Only Love Matters ..

My husband is an Engineer by profession, and I love the warm feeling when I lean against his broad shoulders. Three years of courtship and now, two years into marriage, I would have to admit, that I am getting tired of it. The reasons of me loving him before, has now transformed into the cause of all my restlessness. I am a sentimental woman and extremely sensitive when it comes to a relationship and my feelings, I yearn for the romantic moments, like a little girl yearning for candy.

My husband, is my complete opposite, his lack of sensitivity, and the inability of bringing romantic moments into our marriage has disheartened me about love. One day, I finally decided to tell him my decision, that I wanted a divorce. “Why?” he asked, shocked. “I am tired, there are no reasons for everything in the world!” I answered.

He kept silent the whole night, seems to be in deep thought with a lighted cigarette at all times. My feeling of disappointment only increased, here was a man who can’t even express his predicament, what else can I hope from him? and finally he asked me: “What can I do to change your mind?” Looking deep into his eyes I slowly answered : “Here is the question, if you can answer and convince my heart, I will change my mind, Let’s say, I want a flower located on the face of a mountain cliff, and we both are sure that picking the flower will cause your death, will you do it for me?” He said : “I will give you your answer tomorrow…”

All I Wanted Was "you"

Far away you drifted from me,
A place where I can not see.
Even after being so close,
There you are as pricky as a thorn of a rose.

I let people believe that I don't love you,
And like others you believed it too.
Even after knowing that you are not the one,
Why no one else can do what you have done.

You say i will overcome everything we had,

But its not working and its growing more bad.

It isn't easy as you got me thinking,

With tears my eyes are still blinking.

I hope I overcome you as soon as I can,

Coz I wanna run from my feelings as fast as you ran.

Thinking about the times we shared,

The pains in my heart can all be bared.

If ever you fell like you need me like I do,

Do come back coz I will be always waiting for you.

Obat Penawar Derita

Alkisah, ada seorang ibu muda yang sudah berhari-hari tidak makan, hingga tubuhnya semakin kurus saja. Seorang tabib tua memeriksa denyut nadinya, lalu berkata： 
“Anda memendam begitu banyak masalah dalam hati Anda, sehingga badan menjadi lemah. Karena sebenarnya Anda tidak memiliki penyakit yang parah.”
 

Setelah mendengar diagnosis sang tabib, ibu muda itu merasa sangat lega seperti terlepas dari beban berat. Kemudian, ibu muda itu pun menceritakan semua masalahnya pada sang tabib.

Tabib tua pun bertanya, “Bagaimana perasaan suami Anda terhadap Anda?”

Si ibu muda menjawab dengan tersenyum, “Sangat menyayangi saya.”

Tabib tua bertanya lagi,

“Apakah punya anak?” Dengan penuh ceria si ibu muda menjawab, “Ada, seorang putri, sangat pengertian….”

Selagi tadi bertanya, sang tabib pun menuliskan sesuatu. Setelahnya, ia memperlihatkan tulisannya di dua kertas pada si ibu muda itu.

Lembar yang satu bertuliskan masalah si ibu muda, dan lembaran yang lain berisikan sukacita si ibu muda.

Kemudian, sang tabib berkata pada si ibu muda,

“Kedua kertas ini adalah resep obat untuk penyakit Anda, Anda mencatat semua masalah yang Anda hadapi, dan melupakan sukacita di sekitar Anda.”

Sambil berkata begitu, sang tabib tua menyuruh muridnya membawakan sebaskom air dan tinta. Setelah itu, sang tabib meneteskan tinta hitam ke dalam air yang jernih.

Terlihat warna hijau muda dari tetesan tinta yang mulai menyebar ke seluruh permukaan air.

Dan dalam sekejap, tinta itu tak terlihat lagi.

Sang tabib berkata lagi, “Ketika tinta hitam masuk ke dalam air, warnanya akan memudar. Bukankah kehidupan kita juga begitu?”

I Wish you Enough ..

Recently, I overheard a mother and daughter in their last moments together at the airport as the daughter's departure had been announced. Standing near the security gate, they hugged and the mother said: "I wish you enough."

The daughter replied, "Mom, our life together has been more than enough. Your love is all I ever needed. I wish you enough, too, Mom." They kissed and the daughter left.

The mother walked over to the window where I sat. Standing there, I could see she wanted and needed to cry.

I tried not to intrude on her privacy but she welcomed me in by asking, "Did you ever say good-bye to someone knowing it would be forever?" "Yes, I have," I replied. "Forgive me for asking but why is this a forever good-bye?"

"I am old and she lives so far away. I have challenges ahead and the reality is the next trip back will be for my funeral," she said.

When you were saying good-bye, I heard you say, "I wish you enough." May I ask what that means?"

She began to smile. "That's a wish that has been handed down from other generations. My parents used to say it to everyone." She paused a moment and looked up as if trying to remember it in detail and she smiled even more.

"When we said 'I wish you enough' we were wanting the other person to have a life filled with just enough good things to sustain them". Then turning toward me, she shared the following, reciting it from memory,

"I wish you enough sun to keep your attitude bright.

Why Women are special..

Husband and Wife were watching TV when Wife said, “I’m tired, and it’s getting late. I think I’ll go to bed.” She went to the kitchen to make sandwiches for the next day’s lunches. Rinsed out the bowls, took vegetable out of the freezer for morning, checked the cereal box levels, filled the sugar container, put spoons and bowls on the table and started the coffee pot for brewing the next morning. She then ironed a shirt and secured a loose button. She picked up the game pieces left on the table, put the phone back on the charger and put the telephone book into the drawer. She emptied a wastebasket and hung up a towel to dry.

She yawned and stretched and headed for the bedroom. She stopped by the desk and wrote a note to the teacher and pulled a text book out from hiding under the chair.She signed a birthday card for a friend, Addressed and stamped the envelope and wrote a quick note for the grocery store. She put both near her bag. Then she washed her face, put on her moisturizer, brushed her teeth…..

Palu Menghancurkan Kaca

Apa makna dari pepatah kuno di atas?

 Jika jiwa kita rapuh seperti kaca, maka ketika palu/masalah menghantam, kita akan mudah putus asa, frustasi, kecewa, marah, dan jadi remuk redam.

Jika kita adalah kaca, maka kita juga rentan terhadap benturan.

Kita mudah tersinggung, kecewa, marah, atau sakit hati saat kita berhubungan dengan orang lain. Sedikit benturan sudah lebih dari cukup untuk menghancurkan hubungan kita.
Jangan pernah jadi kaca, tapi jadilah baja.

“Mental baja” adalah mental yang selalu positif, bahkan tetap bersyukur di saat masalah dan keadaan yang benar-benar sulit tengah menghimpitnya.

Japanese Romaji(AKB48 ver.)

Kyou ga donna ichinichi datta ka nante
Kaerimichi kangaeru yo ne
Kanashii koto ya tsurai koto mo aru sa
Tanoshii koto ga kachikoseba ii

Kazoku ya tomodachi ya mawari no hito ni
Shinpai wo kaketaku nakute
Muri ni hohoemi uso ikutsuka tsuite
Kimi dake ga kakaekomu no wa yamete...

Kisetsu no kaze no muki kanjitari
Ashimoto no hana ni kizuitari
Chiisana deai ni sou kansha dekitara
Bokura wa shiawase ni narerunda

Yuuhi ga shizumu sora wo mite iruka?
