Si RI 3

selagi melintas di Sudirman tadi, tiba2 ada konvoi lewat, tau2 di antara mobil2 itu ada sebuah sedan item dgn plat nomor RI 3.
Jd mikir.. siapa ya RI 3? Kalo RI 1 itu SBY dan RI 2 itu Mr Budi. Siapa RI 3?
Tebak2 si.. jgn2 si instagram star, Ibu Ani.
Ternyataa... Benar! (thank you Kaskus for the info) Hrsnya td gua ngintip2 dikit yah.
Kali aja beliau lg selfie.

Ga lama liat lg sebuah mobil sedan item dgn plat : RI 5.
Nah..kalo Ksatria bergitar yg menang jd capres.. mgkn RI 3-6 semua dipake istri presiden ya.
tp stidaknya utk saat ini.. prsiden kita masi monogami.
jd RI 5 itu.. yg pake ternyata adalah.. ketua MPR.

si RI 5 pengawalannya sih minim bgtt kalo dibanding sm RI 3. Ampir ky pejabat biasa aja.
jd mikir.. apa uda segitu ngga pentingnya ketua MPR ya di jaman reformasi ini?
soalnya di jaman sma dulu.. kynya MPR itu kan lembaga tertinggi negara gitu.
kalo di UUD psl 1 ayat 2 dulu.. bunyinya "kedaulatan adalah di tgn rakyat dan dilakukan sepenuhnya oleh MPR."

ternyata.. ayat itu pun sudah berubah.
MPR uda bukan lembaga tertinggi. dan role nya jg uda berubah byk sejak trakhir kali gua UAN taon 99.
jd pengen beli buku UUD edisi terbaru.
kynya uda lost bgt aja sama system demokrasi kita. org UUD sm Pancasila aja uda ga paham ky apa latest edition nya.
Lah gimana bs membela pancasila dan uud kalo isinya aja ngga ngerti ya.

Spt hal nya pemilu caleg kmrn.
bygin kita mesti research dulu di mlm seblum pemilu utk tau mau milih siapa.
pdhl notabene mrk ini kan wakil rakyat. koq bisa wakil daerah kita sendiri.. kita ngga tau apa2 ttg mrk?
kita cuman kenal mrk lewat poster2 di jln (yg mana itu cuman nunjukin kalo si caleg punya duid buat marketing, bkn bahwa dia dikenal rakyat).
gmn caleg2 ini bs jd penyalur aspirasi kita.. jgn kata nyalurin aspirasi, kenal kita aja kaga -__-"

hm.. ini bkn salahin siapa2. tp jd mikir.. apa uda bnr sistem demokrasi kita?
dan apakah media bother utk educate masyarakat ttg dasar negara kita? ato kasi unbiased report atas caleg2 yg kita punya?
ya jelas ngga. kecuali kalo si caleg happen to have affair ky si farhat.
sygnya begitu.

utk temen2 yg cinta mati sama gubernur blusukan kite,
ato temen2 yg ngedukung si om partai muka garuda..
lepas dr usaha kita utk credit atau discredit capres yg satu atau yg lain..
gua prcaya Tuhan lah yg punya otoritas utk mengangkat atau menurunkan pemimpin negara ini.
kalo liat manusianya aja.. gua yakin siapapun yg kita dukung.. dia ngga sebersih yg kita pikir.

this is a fallen world, a flawed nation, with a morally corrupt people.
by all means, use our voting right wisely. and in any case, use it.
but.. let us not repeat Israelites' mistake.
They had the Almighty YHWH with them.. yet they asked for a king.
They thought a king would make them a better nation.
Now.. whoever that wins, he will be in my prayer.
But.. as far as our nation's hope is concerned..
I suppose the key is still that well known verse from 2 Chronicles.

Then if my people who are called by my name will humble themselves and pray and seek my face and turn from their wicked ways, I will hear from heaven and will forgive their sins and restore their land.

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....
