Youth named Ovi is 27 years old.

In the sporting world, the age is usually the peak of his career, which will dim when the age moves into the 30s. But this young man is not an athlete.

In domestic life, usually young people decided to enter into marriage at that age. And like most young men, Ovi also has had a tether heart, even preparing for the wedding schedule for the next few days.

In the social sphere, it is not easy to be a young man who exist at the age of 27 years. Gained popularity at that age really need a long struggle since beginning and outstanding achievements.

How in the world of politics? Twenty-seven years is a beginner who is still crawling and have not been able to stand firmly on the political stage.

Remarkably, the things above do not apply to Ovi.

While many youth at the age of 27 new career in the world of politics, probably served as chairman of the branch, or join in doing demonstrations, or are still actively pursuing a variety of seminars, Ovi has reached a peak stage of the political career of the plume. He was elected as the youngest regents in Indonesia in elections held simultaneously last December.

Not yet reached the age of 30 years, has become regent. Imagine, if his political career and continues to boast a success, how the future of stretching. Governor? Maybe even more. Who knows.

Unfortunately, history then writes something different.

Only about 37 days after the inauguration, as many as 50 members of the union of the National Narcotics Agency (BNN) South Sumatra, South Sumatra Police Drugs Directorate, and Drug Investigation Unit Palembang Police broke down the door Ovi family home.

The father who during the two previous periods served as regent in the same area, trying to block, but finally could no longer protect.

Wazir Ahmad Mawardi Noviadi alias Ovi, the youngest incumbent regent, was arrested when having drug party at his parent house. The reality is very bitter, especially for the size of the government leader. His political career has finish, somehow the continuation of the wedding plans. Clearly the young man must now contemplate the fate behind bars.

That's a life choice. The gift that approaches often ungratefully.

Read the related news youngest regent in this country, I can only wonder. Why wasted?

So much good can be done when we have the power, why are wasted?

So many things to be thankful for, why in waste blessing, ease of God?

And related to his parents, is not one of the parent tasks is to protect children from drugs and various other evils, not a cover-up?

Allah gave so much goodness in every human being, but the choice depends on each individual to maintain all the grace that God has given or destroy it.

If the last few years news tinged with various heads of regions involved in the act of corruption, we are now entering a new era, the head of the area involved in drugs.

News senior officials involved in drugs have often decorate the mass media, but to the level of regional heads caught doing drugs party if I am not mistaken-this being a new record.

The regional head had been due to be the busiest in the region for so many affairs waiting to be resolved. When the case is completed, before they undoubtedly reams of other agenda waiting to be addressed.

A local leader should be an example for people. So, it is normal that the Home Minister Tjahjo Kumolo deeply regrets this incident.

"It is sad and disappointing, as the head of the region should set an example to its citizens, instead showed improper behavior."

Hi, you still get to live

Do not waste the chance of breathing that Allah still gives.

Also every achievement of the conquered after going through so many days of struggle, and whispered prayers.

Read news about the act of Regents youngest, who inspired this writing, it makes me not believe it. Incessantly remind myself to be grateful. Hopefully faith kept awake in order to taste one that never evaporates from the chest. For leaders, gratitude can be realized by not wasting the mandate and the power they have, until fully maximized for the good and welfare of the people.

Do not waste your youth. Remember again gaze and the outpouring of love and dreams of families who raise their children would become a useful figure.

Time is not repeated. That certainty. Do not waste the opportunity that comes. For the same opportunities are not necessarily God give twice in the clutch.
