Life

This is how i see life should be:

Take small steps to achieve your dream.
And never satisfied with what you got.

Acknowledge people who are always there when you need them,
and simply share your happiness with them.

Don't stressed out you life,
and just simply make a new family.

Gathered up your friends,
and make sure you're always be there for them.

Laughed out you stupidity with your friends,
and love your family.

Don't forget to make them proud,
and just remember that they were never leave you alone.

Live yourself,
enjoy yourself,
and do whatever you want to do.

Believe that dreams come true every day - because they do

Take a look at yourself in the mirror.
Who do you see looking back?
Is it the person you want to be?

Or is there someone else you were meant to be,
the person you should have been but fell short of?

Is someone telling you that you can´t or you won't?
Because you can.

Believe that love is out there.

Believe that dreams come true every day.
Because they do.

Sometimes happiness doesn't come from money or fame or power.
Sometimes happiness comes from good friends and family.
And from the quiet nobility of living a good life.

Believe that dreams come true every day.
Because they do.

Believe that dreams come true every day.
Because they do.

So take a look in that mirror and remind yourself to be happy,
because you deserve to be. Believe that.

And believe that dreams come true every day.
Because they do.

catatan akhir pemilu caleg - part 1

Hari untuk mencontreng caleg telah tiba, dan saya, seperti kebanyakkan masyarakat Indonesia pun ikut melaksanakan tugas negara ini. 5 menit untuk 5 tahun, itu kata Cokelat. Banyak hal yang bisa diambil dari pengalaman mencontreng kali ini, baik itu yang hal kecil maupun permainan besar dibalik pemilu caleg ini.

Ini sudah ke-3 kalinya saya ikut pemilu, and for the first time saya mengomel. Bukan, saya tidak mengomel karena nama saya tidak ada dalam daftar pemilih ataupun karena saya harus mengantri panjang hanya untuk mencontreng. Saya, seperti kebanyakan orang (yang saya tahu), mengomel karena besarnya kertas yang harus dibuka. It's too much. The paper was so big and for me, complecated. Mungkin saya berlebihan, mungkin. Tapi saya yakin banyak yang berfikiran sama.

Besarnya kertas tentu akan dikaitkan dengan banyaknya partai yang ikut pemilu tahun ini. Kalau tidak salah ada lebih dari 40 partai yang berpartisipasi. Come on guys. Segitu kita terpecah belahkah? Sampai sekarang saya masih tidak mengerti kenapa ada banyak partai. Ok. Saya mulai bicara ngawur. Niat saya dalam post ini adalah membahas masalah teknis.

Jadi tadi beberapa hal yang menganggu:
1. besarnya kertas.
2. kecilnya bilik untuk memilih.
3. ribet harus membuka dan melipat kembali kertas.
4. belum lagi takut salah masukin ke kotak yang mana.

Soal kecilnya bilik, sadar gak sih, kemungkinan orang lain untuk tahu pilihan kita tuh besar? Katanya harus rahasia, tapi kok bisa keiintip? Hehe..

Nah, berkaitan sama pemilihian hari ini, ada yang bisa menjelaskan fungsi DPD kah??

Potrait of Friend

"Portrait of a Friend"

I can't give solutions to all of life's problems, doubts, or fears.
But I can listen to you, and together we will search for answers.

I can't change your past with all it's heartache and pain,nor the future with its untold stories.
But I can be there now when you need me to care.

I can't keep your feet from stumbling.
I can only offer my hand that you may grasp it and not fall.

Your joys, triumphs, successes, and happiness are not mine;
Yet I can share in your laughter.

Your decisions in life are not mine to make, nor to judge;
I can only support you, encourage you,and help you when you ask.

I can't prevent you from falling away from friendship,from your values, from me.
I can only pray for you, talk to you and wait for you.

I can't give you boundaries which I have determined for you,
But I can give you the room to change, room to grow,room to be yourself.

I can't keep your heart from breaking and hurting,
But I can cry with you and help you pick up the pieces and put them back in place.

I can't tell you who you are. I can only love you and be your friend.
