Wheels

Indonesia's famous phrase: "Life is like a spinning wheel".


Take a look at a spinning wheel , the part at top formerly, will go down to the bottom, and vice versa. That's how our lives as a human beings, sometimes at the top position, sometimes under. Life is so dynamic.
Perhaps now you are at the top, which can be represented with excelent profession , well-established financial , family harmony, a healthy body, easy in all affairs, and loved by many friends.
Or anyone else experiencing the down position, neglected study, jobless , poor finances, frequent illness, broken families, all matters were difficult, and people begin to pull away.
But rest assured, the fact shows that nothing lasts forever in this world, except God. Man's life turns. Just like day and night.
When at the top, be thankful for the gift of God, this is the time to share with others who need help.
When tested with the down position, be patience, while continuing to strive and pray to God to be helped out of the entanglement of various problems of life.
But anyway, about the top and bottom are relative. Not only because the rotation of the wheel, but how we view it.
If upside down like this, how do you think?

Jakarta_three years ago


Jakarta is capital city of the Republic of Indonesia. The citizen of Jakarta grow very fast, not only by the birth of new babies, but also by a big count of migration . It was caused by it’s hypnotize for most people, as Jakarta as the center of: Government's administration, economic, financial, business and entertainment.

It Can be said that we can find everything on this city. There are too much dreams here. Everyone eager to be a success man by fighting the hard of Jakarta life. Some people did, but many of them failed.

Traffic jam for almost all of roads , flood in every wet season, dirty river, and so on. I can’t imagine how if I live there, could I stand with all those stress? I respect every Jakarta citizens. Keep spirit to built a peaceful place for everyone.

Here are photos that I was took when I visit Jakarta on 2008. I hope there’s a blogger friend from Jakarta can tell me, how is Jakarta now, especially the places on my photos here.
