Lesson from a mechanic

Few months back

I watched Jason Statham's movie

called The Mechanic

in this movie

there's one of my most favorite scene

when a guy ask Arthur Bishop (Jason Statham) 

to kill his best friend, Harry McKenna (Donald Sutherland)

because of internal political issue that force him to die

At that night in the parking basement

Harry knew that someone will kill him

but unexpectedly he found out that his own best friend

is the one who assigned to do this dirty job

When Arthur point the gun to him

Harry manage to calm himself down and let his best friend shoot him

before killing him, Arthur asked

Arthur: Why do you let me kill you?

Harry: Because if it's not you, somebody else will.

I really love this line

and this movie really inspire me to forgive people who hurt me

because

being hurt by people is part of our life

what we can do is to forgive them

and think if he/she is not the one who hurts me,

somebody else will.

Well readers, this is only my point of view

how you can twist your feeling

from being sad because of your friend betrayed you

or your partner cheated on you

into a better understanding about life

that will always upside down.

Music is the common language of the world.

This is a light talk between you and me.

I've been watching a Korean drama series called Dream High

I won't elaborate more about the story line

but there is a sentence that I like most

Music is the common language of the world.

It's really true

Have you ever listened to song that you don't know what is the meaning

but yet it engages to your emotional and it affect your feeling?

It often happened to me.

Whenever I listen to a song

with a sad melody

I can automatically be sad

even I don't know the language that they use

Have you ever felt the same way?

the birth of A talking dust

Some loyal readers of by posts

often asked me

Why you name your blog A talking dust?

So here's my explanation

There are uncountable people in the world

who love to write just like me

who have worse condition compare to me

who been through a lot of hard times more than me

and, 

throughout those uncountable number of people

I feel super small

like a dust

who might be remain unseen

but this dust

able to touch people around it

and reach their heart through my pieces of writing

When I was in my first semester

one of my old lecturer said

To be successful you need two elements;

energy and wisdom

When you are young and green like this

you have lot of energy but lack of wisdom

When you are getting old like me

you have much wisdom but you don't have much energy left

and one of my classmate ask,

so how to be successful in the young age?

he continued,

you can gain wisdom through experiences

you can listen to other people experiences

so it will make you become wiser

and will avoid the same mistakes from their past

When I listen to my lecturer advice

I start to think

maybe I could write a blog

and can share my experiences and thoughts to people around me

at that time

the thought of making a Talking Dust was born

:)

Advertiser is a hero

When I was in Junior High school

I wanna be a superhero

However,

As I grow up
