Sapi's thoughts

Alex and Merry are sitting
alone in
the park
one night....

Alex: I guess we are the left overs in this
world

Merry: I think so...All of my friends have
boyfriends and we are only the 2 persons left
in
this world with out any special person in our
life

Alex: Yup I don't know what to do

Merry: I know! We'll play a game

Alex: What game?

Merry: i'll be your girl friend for 30 days and
you
will be my boy friend

Alex: That's a great plan in fact i don't have
nothing to do much this following weeks...

DAY 1:

They watch their first movie and they both
touched
in a romantic film

DAY 4:

They went to the beach and have a
picnic...Alex
and Merry have their quality time together

DAY 12:

Alex invited Merry to a circus and they
ride
on a Horror House....Merry was scared
and
she touched Alex's hand but she touched
someone else's hand and they both
laughed...

DAY 15:

They saw a fortune teller down the road and
they
asked for their future advice and the fortune
teller
said: "My darling, Please don't waste the time
of
your life...Spend the rest of your time together
happily" Then tears flow out from the teller's
eyes

DAY 20:

Merry invited Alex to go to the hill and
they
saw a meteor...Merry mumbled something

DAY 28:

They sat on the bus and because of a bumby
road
Merry gave her first kiss to Alex by
accident

DAY 29:

11:37pm

Merry and Alex sat in the park where
they
first decided to play this game...

Alex: I'm tired Merry...Do you want any
drinks? I'll buy you one.. I'll just go down the
road

Merry: Apple Juice that's all

Alex: Wait for me....

20mins later... a stranger approached
Merry

Stranger: Are you a friend of Alex?

Merry: Why yes? What happened?

Stranger: A reckless drunken driver ran over
Alex and he is critical in the hospital

11:57pm

The doctor went out of the emergency room
and
he handed out an apple juice and a letter

Doctor: We found this in Alex's pocket

Merry reads the letter and it says:

Merry, This past few days, i realized you
are
a
really cute girl and i am really falling for
you..Your
cherish smile your everything when we
played
this
game..... Before this game would end...I
would
like
you to be my girl friend for the rest of my
life....
I
love you Merry....

Merry crumples the paper and shouted:

"Alex ! i don't want you to die... I love
you...Remember that night when we saw a
meteor, I mumbled something... I mumbled
that I
wish we would be together forever and never
end
this game. Please don't leave me Alex... I
love
you! You cannot do this to me!"

Then the clock strikes 12

Alex's heart stop pumping

THEN IT WAS THE 30TH DAY

they
are still here...

Man...I sure wish that I can have the ability to come up with a solution like this..I wish I could be as wise..

Sekelompok anak kecil sedang bermain di
dekat
dua jalur kereta api.

Jalur yg pertama adalah jalur aktif (masih
sering dilewati KA),sementara jalur kedua
sudah
tidak aktif.

Hanya seorang anak yg bermain di jalur yg
tidak
aktif (tidak pernah lagi dilewati KA),
sementara lainnya bermain di jalur
KA yg masih aktif.

Tiba-tiba terlihat ada kereta api yg mendekat
dgn kecepatan tinggi,
dan kebetulan Anda berada di depan panel
persimpangan yg mengatur arah KA tsb.

Apakah Anda akan memindahkan arah KA tsb
ke
jalur sdh tidak aktif dan menyelamatkan
sebagian
besar anak kecil yg sedang bermain ?

Namun hal ini berarti Anda mengorbankan
seorang
anak yang sedang bermain di jalur KA yg tidak
aktif.
Atau Anda akan membiarkan kereta tsb berada
di
jalur yg seharusnya?

Mari berhenti sejenak dan berpikir keputusan
apa yang sebaiknya kita ambil ?

Pikirkan baik-baik jawaban Anda...., dan setelah

Anda yakin dengan jawaban Anda, baru Anda
teruskan membaca ke bawah.

Sebagian besar orang akan memilih untuk
memindahkan arah kereta dan hanya
mengorbankan jiwa seorang anak.
Anda mungkin memiliki pilihan yg sama
karena dgn menyelamatkan sebagian besar
anak
dan
hanya kehilangan seorang anak adalah sebuah
keputusan yg rasional dan dpt dianggap baik
secara moral maupun emosional.

Namun sadarkah Anda bhw anak yg memilih
untuk
bermain di jalur KA yg sudah tidak aktif,
berada di pihak yg benar karena telah memilih
untuk bermain di tempat yg aman?

Di samping itu, dia harus dikorbankan justru
Krn kecerobohan teman2nya yang bermain di
tempat
berbahaya.

Dilema semacam ini terjadi di sekitar kita
setiap hari.
Di sekolah, di kampus, di kantor, di keluarga, di
masyarakat, bahkan di dunia politik.

Pihak minoritas harus dikorbankan demi
kepentingan mayoritas.
Tidak peduli betapa bodoh dan cerobohnya
pihak
mayoritas tersebut.

Nyawa seorang anak yang memilih untuk tidak
bermain bersama teman-temannya di jalur KA
yang
berbahaya telah dikesampingkan.
Dan bahkan mungkin kita tidak akan
menyesalkan
kejadian tersebut.

Salah satu Indo_Amrik Crew yg men-forward
cerita ini
berpendapat bahwa dia tidak akan mengubah
arah
laju kereta karena dia percaya anak-anak yang
bermain di jalur KA yang masih aktif
sangat sadar bahwa jalur tersebut masih aktif.

Akibatnya mereka akan segera lari ketika
mendengar suara kereta mendekat.
Jika arah laju kereta diubah ke jalur
yg tidak aktif maka seorang anak yg sedang
bermain di jalur tsb pasti akan tewas, krn dia
tidak pernah berpikir bhw kereta akan menuju
jalur tsb.

Disamping itu, alasan sebuah jalur KA
dinonaktifkan kemungkinan karena
jalur tersebut sudah tidak aman.

Bila arah laju kereta diubah ke jalur yang
tidak aktif,maka kita telah membahayakan
nyawa
seluruh penumpang di dalam kereta.

Dan mungkin langkah yang telah ditempuh
untuk
menyelamatkan sekumpulan anak dengan
mengorbankan
seorang anak, akan mengorbankan lagi ratusan
nyawa penumpang di kereta tersebut.

Kita harus sadar bahwa hidup ini penuh dengan
keputusan sulit yg hrs dibuat.

Dan mungkin kita tdk akan menyadari bhw
sebuah
keputusan yang cepat tdk selalu menjadi
keputusan
yg benar.

Satu lagi yang perlu diingat.... !!!

Sesuatu yang benar tidak selalu disukai dan
sesuatu yang disukai tidak selalu benar ....

people...people...people...tsk tsk tsk..
Even after 22 years of living, and eventually knowing, it never ceases to amaze me of how imperfect we are.
Well...despite of all the imperfections there are in the world, I just want to discuss one thing that kinda bugs me for this past month..(or year, even?)
Do you know some people who seem to strive to be seen as "nice" for the world to see?
The kind of people who would leave their garbage for others (or maybe, for people who they call their "best friends") to take care of, just so the world would only see the good side of them, and not their flaws?
This kind of people rely on having so-called good friends who are outspoken and, may I say, braver than them, so these "nice" people can simply talk to their good friends about their problems, and expect their good friends will take care of the garbage for them?
And as you could have already guessed, their good friends will become the bad guy for the world to see.
Sometimes the "bad guys" don't realize it at all that they're being pathetically used by their so-called good friends. And even if they eventually realize it, it will already be too late. They've already become the bad guy to the world. And nobody wants to listen to the bad guy, of course. Their revelation will be viewed as jealousy to others. My..my..my.. :)
However, I myself, can't say that I blame those devilish "angels". I mean, who doesn't want to be liked by others? It does make your life so damn easier, now doesn't it? I want to be liked by others too, of course! But somehow, outangel-ing (don't protest, this isn't a word but I know you know what I'm saying ;p) people is just not worth it.
My conscience is a killer! I'd rather sleep peacefully at night.
Oh and by the way, I'm in a totally Zen mode right now (hehehe). And I'm not writing this in a state of anger or anything. This is just something for us to think and discuss about.

You Are a Visionary Soul

You are a curious person, always in a state of awareness. Connected to all things spiritual, you are very connect to your soul. You are wise and bright: able to reason and be reasonable. Occasionally, you get quite depressed and have dark feelings. You have great vision and can be very insightful. In fact, you are often profound in a way that surprises yourself. Visionary souls like you can be the best type of friend. You are intuitive, understanding, sympathetic, and a good healer. Souls you are most compatible with: Old Soul and Peacemaker Soul
