Culture

TRAFFIC ACCIDENT IN INDIA

The report of Kompas about culture in the last year of 2006, reported about the India culture. The country which Tajmahal was built belongs among countries that have a good human resource. The development of economic in this country always increases every year. Near 5% in one year, the persons of rank in India always increase to. Unfortunately, the second country in the world that has common folk, its people has a bad usual. It is a bad usual in matter pertaining to traffic. And this make image that that folk is impolite.

Usually, the drivers kept on going right through a red light. Getting in front of other cars by left way is the usual scenery. The way of across is random. They across the way without turn on the sign light. So, many accidents occur. And not rarity, many cars in the country which has a capital city in New Delhi are dented. The prime minister of India ordered to the people that they must obey the traffic’s laws. But the people ignored it. This report should make Indonesia have an image about traffic’s laws. Absolutely, the country not only increases about the human resource. But the morality of folk must be balance with the advance of human resource in that country.

About Nothing

CAN NOT DO NOTHING ABOUT NOTHING

Two days ago, I felt not so good with my heart because my girl was angry with me. So, I stayed alone in my room, listened to music and played game Hangaroo in order to refresh my feeling. Actually, that game looks like puzzle. That game ordered me to make a phrase in one box use letters in another box. Finally, I was successful to make a phrase. That phrase was “CAN NOT DO NOTHING ABOUT NOTHING.” I thought, the meaning of this phrase is explanation that everyone can’t do anything without an idea or planning before. After that, I claimed that phrase was very interesting.

Everyone has to have an idea or planning before doing something, so that they can do it perfectly and not vain. As a Moslem, I agree with this phrase. Why? Because this statement was appropriate with a Hadis (traditional collection of stories relating words or deeds of Muhammad S.A.W.). In a Hadis which was narrated by Bukhori and Muslim, Muhammad said that every activity depends on its intention. Who wants (plans) to be a rich man; absolutely they will do how to be a rich man. So, plan and do whatever as well as that is possible and useful.

Why that phrase was very interesting, because if someone do anything and before he/she do it, he/she does have not a planning before, that activity will be vain. One example, if a student goes to a market and he does not have a planning; what he has to do there, it is will be gratuitous. Preferable, he does his home work in home according to finish it perfectly.

In my conclusion, before doing anything, we must have a planning. We can learn from anything included from playing a game. Because of that we will know what the effect, whether useful for us or not. []
