eSPIN Personality Test

I took "The eSPIN Personality Test"

and here are my results

Result: Saint (.... am I?)
You can't be a better person than a saint. You're selfless, sweet, and we wouldn't be surprised if you could perform a miracle or two. Of all the personality types on this test, yours is by far the most respectable. We mean, how couldn't everyone love you? Just remember, though - as nice as it is to help other people, sometimes you gotta help yourself a little, too. Don't be afraid to a little selfish every now and then. Seriously! We give you permission.

I wish I am all that and more ...

WHAT'S WRONG WITH ME ... ?

Result: Too Friendly (... again, am I?)
You're very open with people, which is great, but sometimes those people are wearing brass knuckles, which is not great. You tend to think that people are generally good at heart, and because of that, you're very trusting. People are drawn to your positive attitude and you tend to make friends easily. (You might also be a little vain, but hey, who could blame you? You're a good-looking individual, and you have a right to be a little cocky about it.) So where could you go wrong? Well, if you're too friendly, you might not be on alert for those folks you really shouldn't trust. So try to use more caution when you meet new people. And quit trading gym socks with strangers. That's just plain gross

JUST

In silence just betrays me
In denial just deceive me
Mere argument provoke the unjust
Strong debate obsolete the just
For no course of action could defend the just
When victory is on the side of the unjust

ON AGE

I think age is mind over matter, if you do not mind it doesn’t matter; those who mind usually are people who do not matter to you.

Favorites Mother Theresa’s quotes

  • People are often unreasonable, illogical, and self-centered; forgive them anyway
  • If you are kind, people may accuse you of selfish, ulterior motives; be kind anyway
  • If you are successful, you will win some false friends, and some true enemies; succeed anyway
  • If you are honest and frank, people may cheat you, be honest and frank anyway
  • What you spend years building, someone could destroy overnight; build anyway
  • If you find serenity and happiness, they may be jealous; be happy anyway
  • The good you do today, people will often forget tomorrow; do good anyway

Religion VS Faith

religions are MANMADE, a set of rules and regulations that bound to be a burdened,

whilst

faith is a CHOICE people made based on their own free will, a free will that God has given to each
and every living human being.

however

once you have chosen a faith, be faithful, after all you are the one making that choice!

Rules of My Life

  • Pray always
  • Assume nothing
  • Expect little from everyone but more of myself
  • Do more for others than I would for myself
  • Need less
  • Smile more often
  • Laugh a lot
  • Cry once in a while

IF BEST IS POSSIBLE, THAN GOOD IS NOT AN OPTION

Hari Minggu kemarin Romo Hani SJ memberikan homili yang bener bener kena di hati … Romo membahas soal arti tanda salib buat kita. Secara garis besar homilinya seperti ini:

Orang Katholik terkenal dengan ke-biasa-an nya membuat Tanda Salib sebelum melakukan segala sesuatu, seperi bangun tidur, mau makan, mau jalan, mau naik mobil, menang pertandingan, dll dsb. Setiap kali kita menyentuh kening, dada dan pundak, danmngucapkan DEMI NAMA BAPA DAN PUTRA DAN ROH KUDUS.

Romo mengartikan-nya, bahwa sebelum melakukan apa pun juga:

Dahi -- Gunakan otak / akal sehat mu agar dapat melakukan hal hal yang baik.

Dada – Gunakan hati mu untuk melakukan segala sesuatu dengan iklas.

Pundak – Gunakan seluruh kemampuan mu untuk melakukan yang terbaik yang kamu bisa.

Jadi ternyata prinsip aku untuk “DO THE BEST – ALWAYS” gak salah salah banget kan?! Jadi prinsip ku: “IF BEST IS POSSIBLE, THAN GOOD IS NOT AN OPTION”.

I always do the best I can, if I could do better I surely would, and when I can, I surely will.

Apologize -- One Republic

I'm holding on your rope,
Got me ten feet off the ground,
And I'm hearing what you say,
But I just can't make a sound,
You tell me that you need me,
Then you go and cut me down, away,
You tell me that you're sorry,
Didn't think I'd turn around, and say

That it's too late to apologize,
It's too late, I said it's too late to apologize,
It's too late, (Too late) Ooooooohhh

I take another chance,
take a fall, take a shot for you,
I need you like a heart needs a beat,
But it's nothing new, yeahhh yeahhh
I loved you with the fire red,
Now it's turning blue, and you said
Sorry like the angel,
Heaven let me think was you,
But I'm afraid

Human Nature


It is amazing how one can show their true colour when their very existence are threatened. It is human nature to put their interest before others; however should that attempt cost one, their conscience, their faith, even family and friends. How far is too far, how just is injustice if it is done to save one’s existence? I ponder at these thought day and night, and wonder would I have done the same to save my own ass. I came up empty … my own conscience betrays me! I guess my tendency to be accommodative would not suffice in many cases and I end up badly broken, beaten and un-conscious. For now, I just hold on to my tiny rope of faith, and hope that it will carry me through.
