Life Is So Simple

I have listened to the radio that so many people think about how to get something rather than what something can be given to the others.

Actually it is not easy to change this paradigm since we realize that yes we still need something to achieve and something to buy. Please give me! I do not have anything to share!

The old man said that "if we are talking about the money than the sky is the limit". Never enough!

So when we decide to share our part to the others? Is it after we are so rich and nothing that we want to buy anymore?

I have just met my friend two days ago. I was so surprised with the condition of my friend since it's only two years after decided to move to Jakarta he became a rich man! Only two years!

I was so curious and asked him the secret. Do you know what is his answered?

Life is so simple my friend. I never think twice when someone needs my help. I never think twice to give my money when someone asks me because he or she really needs it. I do it from my heart. I never think about the payback. Give it and forget it! That's all!
Is it that simple? It depends on your perception and the way how you think. What a minute! Do you see the above green words?

Stop thinking and just do it! The more time you think than the more time you loose your feeling to give and share. Trust me... you can make it simple.

Because life is so simple.

Finally I Write In English

Finally, I decide to write everything that catch by my eyes and my heart in English. It is not as simple as I thought :) but it does not really matter.

"You will never know if you don't want to try something and give up at the first place", that what my father always said to me.


Following is some reasons that I know why we should write in English:
1. English is an international language. The people around the world uses it as common language for interaction and communication, especially in business activity. Writing in English will guarantee more people understand what you want to say or what you think.

2. If you have a blog and wish more people come and visit it, please consider to write your post in English. Catching wider audience can give you more perceptions and the opinions will be diverse. You will be surprise that so many interpretations difference people that come to your blog.

3. It is more easy to monetize your blog or site as the advertisers would prefer to put their ads on English blog or site. Even though, some people does not care about the money as long as other people come and put comment on their blog or site, because they just want to share their opinion. But, come on! Money can buy everything but without money you can buy anything, right :)

4. By writing in English, you will be forced to open your dictionary more often, than ...waow... you can not believe that so many vocabulary are remembered by you now! Of course, it is easier to talk in English since you have so many alternative word to say :)

Do you know the other reason why we should write in English? Please share your opinion here ok :)
