Just A Thought

Not to offend anyone, but to make us think... a while.

Abraham Lincoln once says;

"NEARLY ALL MEN CAN STAND ADVERSITY, BUT,
IF YOU WANT TO TEST A MAN'S CHARACTER,
GIVE HIM POWER."



The Meaning...

All man can handle hardship (at least to an extent). That's a part of life. Adversity is life's test for strength, durability, true willingness to live.

And, well...how power is HANDLED is test of character. A good man will not abuse power but will use it for the common good, for those his actions affect. A man with bad character will abuse power and use it solely for his own self-interest, will not be patient or understanding in his pursuits.

Though a man may be able to withstand many hardships due to strength, it doesn't mean that he is good or fair to others in his rule.

My friend post this on my wall at FB...I stop for while because thinking, this music instrumental is very very familiar, right.... Yeaa, its the music that 'accompany' me through the aisle to the altar during my wedding day, with my father on my right side. That was last year.

This sape' played by Jerry Kamit, also my friend. We (Jerry and Tuku Kame') used to record my song (one song, my own composed to be compiled in their album called Gadong) and that particular song is called "Ika' "/You, with his sape' also one of main music instrument in that song, where there is solo part in that song is just to highlight the sape sounds only. Tuku Kame' did a great job. I missed the time when we perform together. Hope to work together with you guys in the times to come. God Bless you all..

To Jerry, thank you for the amazing sape' sound. You are really talented..
