Commas and Not Periods

A. Zamroni Sw.

Comma (https://thewritepractice.com) 

In all or at least nearly every language in the world, there is a punctuation mark called a comma (,). Commas are generally used to punctuate a pause or pause. A sentence that is interrupted or marked with a comma indicates that the sentence in question has not been completed or that there is still a continuation.

A comma is different from a period (.). A period is commonly used as a closing or ending sentence. A sentence that is given, affixed, or closed with a period indicates that the sentence in question has ended or ended permanently. To end permanently or permanently means that in whatever sense the sentence is no longer continuous or continues.

Symbolically a comma shows or implies that a thing or a process will still continue, while the period shows or implies that a thing or a process has ended. The comma means that the process only stops temporally (temporarily) as a pause, and then continues indefinitely. As long as a series of words (sentences) are marked with a comma, the sentence will still continue –– and will only stop if it is closed with a period.

A comma indicates a dynamic process, while a period indicates a static process. As a sign, the comma symbolizes "an ongoing process in all things (learning, experimenting, creating, thinking, worshiping, serving, seeking, innovating, and so on)". The comma does not know the word stop to continue to make improvements and improve quality and even if it stops, it is only done for a while as a pause or rest to take a breath or unwind, and then continue again.

The comma is a representation of human imperfection. The comma character, which represents a never-ending process, reflects what humans should do as imperfect creatures. Because it is full of shortcomings, weaknesses, and negligence, humans need to make a comma as a reference in taking action: continuously - without stopping or pausing only for a while - - introspection, pondering, learning, improving themselves, and doing things. anything else needed to minimize his stupidity, carelessness, silliness, and other bad things.

That's why this blog is entitled "Depends on a Comma". By taking that clause as the header, this blog tries to remind ourselves to endlessly do internal reflection in order to think and improve themselves in reducing all limitations, weaknesses and other deficiencies. Imperfection is an inherent human nature, so it takes endless effort to learn and improve oneself as its most important solutions.
