Sail Through the Hurricane, Kimi Dake No Hikari

At the moment, my life ship's facing a new challenge....

Every night, while staring on the dark sky... That little star's always there, shining upon me and my ship.. Really bring back my memories.. About a bigger star which I've decided to left behind..

Is it better to try retrieving that little star or not ? This question brings me up and down every time the little star comes into my vision..

Till one day... A strong hurricane appears from nowhere, right in the middle of my ship and that star.. Is this the end for my retrieval journey ?

Whirlpool of confusions start to emerge everywhere.. It's not time to be trapped in this kind of thing.. Thus, I consult the condition to my Captain, whether it's time to leave the path or the opposite..

Almost losing my former target, a miraculous sign comes out.. The light from that single star is piercing through the giant hurricane toward me and my ship, clearing the cloud of unsureness and settling my decision...

~~Kimi Dake No Hikari~~
~~The light of only you~~

So it's decided, I'll pass through that hurricane.. With the Captain on the steer, I should have never been afraid coz' nobody but Him knows the best for me.. Even the sight post of the little star still remains unseen, every time I've been blown out, I'll come back with more confidence until the right moment arrives... ^^

PO : Personal Obligation / Obliteration ?

Most Indonesian didn't want to become the PO for GTD-X (Get Together Day-10th), why's that ?

One said that the meetings are just too long and it needs a lot of commitment to stay focus, whereas tutorials and quizzes are still in progress. The other said that we must have a bunch of great ideas and it just doesn't fit his/her characteristic. Unfortunately, those thinkings couldn't convert my mind to not entering the selection and finally, here I am... as a PO with a lot of additional homework, but still enjoyable.

As time goes by, I learned much more than just thinking and thinking for ideas. Twice, my ideas are rejected and wasted, in which I've spent my free time exceptionally (where usually I'm watching anime/playing games). It's like : "Argh, damn it ... Why must I waste my time just to give useless ideas ?! Forget it, I quit !".

It's true that I'm quite frustrated, can't lie about that. However, compared to other failures I've experienced before (especially in Math Olympiad*), it's just nothing but a booster which gives motivation to try harder and harder. That's what building my heart and creating gap to losers which just gave up that easily. And the reason why I can resist is just because I've acquired the success itself by keep doing this before !!!

Once I've set a goal, no matter how many times I fall down, I won't collapse but stand up again and again, for the glory of His name and not for my own pleasure.
