Piano

I hope life is like playing a piano, where I can always go back to the part that I wanted. When it's up to me which part I want to play and leave behind those I don't like (or those I'm not good at). I can always stop and repeat from the start, where all the tunes were just a simple melody, yet beautiful to hear. Everything is calm and peaceful.

Unfortunately, it isn't. We have to go through all the parts and it doesn't care whether we feel like being dragged because our steps are just not fast enough to catch up the pace. And the saddest thing is, there are parts that I can't come back to, no matter how bad I want it. 

Well, nonetheless, I know at the end I have to finish the song. From the start to the end. I'm trying hard to keep up and I know mistakes are allowed. It's human and we can always improvise. It's better than stopping in the middle, giving up without even trying to reach the finish line.

I want to (and I will) play a divine melody.

The moment you feel like giving up...

How Great Thou Art

It was an amazing journey that one has to go through, moments that will never be forgotten and times that always stuck in one's head.

There was time to say hello, to force yourself to say that awkward 'hi', to spend time in that odd silence. But when it all started, just like a roller coaster, the starting part seems to be forever but when it gets exciting, time passes so fast. In just few seconds you realized you have reached the end. The ride's over. But well, in life, there's always another ride to go.

I've been spending these incredibly fast 4 years here and now it's a time to go. It has been a wonderful journey that has been a part of who I am. I've laughed, cried my eyes out, made mistakes (well, a lot of them), fell down, got back up, and learned. I've met amazing people with whom I can be who I really am. People that saw my strength when I can't, listened when I need ears to listen, or even just be there. I love every single moment that I've spent and there's nothing to regret.

The hard part is when you know it's not gonna be forever. Soon we have to choose our own path. Oh really, I'm gonna miss that long night chat, watching movies together, and all the joke we shared. I know it's not the end, it's just another beginning. Sadly, it won't be the same. But who knows, maybe we can meet on the other rides of life. Til that, we're going to walk our dreams. I believe, when we meet again, we'll be at the peak of different hills.

It's never been easy to say good bye. True story. But I know that I have a long way to go that He has planned it for me, and so do you. All that I can say now is thank you and thank You. Cause when I look back, the only thing I see is how great Thou art.

Now I'm in the queue of another ride. And yeah, I'm ready for that.

Godspeed everyone!

Vanity

Magic mirror on the wall, who is the fairest one of all?

Theme Park

It was for an art exhibition at Monophone 2011. I was inspired by my own personality (which is exactly "the bags keeper") every time my friends and I go to a theme park. I'm not calling myself a coward, but rather being wise in choosing thing that's worth my adrenaline. Some more, we are helping our "born to ride" friends by keeping their bags so they can go and have fun. What a good deed! Hahaha.

I got every reason to rejoice

Why should I be afraid?

For I am with Him, the one that can calm down the storm in a single word.

Why should I feel lonely?

For He will never leave me nor forsake me.

Why should I come in pretense?

For He sees me as I am through His grace, and find me righteous in the Son.

Why should I struggle?

For He is my perfect peace and rest.

Why should I blame myself?

For He never condemns me but justifies me in Him.

Why should I lack?

For He is my Provision, the Possessor of heaven and earth.

Why should I look down on myself?

For I am the child of the Lord Most High.

2011

What a great year ahead when the possessor of heaven and earth is with us. He surrounds us with His goodness and glory. He enlarges our path and put us on the top of the mountain. He shield us so that no weapons formed against will prosper. He is our supply and the prosperity itself. In Him I put my hope, my plans, my worry. Surely, goodness and mercy will hunt me down wherever I go.

And now I can rest upon His grace.







I believe in His words for it will not return void.
Thanks Dad.

Blend in?

We all have tried so hard to blend in, to be accepted. Well, I think people are not born to blend in. Finally I understand that idealism. Look around you. People who stand out leave footprints when they're gone, People who blend in make it too, but too bad the rain washes it.

People are different by their thought. They act, speak, behave differently because they think differently. And that sole gift is not there for nothing. Speak that up. Voice it. Everyone is born to stand out, not to blend in. That's why none of us are the same, so we can stand out and leave different foot prints. Or else, God would have created us all the same to make it easier, right?

A common thing could easily be replaced, yet the one of a kind is irreplaceable. And we are irreplaceable. Be brave to be you.
