If ye love me, ye will keep my commandments. And I will pray the Father, and he shall give you another Comforter, that he may abide with you for ever; Even the Spirit of truth; whom the world cannot receive, because it seeth him not, neither knoweth him: but ye know him; for he dwelleth with you, and shall be in you. I will not leave you comfortless: I will come to you.
I Still Vote Ledet
Much grateful for the one who can perform the really performance who can amaze people by the power and the soul that always pours out whenever he sings in the stage.
For the one who is the real singer who can communicate with people just by singing.
For the one who has potentials to inspire people by the music he gives.
For the one who could show the light of God, just when he sings at the stage.
Thank you so much, Joshua Ledet. You’re one of my best inspiration right now.
I still vote for ya. You are blessed and God bless you with your talent.
The Real Basic of Music
You know what, this is five-star important. How can you do things without knowing what it is for?
So based on my experiences and some books, music has functions:
1. A medium for someone losing himself in. Usually it helps him to solve problems.
2. To be a universal language. It can influence people. Actually, music is a “carrier” of the contexts, meanings, and cultures. If you feel like there’s something wrong or something different just happens to you after you hear the music, you can’t blame the music. It’s you.
3. Prayer. Yes, it is. God looooves music. He created it himself for us to make us feel happy but not to stay away from Him. He wants us to be grateful of what He has granted us, with hearing the music. Thank to Him for the creativity that the musicians has made through the music which relax our minds & body in not more than 5 minutes.
But be careful for what the music brings to you. Once again, you can’t blame the music. Music is a carrier thing. It’s a language of emotion, bad or good. All we have to do is not to stay away from music, of course, but selecting the right music which brings us have a good way of thinking. Also think about the time we have spent of listening music instead of socializing, learn something new, giving help & serving others, study (if you still on school/college), or even worship. If you can play instruments, go on with it. Create new songs and (I think) it doesn’t sin because it’s originally yours.
In worship, the conscience is quickened by the holiness of God, the mind is fed by the truth of God, the imagination is purged by the beauty of God, the heart is opened to the love of God, and the will is devoted to the purpose of God.
We know that all things work together for good to those who love God.
The Bible is meant to be bread for daily use, not cake for special occasions.
Next Year. Yes.. Next Year
Today’s weather in jakarta is cloudy, so gray and a bit rainy in the morning. Perfect, I think. Streets and roads, malls are crowded. Restaurants. Bookstores. Supermarkets. So where am I gonna be tonight? Home sweet home. Spectacular.. And this day should’ve been my first year anniversary with my.. ex. Whoa hey, I’m alright, extremely fine. But I just can’t believe time’s been running so fast and faster. I loooove this month actually like it was just planned from above. The days are perfect sistematically. And I pray that next year would be much better, and I guess so. My resolution for the next year will be extremely challenging. O my God, I’m just nervous. Well, something just happened in the last christmas day. I was glad, I was crazily excited when my named was written in the 3rd ranked from 40 people of my class. Wow.. I’ve never been one of the top 10 ranked in the class and this is the 1st time (whoohoooooooo…!!!). And soon I was really sure that I don’t need to apply for written test for state universities enrollment. I just need to apply for English Literature major just by submitting my class reports and TOEFL or other certificates and I’m sure I’ll be accepted. Yeah I’m really sure. But theeen on christmas day I got a phone call from my uncle who lived in Los Angeles. Yes. Before that, I still remembered how I dreamed so much of living & studying in US colleges. Now the dream was just vanished when I knew the costs more than $100,000. My parents seemed they didn’t care much about me so I gave up. Well, my uncle said if I make my passport & create my tourist visa (which cost minimal $200), I CAN GO THERE. And the best news: I CAN STUDY THERE AS U.S. RESIDENT which does cost cheap. Yes, CHEAP. YOU DON’T KNOW HOW MY HEART IS STILL JUMPING THESE DAYS!!! X’D X’D X’D Just take one step. Abracadabra, dreams come true. Wow.. But I should think of the consequences, too, of course. My heart says “just accept it, whatever it takes! you’re one step closer, girl!” The other of myself says “chill. you got something more to do right now.” The other says “what the hell if your parents says NO?” And last but not least, God.. still silent. I’m not disappointed. But I’m curious really. It’s not stupid when I say I think my lust is controlling me right now. I know this is the only chance I got. But I don’t want to be selfish, you know. I’m trying hard not to obey what my lust want me to do. The point is, I even have no idea if it’s my lust or not to go to US. Lust makes selfish. I don’t have time to tell you the story of how my lust was controlling me and it didn’t find me any satisfaction. In my life I’m just trying to obey what God says to me through Bible and pray. I’m so happy and afraid at the same time. I do not know how to tell you more it’s too perplexed. Just wish me luck. Yes, God’s will for me is the best path. resolutio new year
Life is like riding a bicycle. To keep your balance you must keep moving.
Apologize for the Inconvenience
i’m sorry guys for not filling this blog for a long time. hard times, you know, especially when these are the last seconds being in school.. hard works to end it up, the last destinations: NATIONAL EXAMS and COLLEGE ENROLLMENT. bet the second one will be damn worth.
well, don’t wanna say this but college means so much. i don’t know what to do if i can’t make that one. but i believe—trying hard to believe—that God will show me the way. that’s why i’m not forcing myself. but i just have to focus of what i’m doing every right now.
so right now is the busiest thing ever. and i have much right-nows.
Last Fighting The Hardest
i’m grade 12!! —-> that’s the hardest battle ever in my life. i mean, college means so much for me and i’m really never gonna waste it and regret it in the future. so i’m trying to manage my time, do better, study harder to be accepted in one of my choices of colleges and that’s tough. YES.. it’s reaaaally tough and exhausting.
even sometimes i think this is only wasting time for something that won’t satisfy your soul.
of course! if you are accepted, you will study hard, always take notes to listen to what the lecturers say, you’ll be done, graduated, working in the greatest company in the world, get thousands & millions of bucks, and sure.. you’ll get your best couple. then what? what else and what again? what all of these for?
i’ll continue it later. sleepy
