This disaster shocked everyone in this world.

Japan previously safe and peaceful, suddenly destroyed!

Though we know that Japan is a very good country which is able to control this situation better than other countries..

It's still a very big disaster.

There is no one who wants to know this disaster!

Well..

Almost everyone in this world has known about earthquake-prone in Japan, and..

Do you want to know why the state of Japan prone to earthquakes even tsunami?

The Japanese archipelago is located in an area where several continental and oceanic plates meet. This is the cause of frequent earthquakes and the presence of many volcanoes and hot springs across Japan. If earthquakes occur below or close to the ocean, they may trigger tidal waves (tsunami).

Knowing that disaster is not always easy.

We must be sad because of this news.

Even if there's someone who lives there,

whether it's our family, our friends or our partner..

What can we do for now is only hope.

Hope all people there feel safe now.

Hope all things there will be okay as soon as possible.

Hope God let us know that the disaster He gave to this world is a part of His power!

We should always remember that our lives depend on God :)

Do not ever regret with this problem.

Though it's a very big problem, a very hard problem..

Just believe that we have something that we can learn..

Let's PRAY FOR JAPAN!

Ganbatte! 頑張って!

Valentine’s Day is prohibited? Who cares?

In this sweet morning, 
when I woke up from my dream,

Suddenly I got 'one' great message for sure from my friend!

“Today is Valentine’s Day.
Don’t ever celebrate the Valentine’s Day, because actually the meaning of Valentine’s Day is from the death of a pastor named Valentinus on February 14^th.”

Well, thank you very much for my beloved friend.

I really appreciated this information because I got a new knowledge from this news.

But… Wow!

Actually I also screamed in my heart, it really surprised me…

Is it important for others to know?

What does it mean?

It means there is no chocolate, there is no flower, there is no gift, or even there is no LOVE?

I believe everyone needs LOVE.

Who is the one who needn’t love?

Is it me? I will answer… NO! I perfectly need it.

Is it you? I believe you will also answer the same thing like me, YOU perfectly need it.

Is it my friend? Of course my friend also needs it. My friend is also a human.

We need LOVE everyday.

Why don’t we have a positive side for a while?

For me, the name of Valentine’s Day is only a name.

And the date of February 14^th is also a part of 365 days.

It’s one of the ways for us to spread our love to others…

Actually I still have another side about Valentine’s Day…

Why should we care about the death of the pastor named Valentinus?

May I say that Valentine’s Day is as Merry’s Day or David’s Day or… any others name that you want!

Because the main point here is only about how do we spread our love to others?

Sometimes we feel shy to give a sweet chocolate or

Even a bunch of flowers to someone that you love, you care…

You just don’t know at what time you would like to give it…

Waiting for their birthdays? It’s quite long time for sure.

Valentine’s Day? Cute! What a good idea!

It’s a good time for everyone to share their loves to others, I think.

I am sorry to know that the fact of Valentine’s Day is the death of the pastor.

But… I am happy to know, we have a universal day for spreading our love to others in this cute day…

Valentine’s Day! ooh, no no no..

Merry’s Day! lol

Yes! A chocolate day, a sweet day, wow… yummy!

You know? Even I just know that my friends just become a new couple today.

Valentine’s Day is also the reason for everyone to use this special moment to say ‘I Love U’

So we are able to see new couples in this world.

Well, the last message is…

Love your life in every single day!

Not only at Valentine’s Day for sure!

*Happy Valentine’s Day*

Being Si Pitung 2011 - Apologize Me!

Si Pitung? Who doesn't know him?

A thief who gave loot for poor people..

But..

Si Pitung 2011? Is it true? Does he come back again? 

Well, not at all.. 

It's ME, actually . .

What? Really? Are you doing the same thing like him? Being a thief?

Hm, I wouldn't admit that I am an absolutely thief.

So, let me tell you the true thing..

Today, I have a big meeting in my college.

There.. we have a lot of snacks for break time.

At the end of the session..

I saw a lot of snacks were still there.

I saw some biscuits and candies there.

No one ate it. 

I know that some of my friends who become lodgers will take it home.

But, I tried to take it by myself before them,

because I thought that giving it to beggar was more important.

I tried to ask my friend to take it some for me.

He did it well.

He didn't even know about my plan.

Though I knew that it's really not good to take something that it's not yours, but..

I tried to be brave for this situation.

Though if someone know about this, I will look like a thief. 

I didn't care actually.

Others need it so much.

My friends who become lodgers have enough foods for their life.

We are more lucky than beggars, friends..

So I've given those snacks to an old woman, a little kid, a street singer, etc.

I often see poor people *beggars on the bus, at terminal Senen, and so on.

Why didn't I be honest?

Hm, being an honest person sometimes is not a good thing for me.

It's impossible for me to tell all of my friends about this plan, right?

I believe that it will make me look like an arrogant person.

No No No..

No one loves if others think that he/ she is an arrogant person.

Though, I believe if I ask my friends to take that snacks to give it to some beggars, to poor kids, they will give me a permission..
I know that all of my friends have a good heart.

They care each other.

And I didn't want to disturb them by asking for permission to do this *like Si Pitung

So here..

I just want to apologize..

Yes!

Apologize me, my friends, my seniors..

I have done a bad thing.

I have taken some snacks without telling you.

I pray to God for you guys!

So that you can get His blessing..
Because of your kindness
For giving me a permission to give those snacks to others who don't have a good life like us.

God Bless You  (^^,)/

Thank you..

Let's care others by giving a little thing  :)
