Cukup sudah........

Sampai sini sahaja perjuanganku,
Cukup sudah laungan suara hatiku,
Tiada ertinya untuk aku terus berdegil dalam pergelutan maya ini,
Yang perlu difahamkan, telah pun dijelaskan,
Yang perlu ditujukan, telah pun dikhabarkan,
Apa lagi yang perlu dibuktikan lagi?
Tahap kecerdikan bukan lagi penghalang pengetahuan,
Tetapi kedegilanmu-lah yang menutup mindamu,
Namun segalanya tidak akan lagi menjadi duri di dalam dagingku,
Kerana aku telah menyedari kebenaran yang sebenarnya,
Iaitu kebenaran Tuhan.

Di situ kamu mengakui keagungan Tuhan Maha pencipta dunia,
Di sini kamu menjerit menuntut hak milik kamu ke atas tanah ini,
Adakah tanah ini bukan sebahagian daripada dunia yang dicipta Tuhan?
Di situ kamu menuntut ilmu bahawa manusia adalah sama di mata Tuhan,
Di sini kamu mengangkat tinggi seseorang, dan memijak rendah seseorang,
Adakah tinggi dan rendah itu pengertian sama di mata Tuhan?
Di manakah kebenaran di sebalik pengetahuan sucimu?
Diberinya mata untuk melihat,
Diberinya telinga untuk mendengar,
Diberinya minda untuk berfikir,
Namun,
Dibutakan pula matanya,
Dipekakan pula telinganya,
Dibantutkan pula mindanya.

Hanya satu identiti kita,
Iaitu manusia.
Hanya satu kebenaran kita,
Iaitu makluk ciptaan Tuhan.
Dan hanyalah satu kelebihan kita,
Iaitu dicintai Tuhan.
Kepentingan bukan lagi berasaskan
kepada siapa yang lahir di sini dan siapa yang datang ke sini.
Kepentingan itu seharusnya ditujukan
kepada siapa yang terabai dan siapa yang serba kekurangan.
Mengapa kamu masih sibuk menuntut kebenaran daripada manusia,
sedangkan kebenaran itu hanyalah datang daripada Tuhan?
Tidak akan lagi aku peduli akan segala tindak-tandukmu.
Tidak akan lagi aku memaki terhadap segala kesalahanmu.
Fokusku hanya padamu Tuhan.

Terima Kasih, Tuhan Yesus kerana membuka mindaku.
Di kala aku menghadapi kesukaran,
anda mengingatkan aku kesukaran manusia lain.
Di kala aku sedih akan kejadian yang meimpa terhadapku,
anda mengingatkan aku kesedihan yang turut menimpa terhadap manusia lain.
Di kala aku kecewa dengan kekurangku,
anda mengingatkan aku kekekurangan yang dihadapi manusia lain.
Ingatan anda bukan untuk aku membuat perbandingan, tetapi
untuk aku mencari hikmah di sebalik kesukaran,
untuk aku belajar menerima kejadian hidup,
untuk aku sedar akan kelebihanku.
Yang terindah,
Di kala aku melakukan kesalahan di matamu,
anda tetap memaafkan aku dan menerima aku semula.
Andalah Tuhan ku.
Amen

Hypocrites........

I was so eager to go to Adam Lambert concert but I was disallowed financially. Then I came across a news that a group of "so called righteous Malaysian" wanna protest against the concert to be carried out. When I first saw this news the first thing came out from my mouth is, "What da hell, Again?...". I do not know whether is the same group of people or not, but to date, there are at least 5 incidents of protest to called off concerts in Malaysia involved name such as Avril Lavigne, Beyonce and Mariah Carey.

One of the Malaysia political party has once again launched a protest against an international singer who is coming to perform in Malaysia. This time is Adam Lambert. First of all, congratulation to the authority that allowed this protest to happen because you guys just showed the world that is ok for Indonesian to protest against Malaysia government and burned Jalur Gemilang. Secondly, you guys just showed the world that this is the way the people welcome international visitor. I do not know what will be improved from this but one thing for sure, Malaysia ranking on the "Most Ridiculous Country" chart is improved.

This party protest claimed that Adam Lambert is a gay icon that might bring negativity to the nation. So they determine to stop him from stepping into this country. Let me make this clear first. I am not a person who agree with gay or lesbian either. But my concern here now is that, is it the issue here is really about gay? As far as I know, this party in the past few years is having coalition with a few opposition political parties as their political strategy to fight against the ruling party. One of the party that they are working with is lead by a man who is currently being charged in the court of sodomizing another man. And they are ok with it? Let me make it clear for you, if a man is sodomizing another man, he is definitely a gay. But a gay will not necessary sodomize another man. So what part of gay that you protesters do not understand? As I said, the issue is not about the gay. Is just that these people wanna gain attention of the country to know they are really concern about the nation. Gay is never right in the law of nature. But at least gay people love will love their children(if they can have one). The gay won't do anything to hurt their children, and most importantly, the gay will never rape their own children.

As I said these people really prefer to waste their time holding some banners to protest rather than really go and cultivate their own people with more religious knowledge and faith of good behaviors. If Adam Lambert really managed to turn you people to gay, is also because of you people lack of spiritual values. To really know how prosper are you in spiritual and moral values is by overcome the
temptation, not denying it.

Let me give you people that claimed yourself "spiritual righteous " a point to ponder. In a case of two men who want to resist the temptation of gluttony. A man called 'A' is put in a room with no food or anything that can be consumed on. Another man called 'B' is put in another room which is packed with a lot of stuff that can be ate and consumed on. Both of them manage to resist the temptation by not eating anything in few days. But bear in mind 'A' is confined from food, and 'B' is exposed to a lot of foods. 'A' managed to resist the temptation is logically acceptable because even if he want to eat, there is nothing that can be ate. But for 'B', the success of overcoming temptation is the true success because even though he can eat the foods, he chose not to do it. This is because he hold strong to his spiritual objectives and discipline. Situation of 'A' represent the case of denying the temptation and 'B' is the case of overcoming temptation. With the wisdom and right mind of you that was given to you by God please judge yourself which of 'A' or 'B' has the true value of spiritual.

"A thief can live as holy as a priest if he is living in a world where there is nothing is worth to be stolen. But is the way of holiness that God wants from the people?"

Their Brand, Their Court, Our People

Seriously I do not why Proton want to prevent 1Malaysia F1 Team from using the name Team Lotus. Let us put aside about the legal right first. Both seems to have right of it and it will be decided by UK court.

Proton as we know belongs to the government. And now the government is promoting the cultural of motor sport. Well why have to bring all the disputes to each other about the naming right.

Perhaps we as public will look at this matter in a very simple way. Tony Fernandes manage to turn Air Asia into a global brand. With financial crisis arise and yet to maintain low cost services, Air Asia still making profit.
How about Proton? In the world do people really talk about Proton car? Well if it yes, I guess condemning is also a way of talking. And many of us knew that how badly Proton has performed before where the government has to use the People money to support Proton.

So judge yourself who should have the right on Lotus. And most importantly what is the point of having it without making use of it for greater good.

Perompak dan pencuri

Banyak yang telah diperkatakan mengenai sikap generasi kini yang yang tidak mengerti erti kemerdekaan. Secara peribadi saya juga berpendapat sedemikian. Saya bukanlah seorang saksi mahupun mangsa bagi perkara ini tetapi saya juga merupakan salah seorang "pesalah-pesalah" yang dimaksudkan. Keseriusan "kesalahan" saya adalah sehingga ke tahap di mana sambutan Kemerdekaan bagi saya hanyalah cuti rehat yang diberikan oleh pihak kerajaan. Pemimpin-pemimpin negara juga sering berharap sambutan Kemerdekaan pada setiap tahun dapat membawa kesedaran dan penghargaan kepada rakyatnya. Tahun 2010 sememangnya ada membawa perbezaan baru terhadap pandangan saya terhadap sambutan Kemerdakaan. Perbezaannya, saya sekarang mempunyai dua cuti rehat bagi sambutan Kemerdekaan. Saya sudah menyedari bahawa cuti sehari sememangnya tidak mecukupi dan mengahargai inisiatif kerajaan mewujudkan satu hari lagi cuti rehat dalam kalendar tahunan. Tahniah kepada pemimpin-pemimpin negara kita yang akhirnya berjaya mempupuk erti baru bagi sambutan Kemerdekaan tahun 2010.

Sering saya bertanyakan kepada sendiri mengapa saya tidak menghargai akan kemerdekaan dan kebebasan yang dapat dinikmati di dalam tanah air ini?

Tetapi....
adakah kita merdeka sekarang?

Kalau penjajah dulu bertindak mengeksploitasi negara ini demi kepentingan sendiri. Sekarang kita dapat lihat bagaimana kerajaan buatan kita sendiri yang terjebak dalam gejala rasuah mahupun tindakan-tindakan yang membelakangi nilai-nilai keagamaan, moral dan etika.

Memang adanya perbezaan antara penjajah dulu-dulu dan kerajaan negara kita pada hari ini. Perbezaannya adalah seumpama beza antara perompak dan pencuri. Dua sama hina cuma berbeza dari konteks kerja hina yang dilakukannya. "Perompak" dulu sememangnya secara terus terang merampas kekayaan orang demi kepentingan sendiri. "Pencuri" sekarang melakukan kerja-kerja kotor membelakangi orang demi kepentingan sendiri.

Jadi, adakah kita rakyat sendiri yang tidak tahu menghargai kemerdekaan, ataupun kerajaan sediri yang gagal mewujudkan suasana kemerdekaan di negara kita?

Independence does not mean to govern our own country, but to govern the country wholeheartedly and righteously. -Ray 2010-
