Malam

Hai Malam,

Lama kita tak berjumpa

Jauh.....jauh sekali sejak masa terakhir kita bertemu

Tahukah kau, terselip rindu padamu di setiap detiknya

Hai Malam,

Dapatkah kukembali padamu

Menikmati heningnya dunia bergasing

Memulihkan hati yang terluka

Hai Malam,

Tahukah kau

Banyak.....banyak sekali khilaf yang tlah kulakukan

Sebanyak daun di pepohonan yang rimbun

Hai Malam,

Ketenanganmu selalu meruntuhkanku

Ampunanmu menambah keagunganmu

Senyumanmu mencerahkanku

Hai Malam,

Kuingin kita bertemu

Sebelum perjalanan panjangku

Semoga Tuhan mengijinkan

I love you without knowing how, or when, or from where.

I love you straightforwardly, without complexities or pride;

so I love you because I know  no other way

Beyond Leadership

"Seseorang yang ingin menjadi pemimpin, khususnya pemimpin puncak, harus belajar untuk berempati pada posisi puncak. Ia harus belajar untuk menerima rasa dingin dan kesepian. Seorang pemimpin puncak mempunyai tugas pokok membuat keputusan sendirian. Manajemen memang adalah tim. Dalam membuat keputusan, maka tim manajemen akan menyiapkan riset, alternatif pilihan, prioritas, dan serangkaian mekanisme pendukung pengambilan keputusan. Bahkan, sebelum keputusan dibuat pun ada board meeting yang dihadiri oleh seluruh dewan direksi. Namun, siapa yang membuat keputusan akhir dan bertanggung jawab atas seluruh risikonya ? Biasanya, yang membuat keputusan akhir adalah seorang Presiden Direktur, meskipun terdapat organisasi yang bekerja secara tim penuh, di mana di dalam Board Of Director, CEO bertindak sebagai the first among the equal."(Beyond Leadership , Dr, Djokosantoso Moeljono)

Tentu saja hal tersebut tidak diartikan bahwa seorang pemimpin sama sekali tidak memiliki teman atau seorang penyendiri. Salah satu faktor pendukung seorang menjadi pimpinan tentu dikarenakan adanya jaringan pertemanan yang luas.

Yang ingin disampaikan di sini. Apakah ia seorang pemimpin ataupun tidak, pada akhirnya manusia sebagai pribadi akan mempertanggungjawabkan perbuatannya di dunia kepada Tuhan YME dengan sendirian..................................................

Puzzle

It looks like a puzzle.....I never see it clearly......but I feel it very clear........

Those puzzle just come into my live....and I just follow it......

I've decided to take a very different path.......but it is the anwer of my pray.....

I can't explain what I want in this life....but I know what is my destination.......

Sometimes, the feeling unsecure is appears in this heart

The feeling unconfident hovering this mind

Those are time when Thy challenge my faith.......

Words...Words.....Words......

This posting has no related with that title. Just want to put it as title :p

Nowadays, Indonesian getting busy with election preparation. There are some 'famous' people appears on TV promote himself, his vision and mission. Let the world (Indonesian) know about his generosity, his kindness and also his godliness.
Yes, they need to do it because they are not famous enough. At the same time, they are not a philantrophist, not that kindness and also not that godliness. Just think logically. A famous artist, for instance Krisdayanti, while promoting a supplement she doesn't need to tell everybody that she is a famous singer/artist in Indonesia. She just drink that supplement then do some activity. People will comprehend it by themselves that the supplement give contribution to her heyday.
You don't need any acknowledgement for something that you really have. Just wear your clothes everyday then people will recognize it as yours. Simple...

One thing we can learn from the past (orde baru) is don't be a hypocrite. I noticed this behaviour return from its hibernation. He said what he do (be a leader of some community) has nothing to do with his objective as balloon. However let do a little scrutiny. We'll find that his concern to some grass root community starts recently . Where were you before ???

I mean....there is nothing wrong with it. Everybody can do it. Nevertheless, don't deny the fact, be a gentle (arhhh....so hard to find a gentleman today :p ) . Hmm.....or maybe I'm wrong in my little scrutiny....well....let's see......

In my opinion, what they do are so adolescent.

Joyeux anniversary pour moi :)

I will be more active updating my blog to practice my English he he he.....
Since I need to write with a topic, so I will write my blog in topic cohesively , concisely and seriously (no more “he he he” ;p) .

My first topic is LOVE . Since it is the easy topic I have recently .
Well then, the topic is “What do you know about LOVE ? Include details and examples to support your explanation”.

Love, I agree with the lyric from a song titled KASIH. Love is humble. Love is forgiveness. Love is gentle. Love is generous.

When I fell in love, I believed the Love will be mine forever. I believed the Love will never let me down. I believed the Love is trusted.

When the Love betrayed my trust...............(speechless)

I’m still believe, love is not jealous. Love is humble. Love is forgiveness. Love is gentle. Love is generous. So those are what happened .

Love can be very destroying if it is meant with obsession.

Love is not disturbing.
Love give tranquility not hatred. Love give serenity not rush.

Because Love will find a way. Anywhere we go. Whatever we do.

Hanya Engkau tempatku berlindung
Hanya Engkau lagu dan kekuatanku
Ijinkanlah kudatang menyembah
Membawa syukur ku

Sedalamnya hatiku Kau pun tau...
Dan kasih Mu tak jauh dalam jiwaku
Didalam kesesakan...
Didalam kemenangan...
Ku tahu Engkau slalu bersamaku...
