    Exactly 1 year ago I shared this song with my best friend the night before I put him to sleep. While I was sharing it with him I remembered all the times my little dog brought me joy, happiness and comfort. I still miss him a lot, but thanks to you I got to relive all the gratitude and love that I still feel for having him over half of my life. Bless you for giving this anniversary a lot of nostalgic comfort

      @@JohnOethGuitar Your music is now my go-to for meditation music particularly on down days.
      I know that you played the Final Fantasy games.
      Final Fantasy VIII was my introduction to Faye Wong. Last year, I began listening to many of her other songs. It helps that I know some Mandarin.
      She has an excellent version of Cranberries Dreams in both Cantonese and Mandarin.
      I first learned to appreciate music in languages I don't know from Final Fantasy. Suteki De Na and Melodies of Life in Japanese. Both are so beautiful yet I don't understand a word.

    Being the first of the FF series that's released on PC (if i remember it correctly), I was lucky enough to watch people play it on their downtime in my dad's then prosperous computer company back in 98 (99?) in China as a kid. For someone who only started to know the series from this instalment, it was something of an eye-opening experience to me. I miss those times, it was still somewhat of a struggle for me but it's a lot simpler back then -- just keep your grades up and all is good. It's been twenty years now, how time flies.

    Cipt : Felix Siauw
    Kita tak lahir ditempat yang sama
    Bahkan hidup kitapun jauh berbeda
    Sikap, sifat, gaya. Cara kita tersendiri
    Benci, murka, marah. dukapun tersendiri
    Tapi kita disatukan impian yang sama
    Diperjalankan dengan langkah yang tak beda
    Digandengkan dengan cita-cita tak ternilai
    Diikat dengan hargai yang tak kan terbeli
    Kerap kali kita berbeda pendapat dan berselisih
    Bagiku aku benar, bagimu kamu lebih benar
    Bagiku kamu salah, bagimu aku lebih salah
    Dan begitulah kisah kita diuji, apakah, persahabatan ini karena Allah
    Berteman memang tak mudah, karena harus memahami
    Berteman memang tak gampang, karena ada pengorbanan disana
    Terkadang aku berfikir haruskah sendiri berjalan
    Seringkali aku tak tahan, mungkin lebih baik sendri
    Menempuh perjalanan ini sendiri selesai lebih lekas
    Tak perlu memikirkan siapapun selain diri sendiri
    Tak usah sakit hati, sebab tak dihiraukan dan dimengerti
    Tapi itukah yang sebenarnya aku inginkan?
    Tidak
    Proses itulah sebenarnya harta, bukan hasil
    Sebab semua siap dengan hasil, tapi tidak siap dengan prosesnya
    Kita bisa cepat sendiri, lebih cepat sendiri
    Tapi kita tidak akan jauh melangkah.
    Canda, tawa, ceria, duka, lara yang dibagi, itulah arti
    Maka aku ditanya tentang arti engkau bagiku, akupun tak tahu
    Yang jelas bersamamu aku malu bermaksiat, Aku jauh dari dosa
    Dengan amalan dan tutur lisanmu aku lebih mudah mengingat Allah
    Itulah arti engkau bagiku, sahabat dalam ketaatan
    Saat manusia didalam kebingungan,
    Saat kita semua dikumpulkan
    Senantiasa berharap engkau dan aku dipanggil Allah, Ar-Rahman
    Diteduhkan kita dengan naungannya
    Dilegakan kita dengan wajahnya
    Dan dikatakan pada kita dengan suara-suara yang sudah kita duga
    Dimanakah orang-orang yang selalu mengasishi karena keagungan-Ku?
    Masuklah surga
    Engkau dan sahabat yang engkau cintai karena aku
    Dan yang lebih mencintai saudaranya, akan mendapatkan tempat yang lebih tinggi
    Dan disaat itu, engkau dan aku, KITA
    Akan bersukur, telah mencinta karena Allah
    Uhibbukum Fillah
    Duhai saudaraku
    Sungguh aku, mencintai kalian semua karena Allah
