Sepenggal Pesan dari Argentina


Facebook menjerumuskanku pada dunia maya. Mengenalkanku pada banyak orang meski sebenarnya tak ku kenal dalam nyata. Hingga saat ini aku memiliki teman lebih dari 3000 di Facebook. Aku hanya mengenal mereka secara nyata tak lebih dari sepertiga jumlah pertemanan di Facebook, selebihnya entah siapa mereka. Sebelum aku punya akun Facebook aku hanya memiliki teman tak jauh-jauh dan masih dalam lingkup satu kabupaten (saja). Munculnya Facebook memperkenalkanku dengan orang yang tinggal di luar Jawa, bahkan luar Indonesia. Banyak teman Facebookku yang berasal dari luar negeri seperti Thailand, India, Filiphina, Arab, Inggris, Argentina, Madagaskar, dll. Sungguh dunia maya memang mendekatkan yang jauh dan kadang menjauhkan yang dekat. Sering kali aku dan mereka chating lewat Facebook meskipun bermodal google translet. Kali ini aku dibikin kaget plus  terharu gara-gara dikirimi pesan lewat FB sama nenek-nenek yang tinggal di desa kecil, di Argentina pula. Ini nih pesannya.. ASLI!

Dear Endah! Thank you so much for accepting me as a FB friend some time agoi! I' m an artist from Argentina. I draw and paint watercolour mainly, but I also do mosaics. I live in a very small village in the mointains. Although I am in contact with other artists in Argentina, I like being in touch with those of other countries. Today I would like to make a comment: My portrait of my daughter Laura, which you can see at my FB page, was selected to be exhibited at the Museum of Art in Santa Fe, Argentina, and there is a contest of the Public going on to vote for the drawing they like most. So, if you would be so kind to have a look at the drawings that are exhibited and if you like mine, would you please put your vote in? that would be just great. I copy the page below. When you open it, you have to go down to the drawings. Look for the portrait of a young girl with a cap on her head and earphones around her neck. It's called: MI HIJA LAURA. Below it, where it says VOTAR you just have to click. Thank you so much for taking the trouble and your time to do it! Best wishes from this very small village La Cumbrecita, in the Province of Córdoba, in Argentina,
