Good Bye my Hero...

Airport is a blender to mix peoples filling. Not only can produce laughter, but also can produce tears at the same time. Just like hospital. There you can be the most happiest person in the wold when you got a new family member, but then, you can also be the the most saddest man in the planet.

Saying goodbye actually is the same hard as saying welcome and nice to meet you. When you meet some one new, actually you have to be ready to say say goodbye to that person, cause goodbye is a stage that everyone should pass in their live.

I remember when I take my brother to the airport. I was trying so hard not to feel to much sad about it. But it seems that the harder I try, the harder it is to keep this tears of mine from falling.

Almost 2 weeks ago, me, the world has lost one great man that has encountered a great contribution to the music, video music world, dance world and stage performance. I just watch the memoriam of Michael Jackson, and I just realized how great and 'giant' he is. When I heard the news that Michael passed away, I just thought that..'well, everyone has to die someday, and what is he to me and what am I to him to have a really thought on his death'. But that thought was wrong. I just realized that me, and the world has lost a hero and a legend for the world.

I never knew Michael's personality. I heard so many bad rumors about him. In fact, I once had a black letter that said he has passed away since years ago and the one that is on television is his impostor. But after I saw his –or should I say a tribute show to him—show, all the sudden, those rumors are gone.

What Broke Shield said about him, is really touch my heart. I never knew that Michael was really lonely. And that I can imagine how hurt he was when the media tells that they are an 'odd couple'. Just because the physical difference between the two of them. Shields said that Michael is a loving and has a great sense of humor, why good guy always leave us soon? Martin Luther King's daughter told him how Michael made her mom smile despite the pain she felt at that time because of the stroke she has. Another Lady also told us how generous Michael is. Anyone who needs his help, he'll be there to help him, her or even them.

Michael was my idol. I remember when my dad bought me his album when I still on early year of my elementary school, and it was my very first cassette that I bought on my own wish. If I were a musician, Michael would be my biggest inspiration. I still can't believe that Michael has passed away. I still thinking that he will have a big surprise for us, and he suddenly awake from his coffin. But it didn't happened.

Michael is not just a hero for the world of art, but he is also a hero for the humanity and the green environment. His songs is an inspiration for me to make this world a better world to live, and we all can contribute to it in our own ways. Michale choose hiss path trough music, how about you?

Michael Joseph Jackson, will always be a legend, more than Elvis, more than The Beatles. He live in this world for almost 51 years, and among those years, he has given his live to music for 46 years, what a dedication. And what he has made was treasure, not just some sleazy cheap song that just made to make some money. He is one true artist.

It's an ironic. How a great guy like him but always feel lonely. How a loving guy like him being left by their wives. It can happened to everyone. It's a lesson, no one were created to be alone in this world. No matter how alone you feel out there, never have a thought that you are alone, there is someone out there that is willing to be your friend.
I am so lucky that I live in the same era that Michael lived. Even though I didn't know him personally,but I still can see his greatness and his geniousity. At least I can tell my children and grand children about him.

The world may mourn of his death. But we must let him go. He wont be lonely no more. He wont have to be afraid to show his face again. He wont be stress no more. He will be written in the history. He will be memorized by all the people in the world who lives in his era.

Goodbye Michael. God bless you.


There's is nothing that can't be done if we raise our voice as one. Make the world a better place, for you, me, and our next generations.

Perpolitikan Indonesia saat ini...

Indonesia sudah semakin bodoh hari demi hari. Bahkan untuk hasil pemilu pun masyarakat lebih mempercayai hasil polling survey. Tidakkah mereka tahu bahwa kelemahan dari teknologi informai adalah mudahnya penerobosan akses data? Bahkan para capres pun, sebagai calen orang nomor satu di negeri ini, sangat mempercayai dengan selalu menggunakan angka-angka dari hasil polling survey.

Dari awal saya memang sudah tahu siapa yang akan memenangkan pilpres 2009 ini, bahkan pasangan. itu akan menang dalam satu putaran. Tapi bukan berarti saya mendukungnya. Karena dari pemilu 2004 pun saya juga sudah tahu dia yang akan menang, cause what? Dia punya faktor 'X' yang mendukungnya. I cant tell you what that x is, cause I only has assumption based on what has happened.

Mulai 2004 Lembaga Survey 'Itu' mulai menjadi sangat terkenal, tapi lebih sering digunakan tiap pemilihan saja. Lalu semakin mendekat pemilu, semakin banyak lembaga-lembaga survey yang bermunculan, yang tentu saja bisa digunakan sebagai alat kampanye, karena hasil survey dapat membentuk opini publik.

Inget ga sama iklan kampanye SBY yang kemudian diprotes sama JK? Yang mengatakan dia akan menang hanya dengan satu putaran? Wow, ga nyangka gw LSI tu bisa jadi paranormal juga ya? Kalo emang lembaga survey seakurat itu, kenapa ga dari dulu pemerintah menggunakannya untuk pembangunan negara ini? Alat untuk memulihkan kesejahteraan rakyat? Kan alat itu bisa digunakan untuk menjaring opsi-opsi dari tiap mau mengambil kebijakan.

Rakyat memang tidak bisa disalahkan, karna selama ini mereka terus dibiarkan bodoh oleh pemerintah yang berkuasa. Tidak ada pendidikan politik bagi mereka. Yang mereka tahu adalah siapa yang bisa ngasih uang atau makanan pada saat ini, itulah yang mereka pilih, dengan itu secara tidak langsung budaya untuk berkolusi sudah ada dari mulai grass root kita. How ironic. Money politik tu bukan cuma uang secara fisik loh. Kenapa BBM harus mengalamai 3 kali penurunan? Padahal untuk jadi 6000 (sebelum turun lagi) hanya perlu satu kali, dan tepat sesaat sebelum rangkaian kegiatan pemilu dimulai. Dan lagipula yang rakyat bawah tidak tahu adalah bahwa yang nurunin itu bukan karena penguasa yang baik, tapi karena emang harga di pasaran dunia menurun. Padahal subsidi tetap aja dicabut..oiya..tututan IMF ya...

trus..kenapa BLT dan raskin sangat gencar pembagiannya pada masa kampanye? Di beberapa daerah, BLT dibagi dengan pesan bilang bahwa ini dari pak SBY ya..trus raskin juga dibagiin dengan stiker gambar SBY atau partai demokrat di atas kasrdusnya. Trus mereka tetep bilang kalo dia pembela rakyat?? padahal pake fasilitas negara untuk kampanye??

dia juga bilang di salah satu iklannya bahwa biaya pendidikan sekarang tidak lagi menjadi masalah. Pendidikan dimana yang biayanya murah?? biaya murah tu standarnya SBY berapa? Kalo standar rakyat murah dan tidak masalah itu kalo gratis..skrg dimana sekolah murah?? kecuali di beberapa kabupaten yang berkat bupati/walikota/gubernurnya, dan bukan PRESIDENNYA!!!! petani dan nelayan makin untung?? angka kemiskinan berkurang?? iya berkurang, orang standar penghasilan bagi orang miskin cuma 200rb aja ko perbulannya, makanya berkurang, kalo mau skalian aja yang dibawah 100.000, gw yakin berkurang lebih dari 10% kok. Ngaku sebagai 100 orang berpengaruh di dunia versi times untuk tahun 2009, oh my God..itu suatu kebohongan yang sangat mudah untuk di cek n ricek.

Dibilang makin pinter, ga juga. Dibilang makin bego, makin banyak ko yang punya prestasi pendidikan di internasional. Tapi kenapa masih aja mau dibego-begoin dengan kebohongan publik ya?

Jadi sekarang siapa yang bego dong? Yang boong atau yang diboongin??
