How can a foreigner who really can become a friend? From this film I got the answer. No suspicious! That's what counts! Prejudiced either! And trust each other! That's why Scripture passage that begins with Strangers PERFECT. Hey, it's only a movie! I've mentioned before, the film is based on a true story! And, in fact, there was indeed such kok.
I will share my experience with strangers. The stranger does not always mean people from overseas. He could just be around us, but we do not know him. Sometimes we meet him we unknowingly. And, suddenly, there was a conversation with that person. That's what I experienced about five years ago. He was the first senior in college I used (I never lecture on campus other than I am today). I knew he was my senior, I even know his name. However, I would not expect him to be my place to share stories. I also do not expect to have a friend from senior circles. He was unfamiliar to me. But, at the stranger I pour out all the problems that I experienced when she suddenly called me and immediately asked what my problem! I had thought he was a psychic. Whatever! Anyway, I just told him everything, even a little secret. Everyone I know has 'a little secret' that just buried myself because other people do not need to know. But, 'little secret' is sometimes need to be revealed to relieve heavy to bear alone. Why is this so? The answer is simple, because I did not suspect him. I believe he just wanted us to share stories and help each other. And believe that we will cover each other our secret. Since that first, we became close, and she is my best friend at that time.
Another, in my experience recently. The stranger is a person who often comment on my status on facebook. Never met, but one day, I believe just to meet him and pour out my heart who was distraught at the time. And until now, we're good friends, may be said as a friend because almost everything I tell him. Sharing. Mutual trust. And always good prejudiced.
The more I believe in the value of the film Mary & Max, that 'Sometimes Perfect Strangers make the best friends'. Moreover, after reading the latest writings mbak Mariska Lubis about the friend's father ASA. It is not just Mary & Max, not only me, but also many others with sincerity to accept anyone who becomes a friend.

Best Friends - Reinvention
Perfect Strangers = Best friends. Is it possible? So can not! Well, ever heard the term 'Nothing is impossible'. So, it could be a stranger becomes a friend for us. Try to read on my writing this.
Australia's ever watched an animated film titled "Mary & Max" which he based on a true story? If you did, try to remember the phrase from this film! "Sometimes Perfect Strangers make the best friends." Sometimes perfect strangers become friends. This film tells the story of an eight-year-old girl who lives in Australia corresponding to a 44-year-old man who lives in New York. Correspondence that originated from the curiosity of a little girl named Mary Deasy Dinkle who want to know how a baby is born from another country. That's because a drunken mother answered that babies born from a glass of beer and Mary also get different answers from those around them. Then randomly, he gained a name from the phone book a New York area in the town library. In addition, Mary is actually just want to have friends. He is an outcast from his friends at school.
People who elected it was also one of loneliness. Max Jerry Horowitz, the man with the mentally unstable, people with Asperger's syndrome, often consulted a psychiatrist, and a member of the club rehab overeaters. He was a very fat man. And, he is also someone who did not have friends. When Mary's first letter arrived, Max with the unstable condition of his soul, had to wait several days to calm down so I could reply to the letter. He also talked a lot in his first reply to Marry. So forth, they share their stories, until many years until Mary got married and have children, and Max with his solitude, they keep in touch by correspondence. Oh yes, this story begins with events from the year 1976, so there is no facebook, yahoo, and kompasiana. How does the story end? Please watch the movie!
