Does the GOD exist?

I have several times discussion about the existence of the God with several of my friends.
This time, I'll try to answer one of statements that intends to refuse the existence of the God.
I call IT as the God, and it doesn't limit from a belief that believes with multiple Gods/gods.


One day, there is a man, called Bob, that wants his hair and beard are trimmed such that it looks better.
Therefore, he goes to a barbershop.
During the barber, called Charlie, does his task, they involve in a discussion about many things and one of them is about the existence of the God.

Bob says, "I don't believe if the God exist"
Charlie says, "How come? don't you see many of his creations?"
Bob says, "Mmm, but as you see.... if the God is merciful and beneficent then how come so many people are in hunger and stay in poverty and sick".
Charlie says,"So ?"
Bob says, "So there is no such thing that we call God. Even there is so He is not as nice as we think because He lets it happens".
Charlie is silent and try not to oppose the Bob's opinion.

After everything finished, Charlie pays the fee and leaves the barbershop.
While he is standing in front of the barbershop, he sees a beggar with awful hair and bread.
Suddenly, Charlie shouts, "I do believe that there is no barber in this world".
Surely, Bob feels offended about that statements.
Bob responses, "I'm a barber and I exist, so you're totally wrong".
Charlie says, "If he exists why there is people with awful hair and bread? even he stays exactly in front of a barbershop."
Without any further comments, Charlie goes continuing his day.

Lesson learnt, Barber exists but a beggar doesn't come to him to trim his hair, and if there is a beggar.
In the case of God, THIS THING exists and we just need to come and ask HIM for help.
are we so arrogant such that we still demand that the God helps us even we don't tell him what we want?

--
before I thought that
if the GOD exists then there is no poverty
and I think this premise is too strong
so I refine it: if the God exists and we ask HIM for help then there is no poverty dfd
--
Further question:
how about if we have already asked HIM a help ?

Indonesia GUYS, please please give me your cellphones, I'll call you as soon as I settle down there

See you.. :D

Move on

Move on...
it is the WORD that we ofthe hear when we fail to achieve something.

but why?? we do not to keep fighting to achieve it....
Who knows that the current failure is just a temporary.. and not the permanent one?
Maybe we have limited-energy for fighting due to other activities.

Even I have limited-energy, limited-time and other limitation... but all these limitations are established by our mind..... so if somehow we can deal with our mind.. then we always have energy even the little one.

Don't excuse that you must move on... because you don't have energy and time to do it.
We will move on... when we want it and give up your disire ... and there is no other reason

People will move on for improve their lives or maybe just for survival.

Shall I move on now??

Why I "pack my stuff" even I don't want to move on?? :(

Limit

Do you believe that everything has a limit?
maybe the limit has established only in your mind, and it doesn't exist in the reality.

Please.. give me a hint.....

Remember

Yestarday, I was feeling awful and extreamly exhausted.
I don't know what are the reasons of it.... :-(

While I'm in that kind of condition ... always .. REMEMBER... of something
and I wish I have it.. so I can reveal mine to the something itself.

I wish someday.. I can treat my GOD as the something and not HIS Creature, but until today it hasn't applied yet.

Fiuh... I wish.. ____ read...it..

Learn from Butterfly

A Caterpillar has already became a beautiful butterfly
None in this world will disgust again with it
Everybody is greatful to see it and always wonders with the colors

We remember that a beautiful butterfly is used to be a disgusting caterpillar.
After some suffers, it becames one of the most beautiful creatures.

Egg --> Caterpillar --> Pupa --> Butterfly
so it is really look like our life

Loss --> Suffer --> Wake Up --> Happy

The nice observation of this novel is:
  1. The time in butterfly phase is a lot smaller than the other phase, it is the same with happy;
  2. After the metamorphosis, the other can get the advantage, namely cocoon (i.e., especially silk). It is the same when we can overcome our problem, hopefuly somebody can take a lesson learned of it.
I think today... I can say that I have done all my "contemplation" and I can conlude what I need to do, and start enjoy my life again.

  • Never expect something as a return, then you'll never be regret
  • Learn from the mistakes is the best way to learn, for me... learn for the others mistakes is even better. ;-)
Learn learn LEARN lEARN and it won't be enough.

Smile

Lately, I put
SMILE and the worlds becomes better..
below of my signature in gmail mai. Actually, I'm not really sure about the validity that quote.

Today, I'm sure ...
Face everything with smile... because what happens to us has already been defined by HIM.
When HE decides about something than nothing can change it and never be changed.
So... face it
As believer, I believe it is the best for me, even most of the time, it is not the one that I want.

There is an amazon lays betweem the best one and the desired one.
Why there is no logical consequence about those concepts, life is easier if HE designs us always thought that we desiere the best one (desired -> best) or vice versa (best -> desired)

Smile in your face can give me a support even sometimes it is fake smile.
Once you can't smile event the fake one, then you don't have anything more.. to recover... and fall down until the bottom.

Another reason, why we shall smile if facing anything even the bad condition.
It because anything that happes to us that has been designed for use such that we can overcome. HE never gives something that beyond of our capabilities.
If it doesn't kill you than it'll make you stronger.

The last one, you shouldn't share any bad aura to others. By smiling, so you can cover up your sadness, and it won't make the others (of course, that care about you) worry

SMILE because we're always capable to do it, no matter happens

Priority

Today, we have a plan to arrange a dinner before everybody leaving for Summer Vacation.

Someone "special" is the one that has that initiative, that's very nice isn't it?

But unluckly, I have many things to be finished in two days.
I know my limit and my priority.

If I'm Yudis at several days ago.. so I'll skip my work and attending the dinner, and work like a hell afteward.

But, as I declare my self, that I need to change to move on and keep your priority and plan...
so I need to keep working til all things finish, and skip the dinner... :( [argghhhh]

Somehow, I don't agree with my decision but what can I do... the commandment has already declared and the word has already given. Man will be honored because what he says.

I wish she is upset (it means my existence is something) but she is understand with my situation.

Sorry..sorry sorry... sorry... :( WONDERFUL

Occhio non vede, cuore non fa male

That's another quote that I learn from the wonderful.

Many things we can do beyond our capability since we have a belief and a will.

If there is a will then there is a way
I can do many things as long as I still have a will or motivation to do so.

Motivation:
it is a feeling/a mental state that motivate you to do something. This thing comes from your sense (e.g., eyes, skins, ears, nose, etc).
It is a mental state/feeling. So, it is not necessary that is coming from the thought.

What are the sources of the motivation:
- any type of feelings: from hate until love
- any type of belief
- anythings

You do something because of you can or you want.
Ax1: doing --> can or want
You want to do something because you have motivation
Ax2: want --> motivation

Einstein said, "The nicest thing in the life is living for someone and not from someone"

Mmmm
because someone feels honorable to have X, then I'd do X
so I can say it is a motivation to do X

what happens if now, it embarrasses someone?
so I don't have a motivation anymore
P1: !motivation

I don't have any capability to end this.
P2: !capability <-> !can

Ax2: want -> motivation
!motivation -> !want (there is no motivation, means I shouldn't want anymore)

Ax1: doing -> can or want
!can and !want --> !doing

I think based on my logic I need to stop to do it.
And move on....
Today is 1 step, if tomorrow I keep doing it so at least becoming 2 steps.

Jika aku tak melihat maka mungkin lebih mudah aku tuk mulai melupakan dia.

Thanks for the last words WONDERFUL
