I LEARNT SEVERAL THINGS FROM JAKARTA
God will always give a miracle towards His servants
from unrecognized path, and one of them is by assembling among great people and
studied much stories from their experiences. And this is what I get from my 7
days journey in Jakarta. However it’s not only teach me about their
intelligence skill but also they taught us about how to be act sincerely,
always think positive, optimist and the last but not the least our connection
towards God The Almighty.
It started right after arriving in Senen Station; we
arrived midnight and automatically can’t continue our journey because of no
longer vehicles available to pick up passengers in the middle of night.
Meanwhile, I felt tired and need rest as soon as possible, and we decided to
sleep in front of Prayer Room. What a shock when I woke up in the dawn because
of my money and ATM card taken from my wallet although I need money so much.
From this accident I got a lesson for whole people, just for suggestion never
try to let your guard down in the public sphere such as public transportation,
Station; Airport; especially your important stuffs like jewelry, diamonds,
money, or girls…??? That was my first lesson.
My second point is my turning back to be honest in
everything; in University of Indonesia I found several rules in view of judges
that can’t be tolerated generally, we taught many things that accidentally
changed from what we got during Technical Meeting. And of course, this accident
isn’t only felt unfair by our contingent but also felt by another contingents
especially who came from different Provinces. However, round of matches as I
expected ended by our lost and bring unsatisfied in their hearts, but our
problem isn’t over yet. Committee noticed that there were several intruders
whom stayed with contingent in Apartment and they want to find them as well. We
played hide and seek in around 4th and 5th day in Jakarta
with the committee to make sure that we were saved from their patrols. And from
these accidents I taught that every region has their own rules, and we as the
settlers couldn’t do anything to fight against injustice of landlord, and I
suggest you to always open your mind and your heart to always forgive each
other, because we’ll never know what exactly happened in alien areas.
My third point is basically taught us about deciding
your own choice, especially after graduated from College. My journey to Jakarta
colored by many experiences and many inspire stories from many different people
in order to embrace their own success until today. Starting from Miss Vera as
the Business woman, she also actively works as English teacher, owned Muslimah
Beauty Salon, and recently became Business Consultant for all ages. She opened
Business sharing and open Session moved from Cafe into another Cafe by low
budget and cost so it will attracted more participants to participate in this
event. What exactly became focus on Miss Vera is her way to develop idea and
her relationship towards God. Meanwhile, she always taught her employee to keep
5 prayers and also Praying Dhuha as the beginning of their task in the morning.
Furthermore, she was a housewife, having 3 children and all of them were still
kids. She controlled all of her business
from her laptop in the house, so she hasn’t need to come into field to control
it because their trustworthy and business confidence among Owner and employee.
The second man that I faced was Mr. Agus whom actively works in Judicial
Commission. He worked in Judicial Commission in around 6 years ago, however, he's kinda weird as an Government employee because of his style is really fun and friendly. and he motivated us how to live in wild condition after graduation.
