Date: Thu, 12 April 2007 11:26 WesternIndonesiaTime Subject: Absorbing the Responsibility of "11" Case
Yesterday, April 11, 2007, was the date of launching for Windows Vista in Jakarta, after previous launching date of 15 February 2007 was canceled due to heavy flood engulfed Jakarta on 1 February 2007. For me the date of April 11 becomes an opportunity to absorb the responsibility of "11" case by not attending the event. Like I mentioned in my previous letters, in 1982 I fell in love with a girl next door, a kind of love that later on I regret. Because when I failed to continue my relationship with her, there were some disasters that made me feel like I have become the trigger of the disasters. It also happened on my other failures with other girls later. Nevertheless such a regret of mine might also interpreted as my blaming others, though I have explained that such regret made me have the consent to move out to the eternity. So now I should make another measure to prevent others from feeling like being blamed by me. I should be better take the responsibility, it was entirely my fault. Since the beginning I should never fell in love with her. Because she came from a distinguished family, her father was a member of the house of representative, and a leader of a big religion organization, while at that moment I was only doing some small printing business with so little margin. It was improper for me to want her. Especially at that moment there were some other friends of mine who were having more reliable background to marry her. Like one of them who already own a house and working in the Indonesian government Finance Department, or another one who worked as the assistant at the office of the former Governor’s daughter, or yet another one who worked in his brother’s company of Tanker ships. They were all having more reliable background to love her. By not attending the Windows Vista launching of 11 April 2007 yesterday, it served as my moving back in time and prevent myself from entering the "11" zone. To symbolize my regret of having entered the competition to get the love of the girl who lived next door at the house number 11 in the year 1982. This regret also apply to all other girls whom I have falling in love, I apologize for not having a self conscious of being an improper person to fall in love to each of those girls. If God could accept this as my repentant, and it would then bestow God’s mercy, I wish it could be funneled to this world, for the good of this world. I think the fact that the flood happened in Jakarta that caused the cancel of Windows Vista launch of February 15, and switched it to 11 April 2007, are all within the scenario of God. And I prefer to think positive about God, with the hope of getting positive results for the good of this world. Even if I should soon move out of this world, I prefer to think it positively, it is for the good of this world.
