Michael Jackson.. This Is It

I was getting ready to write when a notification came: Michael Jackson died! My first question was: THE Michael Jackson?I heard that Farrah Fawcett, one of the firsts Charlie's Angels had died after a long brave fighting with anal cancer. But Michael Jackson?

But in seconds everything is crystal-clear: Michael Jackson is gone! The King of Pop is dead. Long Live The King.

He was preparing his last tour "This is it" this mid July. And he had made his press conference -- which turmed out to be the last -- and greeted his fans all over the world. No one know it would be his last "performance" ever. We might had lost the chance to see him performed in stage for the last time. But THIS IS IT!! I guess his works, his legacy will always stay in the heart of people who had known him — by name or personally — and hope the ups and downs of his life will remain well written for the generation to come. Let’s remember him fairly as a human being, with all his good and bad deeds, with all his strength and weaknesses. I hope he will find found the peace of mind he yearned and never had in his life.

Silently I said a little prayer -- quoting his brother Jermaine Jackson farewell words -- for him:

May Allah be with you Michael, always

Hope you will find the happiness you always seek in your life time, Michael. Life goes on...

IF I HAD MY CHILD TO RAISE OVER AGAIN

IF I HAD MY CHILD TO RAISE OVER AGAIN


If I had my child to raise over again,

I'd finger paint more, and point the finger less.

I'd do less correcting, and more connecting.

I'd take my eyes off my watch, and watch with my eyes.

I would care to know less, and know to care more.

I'd take more hikes and fly more kites.

I'd stop playing serious, and seriously play.

I'd run through more fields, and gaze at more stars.

I'd do more hugging, and less tugging.

I would be firm less often, and affirm much more.

I'd build self-esteem first, and the house later.

I'd teach less about the love of power,

And more about the power of love.

**PS:

" I'd teach less about the love of power ... And more about the power of love"

Weeks after Pemilu 2009 for Legislative Member, I was watching the news of those Indonesian Politician busy doing coalition, no matter whether they used to be in opposite directions. Is it good or is it bad? Is it for the people or is it for themselves? Is it for the benefit of the people or is it just in the name of struggling for power?? Sorry to say it seems that they "love the power" more rather than "the power of love".

We're only the spectators.. yet at the time, our vote will determine who's going to lead the country.

I just wish they have the political maturity, to support each other no matter who will win the elections on next July.

Salam Damai.
