What Is This?




What Is This?
Just guess.



I can find, see, hear beauty almost anywhere, even in the simplest things, music, sounds, even without leaving my home.


This is a beautiful view of trees wrapped, covered in gold sunlight as I see it from my terrace far away. I captured this just with my  old I Pad. This picture is so far from what I really saw, yet certainly not less wonderful, so challenging to the imagination.

I Could Get Heaven, But …



                         I Could Get Heaven, But …

And there were the old couple. She’s blind and her husband, who himself need to be aided, aided her, while we, - an old couple too -  were comfortably in a car as we left, after the church service. 


But I got no courage to ask my son who drove, to take them, that is, have him do something good for me, at his expense. Why? This was what I so repent.


That would be heaven. I could get heaven, instead, I got remorse. This occasion would never, ever return.

This Is Heaven Enough



            This Is Heaven Enough

I certainly live happily in my wonderful world, though I just live in Jakarta and only travel to the country near by on my bike. Sure I never visited Alaska, The Grand Canyon, The Alps, … I just enjoy exercising my Choir of uneducated old agers, having a humble home page, my dear dogs near me, my little garden, eat simple folk food, …,



Yet am I so rich. I still have my arms, my legs, my eyes, my five senses, my brains, my health, my joys, happiness…  



With internet I have access into the whole world.



My mind jumps out of my “well” and picnics to see, enjoy the wonders of  deep ocean-, underground-, sky-, space- cities, travel to the far future, the past,  even to heaven but not so dull, weary a heaven as many people believe, picture, imagine it.



I don’t want, need another world, this is heaven enough, as long as my leg doesn’t hurt. Ha. Ha.

Mind And Body

Were Mind and Body healthy, life is heaven, hundred years to short, were they ailing, suffering, just one day too long.
