'Don't worry, it will work out somehow!'

That's the trademark quote from Asakura Yoh, a lazy and carefree protagonist from Shaman King.
Yeah.. I draw inspiration from anime or manga a lot.
Unfortunately, there isn't many good series to watch nowadays.

Yoh's statement is something I hold onto dearly.
And Darvin always remember this one too :D
Every time we discuss something difficult, he will bring up this principle.

I think that's another simple truth about life.

Somehow.. no matter how unlikely it seems,
things will work out.. somehow.

Weeks ago, we were on the verge of seeing a friend getting into marriage that could potentially ruin his life.
Bukan kawin ama nyi roro kidul sih....
But if you know the story, it was almost as amusing.

Maybe it's not wise to say too much about his story.
Simply put, everyone of us were desperate.

At that time I could only tell his sister..
don't give up on him. yet I didn't know what to do either.
Nothing but prayer.

But somehow.. in ways we couldn't understand,
he woke up to his sense days before his wedding.
Only God knows. I suppose that's the power of prayer =)
Or more accurately.. that's God for you.

There are many more difficult situations in life.
Yet the principle doesn't change.

Father

I am reading the book "Wild at Heart". One of the most striking points that the author made was that of how many, if not almost all, men are most severely wounded by their own father. You would have thought that your dad will be the one who believes in you when everyone else is doubting you. You expect him to do so. Coz when he does, you know that it ain't matter even if the rest are against you. So when it turns out that he is siding with those who doubt you. It hurts the most. It kills off your hope. It strips you off your courage and belief to be a real man. Because the man who is suppose to show you how to be a real man, the one whose approval matters the most.. does not side with you. He loves you.. yes. But a father's role is not simply to love and nurture. He is more than just that. He is your assurance, stronghold, strength. He leads you into adventure, he fights with you side by side, he shows you how to rescue a beauty. When your father of flesh and blood ca...

journal: a little update

wow I am actually back to this blog. between Apr 27 2018 and now.. what has happened? I officially proposed to my girlfriend (wah.. trust me you gonna miss that word), got married, and.. became a dad. yeah.. all in a matter of less than 2 years. now when you consider the fact that in 2015 I would not have the slightest idea how things would turn out, it just goes to show how life changes in a blink. How is married life? Well.. I am one of those who has pretty pragmatic view when it comes to marriage. I have seen enough to know that relationship is messy. So.. I must say marriage has been way way better than my expectation hah.. For example.. I knew that my wife is a smart woman. I knew some of her shortcoming too.. (and there are some I didn't know till we got married, of course) BUT... here's the big bonus. I didn't know she can be that adorably funny in her own way. Not funny like a standup comedian funny but.. you know.. she makes me laugh. Trust me....
