Mugi Karsaa mberkahi sadaya kemawon ingkang kawula tresnani saha ingkang kepanggih kawula ing dinten punika, nanging langkung-langkung sadherek-sadherek ingkang saweg nandhang kasusahan lan mbetahaken panglipur Dalem Gusti.

Ing wayah esuk
mangsane wong tangi turu,
tangia gregah;
aja ndadak nganggo nuruti aras-arasen.
Iki kanggo nggulang watak satriya.
Enggal ngunjukake urip ingarsa Dalem.

Ngunjukake pagawean ing sadina-dinane iku perlu banget,
awit kabeh kang kolakoni,menawa kounjukake ing Gusti,
ngundhakake kamulyan Dalem.
Uripmu banjur ora muspra.
Dadi salaras banget karo karsaning Pangeran.

Yen uripmu cocok karo karsa Dalem Gusti,
iku jenenge urip temenan,
pantes, lan drajating manungsa,
tur uripmu uga bakal begja.

PADUPAN KENCANA

Time to Get Going

There’s an old story about a man who heard a neighbor playing the clarinet.

"Boy, you’re a good clarinet player," he said. "Could you teach me to play?" The clarinetist said, "If you want to make that commitment, of course I could. It takes time to get good." "How long?" asked the prospective student. "In seven years you’d be quite good," replied the musician. "Seven years! I’ll be 46 years old in seven years!" Said the clarinet player: "How old will you be if you don’t study clarinet?"

How old will you be in seven years if you don’t pursue your dream? Get started now.
