LIFE isn't always easy No one ever promised it would be. But it can be WONDERFUL at times, And it's up to us to make those times happen. WHERE? Beginning within. WHEN? With the dawn of each new day. HOW? Listen to your heart .. And it will really show you the way.

say hello...say goodbye...
A hundred days had made me older since the last time that I've saw your pretty face
A thousand lights had made me colder and I don’t think I can look at this the same
But all the miles had separate
They disappear now when I’m dreaming of your face
I’m here without you baby but your still on my lonely mind
I think about you baby and I dream about you all the time
I’m here without you baby but your still with me in my dreams
And tonight it’s only you and me
The miles just keep rollin as the people either way to say hello
I've heard this life is overrated but I hope that it gets better as we go
I’m here without you baby but your still on my lonely mind
I think about you baby and I dream about you all the time
I’m here without you baby but your still with me in my dreams
And tonight girl it’s only you and me
Everything I know, and anywhere I go it gets hard but it won’t take away my love
And when the last one falls, when it’s all said and done it get hard but it won’t take away my love I’m here without you baby but your still on my lonely mind
I think about you baby and I dream about you all the time
I’m here without you baby but your still with me in my dreams
And tonight girl it’s only you and me

..a b o u t LOVE
for me????? to deal with love you must Have a heart that never hardens, and a temper that never tires, and a touch that never hurts.
often times, i love someone but that person refused it or someone loves me but i don't feel that way. so i think, if someone loves you it's not so special but if you love someone that is special. Because if you wished to be loved, love..

I'll Do Anything FOR U
Though you're not here
Since you said we're through
It seems like years
Time keeps draggin' on and on
And forever's been and gone
Still I can't figure what went wrong
I'd still do anything for you
I'll play your game
You hurt me through and through
But you can have your way
I can pretend each time I see you
That I don't care and I don't need you
And, though you'll never see me cryin'
You know, inside, I feel like dying
And I'd do anything for you
In spite of it all
I've learned so much from you
You made me strong
But don't you ever think that I don't love you
That, for one minute, I forgot you
But, sometimes, things don't work out right
And (I) just have to say goodbye
I hope you find someone to please you
Someone who'll care and never leave you
But, if that someone ever hurts you
You just might need a friend to turn to
And I'd do anything for you
I'll give you up
If that's what I should do
To make you happy
Don't you ever think that I don't love you
That, for one minute, I forgot you
But, sometimes, things don't work out right
And (I) just have to say goodbye
some can work this thing out but some failed... to bad we are not in the same team. But I would not regret the past, just closed another chapter of my life and begins with the new one!
I let you go..
04 April 2005

When I heard about his illness and after that I start to receive a sms, told that he was died (rumor), I do not really pay attention to that. I think he is old anyway, what can you expect from a person in 84 years of age. Till it really happen, that he is gone, I heard this news when I attend a morning mass, last Sunday. Oh God I feel pain in my heart. He is a great person, a great Pope. He fought till the very last minute of his life.

Be Not Afraid
An atheist's tribute to the good shepherd
I’m 60, a man who long ago stopped believing in God, the types of God fashioned by man, the type of God believed in by John Paul II. But, on this day of grief, April 3, 2005, I honor, in my own way the passing of this great man.
Even an atheist must honor a man like John Paul II. This man, this pope, lived the ideals that he professed, the ideals of Christianity, and did so aggressively. No sitting in Rome for John Paul II. He traveled the world with relentlessness; he movingly kissed the soil of each new land arrived at. He reached out to the sick, the poor, the dispossessed. He lectured the rich and powerful. He was conservative in the finest sense of that word, even for me a liberal, for he loved sinners and forgave them even while setting, through his agenda, very strict standards.
His conservatism never seemed ugly, punitive, unforgiving. What stunning leadership. He fought communism and I wonder if the full story of his leadership against that doctrine will ever be fully known? A son of Poland, perhaps her greatest, his life span had allowed him to see close up the evils of the 20th Century’s enslaving doctrines.
He used that insight wisely and relentlessly. Across the globe, wherever he went, the faithful would gather to catch a glimpse of this man who spoke of a better world. And so, even non-believers like me mourn his passing. We join the ranks of those who will miss him. And we smile with appreciation knowing that stubborn and skeptical though we may be, John Paul viewed people like us with love, tolerance and above all faith. He,through the experience of his decades, knew that ultimately faith is so much stronger than doubt. He was and will remain the good shepherd. —Peter Twomey, Marshfield, MA

Doing The Best Thing..
Yesterday, I'm browsing some website, and I found very interesting quotation:
Work like you don't need the money
Love like you've never been hurt
Dance like nobody's watching
Sing like nobody's listening
Live like it's heaven on Earth
The first time I read that, I said it's impossible!! but after deep thought, I know that is what Gandhi, Mother Theresa did it..even when they are not in earth anymore but time has written their name in the stone.
If we put our name in the sand, the wind will easily blow out, but if our name written on the stone, wind can't take anywhere...

Someone That I Used To Love
As for me, it's getting down/To the last unspoken part/When you must begin to ease The pain of a broken heart/Tell me why should I even care/If I have to lose your love/From now on you're only someone That I used to love
I wish it was enough for you/All the love I had to give/And I did my best to keep you satisfied/I guess you'll never know/How much I tried, I really tried/And if ever our paths should cross again/Well, you won't find me/Being the one to get lost again/Once I had so much to give/But you just refused my love/From now on you're only someone That I used to love
And I did my best to keep you satisfied/I guess you'll never know How much I tried, I really tried/And if ever our paths should cross again/Well, you won't find me Being the one to get lost again/Once I had so much to give/But you just refused my love/From now on you're only someone That I used to love
Tonight you're someone in this world/That I'll always choose to love/From now on you're only someone That I used to love/Hoo, from now on you're only someone That I used to love
Easter Blessing..
I take this life by making one small step each day I woke up. My life is like a serendipity, this is true. Though I want him, but consider the depths between us, I never ask for more and I never expected too much.
So..if this is my cross, I take that risk, I'm trying to build the bridge between us..
Xmas, New Year, His B'day, Valentines Day, Easter Day..it's a blessed from up above for me and him.

Between Friendzz
I'm not sure, what should i put in this blog, the last time i try to write bout "time", I couldn't publish my post.
I want to tell a story bout God's Two Boxes, I received this story this morning, on my email box.
I have in my hands two boxes, Which God gave me to hold.
He said, "Put all your sorrows in the black box, And all your joys in the gold."
I heeded His words, and in the two boxes, Both my joys and sorrows I stored,
But though the gold became heavier each day, The black was as light as before.
With curiosity, I opened the black, I wanted to find out why, And I saw, in the base of the box, a hole,Which my sorrows had fallen out by.
I showed the hole to God, and mused,"I wonder where my sorrows could be!"He smiled a gentle smile and said,"My child, they're all here with me."
I asked God, why He gave me the boxes, Why the gold and the black with the hole?
"My child, the gold is for you to count your blessings, The black is for you to let go and let GOD ."
After I read that, I begins to count my blessings, my first blessing this morning, I woke up in healthy body then my second blessings I arrived save in the office, then it's a blessings, I can chat with two my lovely bestfriends, and in the lunch time..It's a blessing that, finally I can call him. The Blessing still continue..
I believe if I put all my problems in God's boxes, his hands will carry me out of my problem.
He sent an angel, call friendz..to help me out and solve my problem, to motivate me, to stand besides me, so I don't feel lonely...

Soulmate
"A soulmate is someone who has locks that fit our keys, and keys to fit our locks."
Somedays ago, my friend told me, her soulmate could be He or She.
I think it's true..because I realize, that a soulmate is the one who makes life come to life.
For other person, we could be a soulmate or even an angel.
Yes, we are an angel with one wing, we can only fly if we hold each other wings.
Today, I have found out my soulmate and my angel..
In time of trouble I will turn on you (irene) asking your wing, so we could fly together.
In the hard time, I found out that God always carry me out, he always send his angel..

I can’t stop lovin’ you
We can push with all our might, but nothin’s gonna come
Oh no, nothin’s gonna change
And if I asked you not to try
Oh could you let it be
I wanna hold you and say
We can’t throw this all away
Tell me you won’t go, you won’t go
Do you have to hear me say
I can’t stop lovin’ you
And no matter what I say or do
You know my heart is true, oh I can’t stop loving you
You can change your friends, your place in life
You can change your mind, we can change the way we say
And do anytime Oh no, but I think you’ll find
That when you look inside your heart
Oh baby, I’ll be there, yeah
Hold on I’m holding on Baby,
just come on, come on, come on
I just wanna hear you say
I can’t stop lovin’ you
And no matter what you say or do
You know my heart is true, oh I can’t stop lovin’ you
Oh, I’m so twisted and tied
And all I remember
Was how hard we tried
Only to surrender
And when it’s over I know how it’s gonna be
And true love will never die
No, not fade away And I can’t stop lovin’ you
No matter what I say or do
You know my heart is true, oh I can’t stop lovin’ you
And I know what I got to do
Hey ray, what you said is true I can’t stop lovin’ you, oh Oh,
I can’t stop lovin’ you

HAVE YOU EVER ?
Have you ever been down and out and nobody seems to be around for you to talk to? THAT'S GOD wanting you to talk to Him.
Have you ever been thinking about somebody that you haven't seen in a long time and then next thing you know you see them or receive a phone call from them?
THAT'S GOD. There is no such thing as coincidence.
Have you ever received something wonderful that you didn't even ask for, like money in the mail, a debt that had mysteriously been cleared, or a coupon to a department store where you had just seen something you needed, but couldn't afford?
THAT'S GOD knowing the desires of your heart.
Have you ever been in a situation and you had no clue how it was going to get better, how the hurting would stop, how the pain would ease, but now you look back on it. . .. THAT'S GOD passing us through tribulation to see a brighter day
A Great Week
Look I'm trying to write in English, though it's not easy, cause been so long not to use english in my daily conversation. Hope u can understand that.
All I can say, that last week I have a great time, because you are there..
You are a nice person, and thanks for mention my name in your blog :)
Thanks for adding some comments to my blog, and thanks for writing a poetry for me. That's one thing in common..
Thanks for the picture of Christian Bautista, I guess I don't want to grow old because of him :P
and thanks for being my friend!
I hope we could meet in person..

Kapan yaah
Ketika hidup seperti....................
ketika lelah menunggu...............
ketika ga tau mesti mengambil keputusan..........
ketika sangat-sangat bosan....
kau ingatkan masih ada satu kata..BERSYUKUR..
bahwa:
masih bisa merasakan hidup
masih diberi kesempatan menunggu (walau tak tahu kapan dapat jawabannya)
masih diberi pilihan
masih diberi rutinitas,,,,,,
above all Tuhan meminta kita menunggu karena mempunyai alasan.

WHEN TIME TO c h o o s e
When time to choose comes, yang ada ga segampang bayangan tapi ga sesulit yang dibayangin
LOOOHH? maksudnya gimana nih
kalo ada 2 pilihan: A dan B
tetap masih ada pilihan ke 3
dan pilihan itu adalah tidak memilih A dan B atau malah memilih kedua-duanya.
Kalo tidak memilih A dan B, sounds fair for A and B, but not for me..
Kalo memilih kedua-duanya naah ini baru fair for me, tapi ga buat A & B (but who cares bout that) as long as make me happy....
so selfish!!

CinTapuccino
baru baca kata pengantarnya aja dah gue banget..quarter life crisis..
baca ini novel bikin gue bisa berdamai dengan "keinginan hati" dan mempercayai segala sesuatu ada waktunya juga mempercayai proses.
Toh kalo jodoh, ada aja jalannya untuk ketemu!!
setiap orang mempunyai kisah cinta sendiri dan itulah indahnya hidup..
Ga selamanya yang namanya obsesi itu berarti negatif.
1. Apakah gue pernah mempunyai seorang "nemo" ? YUP..
2. Apakah gue pernah menjadi "rahmi" ? sure, I was..(and don't like it)
3. Apakah masih terobsesi dengan seseorang? yeaah

Love Takes Time
One day it was announced to the feelings that the island would sink, so all repaired their boats and left.
Love was the only one who stayed. Love wanted to persevere until the last possible moment. When the island was almost sinking, Love decided to ask for help.
Richness was passing by Love in a grand boat. Love said, "Richness, can you take me with you?" Richness answered, "No, I can't. There is a lot of gold and silver in my boat. There is no place here for you."
Love decided to ask Vanity who was also passing by in a beautiful vessel, "Vanity, please help me!" "I can't help you Love. You are all wet and might damage my boat," Vanity answered.
Sadness was close by so Love asked for help, "Sadness, let me go with you." "Oh...Love, I am so sad that I need to be by myself!"
Happiness passed by Love too, but she was so happy that she did not even hear when Love called her!
Suddenly, there was a voice, "Come Love, I will take you."
It was an elder. Love felt so blessed and overjoyed that Love even forgot to ask the elder her name.
When they arrived at dry land, the elder went her own way. Love, realizing how much Love owed the elder, asked Knowledge, another elder, " Who helped me?"
"It was Time," Knowledge answered.
"Time?" asked Love. "But why did Time help me?"
Knowledge smiled with great Wisdom and answered, "Because only Time is capable of understanding how great Love is."

I really care bout YOU
awalnya I can't go on another day without thinking about you, seing you, and hear your voice
selalu menantikan kesempatan bertemu..
dan kini..malah lega melihatmu tidak berada disampingku..
walau aku masih merindu tapi aku lega.
Mungkin..
aku mulai terbiasa tanpamu, tanpa percakapan yang hangat, tanpa kata-katamu yang merindu.
Aaaggghh..senangnya mempunyai waktu sendiri tanpa memikirkanmu.
Aagghh leganya..
I CARE BOUT YOU BUT NOT SURE YET!

Hari pertama tiba, my schedule, makan (laper dari jam 5 dah pergi dari Depok), trus check in dan nyekar ke mbah putri dan om, sebelah selatan yogya... don't see my family there because my uncle have to go to city soon! then go to Salam (daerah Magelang) menghadiri acara siraman nuke dan nemenin midodareni..
Jam 20.30 dijemput lagi dan lgs menuju hotel, eeh sempat juga muter-muter nyari toko buah yg masih buka (walah) ternyata bu nuke, lupa blum beli buah buat persembahan. Trus sampai hotel, ganti baju, dan jalan ke malioboro, nyari makanan buat temen-temen yg baru aja datang..lesehan di malioboro, sumpah bakal kecewa, ga enak, dan mahal, disitu harga ayam goreng bisa 9000..lohhh!! ini kan jogja bukan jakarta..jelas mahal banget! tapiii mas pengamennya boleh juga..heuhehhee..mitra bestari ampe speechles, jadi mo request satu lagu neeh.
Sabtu pagi..ke pemberkatan nuke di salam, foto-foto dan kemudian pulang ke sosrowijayan, terus ke kota gede, cari perak, beli cincin terus ke kasongan lihat pernak-pernik, kalo dah punya rumah sendiri pengen juga nih dekor dengan pernak-pernik yang cute dan etnik. Malam ke resepsi di Balai Sinta...foto-foto..emang cewe-cewe ini banci kamera semua ga nahan liat ada kamera!!
Malam minggu, ke alun-alun ngidul, niatnya mo buktiin jalan lurus melewati dua pohon beringin tapi ga pada punya nyali, ramai banget di lapangan, dah deh ga usah ntar malah nubruk orang!!!Weeh ramenya alun-alun..berderet penjual wedang ronde, akhirnya lesehan di tikar pesen wedang ronde (cukup 2000 saja semangkuk kecil), ngobrool sambil liat orang-orang yg pada nyasar lewatin pohon beringin then go home sleep tight! (Ngantuuk berat)
Minggu pagi, jam 10..ke Taman Sari naik becak pulang pergi 10 ribu! rutenya sosrowijayan-taman sari-jalan pathuk-es eni. Selama 3 hari disana langganan di es eni, cukup murah untuk ukuran jakarta terus ditambah banyak pilihan makanan dan lumayan bersih!

I know I'm kinda strange, to you sometimes
Don't always say, what's on my mind
You know that I've been hurt, by some guy
But I don't wanna mess up this time
And I really really really care
And I really really really want you
And I think I'm kinda scared
Cos I don't want to lose you
If you really really really care
Then maybe you can hang through
I hope you understand
It's nothing to you
My heart's at a low
I'm so much to manage
I think you should know that
I've been damaged
I'm falling in love
There's one disadvantage
I think you should know that I've been damaged
I might look through your stuff, for what I don't wanna find
Or I might just set you up, to see if you're all mine
I'm a little paranoid, from what I've been through
Don't know what you got yourself into
And I really really really care (and I care about you so much)
And I really really really want you (I really do want you)
And I think I'm kinda scared (but I'm scared with every touch)
Cos I don't want to lose you (cos I don't want to lose you)
If you really really really care (if you care for me like you say)
Then maybe you can hang through (then maybe you can hang through)
I hope you understand (I hope you understand)
It's nothing to you (it's nothing to you, you)
My heart's at a low (low)
I'm so much to manage
I think you should know that (I think you should know)
I've been damaged
I'm falling in love (I'm falling in love)
There's one disadvantage
I think you should know that I've been damaged (I think you should know that)

Kisah Ila
Kisah Ila seorang istri dari pasangan muda yang baru hidup 1 tahun, suatu malam...ketika sang suami sudah tertidur lelap disampingnya, ila masih terjaga, ditatapnya wajah suaminya, dan Ila hanya bisa menggerutu dalam hati melihat sosok sebenarnya jauh dari idaman, palagi ketika sang suami mulai mendengkur dan mengeluarkan ingus semakin jijik rasanya, akhirnya dia menutup wajah dengan bantal dan mencoba tidur dengan segala kebisingan galauan suara hati. kemudian dalam mimpi, dia hidup dalam suasana yang sangat membahagiakan, ditemani sosok idaman yang begitu mempesona sesuai dengan yang dia inginkan, begitu terasa hidup mimpi itu, sampai-sampai tersenyum berkali-kali dalam tidur. Namun, suatu ketika dia terbangun, karena kaki sang suami menimpa tubuh, memang seringkali sang suami tidur jumpalitan tak karuan, dan ini yang keseribu kalinya mimpi indah lenyap gara-gara kejadian yang sama, dia pun melolot, dan tanpa sadar untuk pertama kalinya membentak sang suami dengan kata kasar.
Sang suami pun terbangun dan meminta maaf, dan dengan sabarnya membujuk untuk tetap tenang, setelah uring-uringan, untuk yang pertama kalinya juga, akhirnya Ila bisa meredam emosi, kemudian dia bertanya atas pertanyaan yang akhir-akhir ini ingin disampaikan, "mengapa kamu menikahiku?", sang suami pun menjawab "memang kamu bukan cewek idamanku sayang... tapi dari sekian waktu kita habiskan bersama aku memilih untuk menjadikanmu pasangan hidup, yang akan selalu kuperhatikan, kusayangi , kucintai selamanya, karena memang aku sudah memilihmu... aku sadar kalau aku selalu mencari sosok idaman, ada kemungkinan kan kudapatkan, tapi ada kemungkinan juga aku kan selalu mencari hingga Tuhan memanggil, karena bisa jadi aku takkan pernah punya kesempatan bertemu dengan sosok idamanku itu , atau malah sosok idamanku akan menghindar tuk mencari idamannya juga, jadi kapan waktuku tuk membina keluarga? menyayangi dan disayangi seseorang? hanya Tuhan yang tau sayang..." terhenyak Ila mendengarnya, penjelasan yang jauh dari keegoisan, kata-kata yang sangat jauh dari kepentingan sudut pandang pribadi,
akhirnya Ila pun terharu dan mulai saat itu tak pernah mengingat-ingat sosok idaman, sosok itu telah dia kubur dalam-dalam, dan dia dapat menerima suaminya dengan segala kekurangan yang dimiliki...
Jadi, tidakah kau mengerti, bahwa pasangan hidup kita adalah memang yang terbaik, tak perlu menghabiskan waktu dan energi untuk selau memikirkan kekurangan yang ada, karena tidak akan pernah kau dapatkan pasangan yang sesuai dengan keinginanmu, karena pasanganmu adalah apa yang ada disekitarmu, yang sebetulnya bisa kau raih bila kau membuka mata dan hatimu atas segala kelebihan dan kekurangan yang kau dan dia miliki. Karena pasanganmu adalah yang ada didepanmu, yang semestinya kau dapat ,bila kau memberikan hatimu, untuk mengisi yang kurang dan mengurangi yang berlebihan atas apa yang ada pada dirimu dan dia.
Oke begitu aja ceritanya, pokoknya be responsible on your choise-lah, selalu ada banyak pilihan untuk kita, selalu menggerutu atas kekurangan yang ada atau menerima kekurangan yang ada dengan ikhlas sehingga hiduppun terasa sederhana, tidak memberatkan dan lebih menyenangkan.
Gimana bahkan sehirup napas dalam diakhir cerita pun akan selalu menyegarkan pikiran kita...yuppp!!
bagi petualang cinta, teruskan aja, kau sudah memilih untuk hidup mengelana, tidak ada yang salah ko, cuma lebih sadari aja bahwa hidup bagimu lebih menyenangkan dengan berpetualang!
bagi yang memilih untuk menikah, sadari aja bahwa kau telah memutuskan untuk menikah, bukankah itu adalah keputusanmu sendiri atas sekian banyak pilihan yang ada?
bagi jomblo mania, tau...aaahh kenapa se ndak pacaran? ndak laku kali...hehehe sorry, that is your decision to live alone, sadari itu! bukankah selama ini kau menikmati kesendirian itu? semuanya adalah keputusanmu sendiri! dari sekian banyak pilihan yang ada. Sadari dan bertanggung jawab aja, tak ada orang lain yang menentukan arah hidup, semuanya ditanganmu sobat!
The Serenity Prayer
God grant me the serenity
to accept the things I cannot change;
courage to change the things I can;
and wisdom to know the difference.
Living one day at a time;
Enjoying one moment at a time;
Accepting hardships as the pathway to peace;
Taking, as He did, this sinful world as it is,
not as I would have it;
Trusting that He will make all things right if
I surrender to His Will;
That I may be reasonably happy in this life
and supremely happy with Him Forever in the next.
Amen.

Tuesday morning!!
of course in the meantime doing my job and listening to favorite song.
Tonight gonna think deeply what I'm going to do next year..
Make some resolutions so I could be a better man each year..
Gonna drive my car with anybody who willing to stay with me (sound so simple)
This is what I gonna do............
Take twelve, fine, full-grown months,
see that these are thoroughly free
from all old memories of bitterness, rancor, hate and jealousy;
cleanse them completely from every clinging spite:
pick off all specks of pettiness and littleness;
in short , see that these months are freed from all the past;
have them as fresh and clean as when they first came from the great storehouse of Time.
Cut these months into thirty or thirty-one equal parts.
This batch will keep for just one year.
Do not attempt to make up the whole batch at one time
(so many persons spoil the entire lot in this way),
but prepare one day at a time, as follows:
Into each day put twelve parts of faith,
eleven of patience, ten of courage,
nine of of work (some people omit this ingredient and so spoil the flavor of the rest),
eight of hope,
seven of fidelity,
six of liberality,
five of kindness,
four of rest (leaving this out is like leaving the oil out of the salad, don't do it),
three of prayer,
two of meditation,
and one well selected resolution.
If you have no conscientious scruples,
put in about a teaspoonful of good spirits,
a dash of fun, a pinch of folly, a sprinkling of play,
and a heaping cupful of good humor.
Pour into the whole love ad libitum and mix with a vim.
Cook thoroughly in a fervent heat;
garnish with a few smiles and a sprig of joy;
then serve with quietness, unselfishness, and cheerfulness,
and a Happy New Year is certain

I'm missing something rEaL
can I survive if I choose this way?
How long should I wait? two or three years??
what should I do next? I've been thinking this over and over
it's not an easy thing to go..
maybe I'm worried to much??
if I meet a great person, do I have any courage to hold him?
to work out things and make it real?
now..I'm missing something real..

A minus
Segera kuraih handuk, kuambil peralatan mandi, dan melangkah menuju kamar mandi. Sepuluh menit kemudian, keluar dari kamar mandi, tubuh terasa segar terkena guyuran air dan kulit terasa lembab karena telah dibersihkan dengan sabun mandi, siap memulai aktivitas selanjutnya. Pagi ini agenda harianku adalah pergi ke kantor, bekerja, dan kemudian sepulang bekerja langung menuju rumah untuk berlibur.
Liburan memang sudah membayangi hariku, hanya perlu menjalani delapan jam dan selanjutnya bebas. Tidak ada kewajiban pergi ke kantor untuk bekerja, tidak ada kuliah dan tidak perlu bangun pagi selama seminggu. Ide-ide sudah bermunculan memenuhi kepala, apa yang akan kulakukan selama seminggu nanti.
Namun sayang, lamunanku harus terputus karena ojek motor yang membawaku menuju kantor telah sampai di pelataran parkir depan kantor. Suasana di pelataran parkir tidak seperti biasanya, kali ini tidak nampak satupun mobil walau waktu telah menunjukkan pukul sembilan pagi.
Suasana di dalam kantor sama senyapnya dengan keadaan di luar. Beberapa teman telah mengambil cuti, dan yang tersisa belum semuanya hadir. Segera ku menuju ruanganku untuk menaruh tas kantor di dalam laci meja, dan kemudian mulai membuka berkas-berkas yang telah menanti untuk diselesaikan.
Tak terasa 20 menit telah berlalu, dua lembar surat telah selesai kuketik dan selama itu tidak ada satupun telepon masuk mengganggu pekerjaanku. Mulai aku menyadari bahwa dua hari menjelang lebaran, rupanya membuat orang sibuk menyiapkan datangnya lebaran, dan melupakan sementara pekerjaan. Apalagi besok adalah hari terakhir berpuasa, tentunya banyak yang memakai hari ini untuk berbelanja kebutuhan merayakan hari Lebaran.
Pikiranku kembali melayang, jauh ke masa lalu, mengingat makna lebaran sewaktu aku masih berusia tujuh atau delapan tahun. Lebaran di masa lalu, berarti memakai baju baru, memasak ketupat, membuat kue-kue kering yang enak, dan bersalam-salaman, meminta maaf di hari Raya. Betapa menyenangkan masa lalu, semuanya kelihatan indah dan polos. Tiba-tiba terdengar suara Manajer Personalia dari intercom yang mengatakan, bahwa kantor hanya akan buka setengah hari untuk hari ini dan karyawan diperbolehkan meninggalkan kantor jam satu nanti.
Melonjak kegirangan hati ini mendengar berita tersebut, segera kuraih gagang telepon dan menelepon ke rumah, meminta dijemput pukul dua nanti. Tak sabar hati ini, menunggu jam dua. Pikiranku kembali melambung, menuju sebuah kebun teh di kawasan Puncak, dimana terdapat sebuah vila mungil dengan tiga kamar tidur, sebuah taman yang ditumbuhi bunga mawar merah dan ditengah taman ada pancuran air yang terbuat dari bambu kuning, dan kolam ikan mas. Tempat yang sangat kurindukan untuk menghabiskan liburan, jauh dari keramaian kota dan hawa yang masih sejuk bebas dari asap kendaraan bermotor dan asap pabrik.

Happines and Sadness
Life is Beautiful
Life can seem ungrateful and not always kind.
Life can pull at your heartstrings and play with your mind...
Life can be blissful and happy and free...
Life can put beauty in the things that you see...
Life can place challenges right at your feet...
Life can make good of the hardships we meet...
Life can overwhelm you and make your head spin...
Life can reward those determined to win...
Life can be hurtful and not always fair...
Life can surround you with people who care...
Life clearly does offer its Up and its Downs...
Life's days can bring you both smiles and frowns...
Life teaches us to take the good with the bad...
Life is a mixture of happy and sad...
Life is beautiful if you want it that way...

Jangan Berpikir Terlalu Dalam
Jangan menganalisa hidup ini..apa yang sudah terjadi terima saja, dan anggaplah bahwa itu bagian dari suatu kehidupan.
The big things appears because of the small one
Ide besar muncul dari ide-ide yang sebenarnya sederhana..
Kalau kau menganalisa hidup ini, dan terus mencari jawabannya, kau mungkin bisa mendapatkan jawaban yang memunculkan pertanyaan lain..begitu terus hingga akhirnya kau sadari hidup bukan hanya untuk mencari jawaban.
So it's better to make some action rather than discuss about life :)
I write this, not because I don't like with your question, tetapi karena hidup ini lebih indah bila kau menikmati saja apa yang hidup berikan untukmu.
Life just gives you time and space, it's up to you to fill it...

Take Two Lemons and Make Lemonade
(By Elaine L. Galit)
Our house invariably had an aroma of "home." Scents like the mouthwateringzest of frying onions at dinner time, and crisp vanilla spice that wafted through the rooms during the day. But after six months wading through the loneliness of widowhood, I realized I didn't like the whiff of sad staleness now permeating the house.
I'd drifted through those last months as though half of me was missing. Not strange, I suppose, after forty years of marriage to the same man. But a day arrived when I realized I had to decide what the rest of my life would belike. Did I want to wander the empty rooms being half a person, or did I want to get out and see if I couldn't become whole again? And if I did want to repair my psyche, how would I go about achieving this metamorphosis?
My children and grandchildren helped me decide."You love to write, Mom," they chorused.
"Write a book."Write a book? I thought. At my age?
But how many times had I told my children to live their dream? It wasstrange, however, to realize I might be able to live my old dream; a visionswallowed up for so many years with housework, husband and children.
Not that I would change a minute of it; that was my life and I loved it.But it wasn't my destiny anymore, and, as the homily goes, the sooner I realized it the better. Time has a way of slip-sliding through your life and before you know it, your children are married and have children of theirown.
Let's face it, if life is made up of seasons I've got autumn challenging me,I thought. Did I want to find out what else life could possibly contain for me, or windup a shriveled, bitter old person? That question made me shudder. I'd always been an active optimist. Over the years when my children jumped from sports to dance and back again, I'd volunteered for everything from Girl Scouts,through mentoring youngsters, to vice president or secretary of the many clubs and organizations I'd joined.
Then, for eighteen years I'd run my own business, a candy and gift shop. Later I'd handled events and promotions for a local bookstore. I had what is now referred to as "life experiences."
So, did I want to start an other business? Volunteer somewhere? When my husband was alive, I'd published a few articles in various magazines. However, my children were correct; I'd always wanted to write a book. Before I had a chance to dwell in other areas, a new world opened up.
An editor, hearing about my desire to link my love of children with my love of Houston, approached me through a mutual friend. Would I write about Houston and what children could see and do in my city? Interesting - I'd tossed adesire into the universe and an answer had drifted down. Without anywarning, I had my chance to write that book. From then on, my life took off in another direction.
I spoke with a good friend and we tossed around ideas. Before I knew it, we were on our way. We'd write a special book. Forget the lists, we'd base ourbook on the core curriculum here in Houston. We researched, interviewed and photographed our way though museums, parks, science exhibits and the manyhidden treasures to be found in our city.
When the book was published, I glowed with pride and my children stifled"I-told-you-sos." But I was even more thrilled when a national bookstorechain named us "Authors of the Month" in our area, and a major literary group asked us to be featured authors for their annual literacy event.
Before we knew it, we had a second contract, and my world and work continued to expand. At the same time, trying for a social life and further development of my"right brain," I went to Sedona, Arizona, for an Elderhostel art sampler.While watercolor wasn't my thing, I loved working with colored pencils. Backin town, I joined an Artist's Way group facilitated by my co author and began colored pencil painting.
Once again the universe sent help in the form of a supportive and synergistic group of people who are not only talented, butshare their love of art and joy of living. At the urging of one of theartists in the group, I agreed to enter a local art show. To my great surprise, I won three ribbons and sold a painting. I could have stayed at home and felt sorry for myself.
Thank goodness I didn't. Oh, don't get me wrong; I did stay at home, but it wasn't to moan about my loss, but rather to work at fulfilling my life's dream.
While doing so, I was also filling my life with something meaningful.I've always known we have many choices in this world. The trick is to select correctly; don't opt to drain life, choose to fulfill life.
As I write this, I'm pursuing both my writing and art careers. And loving every minute of it.Yes, the fall season of life is a challenge. But I realize that when those lemons start falling from the trees in summer, it's wise to collect them. Autumn, especially here in Houston, is still hot. What better than to mix some lemonade with ice tea and sip while working on the latest project?
Action, the joy of living life, throws winter far into the future.

To Be With You
Hold on little girl
Show me what he's done to you
Stand up little girl
A broken heart can't be that bad
When it's through, it's through
Fate will twist the both of you
So come on baby come on over
Let me be the one to show you
I'm the one who wants to be with you
Deep inside I hope you feel it too
Waited on a line of greens and blues
Just to be the next to be with you
Build up your confidence
So you can be on top for once
wake up who cares about
Little boys that talk too much
I've seen it all go down
Your game of love was all rained out
So come on baby, come on over
Let me be the one to hold you
Chorus
Why be alone when we can be together baby
You can make my life worthwhile
And I can make you start to smile
When it's through, it's through
Fate will twist the both of you
So come on baby come on over
Let me be the one to show you
I WANT YOU....
I want you to realize that one day in the past you really bright my life
I want you to think that life is sweet even if I'm not there
I want you to see that I care in my own way...
I want you to smile when you see me although we're not lover anymore
I want you to forgive me for not being there when you needed me..
I want you to understand that you can have a happines without me..

Putaran Waktu
She said, "Dear mommy.. what my life will be when I grow up?"
her mom said..what ever you want to be that is you when you grown up
she can't understand it at that time
and then..life goes by...she wasn't a little girl anymore
she's now a working woman, she gets up at 6 am and working till late at night
she has a cute smile, she has a delicated skin and she has a sexy body..
after all still she asking her mom opinion.."mom, what kind of man, my husband will be?"
her mom answer : "the person that loves you and can understand you"
she doesn't believe it because the last time she has a boyfriend, her boyfriend hurted her very much although at first, he promised to love her and never leave her alone.
Time goes by..until one day.. she understand that life isn't just achieve what you want to be and having a handsome boyfriend, but life is when you can share it with other person, and gives your hand when someone needed and be thankful that God loves you.
