The story starts from the song Mas kumambang. It is the story when the baby Nawung is still in her mother's womb. The true love from parents would create the true essence of life of the coming baby. Song of Mijil is when the baby has born on earth. The role of parents is very important in this stage. The influence of her father's simple teaching through the story of wayang (traditional puppet stories), has brought her as a humble and honest Javanese girl. Song of Sinom. It is telling how the teenager Nawung found easy ways to study many things. She shows how she studied English, Japanese, playing guitar, singing, drawing, writing and more, without money. This is the stage when someone is curious and ambitious in learning anything in this life. The song of Asmaradana. It is about her beautiful platonic triangle love story and a moment of her broken heart.  More Javanese songs in the story are telling about how she faces her good times and bad times in her life in reaching the most important goal in life according to the Javanese philosophy. It is Manunggaling kawula lan Gusti, when the body and the Great Spirit within her inner self blended. All of her life lessons and her effort to keep being good to other, to herself and her awareness of her life lead her to her goal in life. "Through this novel, we can learn and comprehend the Javanese philosophy in a personal way. Through the eyes of a child, the writter attempts at internalizing the Javanese wisdom, which she believes, is priceless and timeless. This novel is also a bold effort to open an intercultural dialogue to build civilization which is based on the grand values in Indonesia.

        Blue Sky Kingdom

        An Epic Family Journey to the Heart of the Himalaya

        by Bruce Kirkby

        One morning at breakfast, while gawking at his phone and feeling increasingly disconnected from family and everything else of importance in his world, it strikes writer Bruce Kirkby: This isn’t how he wants to live. Within days, plans begin to take shape. Bruce, his wife Christine, and their two children – seven-year-old Bodi and three-year-old Taj – will cross the Pacific by container ship, then travel onward through South Korea, China, India, and Nepal aboard bus, riverboat, and train, eventually traversing the Himalaya by foot. Their destination: a thousand-year-old Buddhist monastery in the remote Zanskar valley, one of the last places where Tibetan Buddhism is still practiced freely in its original setting.   In this refuge, where ancient traditions intersect with the modern world, Kirkby discovers ways to slow down, to observe and listen, and ultimately, to better understand his son on the autism spectrum – to surrender all expectations and connect with Bodi exactly as he is.   Recounted with wit and humility, Blue Sky Kingdom is an engaging travel memoir as well as a thoughtful exploration of modern distraction, the loss of ancient wisdom, and the challenges and rewards of intercultural friendships.
