My Country Football Team

Action Always Speaks Louder by Lilik Gunawan


My Country Football Team

Yesterday night I watch a football (in US known as soccer) match between my country Indonesia vs. Singapore.

I wonder, how come my country easily defeated. After working so hard with runnings, kickings, head-ups, freekicks, cornerkicks, tricky strategies,…

But still the score was 0 for my country football team and 2 for Singapore.

I felt regreted so much, so very sad about it! Sure! Of course!

Can you imagine, there are more than 200 millions people in my country and can be defeated by small country like Singapore! [Singapore is as big as Jakarta only]

What a big embarassment that is!

How could that happen?

With so many live-supporters watching in the stadium, still did not help supporting my country’s team.

What’s the matter with them? Couldn’t they just pick the ball and put it in the net?

Now I realized, perhaps it’s not the player, the coach, or the game that made the problem. But the management!

I’m sure they have done a very good job. The problem is they don’t have, we don’t have, the right thing as a goal to be reached.

Yes, sometimes our effort to have a happy and successful life can not be achieved, not because we don’t give our best effort, but because we don’t have the right goal!

Then we must re-think of everything. Make a better goal to reach. So whatever our effort we make it would end up with a good and better life.

That’s all for now.

My best regards,
Lilik Gunawan.
