Mulai dari diri sendiri ...

Setiap orang pasti pernah merasa kesal karena banyak hal yang terjadi di dunia ini tidak sesuai apa yang diharapkan. Ingin mengubahnya? Seringkali itu terasa sulit.
Akan tetapi, hal ini tidak boleh menjadi alasan untuk tidak berusaha mewujudkan perubahan itu.
Aa Gym mempunyai rumusan ”3 M”: mulai dari diri sendiri, mulai dari hal yang kecil, dan mulai saat ini. Michael Jackson pernah menyanyikan lagu Man in The Mirror, maknanya kurang lebih sama.


Man in The Mirror

I'm gonna make a change
For once in my life
It's gonna feel real good
Gonna make a difference
Gonna make it right

As i, turn up the collar on my favourite winter coat
This wind is blowin' my mind
I see the kids in the street with not enough to eat
Who am i, to be blind?
Pretending not to see their needs

A summer's disregard
A broken bottle top
And a one man's soul
They follow each other on the wind you know
'Cause they got nowhere to go
That's why I want you to know

I'm starting with the man in the mirror
I'm asking him to change his ways
And no message could have been any clearer
If you wanna make the world a better place
Take a look at yourself, and then make a change

I've been a victim of a selfish kind of love
It's time that i realize
That there are some with no home, not a nickel to loan
Could it be really me,
Pretending that they're not alone?

A willow deeply scarred
Somebody's broken heart
And a washed-out dream
They follow the pattern of the wind, you see
Cause they got no place to be
That's why i'm starting with me

I'm starting with the man in the mirror
I'm asking him to change his ways
And no message could have been any clearer
If you wanna make the world a better place
Take a look at yourself and then make a change
