Are You Lonely Tonight?

Are you lonely tonight
are the stars not so bright
as they were when we loved eagerly,

Does your heart skip a beat
when you try to repeat
the vows that we made in the dark

how could we ever know
that our love would still glow
even though we are worlds apart

Now our love must sustain
all the burden and pain
'till we meet in that sweet bye and bye

(I just woke up....)

Fall

The crispness of fall
awakens us to our senses
It's back to serious work
and up go our defenses.

The beauty of colors
lingers throughout the cold
It helps us battle the drabness
and make us staunch and bold.

just a moment!

Just take a moment of rest and that's it. I realize how fragile I am when I found myself powerless and so dependent. In two weeks I struggled with my own illness. I got malaria, the disease that is very rarely in the USA. The doctors took time to find out what was going on! I got high fever with severe headache. Three times I went to Hospital and the result was the same I had no problem. But in the third time I convinced the doctors that from the symptom I knew it was malaria. Finally after they took my blood twelve times, they identified the disease. I just wonder that in the USA, the most powerfull country in the world, the doctors don't know malaria. That's unbelievable. Three days in the hospital alone Almighty God......that's enough for me to know that I can't live without activitity. I say very often that I never get sick. Apprently the malaria has been staying in my body since last year when I worked in Mentawai Island. Now I'm getting better and start enjoying my daily life. I have to wake up in the morning and prepare everything. Since I moved from Milwaukee I have different habitual activity. Here I'm busier first of all I have two classes in the evening. Anyway nobody is perfect.....it's important to do the best. The show must go on! I just need to take a moment of rest!

Love

When cupid's arrow
falls on a broken heart

The chances are great
that you will part.

For the greatest lover
in all the world

Can't take the anguish
that is unfurled,

When deep inside
her maiden chest,

Is a love that was
never meant to be blessed.

Poem for Idle Moment

I went searching for love
and you were there all the time
How could I have been so blind

I went searching for love
but I couldn't admit
That without you I'd go out of my mind

I went searchng for love
but my heart wasn't in it
For you still hadn't told me you cared

I went searching for love
and found you everywhere.
Why couldn't it have been ours to have shared.

COGITO ERGO SUM!

Bussy

I can't believe it nine days without publishing anything! But that's the reality. I was realy busy this week first of all, I had to go to the retreat and register my courses this semester. But anyway everything is going well. Six weeks in Philadelphia and five days in New York made me happy especially that moment enables me to know the american society. From the room in the third floor I manage everything to get used to in many kind of bussyness. This coming semester I will have four courses (12 credits) and 1 course during J-term. Fortunately I could transfer all my courses from Indonesia. That means I will finish my M.Div program in two years. Thanks for everybody that helps me by advising and encouraging me in this moment. I can't tolerate anymore my idleness. Irealize that idleness is begun by tolerating bad habits. Procrastinator is realy my weakness. I hope everything is going OK.
