2007: “I am not what happened to me, I am what i choose to become”
Monday, January 15th, 2007It’s now 2007… Since 18 years ago until now, time is still being a terrifying thing for me. So terrifying that every single moments: happiness, sadness, anger, even regrets would be forgotten as the time goes by. Like 911 said, "time waits for no one sure as the path that has been chosen, cannot be changed". When i was reviewing my life throughout 2006, i realize that many happiness happened that year, much more sadness i got to face, a bit anger still don’t wanna leave my life, and too many regrets accross my journey in 2006. One of my biggest regrets was about my study the previous term, which was so far away from what i wished and i thought would be. I am a person who used to be able to easily accept everything i had. By the time i received my study report, i learnt to barely feel the disappointment, but i didn’t know why i couldn’t easily tolereate this failure. Then i started to blame everyone i could assign the blame on until this 2007 came. I faced this new year differently in comparisson with the years before. I started 2007 with no commitments and no passion at all. But thank God, things that happened to me in early 2007 let me had another view points in seeing my own life. One conclusion i had: "I am not what happened to me, I am what i choose to become". Life is full of choices, even life itself is an option for everyone. How can you be happy if you don’t set yourself to be happy whatever the environments are?! Another important thing is realizing that our lives don’t belong to us 100-percent-ly, we are just being trusted to live the life we posses right now by God. I was very blessed with someone… he told me not to build my own life without consulting to the creator of the life itself. Remember that our God is the best consultant we could expect. I know that no one could change even a single part in his life which had been happened, neither do I. No one could stop the time and no one could reach the forgotten moments back as well. But one thing i keep in mind, "I won’t be afraid of time anymore. I’ll let time brings all my sadness, regrets, even my happiness because in the end of my life, i would see how good i am because God let all the happiness, all the sadness, all the anger, and all the regrets happened which have made me to be the best Gary i could be ". Let us work our life!!!_
