Petrus Maure’s Reflection of Program

 

Exploring Stube-HEMAT Sumba

 

 

 

I admitted that I’m longing to have a trip to Sumba and I'm sure that it was a plan of God whom I believe that learning the real meaning of life is when one become a blessing for others around.

 

 

 

 

 

 

During my journey to Sumba, I learned how to interpret an odyssey to find the meaning of friend, relatives and to be a family. All of us have our own challenges, especially comes from within, about what we have, and what we will give to others. For me, I will give others all of mine in any forms. Other challenge comes from outside, such as  place, space, habits and customs of Sumbanese, because each region has differences and of course has specific social rules. I passed all challenges as I kept in mind the teaching of the Lord, that is ‘love.’

 

 

 

 

I understand, "God gives our life meaningful, not just by sitting, staying idle or just considering praise and worship. If God is just sitting down and talking a lot with no action, He is not a good king.”

 

 

 

 

As a student who studied computers in Yogyakarta, I know some techniques about computer programs more deeply than students who do not study computer, moreover, friends in rural areas. I felt joyful, even I’m eager to give more when I learn with them.

 

 

 

 

There is a hope that local authority makes a policy to support youngsters who are always eager to develop their region, with good information access that should always be available any time for them for the sake of advancement of knowledge, science and technology. They will bring impacts on the progress and welfare of people in Marapu island that they love.

 

 

As the closing statement of this reflection, I quoted a wise proverb, "A man will be called a good man if he gives useful impact for others." Hopefully, every young man keep his spirit to look for the meaning of  his own life. Amen. (PM).
