Bogor Botanical Gardens 19 August 2014

The Bogor Botanical Gardens is a botanical garden located in Bogor, Indonesia, 60 km south of Jakarta. The gardens are in the city center and adjoin the Istana Bogor. The gardens cover more than 80 hectares. More info at http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bogor_Botanical_Gardens.
This is one of the best destinations in Indonesia. I like this place. Here are some pics I took in the garden when I visited my students who're doing internship at the Center for Plant Conservation, Bogor Botanical Gardens.

My book of life

I keep writing my book of life with the ink of happiness or even sadness. Chapter by chapter I have completed to compose the whole part of my reflection.  All pages are ready to be opened  so I can learn from the story on it.. learn from my imperfection, learn from disappointment and failure in the past.
