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 
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.
I wanna love you forever
And this is all I’m asking of you
10,000 lifetimes together
Is that so much for you to do?
Cuz from the moment that I saw your face
And felt the fire in your sweet embrace
I swear I knew
I’m gonna love you forever
i heard bout the news..but i havent seen it on tv or watever..maybe coz im too busy doin my exam thingy..but when i read ur blog….damn!u got me man..i juz realize dat im too selfish..i always think about my self and other stuffs..i didnt even realize dat there’s so many victim in yogyakarta..i thought it was hundreds sumthin..
may they rest in peace..
well, everyone’s selfish in a way or another. there’s no doubt. every human has all the bad and good elements but the problem is how much do they have it in them?
for me, i guess human behaviour attracts me. we are so unpredictable and yet unique in a way. it will be a bore if everone is easily predictable.
no matter what life goes on. people move on. and the journey will never end.
youre trying to hide your feelings, but its ok to feel it or show it because its normal for humans to feel that way
Every seconds count no matter where we stay but one thing you will never know what gonna happen. No one can change mother nature its just that we have to learn to accept it. Sorry for the people in joyjakarta. I don’t know where the next place will be.
may be u can ask Mbah Maridjan about what is happening right now in Jogja,he seems to know everything (or nothing?) about the situation in there, so sad about it, lots of my friends lost their relatives as well, and now i wonder if this country really is cursed…nature disaster, incompetent leaders, corruption everywhere, the laws are bended, human rights is nothing (am i right?), chaos everyday…that’s indonesia, yet why i still love this country???
yes life is cruel..one of my elementary school mate..her grandma died on the 21.05.06 and her beloved mum was gone too 7 days later..sad.. :_(
I think no matter how nonchalant people try to be, they still end up the other way. =)
Condolences to the families of those who died. It’s just been over a year since the tsunami incident and this happened =(
you’re the same as i am. don’t worry its a natural for even someone as so tough to be soft wen the topic is about feelings for others…. especially wen its all bout losing someone….or alot of people de4ar 2 you….
Dude, go back to grammar school. I’m sorry but I expected more from a featured blog.
About those creatures in Yogyakarta, I actually think it’s their time to go. You really think God has nothing to do with the death of 5000+ people all at once?! It’s His Will. Besides, Indonesians are once again killing Christians in East Timor. THEY DESERVE WHAT HAPPENED in Yogybear-yakarta.
and in reply to yuri’s comment, yes, your country is cursed. for good. =)
may god always bless all of em n may they rest in peace…from malaysia with love
yeah,i just heard bout da news 3days ago after i had my breakfast. so sad n tragic..may god bless them !
I have no sadness about this!!?? It’s happened naturally. Different with Bali which was being boomed by some bastard!!!
One of my vendor was in Yogya fr ‘Lamaran’ then the earth quake happend, they lost the house everything but still continue the agenda as can not be postpone anymore,
So they do it in front of the smashed houses, under rambutan tree in dark situation after that she got sick and now depress ….
Wish all best for all people there….. as per explained by geologiest why this can be happend and we have nothing to do to avoid but be ready and face it.
Unfortunately Indonesia always prepare after everything happend, never prepare before…. after what happend to Aceh, we should be aware for all point, not only pay attention on one point only (Gunung Merapi) but should be also take care for the relative disaster… hope this can be a good lesson fr all …. GBU..
human are emotional beings that why we are called human…its hard to tell oneselves not to be emotional but then certain feelings and emotions are being evoked in our hearts from time to time…its strange why men are killing each other with various artificial methods while anough people has died in this way. God Bless Them…May the victims who have left this world R.I.P.
i read ur post and i cant help to thnk of a reason y so tragic thngs like this is happening ryt now!! maybe it did’nt happen to our country but maybe becoz people get so badly invole with so many ruinly manner!!and it’s so sad that even those innocent pipol nid to supper ol dis tings!! im hoping dat dis wud serve as a lesson or as an eye opener to dos pipol hu thnks no good to oders!!let’s live life to d fullest in a rytful way!!
nice posting
commenting and tagshing.
sometimes, there’s so much crap happening in our life that we ought to worry about other’s problems the next day. though funny how some people could spend their whole day or fine, let’s say half of it, worrying about their friends’ problem. is that pretty normal? well, i think it is.
about the breakdown, well, maybe you’re just an unconscious empath. you’re not really aware that it has affected you of some sort. ugh, whatever, i’m talking crap again. haha!
it’s normal to breakdown every once in a while for no reason at all… and no, that doesn’t make you some wimp crying over something you don’t know.
you’ve got some blogging talent. keep it up.
your altruism is smeared in narcissism and the stench of your fakery may be enclosed and posted to the world and thus let the destitute of this tired earth burn it. just stick to watching Americas Top Model and let your dad watch the BBC news my so-called’humanist’friend, the world yawns becuase you tire it.
Human is so weird? (who in particular?) or is man is so weird? or human being is so weird?…. how singular? (my grammatically inclined brain is now tragic….)
I have lot of relatives there.. and fortunately, all of them are ok.. =`]
Hi. You are so damn right. Yesterday, I was watching the news and I knew 4000+ people died in Jogjakarta and suddenly I felt sympathy for the people. I remembered the times when a hundred thousand people suffered from the killer tsunami that devastated the whole island. What a mess…. May God help them.
i respect u hu ever u r!!!!!!
Your blog attract my attention. After reading it, i feel that I should write smth bc to you. This is my first time responding to ppl’s blog… Well I should say that everyone is buddha actually which mean everyone has wisdom, courage and buddhahood. You hv this kind of feeling over the sad incident is absolutely normal because you are human being. From religious point of view, ppl in Jogjakarta has the same karma. In fact everyone of us has both the good karma as well as the bad karma. I came across a saying that one place with all the disasters because ppl there are led by wrong teaches. To save all the ppl there, we hv to eradicate the wrong teachings.
hey.. i guess there’s nothing wrong being sorry for those who were affected by the earthquake. you know what? i really adore your honesty about how you really feel with your environment. i guess that is my weakness. being secretive about what i really feel. anyways, i suggest to give a short prayer for those who re affected. it’s not bad after all. just give it a try.. =)at least in a simple way you help them..
what you felt was just normal… we are all interconnected… despite differences in culture, races, places… =(n_n)= Godbless!
ei… your blog suckzzz… piss off!
abo = u r disgusting…
my auntie n her son passed away becoz of that earthquake. may them (all of the victims) rest in peace…
juzz kiddin’! you got a nice talent in writing man! god speed!
phew, that was good..
anyway, hide or flaunt it, we are humans. and i mean that not only by the things seen by the naked eye but also by the heart, mind and soul that lies hidden within our human bodies.
there’s this phrase:”madaling maging tao,pero mahirap magpakatao..” that i do believe. it means, for those who do not understand, that it is easy to be classified or be called a human, but ecting like one.. man, that’s an entire different story.. makes sense to me..
i respect what you say..
i dont care who u are really..but thanks for ur empaty..i lived in semarang, about 120 kilometers from jogjakarta, thanks to God for saved my city from that earthquake..o ya..maybe u can donate some ur money in order help them in Jogja and Klaten
Pain n suffering can make u being selfish person. Itz just matter of time till u realize life is just life. Anyway, great blog! Rich of reflection
helo..there..
oh my god, ur best friend is bjorkkkk, u r sooo kewlzzz,
and yes, i know, im annoying…
Believe it or not, accept it or don’t - you were GREATLY affected by what happened… welcome to humanity, Sir.. We’re not robots, I know you know that. We feel, we’ve got emotions and your unwelcome feelings of sadness can be so disturbing especially if bottled up inside of you. Release the tension, help yourself by helping others (as I can see you can be very empathic). You are responsible for others. Yes, you are… you live not just as an individual, not just for yourself. Hard as it may seem to accept but I tell you, unless you go out there and share what you’ve got to share, that disturbing feeling inside of you wont ever go. Never go. I aint saying you go save the whole world.. but probably part of it. Do your share, man… the world needs people like you who can reflect on this. You’ll see a more diverse and extreme character of people and you’ll hate it at first. Too much of it will drive you crazy. But as long as you’ve got respect with people’s differences and weirdness, you can very well survive. And you’ll see life as more than a problem to be solved full of people with fluid, unpredictable personalities, but as something precious, priceless treasure which is more appreciated when shared. These are just my thoughts… is there a wrong opinion anyway.
actually wat i think is that we should appreciate all the ppl around us, especially those that r really close with us and care for us…u won’t know what things will going to happen 2moro or the next minute!!n actually i just only realise that how important it is to care for the ppl around us and try to think what they need n their feeling.
living as a man is the most difficult in our existence. life is too complicated, but we can always make it simple.. just with our own litte way, like choosing what clothes to wear everyday as we go out for work, choosing to smile despite the pain and hardship we are into, choosing to understand the most difficult and very unforgiving act.
the uncertainty of life will always get certain answer with the way that we chooses. do we choose to stop and prolong the pain or let go and move on.
each day, though it is super difficult, i always try to make a nice and light decision with my life. for each day, i always earn a happy thought that makes my existence better.

The stupidity of human beings. Emotions, behaviour, deliciously tempting, huh?
you know what… i gota tell you something. you see im from a whole different country. Philippines actually… but my dad is on a schooling there in indonesia… 3 hours from the place where the quake happened. and when i heard the news, i kinda DIDN’T CARE..to be honest…my dad was okay… so why should i care? but when now that i have come to think of it… earthquakes can happen anywhere…it could’ve happened here or my dad could’ve been there…that’s even beside the point. 5,000 people died…They’re gone… it’s just hard to comprehend how things like that can happen. those 5000 people prolly thought they have more years ahead of them and not knowing that… their end is near. i just felt a wave of sadness… it could happen to me… to anybody… and im not sure if im ready
Have a gd day!
wow, u really had a talent in writing….your blog totally attract my attention, you’re really good at this…this is my first time in posting a comment in someone’s blog…wow, i really admire u..having guts to say what you feel to everybody is not a joke consdering you’re a guy..opinionated is a great word to describe u…same as you i feel sympathy to victims of situations like that..like the incident of the tsunami,oh my, it really hits my heart.i always go out on weekdays, and as i look at people they’re weird..too much complicated to understand one…each one of us has feelings and emotions either it’s sad, happy or mixed…you couldn’t know what will happen next…everybody suffers..it’s really hard to deal with life especially the part of having problems..everything around us is temporary..and everybody has an end..maybe its just their time to go..everyone of us will eventually die…its a damn truth in this world..but the was you deal with life will make things lighter..try smiling at poblems or laugh at mistakes..nothing’s gonna happen if u cry at one side,nothing will change..you’ll just end up as a big looser..everything is controlled by god’s will,everything has a reason…i know it’s really hard to deal with everyday uncertainties but try looking at the bright side..it’s not yet the end of the world..for me, it’s a risk everytime i decide, being a teenager like me is a big deal..i’ve only lived in this worlds for almost 15 years..i’ve got nothing as a background..how could i survive,but whenever i fall..i always try to stand and be a better person each day..knowing that it’s not only my failure but a also a failure to my parents, always make me stand and prove something to people and to myself..if thers’s no such thing that will happen in this world, it’s a mess…this planet would be so perfect that no one will be able to learn..i hope the tragedy will serve a lesson to people who make this planet shity..shame on you guys!!many people suffers…i’ll just pray that people who had lost their love ones will be able to move on and live life.
don’t let your emotions overshadow your intelect.. sufferrings is just a part of our existence in this violent world. i totally syphatize with your country men.
@ abo… SHAME ON YOU!
1vs1?? add me
nice guy…u make me cry..
Nice headline…You’re one hell of a blogger..Keep it up!
well..
suffer is juz a part of lyf..
sumtym we shud view sufferings as a mark of God’s love. at least, He care to give us the ‘exam’ in dis world.
we can simply put, suffering itself is Gos’d token of love.
btw, life is about trying to make it perfect. of coz, on ur route to make perfect of it, u stumble upon few damn thngs, but hey, wuts wrong with it??all of us have our own bad experince..
God!!! i dream to be a writer, and i’m jealous! you should publish something. you should! or i’ll just be mad at you. don’t waste such a talent like yours. i’ve read lots of phylosphical books (french esspecially) and i think you deserve to publish a book. you have some good questions about life and you try to find the answers. you’re someone with a mind that always asks why and why, and i like that. I just love your writings. keep writing, okay? and consider to publish!!
I heard da news too.. when I 1st heard of the news, I was wondering y Indonesia wud b the 1st country that having natural disaster.. I’m sympaty for the people there. .after the tsunami thing, then here come the earthquake. How long they going to survive all these? They not rich, they cant buy it back again if they just… unlucky.
Oh guys.. like u all posted all the comments there, don jus say so. Do watever u can. Although u cant help them personally, u can donate money, no matter how much is it, it still from u urself and from ur true heart. ^^
wow you made stop what i was doing!
you have a good heart!(naks!)
and have ever thought of something about third eye’s?coz i thnk people or souls are telling what they felr…
yeah…u have talent in writing and sharing your thoughts. i have alwiz been like u asking a lot of questions to myself but i neva write something like this and seldom share them to others..yeah..life is a mystery but we shall rejoice our life..
i’m from CA, and i’m my way there to help.. do something then!!
yeap..i like the way u blog and express urself… u caught my attention in ur earliest lines.. and seems to me it aint easy to be evolving into ‘humanism’ isn’t it? .. it’s often more easier for men to evolve into egoism, materialism and such ..
yeah…i also feel sorry for d people in jogjakarta..so sad..i dunno if that earthquake effected a lot of people..so muchh people die..actually i im in magelang..about 1 hour from jogjakarta by car..so i could feel how the earthquake shaked them!!it was so scary anw..now,the victims have been handled..many people have helped them..but the problem is ‘now they do not have a house,a place to live..besides,it rains everyday in jogjakarta..not only the water..but also dust from gunung merapi..the dust is pretty annoying..makes my hair falls..T-T
god,please guide and save them from this pain..
you got me there… most people usually felt the same way how you feel… they don’t give a damn on whatever shits happens around them, and sad to say, am one of them… maybe, it’s God’s way of reminding us, that were not alone in this world..
excess: u have a good hand in writing… keep it up.
hey! u really are great..y don’t u be a writer?! u have the potentials..u don’t know in tym to come u’ll be the next Dan Brown…hehehe..u fascinate me..u’r so good man..take care..! =)
i’d read some of ur blogs, can’t finish them all tonyt,but im gonna read all of them some other tym.. i do love the way u expressed urself..u are great!!! keep it up =)
my grandma passed last year.. im so very sad n dat day,but people needs to rest… or god want them back to heaven
hell great! never in my last days i see someone with this kinda great vision…
hey.. we here in malaysia felt it too. my sympathy and condolences.. losing their loved ones, never easy.. i can assure that.. been there, done that.
sometimes even the toughest could shed a tear for a stranger.. someone in another part of the world, whom u know in this eternity will never mingle with u..
but human, that’s what we are,,,
so there’s nothing wrong to share a bit of vulnerable moments..
jeeezzz..
see all ur writin’ it’s striking me again and again!!!
you know what you making me addicted to you.
well yeah..the disaster making me realize that i was too damn selfish to think about other
and i think is just about the human behaviour again.
indulging yourself and try to be what you arent? wake up.
Things to say:
1. 90% of all the active volcanoes of the world are situated in Indonesia. Your country is built on the most fragile lands on earth. God bless Indonesia.
2. This blog is becoming somekind of chicks magnet. Lucky commenter’s pic is not displayed, else i’ll be really annoyed to see boobs talking.
3. It’s great to have comments like ABO’s, as long as it can be taken constructively. Too much compliments sucks especially when all these pussies are just POINTING OUT THE OBVIOUS… if you people only know what it means.
“turn on the faucet. Wash yourself with the emotion. It won’t hurt you. It will only help. If you let the fear inside, if you pull it on like a familiar shirt, then you can say to yourself, ‘all right, it’s just fear, I don’t have to let it control me. I see it for what it is.Same for loneliness: you let go, let the tears flow, feel it completely — but eventually be able to say, ‘all right, that was my moment with loneliness. I’m not afraid of feeling lonely, but now I’m going to put that loneliness aside and know that there are other emotions in the world, and I’m going to experience them as well.’” - tuesdays with morrie by mitch albom
svor exoeriences, immerse urself in watever emotion u feel…God bless you!
nice blogg!!..u are so talented…

GOD BLESS U!
I really appreciate what you had written. Eye opener for some who in one way or another felt the same way as you did. May God give you wisdom and understanding for what happened. Life is too short to be wasted… Be thankful for everything…

3. got to go with INCI… this really is turning into a chick magnet site…

5.liljiChiela, hmmm… u are weird…
6. you may say that you have no care about the world nor what people do, but the simple act of writing and having people read and write there comments on your blog says otherwise… you do care dude…

nice post. it impress me so much. But maybe God have other plans for the people.
And to ABO…..what’s wrong with your fuckin’ head!!!!!
I wonder what will you do if you’re in the victims’ position.
in every existence of a human being, there is death….
we must be ready and prepared of the outburst of the environment…
we have been cruel to them and in return many lives have been suffered.
Selfish? Yet u are suffering the sadness? That’s what makes u special from the others. Our defects make us different and special from each one of us. Through sadness and misery u creates something beautiful; ur words are meaningful and touched other’s heart. Even though I live in Malaysia but my sensitive transmitter feels the same way u describe in ur beautiful words .
I finally got to see the video of that Tori Amos song that I love , thanks!

Indonesian don’t kill up christian…it’s the Fuckin ‘(former)Governer and bureaucrats or whoever who wants to take advantage from there who try to mess up this fucked up country…understand that

Indonesia is already a fucked up country (ask ur friend who live here),Damn wish i wasn’t born here… now + the quake… god is *surely* pissed off with us…BTW, thx for the caring to jogja…appreciate that…
,.,WEEW,,that’s a curse from God!!know why,?bcos last last year..there was a case which the indonesian killed a Pastor.,and thats tha cause y they suffer that much
Dear Friend,
that’s really human, your writing tells about what your feelings actually, and it’s remain me in my day when the disasters happened, I was in my home when it’s happened, and it’s first time to me in my life to see and feel directly in this kind of event from nature.I heard my neighbour called me to go out. but the quaqe in my place just about minutes and after that I was packed my back and camera . and in that early morning I pictured the people, what I send in my pictures, maybe you can view what really happened on that day, but I was directly near them, all people panic, I myself was still trauma to the quaqe, but when I saw the view of injured and the house flattered directly in front of my eyes. untill now it’s still horified, but I love my job and to let other knowing it from pictures.
you may visit this site to view the pics I took since the first day untill now.
I decided stay in this town even i saw some friends prepred themselves to move to other town, where they thought safe and stay with their relatives.

(dalam susah pun senang … for everything has it own time) …
nice reflection! the truth is, we’r all humans and there is this link or connection among all of us. No matter how we shun ourselves from everyone, time will come that it’ll bring us back to them.
This is the first time I read people’s blog. And this is the first time I post a comment regarding someone’s blog. Your thoughts really caught me up…
I’m praying from here for Jogjakarta…
Keep posting!
Thats the circle of life. Its ok to be sad sometimes. You are human after all. U dont need a good reason when sadness engulf you. Its part of the heart business. Take care though. Pray, it’ll ease away the pain.
people tend to do things w/c we can’t understand… often confusing and tiring to be bothered of. with all this anxiety going on, its your choice whether or not you will act…and with these choices we become human, vulnerable to responsibilities… -hop 2 read more of dis kind of blogs-

Let us draw near to God with sincere heart in full assurance of faith, having our hearts sprinkled to cleanse us from a guilty conscience and having our bodies washed with pure water. Let us hold unswervingly to the hope, we profess, for he who promised is faithful. Let us consider how we may spur one another on towards love and good deeds…..and more as you see the Day approaching.
The daily chores and tasks have “numbed” our God’s given conscience in all of us. This catastrophes has unleash your conscience to explore God’s purpose in your life.

I swear god, you really open up my fucking stupid mind. a few moment before i read ur blogs, i was acting shellfish and totally out of controled. and when i read urs, i was like… i don’t know.. i guess if theres no one else around, i would cry by now. u got the gift man.. gift to touched other people heart. use it well..
just want to tell u, i wasn’t a good heart kind of girl.and for making me saying this whole crap just by ur stories, i tell u something dude..
fuck u!
keep praying for our brothers and sisters in Jogja..
wow, it’s really great to know that there are still members of the male specie who do care about what’s happening in this planet. and well, yeah, you have the gift of words, perhaps someday you could write your own bestseller.kudos!…
i juz felt so lonesome the other day, there was this pang of grief that suddenly engulfed me. i almost couldn’t take it, it nearly knocked me out of my wits. i wanna bauble in tears but the hard part was that i juz couldn’t cry..and then there was this news flash about that earthquake and whoah,,,i felt guilty feeling so lonesome for juz a mediocre reason…people out there died, thousands of others are grieving–wallowing in their heartbreaks…how cud i be so self-centered to juz sulk over my own simple —i don’t know…
my heart goes out to them so strongly, there are millions of other people out there who suffer much, much pain…i realize im still lucky….
hi there…dun care who u are…
but this is really really nice blog man!!!
yes, human are naturally selfish…in a sense that were just human and not an extra ordinary holy individual…even the so called saints have their unnoticed selfishness…but that is not the whole point…what really matters is, despite of our selfishness there is still goodness within us…even the most cruel criminal in the world believes to have such unnoticed goodness…yes this “thought” is so confusing just like humans are…and I greatly agree with what “dusk till dawn said” that “every human has all the bad and good elements but the problem is how much do they have it in them?
“.
with what you felt..well its normal.it only shows that even how much you think you’re selfish you still can’t deny that you still care for other people.
For those people who are victims of such tragedy…I have nothin to offer but there’s only one thing that I can do for them…”pray”.
To be honest ur blogs make me feel that i am a normal person..When d 1st time i heard about d YK earthquake,,i didn’t touched at all,,because i thougt sooner or later everybody will die anyway,,it’s only the matter of time..but then I realized that was wrong when my friend asked me to go there..Sometimes although God gives us empathy, we always deny about our feeling,,but deep down inside everybody has caring senses on others
A very profound assessment of humanity. Reading through your litany(?) somehow eased my emotional isolation. I do admire your tenacity in partly condemning our actions. I am not much into letting anyone read my inner struggles of anything and everything on this world. I’ve learned early on in life that a girl should shut her mouth and her mind when it comes to issues. I have learned that mediocrity makes people accept you more…hmmm…Sensing your feeling of unworthiness somehow provided a temporary solace for my own search of a meaningful life. thank you.
My friend actually told me that she read ur post under featured blog and she said you write nicely. I should say I was more intrigued than interested of the content of ur post. When I got to read it I was moved by ur transparency. truly it was a tragedy. And while reading some comments on ur post, I discovered that not all of us have that gift of being able to empathize and sympathize with the tragedys of others. All I can say is “shame on them”.God Bless their souls.
I jz realised how childish and plain dumb christians are. It amuses me how u guys refuse 2 use ur brains 2 think. Jz bcos they killed a pastor ur imaginary friend u call god has 2 destroy a whole city and kill 6000 ppl? sick man… then i say ur god is fcking sick and so are u all. U all hu think this earthquake was justified are no better than cultists. I’m sure if ur god was around he would be weeping at how u all imbeciles are so insensitive towards other ppls suffering.
we shld give help 2 those survivors, nt stand aside and say its they’re fault. How can a baby be at fault?
From my point of view, ur god is a the most fricking biggest terrorist in the world,and obviously he does nt want peace.
thts all
and btw,
im nt christian or muslim
and i do hv a religion.
god bless jogjakarta. may b this is the consequence of what we have done to this sacred earth. n ur emotion n sadness may it’s worthy.
what was happened in jogja make me realized that i am juz a small person that could not do anything if God had decided wat will happened to us.
btw, have u known that more than 6500 people has died now??
i am also live in Indonesia. everyday all the news paper n tv told us wat the damage of that earthquake. i feel so scared to see the video, cause its shown to us how people stand their life even with so much injury in their body. people cried,lost their family..
..wish it`ll never happened again..
to terrorbunny—-i understand u myt be thnking u’r dis great commentator-a thinker…im a christian man, i don’t think im stupid nor are the other members of christianity and i don’t blame anybody for the occurrence of such a catastrophe..the people whom u refer to as stupids (the ones hu condemned sinners as being punished by God)are but a minority, they babble about things they aren’t fully aware of. they cud be members of God’s church but they do not represent the whole of the christian community.—u have to realize that before u go on ranting ur curses and belittling or smearing God’s image, u need to delve deeper into issues, evaluate each that has stimulated ur anger and try to see if they’re worthy enough for you to trample into an actuality that millions of people have had pinned their hopes into…
Whatever religion u might have, I still hope that my God would watch over u and enlighten u…
When a tragedy like that occurs, some people are affected and felt sorry for the victims, some people didn’t care, and sad to say, some heartless people are pleased when others are suffering. That’s what humans are, and we can’t do anything about it. And just like u, im proud to say that im one of those who grieve.
im not a very religious man, but i do believe in God, He who is almighty, and He who is compassionate. We could say some people deserve to die, but some people definitely don’t, especially the babies. But would our compassionate God would just mindlessly wave His hand and kill all those people? In my opinion, no.
It’s a natural disaster, it happens, it’s inevitable. or maybe it’s nature’s way to remind us humans that we should respect her and treat her more properly;; and that should we wait for another thousands of lives to be taken away before we could learn to care for others and appreciate the gift of life?
nice to know there’s still a person like u.
ThankMyspace Codes: MyNiceSpace.coms for loving humanisme
waaa..bgus..leh wat novel..
i have seen it from the news and its heart bugging…you see it happened here in the philippines before and trribly ruin everything in that part of our counrty…
but lets face it !!!
that how nature balance its self,riht?
we humans are maid to be strong,to learn on what we’re facing and what we may face…
we are to survive life…
what happened in your country is one thing we all must accept as far as nature is concern…and as human it is our duty and our obligation to help and care about others who are in need…
its nice to know that u care…that ur not ignoring this things like those selfish politicians here in my counrty who help only for their publicity and not for the real need of their country men…
anyway…let’s just pray for them and hope that those victims will cope easily…
PS. NICE BLOG. ITS AWAKNING EVERYONE!!!
good bless,!
well..keep on praying to them guys…
nice… ur blog is one of the featured blogs here and i tried to read… i’ve heared that news and was shocked of how many people had died there and some are still suffering… i think all we have to do is to pray for all of them…
such a cool blog…well, who could stand what we watch on tv, on the news about the earthquake? what brought me into tears was that i felt that i couldn’t do anything to help, that i’m such a selfish brat, i’ve never been thankful enough to God for everything that i have, and to think about how easy He can take away what He has given to us. thanks for the inspiring blog.
Cheer up las. =))
