new year's revolution

maybe I'm 20 days too late to write this, but it's okay for me. it's my blog, and i'll do everything I want in it :)

well,
new year's eve could be one of greatest moments in a year, or the worst one if you have nothing to do on that day.
I'm from a family who likes to enjoy every single holiday season we have, and yet we have never let any holiday season passed without celebrating it. But in 2010, many things happened and caused us lots of problems to be handled.
First is, my cousins came and stayed during the Christmas till new year because my mom wanted to pay their study fees (read : give scholarships).
The second is, I have to participate in my church's service which is my duty.
The third, my sister's feet which always get so sensitive need to be consulted with the doctor because of its condition that got worsen.

So, the decision had been made. And we didn't go anywhere special for the new year's eve. We just ate out at night, and I think it's okay. But my mom got disappointed at that day. I knew that even though she didn't really express it at the day.

And it's such an IMPORTANT MESSAGE to ALL CHILDREN in the world : Be more caring to your moms and dads. sometimes they just get so upset but they just can't express it. So, rather than being punished and scolded by their exploding anger, it would be better to keep your attitude in a right way.

At midnight, near the year's changing, my sister and I were busying ourselves with our own stuffs. I kept playing the computer while she was reading her novel.
My dad looked outside to see the fireworks. But my sister and I have never really enjoyed to see fireworks with our family. So we did and said nothing.
And then, just so suddenly my mom came out from her room and threw away her anger to us.
She punished me with not buying me a new cellphone which IS REALLY NEEDED BY ME right now, also to cut off my internet cable. I didn't really remember what she said to my sister, but really.. Making your mom angry at you on new year's eve is such a HORRIBLE thing to do.

yeah, every single thing that happens to me really always gives me something to learn about.
And what I learn in this, is that I need a revolution to think more about my family,
because honestly I didn't do that so much lately.
Family is important yeah, but yourself is important too.
SO EVERYTHING IS NOT GOOD IF YOU HAVE IT TOO MUCH :)

may you all readers have at least one new revolution thing to do this year!

The importance of reading BIBLE

Well, today's post maybe for some people only towards for christians. But honestly, even Mahatma Gandhi did read bible in his lifetime :) And yet now I'm just going to share what I passed these days.

Actually, in times when you think your prayer for years hasn't got answered by God, your faith -no matter how hard you denied- is fading off. It's what I was going through.
And I just got to such a stupid opinion last night : "Is God really exist?"

what a moron question, because I've been given SO MANY wonderful amazing experiences with God before, and yet in hard times I could think of that.
But, in the morning when I woke so early as usual to read bible, I came to remember whole stuffs that God has done to me. How often He gave me the same experience with what my daily devotional I read in the morning, how awesome His ways out of problem that He always given to me, or how amazing His grace to calms me down.

It's true that sometimes your daily devotional hours are boring. But then you'll realize how important it is.


Human lives not only by bread, but with God's words :)
