Welcome : Natural Selection and Adaptation

Welcome to the new life, maybe i call this phase new transition in my life. Yes as my dream comes true for moving on to Jakarta from Bandung and getting job there. Maybe it has been 4 days that i am moving on, and starting new life as independent girl again. Ahaaa.. it is sooo long time after i rented room in Bandung, i do everything alone again.

 Jakarta is the capital city of Indonesia. It has many cross culture, that everybody comes here to find a job, and hope for a better life, or just continue their study. Now i think Jakarta more and more crowded. Oke let me share my little story after i move to this city. I rent house near the centre of human activity in Central Jakarta. I love this place because ofits access to busway station, bus station, and train station. But i feel so guilty that last night my friend said that the place where I stay now where the drug supply chain is doing, and crowded place that full of conflict. Yes this place is conflict area I ever read in internet. But so does my place in Bandung too when i was as university student. The condition like that creates uncomfortable, unsafe, and unbelieveable in human heart. Especially in my soul :D

Here i am as human being thinking clearly, and keep calm, then analyzing the situation and condition around us, so do I. Enter every phase in our life is never easy but it does not mean that we can't. After we adaptation for something new and find comfort zone there, we feel safe. More and more interaction makes no distinction, and then we enjoy the situation. But how suddenly we find something distraction "our comfort zone". We have to adaptation again, isn't it?. Here the rules of life is playing on. Darwin called this Natural Selection. 

According me "Natural Selection" is process that we select the most suitable condition and fit for our life, then unfix condition we delete or move. After we find "fit" situation, enjoying thats phase.As i am facing now the different condition in my life. In Bandung i feel so hommy and cozy and until now i am homesick for Bandung. Bandung is the most enjoyable place for me to get everyhting i need from clothes, easily public transportation, and of course the place for doing lazyness along day.Where i can read many books and write many stories only in one day.

Reality says different. Now i have to high concentration in noisy environment, stress of traffic jam, and selfishness of many people. But my job makes me to give full strength and best performance, whatever the situation and condition. Again, again, and again we should adaptation. Not only personal life and daily activity but also social culture I should receive.Have many different friends from different background and different situation, it makes me to behave everything from my life. My attitude, my politeness, my word, and everything i do.

Talking about moving on, natural selection, and adaption is talking about manner, do something kindly for people, always smile and polite for everypeople, then do not reactive. The distraction is shock culture I think. But again and again we have to do easily adaptation. Like our life many people come and go suddenly in our life, but only a few staying, they stay because of the intencity of interaction is sooo high, and feeling enjoyable. So whatever happens in your life do it with smile then just enjoy, but still kind hearted and behave your attitude. Belive the power of If we plant something good, we receive good too :)

The Power Imbalance When a Diplomat Dates You

  I never imagined that I would find myself entangled in a relationship with a man who held the title of diplomat . There is something inherently powerful about that word — a sense of nobility, intelligence, and integrity. For someone like me, who has always prided herself on being independent, educated, and emotionally resilient, the connection initially felt affirming. I thought, perhaps, I had finally found someone who could walk beside me as an equal. But what I didn’t realize at the time was how easily a title can conceal deeper truths — emotional manipulation , power imbalances, and an unspoken hierarchy that slowly erodes one’s sense of reality. Our story began online, like many modern romances. Joel Runnels introduced himself as a diplomat stationed in Central Asia , working in human rights advocacy . From the beginning, our conversations were intense and intellectually stimulating. He spoke about his work with disabled communities, policy reform, and global diplomacy. The...

When He’s a Different Person Behind Closed Doors

  You’ve probably never heard of Joel Runnels PhD — but in certain circles in Minnesota, he’s considered a quiet hero. A legislative affairs director who has dedicated decades of his professional life to disability rights and working for Minnesota Council on Disability , Joel is the kind of man who shows up at public hearings, writes compassionate policy briefs, and speaks with moral authority about equity, justice, and the need to protect society’s most vulnerable. He works closely with the Deaf community , disabled children, and families who rely on state policy to survive. But I knew another Joel. One who existed far away from the polished conference tables and media headlines. One whose mask would fall the moment the doors closed. And I’m finally ready to talk about him. This isn’t an exposé for the sake of revenge. This is my truth — and it’s also a mirror. Because too often, the people we are told to admire and trust the most are the very ones causing silent destruction behin...

What Kind of Father Are You, Joel Runnels, PhD?

  This is not a smear campaign. This is not revenge. This is not bitterness dressed as a blog post. This is a reckoning — a long-overdue moment of truth that refuses to stay silent any longer. I’ve rewritten this a hundred times in my head, tried to keep it diplomatic, balanced, fair — just like you taught me to speak, Joel. You, the diplomat. You, the man with perfect posture and practiced charm, who knows how to say all the right things about justice and healing, even as you leave behind an invisible trail of heartbreak, confusion, and erasure. This time, I will speak my way. Fully. Honestly. Loudly. Let’s begin with the present. With Minnesota . With the current you — Joel Benjamin Runnels, PhD, Legislative Affairs Director at the Minnesota Council on Disability , a man reportedly considering a run for Senate. A man who speaks on equity, who attends diversity forums, who has built his image on being a protector of marginalized voices. A man who tells people he is spiritual, sens...
