Tendency to be Arrogant

I notice.

People think (at least Indonesian), if they already went abroad, they have different league with those who hasn't. They (count me in) believe, if they already went abroad, they have seen the whole world.

Human, undeniable, has lot of tendency to be arrogant. But this kind of arrogant is very weird. It seems irresistible. Not just because they already visited one city in Europe, they seems already visit whole place in Europe. Or they even believe that Europe is as the same as Africa.

Same case happen for Phd or Master. Not because they become so great in one subject, they seems understand about everything. I bet they aren't. Maybe it's all life about: SPESIFICATION.

Human is so weak with this tendency. The first sin of man is also this. Tendency to be arrogant. Eve want to be the same as God, so that she ate that forrbidden-fruit.

So how to resist this tendency? Should we give up? No we shall not. We must give the best to be better each in everyday. That's why we have friends like. To warn us up, if something bad come to us.

(I can't even understand why I write this)

Dear cuy,

You know lah, its not easy for indonesian to go abroad. Arrogancy for them is higher than they in the village. People in the vilage (in indonesia, right now of course) maybe still have arrogancy when they can settle in the city like Jakarta.
In conclusion, it's all about wealthy :p

Tapi ya itu... kenapa juga bisa gitu...
