I wrote once, and thought almost every day, that God is smiling upon Indonesia. The country so lush and abundant with natural resources, which is situated in the most beatiful spot on earth (yeah, the equator: the forever summer and eternal sunshine), inhabitated by people who have unshakenable faith in their Supreme Being, but unfortunately led by bunch of people with questionable mores and dignities. Those bunch has lead my beloved country to what it is: impoverished, under developed, corrupt, and disintegrating. But enough about those bunch.
What bugs me is whether God, who had so kindly created this country with smile is still smiling today. Just read the headlines. So many natural disasters. Some as effect of man-made mismanagement of nature, we must admit, but nevertheless, what we've seen is a disaster that is relentless. Unstoppable. And in scale that makes me think how small indeed we are in this universe.
God is the Almighty.
