world...
at the beginning of the year 2005
still hurt with last disaster
still crying with last report
still silent with their sins...
at the end of the year 2004
some countries lost their people
some people crying for their families
some leader standing behind the line of their sins...
we did it, but we're crying when we accept it
we never dare to know the result
we never realize that we wrong
God recognize it...
are we crying for our fault?
are we standing for something wrong?
are we fighting for ego?
God knows the best...

Singapore...
at the beginning of the year 2005.
Nothing changes, just a simple island-city-country with hi-tech devices all around.
With so many races.
I'm in the middle of the city, orchard road, road of mall, superb market road, like the night before.
In this atmosphere, i only can watch the variety of races from all around the world to shopping.
Last night i watched people celebrating new year's eve. From many races, with their own attitude.
In this atmosphere, i'm thinking, God, still with His creatures with their own mind in their own head.
how can i be the one who's so arrogant?
how can we be the one that sticked with our zero-minded?
i never realized before, how small we are...
we should think that we just a part of His creatures
now, how to keep our faith to God, that's the point...

Dear my Best Friend,
I do not write of love, I am no lover.
I do not write of beauty, I have no woman.
I do not write of gentleness but the human rudeness I see.
And my pleasures are all over,
so I do not try to write of pleasure, but only misery.
Favors? No, I am on my own.
I do not write of riches, I have none.
Or of life at court,
when I'm far from it and lonely in darkness.
I do not write of health, for I'm often ill.
I cannot write of France from a Roman hill.
Or honor? I see so little of that about.
I cannot write of friendship but only pretence.
I will not write of virtue, here in its absence.
Or knowledge or faith, in ignorance and doubt.
Nothing I can write for someone,
but I can write my admiration for you,
to be my best friend,
forever...

Why a nun can be covered from head to toe and
she's respected for devoting herself to God, but
when a Muslimah does that, she's considered
oppressed?
Mengapa seorang biarawati bisa tertutup dari
kepala hingga ujung jari kaki dan ia dihormati
karena membaktikan dirinya untuk Tuhan,
sedangkan jika seorang muslimah melakukannya, ia
sering dicap tertindas?
Why a Jew can grow a beard and he's just
practicing his faith, and when a Muslim does
that, he's an extremist?
Mengapa seorang Yahudi bisa memelihara
janggutnya dan ia dipandang melulu sedang
melaksanakan kepercayaannya, dan ketika seorang
Muslim melakukannya ia adalah seorang ekstrimis?
When a western woman stays at home to look after
the house and kids she's sacrificing herself and
doing good for the household, but when a Muslim
woman does so, she needs to be
liberated?
Jika seorang wanita barat tinggal di rumah dan
merawat rumah beserta anak-anaknya, ia dianggap
tengah berkorban dan berbuat baik untuk
rumahtangganya, tetapi jika seorang perempuan
Muslim melaksanakannya ia dianggap perlu
dimerdekakan?
Why is it that when a child dedicates himself to
a subject, he has potential, and when a child
dedicates himself to Islam, he is hopeless?
Mengapa jika seorang anak meraih keberhasilan
pada suatu disiplin ilmu, ia dianggap
berpotensi, tetapi jika ia membaktikan dirinya
pada Islam, ia dianggap tak ada harapan?
When a Christian kills someone, religion is not
mentioned, (i.e. Irlandia and the IRA) but when a Muslim
is charged with a crime, it's Islam that goes to
trial?
Ketika seorang Kristen membunuh seseorang, agama
tidak pernah disebut-sebut (contohnya Irlandia
dan teroris IRA), tetapi ketika seorang Muslim
dituduh dengan suatu tindakan kriminal, Islamlah
seolah-olah yang diadili?
But then again, why is it after all that, Islam
is still the fastest growing religion in the
world?
Tetapi kemudian, mengapa meskipun semua itu
terjadi, Islam tetap merupakan agama yang
berkembang tercepat di dunia?
- a muse from my friends that really have faith
I never hesitate about my religion and faith
I never thought that i have such a bad faith
But something always runs through my head..
Does everybody believe what i believe?

Pernah berpikir semua berada di tempat yang salah?
Apapun, siapapun, kemanapun itu semua salah
Satu hari tanpa ada yang ada terlihat benar
Bahkan kita pun menyalahkan diri kita sendiri dan keadaan
Satu hari penuh semua terlihat samar
Ada sesuatu yang perlu direnungkan dan dibahas
Sesuatu yang salah yang harus di benarkan
Apa, siapa dan kemana kita harus mencari?
Yang salah membuat kita takut
Terlalu takut bahkan untuk melihatnya
Seakan itu hal yang membahayakan diri kita
Ketakutan kita membuat bertanya, apa yang akan terjadi esok?
Tidak mudah untuk melihat dan menyentuh ke dalam diri kita sendiri
Musuh besar yang tidak berada jauh dari kita
Terlalu dekat untuk dilihat
tapi terlalu jauh untuk disentuh
Kesalahan bagian dari kehidupan
Ketakutan akibat dari kesalahan
Dosa tidak bisa kita rasakan
Setelahnya kita akan menerima akibatnya...

do you know what life is it?
have you ever wondered why are we here?
try to find out the answer?
figure out what is the reason?
if He created us to show his superiority
why does He care about us?
we are also superior among another His creatures
we don't care about ants, trees and others!
He created us for a reason
His love, care, mercy, gift..
it must be for something!
and when you already know the reason
you died..

i know what i am
i know my bribe
i know what it should be mine
and i know i want more..
i want that not belong to me
i want to know what i shouldn't know
i want to taste another i never before
and i want something else..
i never forgave my self for my voracious
i never blamed my self for what i need more
i never torture my self for something else
but it makes me hungry, pain, sorry..
as a one, we've never contented
as a person, we've never saw what others need
as a human being, we always think about ourself
something i want to be.. brimful heart of kindness!
