Hey! I went to the zoo yesterday.
And you know what? The animals talked to me!

The turtle said:
“I’ll tech you to be a patient person.”
“Don’t do something in a hurry, but do it slowly.”
“Slow but sure.”

The elephant said:
“Though you become a big person, don’t be arrogant.”
“You are bigger than the other means you should protect the small.”

The lion said:
“Don’t be a coward.”
“You can be a king, but don’t forget to protect your people.”

The penguin said:
“This world is cold and cruel, but don’t be a cold person.”
“Make every person near you feel your warm feeling.”

The peacock said:
“Beautiful appearance is impermanent, it will fade as the time goes by.”
“But beautiful heart never fades though you become an old granny.”

The bird said:
“If you can fly, don’t fly too high, the wind will get angry at you.”
“Though you can fly, you still need to find food on the ground.”
“Don’t forget about the land where you from if you can fly high and away.”

you can kill me,
but don't torture me.


you can stab me with a knife,
but don't slice my wrist with a razor.


you can break my legs and my hands,
but don't break my heart.


you can hate me,
but don't ignore me.

Japanese calls you お母さん(okasan).

I’m a trash can,
When I was a kid, my childhood friends threw their naughtiness at me.
When I was a teenager, my boyfriend threw his lust at me.
When I was about to grow up, my parents threw their anger at me.
When I become an adult, the world throws its emotion at me.
But I don’t mind being a trash can.
As long as God throws His blessing at me.



(dedicated for my best friend. hope u happy with ur new family. don't forget me, because i'll remember u always. thanks for standing for me when this world became my enemy. thanks u were always there, thanks for supporting me, and thanks because u made my days colorful. don't forget that God always be with u n take care of u)

Why I have to do this?
I want to do that!

Why it has to be this way?
Why it hasn’t to be that way?

Why I take this why?
Why I don’t take that why?

Why is it like this?
Why it isn’t like that?

I used to be a caterpillar.
Caterpillar that’s always ruins leaves.
Caterpillar that makes a plant becomes leafless.
I don’t mean to ruin the plant,
I’m just taking what God gives as my food.
Am I wrong?
How am I supposed to live if I don’t eat?

But now I become a pupa.
A pupa that can’t does anything.
A pupa that still alive though can’t move.
Sometimes when I remember my old life,
I want to be caterpillar that can move anywhere easily.
But when I take a look at butterflies,
I want to be like them too.
I want to have a beautiful wings and color like them.
I feel that I don’t want to be caterpillar anymore.
I want to be a beautiful butterfly.
I can fly anywhere with my beautiful wings.
I’ll make other bugs envy my beauty.

Now, I just need to wait.
I’ll try to be a good pupa that’s always waits for the day I’ll become a butterfly.
Yeah, I have to wait.
I’m sure I’ll become a beautiful butterfly someday.
Someday I'll spread my wings and fly high into the sky.

I’m a girl with a flat nose.
I’m a girl with yellow skin.
I’m a girl with short body.
I’m a girl with black hair.
I’m a girl with brown eyes.


Is there a boy,
With pointed nose,
With white skin,
With tall body,
With  blond hair,
With blue eyes,
Want to be my boyfriend?

this is what you call love:
u'll wait patiently for the one you love.
u'll make sure that he always be alright, though u can't see him/ her.
u'll always feel happy when s/he's happy.
u'll let him go if s/he wants to reach his/ her dream.
u'll make sure that s/he gets your support.
u'll always pray for his/ her happiness.
u'll say that u care about him/ her.
u'll always stay by his/ her side.
u'll stand for him/ her though the world against you.


u'll do all these things though s/ he doesn't love u.
that's what u call love. it's not always happy. sometimes u'll cry for it. u'll desperate for it. but, don't stop to love. it's not a suggestion. it's an order.
