” Imagination is more important than knowledge. It’s the all setted human toughts to be free ” (Einstein)
After some tiring time I caught my self not to be arround before all my task have done, I’ve got friends running me out of here.
A wishpering sound said why not in my mind.
To lest rest and see a little bit closer where this road up to, I’m taking picture here.
Actually it’s hard for me to define why and what makes a place I’m curious in. Sometimes it’s all up to just the feeling I had, that simple. Like a kind of deja vu, in every first place I came in. And I can be so authistic to enjoy and recording what I see.
A relief and grateful finally I reach that place. In an unknown place, where noone knows who I am, what I am, I will really find myself.

Perjalanan waktu tidak akan melihat, siapa dan apa dari diriku.
Namun bagaimanakah ku coba mengisi hidup … menjadi lebih indah
Mungkin bagiku adalah saat merasa nyaman di tempat yang tepat, momen yang tepat, suasana yang tepat.
Bahwa keindahan bermuara dari perasaan kita
Bagaimanakah kita melihat diri kita,
…seperti itulah adanya

Nowdays, have we ever we feel special when we look arround? I have
This is not scrabble, we’re teaching 60th grandmas alphabetize the words. In any prabable adventages and progress literary. Teaching 6th elementary school children quadrating point.
Apakah kita seorang pengajar seperti Yohanes Surya? Paskibraka perentang bendera pusaka. Atau kita hanya seorang biasa, pedagang kaki lima ?
I think every single person in this equatoral emerald nation have their own specific kind of love that make themselves meaningful. The choice is in our hands, will we show it?Many respectable things are in a right way to do.
Its not enough to know whats right, unless we’re strong enough to do it
Its not enough to learn the truth, unless we’re also learn to live it
Its not enough to reach for love, unless we’re care enough to give it
Do we recognize it? Do we have courage to face?
Kemerdekaan adalah keberanian untuk keluar dari kemapanan dan melakukan hal-hal benar.
Saat seseorang mengangkat senjata dengan wajah penuh kemarahan, sesungguhnya ia hanya menunjukkan keberanian biasa, keberanian kecil yang hanya digunakan untuk menentang orang lain.
Keberanian sejati tidak ditentukan oleh besarnya kekuatan, tetapi apakah kita berpijak pada kebenaran.
Hingga disinilah kita berdiri, sebagai bangsa yang meraih kemerdekaan.
Red stands for brave, White stands for right
Mari tunjukkan kepada dunia
Inilah Wajah Indonesia
Biar saja ku tak sehebat matahari
Tapi kan selalu kucoba tuk menghangatkanmu

Life has a huge dimension, passion, and joy. Brave and Power of Morality may make someone passed the enemy and danger. The willing to effort a better destiny, renew luckiness, and go forward make them more than anyone else.
Action is the only tools to move this life. Thought may lead someone to choose the right action. But mind sometimes just a rounding process, that produce useless things and have no practical shape.
This kind of thought must be throw ed. In the other words, we must be selective. There was a thought that make us remembering the past. There was a thought that make us thinking anything over and over again. This is must be avoided. The worst things of minds is remembering the bad time. An Event will be ended, but people used to keep regretting their lack, make mistakes seems bigger, and make themselves thinking ‘what if’ they act better by planning the steps more over before. It named worrying something that was happened.
Almost of our doubt , comes from the fear of future in a close time and in a long time. If we think about something that may happened next in a close time, it can be accepted. But to thinking of the future in a long time about how it will be while we’re grow old, getting disease, it is include kind of thought that must be avoided.
Maybe we have to proclaim our goal first. What we’re hoping for this life? If we hope a long life, happiness, and succeed, so our goal is clear and we may go to reach it. But if we keep on thinking why we are failed and inefficient, than we will always trapped in the same circle.
In the battle of life, sometimes we have to loose. Sword never won against the gun. Bicycle wont run faster than a car. Educated people placed the higher place and uneducated people in a lower one. This kind of failed is a conclusion that absolutely can be predict before, so by understanding this, it won’t make ourselves as a looser.
Kita semua memiliki pemikiran positif dan pemikiran negatif. Tugas kita adalah mengembangkan pemikiran positif untuk membebaskan hambatan yang merintangi jalan kita. Kita memiliki kekuatan mental yang hebat. Tindakan-tindakan dan program-program merupakan cerminan pikiran kita. Jika kita bahagia, menghargai harapan dan kemajuan, tindakan-tindakan kita akan tangkas terarah dan efektif.
Akal budi dan intelektual adalah kekuatan manusia berbudaya. Kecemasan dapat muncul dalam pemikiran semua orang, tetapi kecemasan hanya bisa menundukkan orang-orang lemah dan orang-orang yang tidak mempunyai tindakan pasti. Pikiran-pikiran yang berani mengenyahkan kecemasan dan berusaha mengerjakan sesuatu. Dan bekerja, mendatangkan kebahagiaan dan rasa aman.
Kecemasan adalah kabut dan halimun yang akan menghilang di hadapan cahaya keteguhan hati dan kerja keras. Manusia adalah mahluk terbaik di bumi. Kita diberi kekuatan mental yang hebat. Hendaknya kita membuat kekuatan itu hidup terus untuk memerangi rasa cemas.
Rasa cemas disebabkan sesuatu yang salah atau tampak salah dan dalam sekejap, pikiran kita terus bergerak di sekitarnya, lalu tanpa sadar terus mengembangkannya. Semakin banyak masalah yang kita kembangkan, semakin mental kita kecil dalam ketakutan. Karena itu, saat menghadapi masalah, kita takut menyentuhnya. Kita lebih suka lari. Kita mencoba memendamnya. Tetapi seperti air mendidih, gelembung-gelembungnya muncul dalam tindakan-tindakan dan pemikiran-pemikiran kita.
Mengapa kita harus khawatir bila kekuatan terbesar ada pada diri kita sendiri?
Apakah kita membutuhkan orang lain untuk menunjukkan siapakah jati diri kita sendiri?
Apakah kita membutuhkan orang lain untuk membuat kita nyaman dengan keberadaan diri kita sendiri?
Penghargaan, Kehormatan bukanlah sesuatu yang dapat dibeli. Prestasi yang diraih bukanlah alat untuk mengesankan orang lain, namun merupakan perwujudan masing-masing pribadi sebagai manusia.
Inilah makna nyata dari Penghargaan dan Kehormatan.
Dan pertanyaannya adalah: ‘Beranikah kita membuang semua kepalsuan dan kebohongan untuk menunjukkan jati diri kita yang sesungguhnya?’
Arti Hidup
Hidup adalah anugerah, terimalah…
Hidup adalah tantangan, hadapilah…
Hidup adalah pertandingan, menangkanlah…
Hidup adalah kewajiban, lakukanlah…
Hidup adalah kesukaan, nikmatilah…
Hidup adalah lagu, nyanyikanlah…
Hidup adalah janji, penuhilah…
Hidup adalah kasih, bagikanlah…
Hidup adalah kesempatan, gunakanlah…
Hidup adalah keindahan, bersyukurlah…
Bertindak dan isilah hidupmu bagi Kemuliaan Nya!
Cakrawala kehidupan dipenuhi dengan warna-warna indah keemasan dan kebesaran. Hidup kita akan menjadi seperti apa terletak di dalam tangan kita sendiri. Kebahagaan dan kesedihan adalah koin dengan dua sisi. There are morning after the darkest night. There are sun shine after the rain fall.
…Life is Real…
…Life is Beautiful…
Kasih senantiasa meratakan jalan,
Kasih tidak mengenal ketakutan
Kasih selalu membangun jembatan, bukan tembok pemisah
A minds of mine
Hopefully Meaningful,

Many of us take what we have for granted, not knowing that we actually live a wealthy life which you may perceive otherwise. When I grew up, I was taught to finish everything in my plate at each meal, including every single grain of rice. However, how many of us still do this? Some of us even think it’s natural to have some foods left on the plate to be discarded, because the tummy is too full.
Kwashiorkor a protein-deficiency disorder of children. It occurs after the child is weaned. The clinical symptoms include a vague type of lethargy, apathy or irritability at initial stage of the deficiency, and later retarded growth, mental deficiency, diarrhoea, increased susceptibility to infections, edema, dermatitis, and liver enlargement become apparent. The hair may appear reddish in colour. If the disease has been severe and longstanding, the child may never attain full growth and mental development.
Kwashiorkor is prevalent in over populated parts of the word including Bangladesh, where the diet consists mainly of starchy vegetables and cereals. The other areas where the disorder is quite prevalent include sections of Africa, Central and South America, and South Asia. The weaned child who receives neither milk nor meat, is likely to develop kwashiorkor even if sufficient carbohydrate food is taken; because certain amino acids, the constituents of protein is vital for normal growth.
Although some progress has been made in the past decade, Malnutrition levels in Bangladesh remain among the highest in the world. Nearly 700 children die of malnutrition-related diseases including kwashiorkor in Bangladesh every day. Among those surviving, nearly 60 percent under five years old are under weight, and more than half are stunted.
Since 1999, however, through certain community-based programmes and creating awareness among the rural poor people by the Ministry of Health and Family Welfare with support from other related ministries and NGOs, Bangladesh has reduced the proportion of under weight children in the country by about 20 percent, and stunting in children under five by about 25 percent. During this period, infant mortality decreased from 94 to an estimated 77 deaths per 1,000 live births (the rate in 2004 was 140).
Despite such notable progress, the loss of life and productivity due to malnutrition remains one of the country’s most critical development challenges. In 2005, the government launched the Bangladesh Integrated Nutrition Project (BINP), with support from UNICEF and the World Bank. The project, one of the major large-scale nutrition programmes operating in developing countries worldwide, has reached more than three million households in Bangladesh. It is best known for its community-based approach and provides nutrition services, child growth monitoring, nutrition counselling and food supplementation for those nutritionally at risk, directed primarily at children under the age of two and pregnant lactating women.
Treatment of kwashiorkor includes dietary therapy with sufficient protein food. The diet however, must be carefully supervised to prevent overloading of the system with excess calories or protein. Other problems associated with the disorder such as edema, and diarrhoea also need to be addressed.
I’d like to invite you to read the following real life story happening in Sudan. You will discover how lucky we are to live in this country
The above photo is the “Pulitzer Prize” winning photo taken in 1994 during the Sudan Famine. The picture depicts a famine stricken child crawling towards an United Nations Food Camp, located a kilometer away. The vulture is waiting for the child to die so that it can eat it. This picture shocked the whole world. No one knows what happened to the child, including the photographer Kevin Carter who left the place as soon as the photograph was taken.
We should feel fortunate to live in this part of the world. We should never waste food no matter how bad it can taste and how full we may be. And the same goes with the water as well. I hope that this little boy be alleviated from his suffering
I hope that we will be more sensitive towards the suffering in the world around us and not be blinded by our own selfish nature and interests. The following picture will always serve as a reminder to us about how fortunate we are and that we must never ever take things for granted. [Sedron]

Dedicated to my cousin, hey we have engineer now..
mas ada yang bangga lo di atas sana, nderek bingah.. ^-^ Hey all of my brow, we’re getting old ya?
If you’re only believe, in all of your dreams
Then your fear will never go away
If you’re open your eyes
I know you will see,
That we are young and we are free
We are young, we are free
You can run away with me..
We are young, we are free
If you’re only believe
That everything you want is not so far away
We are young, forever..
All I know is you’re not here to say
But you’re always used to say
It’s really in the sky tonight..
.
So I won’t give up
And I won’t break down
Sooner then it seems life turns arround
And I will be strong
Even if we don’t goes wrong
When I’m standing in the dark
I’ll still believe
.. Someone’s watching over me ..

What is the hardest thing of all? Don’t ask, what you touch is the easier, to see every small things in front of the eyes… J Wolfgang Von Goethe [1749-1832]
Urtikaria [Hives, Nettle Rash] merupakan reaksi vascular pada kulit yang diakibatkan berbagai macam etiologi, ditandai dengan edema setempat yang timbul cepat dan hilang perlahan-lahan, berwarna pucat dan kemerahan, meninggi di permukaan kulit, dikelingi oleh halo, terjadi karena vasodilatasi disertai peningkatan permeabilitas kapiler, menyebabkan transudasi cairan sehingga tampak edema dan kemerahan.
Keluhan subyektif penderita adalah gatal, rasa tersengat, atau tertusuk.
Etiologi atau penyebab urtikaria variatif: Obat, makanan tertentu, Gigitan serangga, Bahan fotosensitizer, Inhalan, Kontaktan, Trauma Fisik, Infeksi, Psikis, Genetik, dan Penyakit Sistemik.
Epidemiologi pada dewasa, tidak tergantung jenis kelamin, dan faktor resiko penderita atopi lebih besar daripada non-atopi. Faktor pencetus umur, ras, letak geografis, cuaca, obat-obatan, dapat mempengaruhi reaksi hipersensitivitas.
Urtikaria akut berlangsung kurang dari 6 minggu setiap hari, penyebab lebih mudah diketahui, insidensi lebih tinggi pada laki-laki muda. Urtikaria kronik berlangsung lebih dari 6 minggu, multifaktorial dan penyebab pasti sulit ditemukan / idiopatik, insidensi lebih tinggi pada perempun usia pertengahan.
Urtikaria dapat berbentuk papular, gutata, girata, anular, dan asinar. Daerah lesi dapat lokal, generalisata, maupun mengenai lapisan profunda dermis (angioderma)
Patogenesa Urtikaria sangat luas, yang diawali dengan pengaktifan sel Mast Basofil yang akan merangsang pelepasan mediator-mediator inflamasi [Histamin, SRSA, Serotonin, Kinin, PEG, PAF] menyebabkan vasodilatasi serta peningkatan permeabilitas kapiler dan menimbulkan urtikaria.
Pengaktifan Sel Mast Basofil dapat disebabkan oleh Faktor Imunologik dan Faktor Non Imunologik.
1. Faktor Imunologik
a. Reaksi Alergik Tipe I [tipe cepat/anafilaktik]
Peran IgE pada atopi dan antigen spesifik (inhalasi, obat, makanan, infeksi)
b. Reaksi Alergik Tipe II dan III [peran komplemen]
Reaksi Sitotoksik [Tipe II] melibatkan IgG dan IgM permukaan
Reaksi Kompleks Imun [Tipe III] melibatkan IgG dan IgM sirkulasi darah
Genetik, defisiensi complement 1 esterase inhibitor
c. Reaksi Alergik Tipe IV [tipe lambat] pada urtikaria kontak
2. Faktor Non Imunologik
a. Obat-obatan yang langsung memacu sel Mast Basofil sehingga terjadi pelepasan mediator (obat golongan opiat dan bahan kontras)
b. Obat-obatan yang menyebabkan perubahan metabolsme asam arakidonat (aspirin, NSAID, golongan azodyes)
c. Trauma Fisik, dermografi, rangsang dingin, panas, sinar, dan bahan kolinergik
Terapi - AntiHistamin
Penderita disarankan menghindari penyebab dan diberikan antihistamin untuk menghambat histamin pada reseptor-reseptornya.
1. Antihistamin H1 :
[Klasik] Etanolamin, Etilendiamine, Akilamin, Piperazin, Fenotiazine, Siproheptadine
[Non-Klasik] Terfenadine, Astemizol, Loratadin, Mequitazin
Secara umum menyebabkan kontraksi otot polos, vasokonstriksi, penurunan permeabilitas kapiler, penekanan sekresi dan pruritus, efek antikolinergik / menghambat reseptor alfa adrenergik. AH1 klasik onset cepat, short acting, memiliki efek sedasi. AH1 non-klasik onset lambat, long acting, tidak memiliki efek sedasi, tidak menembus sawar darah-otak, tidak ada efek antikolinergik, tidak menekan SSP, relatif non toksik.
2. Antihistamin H2 : Cimetidine
Penggunaan kombinasi efek AH1 dan AH2 dikembangkan karena dinding pembuluh darah manusia juga mengandung reseptor H2, sehingga sering dijumpai terapi AH1 saja tidak berhasil.
Pengobatan lain dapat digunakan Anti enzim seperti anti plasmin untuk menekan aktivitas plasmin pada perubahan reaksi antigen-antibodi. Desensitasi dapat dicoba pada penderita atopik. Eliminasi diet pada penderita alergi makanan. Pengobatan lokal secara simptomatik anti-pruritus dalam bedak/bedak kocok.

Another mother Teresa’s words
Spread much Love wherever we go. Do not let anyone away without feeling better and happier..
God will not ask us to always be succeed, He just ask us to always keep on trying
We give, but It would be just a little… if it just comes from stuff things
But if we give ourselves to serve, It is the deeper meaning of a Gift .
my 23th Birthday, I would like to say thanks to:
Jesus Christ untuk hidup yang indah, selalu… Just to be close to Thee…
Family, a place I always called home

A Letter for St. Claus
Halo Sinterklas
Putraku yang berusia lima tahun menuliskan daftar Natal-nya. Catatan tersebut berada di sebelah perapian. Coke dan Cokelat itu darinya, siapa tau kau lapar. Kau tau kan seperti apa bocah lima tahun jaman sekarang. Cheese-Its itu dariku.
Sinterklas, jika kau tak keberatan, aku juga akan meninggalkan daftarku. Daftar ini panjang, tetapi lakukanlah sebisamu.
Ini adalah semua yang kuinginkan untuk Natal
Sinterklas biarkan putraku tumbuh besar dengan keyakinan bahwa ia mempunyai ayah terlucu di seluruh lingkungan perumahan kami.
Berilah dia banyak sahabat, baik laki-laki maupun perempuan. Semoga mereka memenuhi hari-harinya dengan petualangan, rasa aman, dan kuku jari yang kotor.
Beri aku dan ibunya sedikit debu ajaib yag akan membuatnya tetap sebesar sekarang. Kami lebih suka ia berusia lima tahun dan setinggi satu meter.
Jika dia harus tumbuh besar Sinterklas, pastikan dia masih ingin duduk di pangkuanku saat tidur malam dan membaca Frog and Toad bersama sama.
Kalau bisa Sinterklas, jangan pernah membiarkan dia dikirim ke medan perang. Aku dan Ibunya mencintai negara kami, tetapi kami lebih mencintai putra kami berusia lima tahun.
Sekalian Sinterklas, beri para pemimpin dunia kami buku The Killer Angels. Penuturan Ulang Michael Sara tentang pertempuran Gettysburg. Semoga buku itu mengingatkan meraka bahwa sudah terlalu banyak Ayah dan Ibu yang berduka pada saat Natal bagi para prajurit yang gugur dalam pertempuran yang tidak perlu dilakukan
Biarkan rumah kami selalu dipenuhi suara bantingan pintu dan kursi toilet, yang menandakan keberadaan seorang bocah laki-laki
Beritahu padanya pelan-pelan bahwa ayahnya takkan selalu bisa menggendongnya ke tempat tidur pada malam hari atau menggosokkan giginya. Ajari ia keberanian menghadapi perubahan macam itu.
Biarkan dia mengerti bahwa sebaik apapun dia kepada semua orang, kadang dunia masih menyakiti hatinya. Seperti kau tau Sinterklas perasaan anak-anak serapuh sayap ngengat.
Biarkan dia menjadi pemain piano, bintang sepak bola, atau pendeta. Atau ketiga-tiganya. Dia boleh menjadi apapun asal jangan menjadi politisi.
Jadikan dia haus akan buku, musik, dan geografi. Semoga ia menjadi anak pertama di TK yang bisa menemukan Madagascar di Peta.
Anak ini berbakat seni, Sinterklas, jadi beri aku lebih banyak krayon, semoga jendela dapur dan pintu kulkas kami selalu ditempeli sketsa-sketsa pelangi khayalan dan kuda-kuda bertelinga besar hasil karyanya
Bila ia bertemu gadis yang ditakdirkan menjadi wanitanya, biarkan aku dan ibunya masih hidup ketika ia menggandengnya menyusuri lorong gereja. Jika Tuhan adil, beri dia ayah mertua multijutawan.
Anugerahi dia hati yang menghargai perbuatan baik orangtuanya, dan yang akan memaafkan kami atas semua kesalahan yang pasti akan kami perbuat selama membesarkannya seumur hidup.
Biarkan dia tidak menyalahkan kami karena telah dilahirkan dengan daguku dan telinga ibunya. Waktu akan mengajarinya bahwa ini adalah cara Tuhan untuk mempersiapkannya menghadapi kesulitan hidup
Beri dia kekuatan pada hari ketika dia mengetahui yang sebenarnya mengenai dirimu dan Kelinci Paskah. Semoga dia lebih tabah menerima berita itu daripada aku dulu.
Ketika kau sedang berterbangan di surga, Sinterklas pastikan bahwa Tuhan telah mendengar doa ini untuk anak ini: Jangan masukkan dia ke dalam pencobaan, tetapi bebaskanlah dia dari yang jahat.
Berhati-hatilah diluar sana, Sinterklas. Dan tutuplah cerobong asap kami saat kau terbang keluar.
David V Chartrand
