Work Hard, Play Hard

I've grown up with Japanese pop culture around me. Manga and anime infatuates me.
I've been born and live here in Indonesia for all of my life.
(No, even if I look like this, I am truly from Indonesia :P)

Several years later, today.
I've always admired on how (most) Japanese put such effort and hard work to their quality and details.
I've always admired on how laid back my fellow Indonesians could be (ones from Java island I'm sure of), how they can enjoy this paradise-like environment in this country.

I think it's good to be able to work hard to your most.
Like there's no tomorrow.

It's also good to be able to laid back to your most.
Like we'll live forever.

Thus, it's so irritating if I were to see each to the extreme.
People who keep working and working.
People who hate working.

Instead of favoring on one side of life.
It'd be great if we can have and do both.

We grow via hardships.
We become creative via limitations.

Step back and look around,
the world is very vast.
Step back and take your stance,
jump over the walls, the sea and all of the hurdles.

Don't slack off,
But don't kill yourself yet.

I,
want to live for my passion.
Not only for the sake of trying to stay alive itself.
I,
want this life to be worthy.
For all years I've throughout, for all years I have left to spend out.
