Big bucks == happiness?

Recently I read an article in detik.com, an interesting one, it's title is "Gaji Besar Bikin Anda Bahagia?".
I'm totally agree with the article, I pity the man whose happiness depends on his income and his boasting of it.
Especially in the current trend in the big city, where the rich one is treated as king. Which is simply a foolery. Even the little children begin to get materialistic, boasting on what they have (simply on what their fathers have). Truly what is seen is a vanity, a chasing after the wind, here is a saying:
"Weary not thyself to be rich; Cease from thine own wisdom. Wilt thou set thine eyes upon that which is not? For riches certainly make themselves wings, Like an eagle that flieth toward heaven. "

So... As for me, this is what I will do, it is better for me to seek the unseen yet eternal, than to seek what is seen and not eternal. This is the source of true happiness (man... sounds like a preacher speaking :p)

An interesting quote

The first time I look at the quote below at a website (I forgot it), it amazed me.
How tragic yet it is true, without mentioning any examples I believe everybody knew.

Here is the quote :

"Men never do evil so completely and cheerfully as when they do it from a religious conviction."
- Blaise Pascal

I do really hope that no evil thing will be made right upon the cause of religion... really really hope.

It's gonna rain

The sky isn't clear, the wind is quite strong, it's enough to tell me to be hurry to go to my office.

I saw many people ride their motorbike quite fast, two young women on a motor, bringing an umbrella try to ride as fast as they can, but in fact they had to close their umbrella since it begin to feel the effect of the strong wind :)
On the crossroad, nobody seems to not in a hurry, everybody just want to cross as quickly as they can.

And now, I am at my office beating the rain (the rain did fall about 5-10 minutes after) typing this blog and I think I'm in a good mood though the sky isn't clear :)


peace...
