Ireland is the best country

Ireland just named to be the best country to live in the world. Its combination of increasing wealth and traditional value makes it to be the best place to live. The second is Switzerland and Norway in the third.

The other criteria are crime rate, health, freedom, family life, climate, political stability and security, gender equality and family and community life is all working very well.

I wonder where Indonesia is, maybe in the hundredth position, I couldn't find out. I imagine Indonesia is going to better and better soon, so we may enjoy what it calls prosperity.... When would it be? Soon my friend... very soon... :-)

Thank u Lord

I just thank you to my Lord, Jesus Christ, for the last week. The big problem came and I fell apart, I didn't know what to do, I just felt so weak and wanted to run away.

God, speaks through this problem, I cried because He did that in order to ask me to His path of life again, I have been away for too long, I did too many sins that I thought He will never forgive me... But my supervisor told me another point of view, I remember then of how He love me and keep me even tough I neglect Him. Oh Lord... Please forgive me...

I suddenly to feel hunger of His Words and the Gospel, I read them and I feel strength and smile start to roll on my face, I know that my health, my breath and my life He is the one who keep them all. Through pain and laugh He is always beside me, waiting for me to turn to Him patiently and now I know... that to believe and to feel Him is surrender, and believe He will do the rest and I got it... I can do my activities although the problem still lies here... but I know my God, my Saviour can do it all... He is my mountain of rock where I stand still.

Thank you father. Amen.

George W. Bush was in Indonesia

A week before the American number one came here, I watched TV showed hundreds of people protested denying his presence in Indonesia, they screamed and burnt the American flag. I wondered if they really knew what they were doing. Their face 'told' me they were asked by somebody else or paid them to yell on the street in the name of religion, what a pathetic...! I could see that they actually didn't know what was the purpose of it.

I only imagined myself as a host and a leader from my neighbor pay a visit, well... why shouldn't I welcome him home and treat him like my other guests, whereas in the other hand I know that I depend on his country's help to develop (read: fix) my poor house here and to feed my 240 millions 'children'...

I was very sorry to see those stupid demonstration, and finally I had a better idea, watched a sport program and had a nice sleep...

When love each other fades away

When I attended the seminar about the end of the world in my church, and how the world is going to be, I just kept silent imagining myself in the future. Poverty, lack of foods, drought, and killing are already dominated 1/2 part of the world. War and dead, and nobody cares to each other. What are we going to be? Only our heart can tell the truth... Not far away, just around us... We can see bad examples day by day...

I notice that people seems to be busy for their selves, I bet it is not wrong at all, but care for others are deteriorated, they tend to hostile to strangers. I saw that kind of thing in the junctions when I drove my car, I looked around, I saw a driver shouted and mocked the other driver just because his car is too close to his; on the other day, when I got in Jakarta, Indonesian Capital, I saw a man took off one car's mirror on the street, everybody was silent, even the owner of the car who was there did nothing, all silent just the sound of the auto's exhaust.... 'Silent Night'.... :-(

Nobody feels secure, oh God... Please forgive us... Please keep us in Your arms always... Amen...

Britney Spears worries about her sex video

I just read a news that Mr. Kevin Federline is going to sell his sex video with Britney... Whew... :) for the price millions of Dollars. The video itself was taken in Beverly Hills Hotel, the place they had honeymoon.

You know, I think he married Britney for one reason, money...! But I can't blame him alone, Britney herself should have seen the truth about him, what he really wants from her. Many people say that he just wants two things, sex and money. He sings but fails, nobody buys his concert tickets recently, although it has been set to lower price, but nobody wants to see him singing :-D

Britney has asked her attorney to negotiate about the sex video with Kevin, but he also has the right of video...

If only she was wise enough... to differentiate between good guy and a serpent, but it's too late now...

Late for work on tuesday

I woke up late this morning, I woke up at 07.00 a.m, whew... I jumped from my bed knowing that I would be late for work. I wondered why I dreamt around 05.00 a.m, somebody woke me up by shouting out loudly and said: " hey wake up... " but I replied: " Later on..." and the voice was over and over again, but I always said later, that's it... I finally woke up at 07.00 a.m... :-)

What irritated me the most was, the traffic jam, I held up for an hour just because there was a bus stalled and the giant bus made the traffic terrible.... I hate tuesday.... :-(

Everybody I noticed was hopeless, they knew they will be late, like me...
When I got in the office at 9.30 a.m, I saw everybody was smiling at me, one of them said," What an early day for you today to the office...". I just smiled and said," Thank you my lady......."

Time to work again

We have a national holiday for a week here in Indonesia, started from October 21 - October 31, it is Idul Fitri day, Moslem Holiday, a kind of celebration after a month of fasting.

What I can tell you, everybody goes back to their home town, and brings foods and goods to give to their relatives and familes. This ritual is called 'mudik'. I watched TV showing that almost 40% of them riding motorcycles. Some of them 4 people on the bike, a husband, a wife, and two children, it seemed so dangerous that even if a mosquito touched them, they could fell down... :-D

I myself just stayed at home, doing some house works and I really enjoy my spare time, relaxing after hectic working days, and of course play some games... what a heaven...

Today, is the day of going back to work, and it took so haaardddd to wake up this morning, my eyes just didn't want to open, and I forced myself to take a bath at 06.00 a.m, what a hard time... :-D

Hope tomorrow is getting better :-P
