Beautiful Prayer

A running championship for kids was held that morning. The sky was clear and the air was most fresh. Stands were crowded with spectators. Contestants lined up and prepared themselves just behind the starting line. One was seen clasping both her hands muttering an unheard prayer.

The whistle was blown and the contestants started run with all their might toward the finish line. In a tight race, the girl who prayed turned out to be the star that morning. She crossed the finish line first and won the championship.

At the medal ceremony she was asked if she was glad that her prayer was answered. She said that she was happy and said that she did not pray to win. She thought that it would not be fair to pray and ask God to make her victorious and beat all other contestants.

She was then asked what her prayer was about. She answered she asked God to give her strength, so that she would not cry if she lost the race.

What we have become ?

A young rich looking executive man went inside a coffee shop. With all tables taken, he went to a table occupied by a luscious young woman.

"Do you mind ?"
"None at all" the hot tie replied.

Not long after, the man tried to open a conversation, "Say, will you sleep with me for USD 50,000 ?"
"Yes, I will for USD 50,000," the woman replied.
After a pause, "What about for USD 100?" the man asked.
The woman replied with a raised voice "What do you think of me, a slut ?"
... "Well, I think we have already defined what you are, I am just trying to bargain."

To My Parents

Father

When I was small, you took me by the hand.
Father you should know I finally understand.

You taught me wrong from right, and how to live.
You gave the greatest gift that one could give.

You never let me down, you made me strong.
When I made mistakes, when I was wrong.

Some days we'd laugh, and some days we'd fight.
Somehow you knew one day, I'd say you were right.

You're with me in every word I say, in every hour of every single day.
In all I do, I'm just a part of you.

You lived your life for us, that was your plan.
Those hands that never take, they worked the land.
Hands that never take, can only give.
And because of you, I know how to live.

You're with me in every word I say, in every hour of every single day.
In all I do, I'm just a part of you.

Father just one thing.
You always knew.
Every word you said to me was true.

Kasih Ibu

Kasih ibu,
Kepada beta,
Tak terhingga sepanjang masa.

Hanya memberi,
Tak harap kembali,
Bagai sang surya, menyinari dunia.

I would like to dedicate these beautiful song lyrics to my parents. If we believe in reincarnation then I am sure I have done a lot of good things in my previous lives.

Little Fighter

Are you cryin' tonight ?
Are you feelin' alright ?

I'll tell the world that you were down on your luck.
You were one of the kind, one who would never give in.
Even when they put a price on your head.

Has anyone heard the tales you tell ?
Or seen the scars you wear ?
Did anyone speak up when you fell ?
Does anybody care ?

Rise again little fighter !
And let the world know the reason why !
Shine again little fighter !
And don't let them end the things you do !

And you were one with a cause and a reason to be.
You were a fighter for peace on this earth.
And you were never afraid, you put your life on the line
And you were always alone out on the sea.

Without a weapon in your hand you came to fight a war.
They took your life, but didn't know that you would never die.

Rise again little fighter !
And let the world know the reason why !
Shine again little fighter !
And don't let them end the things you do !

Are you feelin' alright ?
Cause I care, care.

Run along little fighter !
Oh cause I was there beside you, never stop believing.
So rise ! Rise ! RISE !

Rise again little fighter !
And let the world know the reason why !
Shine again little fighter !
And don't let them end the things you do !

Rise again little fighter (Don't stop believing)
And let the world know the reason why
Shine again little fighter (And keep on moving)
And don't 'em end things you do

Yeah, don't let 'em ever end the things you do

White Lion

We Will Not Go Down

A blinding flash of white light, lit up the sky over Gaza tonight. People running for cover, not knowing whether they're dead or alive. They came with their tanks and their planes, with ravaging fiery flames. And nothing remains, just a voice rising up in the smoky haze;

We will not go down in the night, without a fight !
You can burn up our mosques and our homes and our schools but our spirit will never die !
We will not go down in Gaza tonight !

Women and children alike murdered and massacred night after night, while the so-called leaders of countries afar debated on who's wrong or right. But their powerless words were in vain and the bombs fell down like acid rain, but through the tears and the blood and the pain you can still hear that voice through the smoky haze;

We will not go down in the night, without a fight !
You can burn up our mosques and our homes and our schools but our spirit will never die !
We will not go down in Gaza tonight !

Bongkar

Kalau cinta sudah di buang
Jangan harap keadilan akan datang
Kesedihan hanya tontonan
Bagi mereka yang diperkuda jabatan

Oh oh ya oh ya oh ya bongkar
Oh oh ya oh ya oh ya bongkar

Sabar sabar sabar dan tunggu
Itu jawaban yang kami terima
Ternyata kita harus ke jalan
Robohkan setan yang berdiri mengangkang

Oh oh ya oh ya oh ya bongkar
Oh oh ya oh ya oh ya bongkar
Oh oh ya oh ya oh ya bongkar
Oh oh ya oh ya oh ya bongkar

Penindasan serta kesewenang wenangan
Banyak lagi teramat banyak untuk disebutkan
Hoi hentikan hentikan jangan diteruskan
Kami muak dengan ketidakpastian dan keserakahan

Dijalanan kami sandarkan cita cita
Sebab dirumah tak ada lagi yang bisa dipercaya
Orang tua pandanglah kami sebagai manusia
Kami bertanya tolong kau jawab dengan cinta

Oh oh

Oh oh ya oh ya oh ya bongkar
Oh oh ya oh ya oh ya bongkar
Oh oh ya oh ya oh ya bongkar
Oh oh ya oh ya oh ya bongkar

Kok bisa?
Bisa kok!

Arthritis

A drunk was going home when met a priest that early morning. He asked the priest, "Father, what is the cause of arthritis ?"

The priest looking at the drunk answered, "Well, staying late at night causes arthritis, drinking alcoholic beverages causes arthritis, doing drugs causes arthritis, and free-sex practices causes arthritis."

Noticed that the drunk was quite in a shock, the priest asked happily but calmly, "Why did you ask?"

The drunk, still mesmerized, said, "I just read in the newspaper that the Pope has an arthritis."

Educations - Be Just What You Are

The King was present when the "Messiah", composed by Handel, was performed for the first time in London. He felt a great religious feeling when the choir sang the part of "Alleluia" that he rose, out of the tradition, in awe of the great masterpiece performed before him.

Seeing this, the lords rose from their seats following the King. This was a sign for all audiences to stand on their feet.

Since then, it has been a necessity to rise everytime Alleluia is sung. Neglecting the state of being of those who are listening or the quality of performance.
