Play Futsal
The most impressive experience of today is playing futsal with friends from Malang. They are brothers or friends though, of Br. JB. So, I think this is the big friendship.
At 04.30 p.m. we started to play futsal, I by myself still preparing some meal and drink for them. And after preparing, I gatheredwith confreres and the friends court to take participation in this game. The game was going well and fluency. Everyone took participation as they ought; ran, got the ball, and made goals. There was no accident before I played and made some running on the slippery floor and pushed a friend’s back then he fell down. Unfortunattely, I made him got some hurts at his knee and elbow. I said sorry for them and besought forgiveness to him. I made this accident unintentionally, but I admitted that this is my mistake then he fell down and got some hurts. At the time, I promise to myself that I will never do this again. I don’t wanna make anyone get hurt in a game again.
After playing, we enjoyed some meal and drink which had been prepared by my confrere, Frt. Jiro. In this time we talked aboutsome stories; about their lives in their neighbourhood where they live. After that, we shaked hands one to another and said good bye to each other. Then they left us and went home.
The experience of today teach me a value for life. That is how to admit a mistake that is made by myself. This thing is easy to say but hard to do, I think. We have to be humble before, so, we can say our apology to anyone. I’m glad with the experience. It’s amazing. Make me better in the relationship with the other. I grateful for this.

A Better Day
Today I feel better. From morning until this night everything I am walking, it is better than yesterday. I can do whatever I want and have to do in the line of community’s routine, and they go well.
Although, last morning my friends and I were reprimended by Father Joko for we have made most of fishes died. I guess, this matter has to be there in my day. And the feeling from the matter become useful for my life, especially my future.
I never regret a day of my life, because; “a good day gives happiness, a bad day gives experience, the worst day gives lesson, and the best day gives memory”. Through this awareness, I believe that my life will go well till the end, and it woo good too. Yesterday, today, and tomorrow are the time to be better. In depth I hope everyone’s will become true by his everyday life.
