Something to Ponder

A brief dialogue between a brazillian theologist Leonardo Boff and the Dalai Lama.

"Your holiness, what is the best religion ?"
(I thought he would say: "The Tibetan Buddhism" or The Oriental Religions, much older than Christianity")

Dalai Lama paused, smiled and looked me in the eyes...which surprised me because I knew of the malice contained my question.

He answered : " The best religion is the one that gets you closest to God. It is the one that makes you a better person".

To get out of my embarassment w/ such a wise answer, I asked : "What is it that makes me better ?"

He responded :
"Whatever makes you more compassionate,
More sensible,
More detached,
More loving,
More humanitarian,
More responsible,
More ethical."
The religion that will do that for you is the best religion"

I was silent for a moment, marvelling and even today thinking of his wise and irrefutable response :
"I am not interested my friend, about your religion or if you are religious or not.
"What really is important to me is your behaviour in front of your peers, family, work, community, and in front of the world".
"Remember,the universe is the echo of our actions and our thoughts".
"The law of action & reactions is not exclusively for physics. It is also of human relations.

If I act w/ the goodness, I will receive goodness.
If I act w/ evil I will get evil.

"What our grandparents told us is pure truth. You will always have what your desire for others.
Being happy is not a matter of destiny. It is a matter of options".

Finally he said :

"Take care of your Thoughts because they become Words.

Take care of your Words because they will become Actions.

Take care of your Actions because they will become
Habbits.

Take care of your Habbits because they will form your character.

Take care of your Character because it will form your Destiny, and your Destiny will be your Life....

Oh La La

Just got back from dinner at Taiwanese noodle at Loop wif oldfriends; Handi, Gyat2, & Yulia, continued by hanging around at Supermall.
It's like remembering the good old days when we used to hanging out with lots numbers of personal back then, while now the number is shrinking to only few people.
Nevertheless, number doesn't really count if we can have fun just by only a few, right?
Cheers! ;D

Sweet Evening Escapade

Today just downloaded 2 songs that I heard from Disney on Ice.
"Part of Your World" by Faith Hill & "Fly to Your Heart" by Selena Gomez. Me likey these songs. ♥
I Just knew there's a new modus of klepto in a department store. They go to the fitting room, & they just go out with the new outfit after they pull out all the tags, & left their clothes inside the fitting room.
Woww...what a crazy yet brave idea, right?
It's a fact that the world is getting crazier each day! It's so true that we should go with the flow, but we shall choose the right flow that may lead us to a good place, not the other way around! & always remember to have fun go mad along the flow, peeps! ;)

Happy Easter...

Happy Easter Day to those who celebrate it!
Today has been great. Yamcha in the morning at Shangrila, continued by picking up my cousins at Atom, then speeding to Jatim Expo to watch Disney on Ice again for the second time. Well...Actually I don't feel to watching it twice, however since they don't have companion to watching it since their parents were busy, so there I was being their temporary mommy for all evening.
After the show, we went to Pizza Hut for having early dinner, then sending them home afterward.
I feel so sleepy now. So lame yet excited thinking that tomorrow I should wake up early to starting the new working week over again.
Well..Que sera sera. Good night, all! *yawn*

Disney on Ice

I finally watched this Disney on Ice performance! ♥ It was a great 2 hours disney theme ice skating show.
Been wanting to watching it since last year, when Disney on Ice show was only held in Jakarta that made me unable to watch it due to distance matter. And I'm just so glad that I finally managed to watch it last friday. In the end, good thing is worth awaiting. ♡

Joyeux Anniversaire, Melissa!

This was taken on Melissa's birthday.
We were treated at Rucola Italian restaurant. Too bad I was coming late, so I only made it for a while, since Melissa was going to watching movie afterward.
It was also the night before Amel's wedding day. From Rucola I was heading to Fajar restaurant for attending Amel's Widodaren night. Meeting lots of my girls there. So happy to be surrounded by them! ♥

Mimo's Day!

It was Mimo's day!
-Eat, eat, and eat...
-Shopping
-Chichating
-Gossiping
-Wandering around
Well, that's what we do during Mimo's day! ^^

Casual Weekend

Last Saturday, I was terribly in a deep shit! So tense in the afternoon since I got stomachache that caused me bad mood all day.
At night, the tummy was getting better, so I was having dinner at Rucola with friends, continued to going to Kawi lounge for chichating. Well, my mood was turning better by then. At least, there's still some light occurs out of a bad day. ^^

Tei-ing

Here's 2 of the pretty brides that I was the bridesmaid of them back then.
It's been almost half year ever since, & one of them is already pregnant now, & the other is still waiting.
So happy having lunch with them last Thursday. Looking fwd for casual lunch like this again. :)

Two to Tango

The other day I was having this date with Nat2 as soon as the office hour ended. We were heading to TP for having dinner at Pizza Hut and just for window shopping.
Below was the salad kingdom made by Nat. I was kinda embarrassing firstly, but who cares anyway :p
Well...It takes two to tango, and sometimes it only takes two to have fun. ^^

Head Up, Ladies! Happy Kartini's Day!

Highlight of today:
-Having narcistic moments with office pals in our traditional costumes. I wore batik, while most of the others weore kebaya. We were taking pics over and over again to get the best pose. ^^
-Finally bought the tickets to watch Disney on Ice at Jatim Expo. It costs me a lot. 220k + entrance fee of 10k. I hope the show would be fantastic. *fingers crossed*

My Wish-List

It's my new wish-list. The bag with the same name as mine. Yes, it's 'Silvana Bag' by Fendi!
Anybody would buy me this, pleaseee......

The Switch

Just finished watching "The Switch", & a epilogue at the ending scene of the movie catches my attention. Overall it's a worth watching movie not to be missed :)

"Look at us...running around,always rush, always late
Guess that's why they call it human race.
But sometimes it slows down just enough for all the pieces to fall into place.
For fate works its magic & you're connected
Every once in a while with all the randomness something unexpected happens that pushes us all forward & the truth is when I'm starting to think...when I'm starting to feel ...is that human race isn't a race at all."

Voldefrog ♥
