circle of life

yet another roller coaster week.
ups and downs in all sort of way.

from football results (by that, I solely mean Arsenal) to works to personal state of discipline.

well.. Saturday was over about half an hour ago.
so, it's officially April now!
that's FAST!

met with hadi, ono, and rimbun for dinner.
hadi is now holding pink IC.
I am happy for him now that he gets to become a citizen in this country that he calls home.

But at the same time I feel sad that he has become disilussioned with Indonesia to a point that he doesn't want his kids to be associated with Indonesia in any way.
It's sad that he never feels welcome in the country where he was born.

And as much as I love my country,
I can symphatize with people like hadi.
Especially those who experience first hand the '98 riot.
And no.. you can't just tell them 'it was all in the past' in the name of harmony.

It takes Jesus to heal this nation.
It takes Jesus to reconcile these people.
And it takes us, God's children, to intercede for this nation.

I so believe that.. God is on the move.

Hmm..

si mahasiswa NTU yg bunuh diri itu denger2 namanya david. sigh.. mgkn final year presssure was too much to him. jadi inget masa2 kerjain final year project, tinggal 3 bulan dan gua maseh blank. untung ngga masuk berita ky dia. life is a funny thing. well since there is a chance that this may not be a simple suicide, lets not assume so. maybe there's a truth behind this. duh.. jd inget kalo di conan trus dia bilank, "ini bukan bunuh diri.. ini adalah kasus pembunuhan!" jadi serasa mao jadi detektip -_-

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...
