Letters from YOU

Kalo lagi sedih gini, saya suka ngebacain e-mail dari kalian semua yang udah ngirim foto dan ngasih semangat ke saya. Ada beberapa yang berkesan, dan ingin saya bagikan di sini... Semoga yang ngirim nggak marah ya, hehehe!


Hi Yasmin,

Sebelumnya maaf nih, saya menulis artikel tentang kamu di Kompasiana tanpa ijin terlebih dahulu

http://umum.kompasiana.com/2009/10/29/karena-hidupnya-terlalu-berharga-the-birthday-project/

Sebelumnya saya tidak punya blog, hanya tergerak untuk menulis kisah kamu saja.
Kalau kamu keberatan saya akan delete.

Namun bagi saya, penting agar orang umum tahu bahwa ada orang yang ingin hidup the fullest seperti kamu, instead of mengutuk diri dan menyalahkan Tuhan.

Jika berkenan, attach adalah gambar saya dengan istri, kalo bisa minta tolong di sketsa ya.

Wish you all the best...

Regards,

Yudha Satya

Wow! Serius nih??? There is an article about me???


Hai..Yasmin, apa kabar...

Kenalkan, saya Muhammad Nur. Saya asli Yogyakarta, tepatnya di Bantul, bagian selatan Yogyakarta. Saya seorang wartawan Koran Tempo, Jakarta. Saya terkesan dengan usahamu dan mendoakanmu agar selalu dapat yang terbaik.

Dulu saya juga suka menggambar, untuk cari uang dan bertahan hidup. Saya menyesal, dulu tak sempat menggambar ibu saya yang meninggal 14 tahun yang lalu. Kini aktivitas menggambar saya sudah tak ada karena sibuk liputan dan menulis.

Ketika baca blog-mu, saya tersentuh...

Saya yakin, Tuhan memberikan hidup yang spesial, untuk umatnya yang spesial.
Dan saya yakin, Yasmin adalah spesial di mata Tuhan..
Teruslah menggambar dan bertahan, sekuatmu.

Saya tersanjung dengan karya-karyamu

Matur nuwun

Muhammad Nur

Kalo saya, justru menyesal karena baru mulai menggambar setelah sakit. Dan sayangnya ibu saya nggak pernah mau digambar, hehe...

Ps: will go to bali soon perhaps I can catch up with u sometimes :)

Yeah! We will not be defeated by our illness! Let me know when you're in Bali! :)

Dear Yasmin, I found your blog and I'd like to participate in your birthday project ;)
This is my pic in medio 2008. I had a chance to visit Krakatoa with my friends, a beautiful volcano in Sunda strait.
I was very happy for the trip since I saw the awesome-ness of my own country. We saw above and below the volcano. At day, we climbed it and did some snorkeling. when the night comes, we had ourselves camping in the island near Krakatoa and watching its lava explosion that looks like fireworks :D
from that day, I announce to myself that 2008 is the year for me to start exploring Indonesia.
Eventhough I'm still stuck in Java island (I'm still student, limited income..hehe..), but I try to manage so I could visit some places.
I love Indonesia, Indonesia is beautiful and I'm glad you also live in here :)

anw, thanks before ya.. looking fwd for the drawing, I really love your project!! :D

I so envy you...! Walaupun saya nggak harus selalu berbaring di ranjang, tapi saya nggak bisa melakukan kegiatan fisik yang terlalu berat. Kasih liat dong, foto2 perjalanan kamu...

are you stupid? this is the maybe the final moment of your life, but why do you choose to draw faces of some total stranger?
or is it that you has given up your hope? and choose to draw stranger to forget your pain? hey! wake up! we will die eventually, and you are lucky enough to know when you gonna die, so you could ...prepare for it.
dont just sit and draw, go outside! enjoy the world! enjoy the life more lively than it supposed to be. make yourself have no regrets in this life,,, and better yet, get prepared yourself for the afterlife.
remember, your time maybe short, but still, you have the right to have your own life. and you will face the real world up ahead after you die. so get prepared.
i am sorry, i know i am rude, and my word maybe insult you. but all of this is what i want to say because i know your pain. i feel it too. trust me.
may the God Bless you, and i hope i could see you sometimes and become a good friend with you. sorry and thanks,,,, =)

Hehehe yang ini dari wall di Facebook Group nih. Saya paling suka yang ini! You told me to enjoy life, and yes, I am enjoying my life! Tenang aja, saya nggak mendekam di kamar terus-terusan! Saya selalu bawa sketchook ke mana-mana, jadi bisa menggambar setiap saat. Saya anaknya suka keluyuran kok. Tanya aja sama Mama saya. :P

Live strong. Sekarang anda menjadi "friend of the world" dan saya menjadi cemburu lho hehehe. As you wrote "you are the luckiest girl in the world". Kalau Michael Jackson bilang "Heal The World" then I will pray "The World Heal You". I believe there is God and Bless You.

Limpat pasti bermaksud baik dengan tulisannya dan walaupun keras, I appreciate his support. Memang setiap orang punya gaya dan cara masing-masing untuk menunjukkan dukungannya dan Limpat memilih gaya "keras". Karena itulah maka kita juga harus memahami pilihan Yasmin utk menikmati hari-hari terakhirnya dengan... menggambar, karena setiap orang mempunyai caranya masing-masing untuk menikmati hidup ini. Tidak semua orang harus "go outside" to enjoy the world. So Yasmin, keep doing what you like the most and enjoy your life. Hidup terlalu berharga untuk disia-siakan terlepas dari panjang pendeknya perjalanan hidup kita. It is how you live, not how long that matters; the donation not the duration. You have inspired me with your courage in facing the facts and I believe many of the others feel the same too, so thank you for sharing your pain with us and we do pray for a miracle for your recovery. God Bless You, Yasmin.

Yang ini juga dari Facebook Group. Wow, it's like you can read my mind... Thank you very much!

Masih banyak lagi e-mail dan pesan yang saya terima!!! Ternyata, di tengah segala berita buruk tentang Indonesia, masih banyak juga yang peduli pada sesama. Siapa bilang kita sudah jadi bangsa yang apatis dan kehilangan perasaan?
