Perspective

So, someone has been asking me to update this blog. Alright, I'll post half in English, and half in my dialect. Have fun with that. :)

There is a beautiful scene that I saw last night.
Where? One of the ice cream store
When? Before they were closed
Who's in it?
Me: observing
Main character:
The guy who's working there : A
A father who's with his one daughter and her friend: B
What is it about?
It is a story of its kind. A selfless act.

How it happened?

After B along with his daughter and her friend came in, looking around and her daughter and her friend trying at least two different flavor of ice cream, B decided to buy one. After B pays, B started a conversation with A.
B: "So, do you wanna play a game?"
Her daughter: "Just say yes."
A (with confusion and kinda hesitant): "Yes."
B: "I have 5 bills in my hands right now, is the sum of it even or odd?"
A: "Errr... Even?"
B: "It's 7 bucks, so it's odd. Now I'm gonna take one into my pocket. Is it odd now or even?"
A: "Hmm... Odd?"
B: "Nope. It's 6 bucks. Alright, let's try this one more time. It's five bucks in my hand, is it odd or even?"
A (yet with a more confusing look): "Odd...?"
B: "Yes! And that's for you sir. Hope you have a good evening!"
Her daughter (as they both going out from the ice cream store):" Dad.... Are you just trying to spend all your money... (conversation faded as they leave the place)."

A (talking to me): "Wow... people should play that game more often....!"

Why I think it's cool?
Just got back from adoration. Want to grab something hot. X&Y ice cream is nearby! Hmm... good choice for some hot stuff. Got in, asking to A, "do you have something hot?" :) They do apparently. And as I waited my stuff to warm up, saw this act of charity and generosity. Five bucks. Think about that. He just spent like around a buck for his scoop of ice cream. But instead he chose to give five for the tip. That blows my mind away.

As I was walking down the street today. I was thinking about this whole thing and man... I began to ask myself. If a guy can be that generous... How about God?
And today's theme that was ringing in my head was... "Do I really trust Him?"
My today's verse of the day was,
"I, Yahweh, search to the heart,
I probe the loins,
to give each man what his conduct
and his actions deserve." Jeremiah 17:10 (Jerusalem Bible)

And as I went to mass today, our pastor was saying this,
"What you feel doesn't really matter. But what you do, how you act that matters. I met a guy who is depressed since he just broke up with his girl after in a relationship for 4 years, and the gal just went with other guy right away. And I said, hey... it's normal for you to get depressed. Depressed is not a sin! It would NOT be normal I think if you're not depressed. But what did you do upon that depression...? " (alright... This is not like verbatim-ly me copying down word per word, and the stuff might digressed from the story that he told to us, but you get the general idea of it.)

It hit right on. Even though the guy in the confession is not me. It talks to me. It talks about me. What a coincidence huh?

Btw, I dressed all in black today. Why? Hmmm... just feel like doing it. Been up since 7 AM today. Oh well.. alrighty, I decided to post another one all in Indonesian. So for those who can't understand Indonesian... sorry.
