf. She herself doesn't care if her boyfriend is a Negro guy and feels secure with him (as she think they suit each other well). I quit forget the whole story but most of the part, the woman critisizing about other woman. She look down on woman who wears scarf with tight clothes (skinnyjeans,legging). But she herself wearing skirts that looks like going to burst with her fat body. If you think that she has a problematic family (who not practicing Islam) then you're wrong. She has a typical mother who live in a village, with typical babbling mouth who always remind her to pray, to be a good woman. That story really make me think that actually most of the time we doing sins because of ourselves. It's like 80% depend on our decision to choose the life path and only 20% to other party.

See? Who says Fixi books are for a bunch of rebellious kid who does not know the boundary or literally a sex or crime book? These kind of story do make us scared of how the world can go crazy and out of our control. But at least these book speak of the truth, something realistic that can actually happen. It show the worst situation from our wildest imagination so we take precautions. It's better than a fantasy escapenism that bring you far from reality.

My advice, lemon is good for health. But too much of it can also cause you stomach ache. So take deliberately guys.
Till then bye =)
