walaupun arti sebenarnya dari perayaan itu sendiri kadang membias..tapi setidaknya biarkanlah rakyat menikmati event kegembiraan itu....suasana yang begitu ceria...suasana yg bisa membuat ikatan kemasyarakatan kita kembali menjadi kebersamaan..., yg kaya maupun yg miskin semua larut dan menikmati.........., melupakan sejenak segala masalah yang sedang terjadi dlm kehidupan mereka....

Semoga indahnya perayaan hari kemerdekaan negara kita...membawa berkah dan perubahan yg lebih baik untuk semua lapisan masyarakat..., semoga itu bukan impian..........!!

Dirgahayu kemerdekaan Republik Indonesia...........

Apapun yang terjadi aku tetap akan kembali...aku juga tetap bangga menjadi bagian dari tanah dan sejarahmu..........., dan itu tidak bisa terhapus....

Always Love Indonesia............!!!!
