Vesak Day

“Thousands of candles can be lit from a single candle, and the life of the candle will not be shortened. Happiness never decreases by being shared.” -Lord Buddha

Today is one of my very special day, you know what? I was accidentally being a members of the committe of Vesak Day in central of Java, I really enjoy to be with my friends and maybe I am the only one of those who are from the different religion, I mean all my friends are Buddhist.
I was invited by my friend Adi to join them and I really excited for it, hahaha  :)
This is such a great moment ever in my life,
It's Sunday and very burning hot day, I woke up in the morning and getting ready to attend for the celebration of it, I went to Prambanan temple, near to Sewu temple the place which usually used for the rogation. Being a member of it gives me some lessons in life, I am the human being and like the others we are mutual need one and each other in our life.

16 Of The Best Coffee Quotes


I’ve come across more than a few funny, sometimes thought provoking coffee quotes and here’s a few of my favorites. I know that I’m missing some good ones, so if you have any, please leave them in the comments at the end.

Viva La Vida

This song keeps stuck in my head on the top and wherever I go, I always hear everyone is playing this song and I am so adicted to it, OMG! Chris Martin has the great voice ever!! I adore his voice so much the this song is so lyrical, my morning coffee would never be completed without listening to this song! 
Oh man! I'm  just loving it! <333

"Viva la Vida" is a song by the British alternative rock band Coldplay. It was written by all members of the band for their fourth album, Viva la Vida or Death and All His Friends (2008), and was released as the second single from the album. On the album, this song segues directly into the next track, "Violet Hill". Viva la Vida means "Long Live Life" in Spanish.
The lyrics to the song contain historical and Christian references, and the track is built around a repeating string section with a percussion background.
The song was released on 13 June 2008 as the album's second single, debuting to critical and commercial success. "Viva la Vida" reached the top spot of the UK Singles Chart and Billboard Hot 100, becoming the band's first number-one single in both the US and UK. The song won the Grammy Award for Song of the Year at the 51st Grammy Awards in 2009. The song became the sixth song in digital history to reach the 4 million mark in paid downloads. It has sold 5.2 million copies in the United States by November 2011, becoming the third best-selling song by a British act in the digital era.
 
Background of the song:  The song's Spanish title, "Viva la Vida", is taken from a painting by 20th century Mexican artist Frida Kahlo. It translates into English as "long live life." When asked about the album's name Chris Martin, referring to Frida Kahlo's strength, enduring polio, a broken spine, and a decade of chronic pain, said: "She went through a lot of [things], of course, and then she started a big painting in her house that said 'Viva la Vida', I just loved the boldness of it."
During the album's production, "Viva la Vida" was one of the songs that had polarized each member's opinion over which version they should choose. In an interview, vocalist Chris Martin recalled: "We did quite a few different versions and went round the houses a bit and eventually settled on those treatments for it."

I used to rule the world
Seas would rise when I gave the word
Now in the morning I sleep alone
Sweep the streets I used to own

I used to roll the dice
Feel the fear in my enemy's eyes
Listen as the crowd would sing
"Now the old king is dead! Long live the king!"

One minute I held the key
Next the walls were closed on me
And I discovered that my castles stand
Upon pillars of salt and pillars of sand

I hear Jerusalem bells are ringing
Roman Cavalry choirs are singing
Be my mirror, my sword and shield
My missionaries in a foreign field

For some reason I can't explain
Once you go there was never
Never an honest word
And that was when I ruled the world

It was the wicked and wild wind
Blew down the doors to let me in
Shattered windows and the sound of drums
People couldn't believe what I'd become

Revolutionaries wait
For my head on a silver plate
Just a puppet on a lonely string
Oh who would ever want to be king?

I hear Jerusalem bells are ringing
Roman Cavalry choirs are singing
Be my mirror, my sword and shield
My missionaries in a foreign field

For some reason I can't explain
I know Saint Peter won't call my name
Never an honest word
But that was when I ruled the world

I hear Jerusalem bells are ringing
Roman Cavalry choirs are singing
Be my mirror, my sword and shield
My missionaries in a foreign field

For some reason I can't explain
I know Saint Peter won't call my name
Never an honest word
But that was when I ruled the world

Crazy Love


Cerita ini berawal dan tidak berakhir, aneh sih kedengaran nya tapi yah begitulah yang ingin aku tulis, mungkin banyak dari sebagian kehidupan kita yang tanpa sadar mengalami hal serupa, ketika masalah yang tiba-tiba datang tanpa henti nya namun tanpa sadar kita merasakan kok sudah selesai yah masalah nya, sampe bingung juga bagaimana akhirnya... sekedar intermeso aja, dulu nya aku buka nya orang yang suka menulis, apalagi menulis hal-hal yang bersifat pribadi, tapi sungguh anehnya aku punya buku diary dan sama aja sih jarang digunakan juga, paling cuman buat nulis no hp teman sama alamat nya, mengingat aku orang nya yang sering lupa akan hal-hal sepeleh kyk gituan! haha
Beberapa hari ini tuh aku selalu merasa seperti terasingkan dan sering banget buat mencari2 pencitraan diri, tapi kyknya itu gak ngefek banget, aku diajakrkan satu hal baru yang entah apa namum aku selalu bersyukur buat setiap detik2 hidup yang aku jalani sekarang ini, hal yang aku dapatkan itu sunggu luar biasa, malam itu tanpa sengaja aku mendengar sebuah wawancara di radio, itu udah agak larut sih jadi tidak terlalu fokus buat dengerin sampe akhir tapi ada satu inti pokok dari wawancara itu, dimana aku mendengar tentang pengakuan seorang pemuda tentang cara hidupnya sampe dia bisa sukses, sebenarnya sih simple kalo misalnya mau sukses, katanya sih begitu, dalam hati aku lalu berkata, kok orang ini songong banget ya? gimana caranya tuh? lalu timbul lah rasa penasaran itu sendiri, dia lalu menjelaskan tentang rasa percaya diri, aku sih udah percaya diri, kataku dalam hati, percakapan yang monoton itu terjadi dengan sendirinya, seakan adanya perang batin antara saya dan semua kebiasaan buruk saya, si pemuda itu lalu berkata, engkau harus melepaskan suatu hal yang kamu nilai itu penting, oh what? mempertahankan aja sulit kok malah melepaskan? jangakan melepaskan, buat mencara aja sulit kok malah melepaskan, namun aku salah dan keliru, dia menjelaskan tentang suatu hal yang jauh berbeda, kalo misalnya kamu punya kebiasaan buruk itu seakan menguasai hidupmu, itu merupakan suatu hal penting, kok bisa itu dikatakan hal penting? iya karena dia merasuk kedalam semua jiwa mu dan merubah pola pikirmu ke arah yang salah, makanya kamu harus melepaskan semuanya itu, oh wow! ternyata begitu, pada saat itu udah sekitar jam 2 malam dan aku gak bisa tidur lagi, seperti biasa alo gak bisa tidur pasti karena masih lapar, atau galau gitu *bahasa zaman sekarang* hahaha *senyum maklum*
Aku sungguh bersyukur karena Tuhan tuh mengizinkan banyak hal baru terjadi dalam hidupku, hal yang menurutku tidak penting sama sekali pun terjadi dalam hidupku, aku gak harus nulis semua detailnya juga yah, tapi begitulah yang aku dapatkan akhir-akhir ini, awalnya aku bukan perokok tapi sekarang malah gak ngerokok sehari aja bisa gila, dan sementara menulis ini pun aku ngerokok (for your information aja sih) haha
tapi syukurnya sudah gak seperti dulu lagi, jadi itu bukan seperti suatu kebutuhan utama dalam hidupku, dimana mau ngerokok aja barulah aku ngerokok, itu suatu peningkatan juga sih menurutku, aku bukan orang yang sempurnah (yah iyalah lah menurut lo?) aku punya banyak kekurangan, terutama dalam masalah percintaan #eh kok malah sampai curhat gini yah? hahaha
Bebarapa waktu silam aku sempat ketemu seorang wanita, dia cantik (secara subjektif aja saya ngomongnya) karena cantik versi tiap orang itu beda-beda. hahaha dan kamu tau apa yang dia ngomong? dia mneyukaiku, aku sempat shock juga mendengar hal ini, what? seberapa seriuskah dia? I thoush it was a joke! but I was wrong, because she told someone that she liked me too and that person was telling me just like she did! Oh man!! I'm flying!!!
Tapi seperti yang aku bilang sebelumnya tadi bahwa aku kurang ahli juga dalam masalah percintaan jadi saya serahkan saja pada sang waktu, biarlah itu berjalan, let it flow!! My heart is beating and I feel something different, jadi intinya aku juga punya rasa yang sama, tapi sayangnya dia juga tinggal di kota yang berbeda dari ku, jauh (kalo jalan kaki haha) Jadi sekarang semuanya belom jelas, aku belom ngungkapin apa yang aku rasakan ke dia, sungguh aku mempermainkan hatiku sendiri (eh ciyeee bahasanya) Hahaha
Aku selalu berharap suatu hal dari dia, yang penting dia mau terima aku apa adanya bukan aku ada apanya, sebab aku bukan orang yang bisa dituntut lebih, cinta yang tulus tidak butuh paksaan dan cinta yang abadi akan selalu kembali walaupun telah diterpa lamanya waktu dan jauhnya jarak.
Mungkin aku harus lebih bisa peka terhadap hal-hal yang seperti ini, aku perlu belajar banyak hal.
Ini hanya curhatan malam ku, curhatan yang radah-darah error, tapi itulah kenyataan yang aku alami akhir-akhir ini. semuanya berawal tapi berakhir tanpa pamit.
Just because you love someone doesn't mean you miss her. I never miss her in fact buat I have a faith that I will meet her someday and I will try to fix every mistakes that I did before! :D
