Hidup harus berisi
Kehidupan penuh makna
Memberi menggenapi mencapai

Tahun baru semangat baru
Menyampaikan harapan akan penyertaanMu sepanjang waktu.
Te Deum Laudamus
Jakarta, 31 December 2022
Menyongsong tahun baru 2023, kami serahkan semua padaNya.
Change needs action to happen,
Bigger change require massive action,
Still it has to start somewhere,
Vision of the future brings energy to it.
Still,
Nothing should be overdone,
Is it real or is it fake ..
Think and judge for yourself.
(Batavia, 2016)
** mumble about digital manipulation **
Children is the center of life,
Where the heart of every parent lies,
All the effort and hardwork,
Are dedicated to the children.
Children are so dynamic,
They roam the world without fear,
Nothing can stop them,
From going after what they want.
They don’t pretend to be someone,
As they are what they are,
The presence of laughter, joy and happiness.
A gift from God for us.
[Cirebon 2014]
Everybody must go through this stage,
Being born to the world,
Still pure without sin,
Everything is limited.
So do this mask character’s dance,
White resemblances a baby,
Movement is minimal,
Spirituality is the key.
[Cirebon 2014]
Note:
This is from a photo trip organised by Focus Nusantara and Fujifilm Indonesia to Cirebon.
Working with steel and welding machines,
Creating new structures for better buildings,
Man worked hard in his old workshop,
The art of arc welding mastered by experience,
Nothing can stop the will of a person,
But himself.
