di created shortly before

_ * Life is like * _
- UAP, * _ * a moment * _
_ * just visible, * _
_ * then disappear !! * _
_ * When People praise * _
MINE,
_ * i said that * _
_ * this * _ * ONLY SHIPPING *
_ * only. * _
`That my car``` _ADED HERITAGE, _
That my house``` _ADED HERITAGE, _ ``
That is myproperty _ADED HERITAGE, _ `` `That my sons
Hanyalah meripan-HER. . ._
`But why`
I`m never
`ask,`
WHY HIM
`insert it```
to me?
``
- FOR WHAT HE *
`deposit` `
everything to me.
``
And if not
`mine,`
`what```
should I``` ``
do for`` `` HIS 'is this? ``
`Why my heart`
`it feels heavy,`
when the deposit is
``
requested back```
`by HER?`
`In fact when` `
requested again,
_kusebut itu_ * MUSIBAH, * _kusebut itu_ * UJIAN, * _kusebut itu_ * PETAKA, * I call it anything. . .__
To illustrate,
that's all it``` ``
is`` * * STORY. . . *
When I pray,
``
kuminta titipan`` `matching`` `` `with
- NEEDS OF THE WORLD, *
_i want more
TREASURE,
_i want more
CAR,
_i want more
HOME,
_i want more
POPULARITY,
Dan I deny * SICK *,
Kutolak * POVERTY, *
`` As if all
`
- STORY *
`is` `
punishment for me.
``
`Like *` `* JUSTICE *
and
* LOVE, * *
must run `
like
settlement``` ``
math and`` ``
corresponding to`` ``
my wish.` ``
`I diligently worship,`
`then properly`
`the suffering is away`
`from me.```
And the favor of the
world ``
should be often`` ``
approached me ...` ``
`How silly`
`` I`m, I'm doing```
- HE *
`as if ``` _Partners of Trade ku_
`and not as ``` - Lover! *
`I`m
* DIA *
membalas
perlakuan baikku
`and reject` `
HIS-decision
not matching``` ``
with my wishes ..` ``
`Whereas every` m`
day I say,
``
_ * Life and Matiku, * _
_ * Just to-MU * _
`Starting today,`
`teach me to'
`to be private
`always` `
grateful in``` ``
every state of`` ``
and become `` wise, want
`obey
`` Your will is yes```
*GOD . . . *
`Because I'm sure ...`
YOU
`will provide`
`gift in the```
my life ...
``
- YOUR WEEK *
`is the`
`ter``` * GOOD *`
for me ... `` `
`When I want to```
live``` * RICH, * `` I forgot, ``
`that``` * ON *
itself
``
is a```
WEALTH.
`When I`m heavy
for
* * GIVES, * `` I forgot, ``
`that
* ALL *
`which I have```
`also is ```
- GRANTING * *
`When I want to```
`so that``
- STRONG, *
`.... I forgot,`
`that in ``` *WEAKNESS,*
God gives`
I
m` * STRENGTH. *
`When I'm afraid'
Loss,
I forgot, that
MY LIFE
`is a``` *LUCK,*
because it
s * * HIS GRADE. *
`Apparently this life is```
very beautiful,
when we always``` *BE GRATEFUL* ``
to``` HIS *
`Not because of the day```
this* * BEAUTIFUL *
we``` * HAPPY. * ``
But because we*HAPPY,* `` `then today
`` to
*` * BEAUTIFUL. *
`Not because no```
there
s* * RIGHTS * ``
we become`` *OPTIMISTIC*. ``
But because we`` `optimistic,` `* * RIGHTS * `` `will be invalid`` `` `feels .
`Not because it` * * * EASY *
we``` * SURE CAN. * ``
But because we```
*SURE CAN . . ! *
`everything becomes`
EASY.
`No because ```
all``` * GOOD * ``
we* SMILE. *
`But because we```
SMILE,
then all become
GOOD,
`` `There is no" day "
- DETERMINES *
`us, except we``` *OWN*
which creates
``
DIFFICULT.
`If we do not```
can be ``` *Highway,* ``
simply become`` *FOOTPATH* ``
which can be passed`` ``
people,` ``
`If we do not```
can be ``` *Sun,* ``
simply become`` *LANTERN* ``
which can illuminate`` ``
around us,` ``
`If we do not```
can do``` `` something for ``
`person, then`
- PRAY *
`for the good.'
My share because
very good for
_ * Learning * _
our life 🙏
