Satu dari tiga pemenang hadiah Nobel Perdamaian 2011 adalah wanita dari Yaman bernama Tawakkul Karman. Di usianya yang baru 32 tahun ia menjadi salah satu peraih Nobel termuda sepanjang sejarah. Aktivis yang juga wartawati ini menjadi perhatian dunia atas perlawanannya pada rezim Presiden Ali Abdullah Saleh.
Tawakkul dikenal juga sebagai "Wanita Besi" atau "Ibu Revolusi" karena kegigihannya menegakkan demokrasi di negaranya. Sebagai wartawati, ia memperjuangkan kebebasan pers yang jujur tidak dikekang oleh penguasa. Sebagai perempuan, ia mendorong agar kaum perempuan lebih berperan dalam kegiatan pembangunan sehingga sejajar dengan kaum laki-laki.
Ia tak takut dengan ancaman penjara dan kematian atas gerakan yang ia gagas. Karena itu, keberanian, kejujuran, dan gerakan perdamaian yang ia jalankan telah menarik para juri Nobel untuk menempatkannya menjadi salah satu dari tiga pemenang Nobel Perdamaian 2011 bersama Presiden Liberia Ellen Johnson-Sirleaf dan aktivis Liberia Leymah Gbowee.
Tekanan berat sering kali membuat kita tak berani berbuat jujur. Tekanan berat itu bisa apa saja. Bisa berupa ancaman dari penguasa, penjahat, keadaan, atau hal lain, bisa juga datang dari ambisi yang membabi buta.
Karena ingin cepat kaya dan untung besar, misalnya, ada pihak-pihak yang mengelabui konsumen dengan menyebutkan hal yang tidak sebenarnya mengenai produk atau layanannya.
Karena ingin cepat kaya, ada pula orang yang berusaha mengelabui pemerintah, masyarakat, dan melakukan korupsi.
Intinya, ketidakjujuran sudah menjadi masalah sehari-hari.
Kita akan dengan mudah menemukan praktik-praktiknya di lingkungan kita.
Namun seberapa kecil pun suatu ketidakjujuran, tetap saja ketidakjujuran. Sebaliknya dengan kejujuran.
Ada kata-kata bijak yang menyebutkan bahwa
kejujuran adalah "mata uang" yang berlaku di mana-mana.
Dengan kejujuran, hidup kita akan terbebas dari perasaan waswas, takut, dan cemas.
Dengan kejujuran, kita akan menikmati kehidupan dengan tentram, damai, dan bahagia. Oleh sebab itu, mari biasakan berbuat jujur dalam keseharian kita.
Salam sukses, Luar Biasa!

Because they want to get rich quick and large profits, for example, there are those who deceive consumers by mentioning things that are not actually about products or services.
