Dear Libby...
how are you doin honey ku ?? we are stilll fasting liv....but next week we are going to have lebaran already. Adelle and Aliyya will have their holiday starting next monday. while i will take my leave on Friday. lebaran will be on Saturday i believe....some say that lebaran will fall on Friday... well, we're just gonna follow the majority or whenever goverment decide. I don't think we need to get involve in the debate on when should the lebaran be...wallahu alam bisawab. Aki is in Mekkah for umrah and wa Willy is already in London so I guess, this will be one of the less merry lebaran for us... I will be the imam in aki house because i'm gonna be the eldest in the family during lebaran day... it's sad considering in almost all lebaran we are always together...
anyway, tonight I would like to talk with you about problem. I believe every human being in the world has ever faced with problems (noticed the "s"). even, since human being is in womb, sometime they already have faced some problems, problems of malnutrition, problems of sickness, etc. so for a human not facing a problem is really an illusion...it's almost impossible, if not impossible at all. I believe problems come in different types, different shapes,and different size, sometime all of those attributes are actually seen differently from person to person. some people see one problem as a huge problem but for others, the very same problem might be seen as nothing...even they could see that as not a problem at all.
so the question is how to face a problem ?? well, you could find many theories on problem solving...but i trully believe that there is no magic solution to a problem. in fact, i don't believe that there's an exactly the same problem in the world, there must be differences in every problem. there are so many variables in the world that can make similar problem become different. therefore I don't believe that there is a magic solution to a problem.. at the end, human being still need to use their brain, and sometime their guts to solve the problem. now for me, to solve a problem we have to really understand what is the problem that we are facing. what is the real problem.. sometime of often time human being just jump into trying to solve the problem without trying to know or understand the real problem, which of course wrong solution to wrong problem will give wrong result. That's why, when we feel that we are facing a problem (assuming there is one)...what we need to do is really, to sitback, reflect and try to understand the problem we are facing, of course with clear mind.. oh ya, often time we are facing a problem with emotional mind which block us from thinking clearly when trying to understand the problem and find a solution.
we will always face problems along the way of our path of life... what can enlarge the possibility of finding the best solutions to a problem is to really understand the problem itself, sit back,
reflect, and use clear mind.. not an emotional ones..sound like theory.. may be..
miss you much liv....
lots of hugs and kisses
