Evolved Into Humanism

i didn’t realize how Yogyakarta was ruined. more than 5000 people died in that

earthquake. i’m not much of a person who really cares about other people.

especially miseries. i dunno. maybe i’m used to pain and suffering so i’m not too

concern with another misery happening all around me. call me selfish, call me

cruel or one sick bastard. but, yesterday my eyes suddenly rolling its tears,

right at my work desk & only one of my friend knows about this. yes, in a middle

of nothing i suddenly felt my heart torn to pieces. as if you lost your mom and

dad, or u heard the news of ur loved one died. strange, no more than that,

totally freaking shit. a compiled of a large amount of people’s emotion hit me on

my head and strike me in my heart. maybe what i’m talking is sounds like crap to

you. at that particular moment i felt a huge sadness towards nothing. what a

wimp, as i thought of myself.
but i’m sorry, i just couldn’t help myself with this. could u stop ur heart from

beating? i know some indians could, but that’s not the point. i seek an answer

for this strange insident, and my friend said, maybe there’s something to do with

with Jogja. i said, hell no. i know what’s happening there, but i’m not some holy

man who’s rush to save the world when parts of it in great disaster. i don’t

care. but damn it, yesterday was hellavah day for me. i couldn’t focus on my job.

i was so gloomy, a black cloud stop over me and giving me so many bad feelings.
and then couple hours later my boss (she already went back from Itally and

brought me a nice mug) she told us to call each of our client especially lived in

Jogja. just to find out whether they’re ok and such. and i thought, hmm..what a

coincidence..hehe. i called some of my accounts and quite sad really listening on

the phone of their stories. there’s this women, cried as i called her. her dad

was one of the quake victims. burried under their house. another man told me he

lost his whole factory and house. they lived in their relative’s residence. some

others are just fine, but left with this horrible trauma whenever they heard a

rumble, a small shake, or just noises. well, my work place start to gathering

money and living supplies to be sent out to Jogja.

sometimes i wonder what are those human doing exactly. one moment they go into

war, fighting over something that’s not even clear about. or destroying their own

living planet with toxic, anger or stupidness. not that i’m agree or disagree 

about this whole crap, no. i don’t really into other’s doing or what the hell

they r up to. what i have in mind is, strange to see how people behave. at one

time we are so indivualistic when other time we are gathered in one whole same

situation? what is this…? human are so weird. i cannot predict what they are up

to in another second i turned myself away from them. one of my best friend once said to me:

If you ever get close to a human Emotion
and human behaviour
be ready to get confused

there’s definitely no logic
to human behaviour
but yet so irresistible
there is no map
to human behaviour

they’re terribly moody
then all of a sudden turn happy
but, oh, to get involved in the exchange
of human emotions is ever so satisfying

…and she is so right.
