Here, me, at @America, a hi-tech culture centre in Jakarta. They had Monique Coleman, as a special guest there. She's in her world tour, promoting International Youth Day, and her ubercool web, GimmeMo, a web containing latest news about young gen (I'm still the part of that generation too, you can't complain me)
After plikitti plikkata yadda yuddu, we're sharing about youth issue, bullying, mutual understanding, and many other important things. I shared my story too. Getting bullied when I was at school until my time at work. And it made her want to hug me after the show. She's, very very very, very nice. Warm, I can say. She's just inspiring me to move on, to love, even though for haters... Wise, eh?
She shared some quotes with us. Well, forgot a bit, but she made it. Great words. Chinese proverb.
If there is light in the soul,
There will be beauty in the person.
If there is beauty in the person,
There will be harmony in the house.
If there is harmony in the house,
There will be order in the nation.
If there is order in the nation,
There will be peace in the world.
She reminded me to quotes by Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr., " Darkness cannot drive out darkness; only light can do that. Hate cannot drive out hate; only love can do that. "
After the show, I went up on stage.
-me, with Monique Coleman. See the photo shooting? Felt like red carpet, eh?-
Hugging her, sharing a bit (more) story, taking picture, story again, and saying goodbye. She smelled good :) I didn't :(. Whereas I was wearing Chanel Jacket. I forgot the N°.5...
Thanks to Monique Coleman, for coming to Jakarta and encouraging us, young gen, to be more aware and caring to others. Thanks to @America and nice staff. Thanks to Signore Michele Zaccheo from UN, for inviting Monique to come to Indonesia.
Signorefandi, spread the love, to all fans, lovers, and haters!!!
