The Choir Conductor's Written Address

The Choir Conductor’s Written Address

Is it possible that we (his choir of old age members) are not great (hebat), very great?

Is it possible that all of you are not great, very great?

Is it possible that His creation is not great, very great?

If The Creator of all these creations were not super-super great?

To you who are aged, you certainly could improve yourself and even may surpass us.

To you who are young, don’t take us as example but perform your concert as twice as great as is ours now.

That was his written address in the Bahasa to the audience in a church in Jakarta.

Sure, I think, but most of us don’t believe or don’t know, how splendid, magnificent we are equipped,  of what we can achieve which is almost unbelievable. That’s why we often don’t attain, reach  what we’re capable of. And I remember Opa Johan who still was able to bicycle some 50 Km in old age.
