Rabu, one day before puasa

Hari ini rabu, besok puasa mulai. Gua sih gak ikut2an puasa, anyway orang2 kantor bakalan pulang jam 4, jadi jalanan pasti selama sebulan bakal macet udah dari jam 4an.. Tapi selama bulan puasa apakah perilaku orang di jalan akan berubah? Tetep ngotot, gak mau kalah, marah2? Mungkin sama aja. Kalo emang bisa berubah jadi lebih bagus, kenapa gak dibikin puasa aja 1 tahun penuh yah... ?

Bbrp hari lalu liat di TV ada liputan salah satu ormas yang berlindung dibalik salah satu agama, berdemo/pawai di jalan dengan ajakan menghormati bulan puasa. Tapi terkenal juga itu ormas yang paling gak menghormati agama lain. Suka bikin onar, bikin kacau, dsb. Terus, maksudnya apa yah? "Yang penting orang menghormati ajaran agama gua, gak penting bagi gua untuk menghormati ajaran agama lain" begitukah maksudnya? Sok bikin razia ke tempat hiburan malam (kecuali yang bayar upeti), menghancurkan botol2 bir dan membawa pulang whisky, vodka, dll (pernah dikemukakan Gus Dur sekali waktu ketika masih jadi presiden)

Setiap agama berbeda, nilai, sejarah, dan ajaran. Kenapa mesti dipertentangkan? Kenapa mesti dibanding2kan?

Yah emang kalo soal agama, gua skeptical. Boro2 agama orang, agama sendiri aja gua udah gak percaya.

Spices of Life

We're in the first week of september already, and with my dog's snoring, I'm writing this blog...

Waking up after 7 hours sleep.... got home at 3am last night and only woke up with a heavy head due to some alcoholic drinks I gulped last night. Friends asked me to go clubbing as it's the last week before Ramadhan starts, during which no club is opening like normal. So blowfish there we went...
It was a great club, actually, met some friends from the office too, many good looking people. Spotted some jakarta's celebrities also.. But in that place, actually you're on your own, you're alone inspite of all the music, people. You're just personal. Or am I wrong?

Anyway, it's september, we're 3.5 months away from 2008.
I'm opening my heart after the terrible incident last month and well, what can I say.. need to open my eyes, and brain though. I can not accept everyone who likes me, right? I mean, it's a very difficult thing to explain, but it's a dream comes true when the person you like, likes you back.. But things do not always happen that way. We like a person who doesn't feel the same, or vice versa.. And it's normal, it's the spices that adds up to our food of life..
