Remember...

Two simple words had driven so many questions...

When I wrote " CUKUP SUDAH..." (had enough...)
as my BlackBerry Messenger's Status, questions popped out and asked on what's been going on...

I responded to a dear friend with:
"CUKUP SUDAH jadi sahabatmu... kumau jadi...... (isi sendiri yah?)
(HAD ENOUGH to be your bestfriend... I want to be...... (please fill in)
and it's amazing how she responded with a line of laughter icons...
Well, if we can actually upgrade our stage of friendship from dear friends to other closer, friendlier and giving or sharing more encouraging things to each other, I guess that would be a splendour idea!

I'm so grateful for so many simple things occurred in my life.
The complications of life have given me the idea not to be too hard to myself, for I won't survive it alive anyway... ^_^
And I'm extremely grateful for opportunities beyond my imaginations that God has allowed me to experience along my journey of life.
And giving is becoming a word of wisdom and satisfactions of contributing in others' life, even though in the end I turned out to be the forgotten one.

Is it important to be the remembered one?
I believe we all have our own answers, attached with our own reasonable arguments.
But...
is it important to remember?
Have you heard, "Forgive and Forget...."
Why didn't that person write or say, "Forgive and remember...

If a word of "remember' represents something that caused you so much pain:
~ Remember that from DAY ONE of your life, you were enrolled into an informal lifetime school called life!
~ Remember that after the birth of a person called "YOU", a body given to you, like it or not, that's yours for the period this time around.
~ Remember that you have the honour to experience something that no one would want to experience...
~ Remember that you have received something beyond your understandings and this might be the best lesson ever!

For life is about experiencing lessons, no mistakes recorded, no grades attached, no scores counted, just lessons...
Try to remember beyond the things that you might never noticed before...

~ when you are resting below a shade of a tree
Remember that someone planted it there once...

~ when you are throwing something away,
Remember the process of experiments, the trials and errors attached to every effort on making it...

~ when you decide not to look at something that you don't want to get involve into,
Remember that God embrace you every morning with the same sunlight as a promise of a new day...

~ when you have to let go,
Remember that excepting irrelevant and stupid things are a part of embracing your inner strength to compromise more upon things in life.

In the end, I would like to change the terms of "Forgive and Forget....
into
"Forgive and Remember......"
and continue the sentence with thousands of great ideas of learning things in life...

Remember...

With love,

This is not a New Year's Poem... ^_^

.
Don't know what to do, don't know what to say...
I thought I'm a fortress, but I have stumbled like a clay...
I have nothing to wish, but I do have one thing to pray...
Even though you're not here, but I know your love is here to stay...
.
I'm not being romantic at the beginning of the year...
I'm simply want to share something true and clear...
that through the fire, the wall. or through the path of fear...
I know that I never walked alone, because I know that you're near...
.
And when a name appeared, questions are made...
I know you're smiling behind the shade...
For you know, that fame is something that may fade...
But what's within is something beyond the world's ability to trade...

A New Year Greetings to all

.
Maybe you're not close enough to hold your loved ones...

Or...

Perhaps you're not close enough to whisper 'I love you' to those that you cherish so dearly...

Maybe time crawls like a snail when you're waiting for something..

Or...

Perhaps it runs like a cheetah when you're enjoying an amazing moment of joy and happiness...
.
.
But I truly believe that things happened as the tapestry of greatness within, blessed to each one of us as a gift of life and hope...

By tears we cherished laughters...

By sadness we learned to spread our arms to hold...

By loosing we discover understandings..

And by counting the seconds to the years of our lives, we virtue the wisdom to believe that God allows us to experience HIS grand design to life itself...

New Year's eve are just another night..but it can be the new beginning for us to possess the faith that we have our share to build, to care and to hold others a little bit more every single day...

Have a full of blessed beginnings in this New Year of 2012...
May God be with each one of us...

always, withL.O.V.E
