words of RENDRA

Sering kali aku berkata,

ketika orang memuji milikku,
bahwa sesungguhnya ini hanya titipan,
bahwa mobilku hanya titipan Nya,
bahwa rumahku hanya titipan Nya,
bahwa hartaku hanya titipan Nya,
bahwa putraku hanya titipan Nya,

tetapi,

mengapa aku tak pernah bertanya,
mengapa Dia menitipkan padaku?
Untuk apa Dia menitipkan ini pada ku?

Dan kalau bukan milikku,
apa yang harus kulakukan untuk milik Nya ini?

Adakah aku memiliki hak atas sesuatu yang bukan
milikku?
Mengapa hatiku justru terasa berat,
ketika titipan itu diminta kembali oleh-Nya ?

Ketika semua itu diminta kembali,
kusebut itu sebagai musibah,
kusebut itu sebagai ujian,
kusebut itu sebagai petaka,
kusebut dengan panggilan apa saja
untuk melukiskan bahwa itu adalah derita.

Ketika aku berdoa,
kuminta titipan yang cocok dengan hawa nafsuku,
aku ingin lebih banyak harta,
ingin lebih banyak mobil,
lebih banyak rumah,
lebih banyak popularitas,

dan kutolak sakit,
kutolak kemiskinan,
Seolah ...
semua "derita" adalah hukuman bagiku.

Seolah ...
keadilan dan kasih Nya harus berjalan seperti
matematika:

aku rajin beribadah,
maka selayaknyalah derita menjauh dariku,
dan Nikmat dunia kerap menghampiriku.

Kuperlakukan Dia seolah mitra dagang,
dan bukan Kekasih.

Kuminta Dia membalas "perlakuan baikku",
dan menolak keputusanNya yang tak sesuai
keinginanku,

Gusti,
padahal tiap hari kuucapkan,
hidup dan matiku hanyalah untuk beribadah...

"ketika langit dan bumi bersatu,
bencana dan keberuntungan sama saja"

(WS Rendra).

Life

Life is if you were to die tomorrow
learn as if you were to live forever
.....mahatma gandhi

Life is like a beautiful melody,
only the lyrics are messed up


You have what you have today
because thr things
you worked on yesterday .....__________

Jadi tua itu.....HARUS
tapi jadi dewasa..........itu PILIHAN

Beeing happy doesn't meant everythings perfect........
it means you have decided to see beyond the imperfectsionist.......
God didn't promise day without pain...
Laughter without sorrow...........
Sun without rain..........
But He did promise strength for the day....
Comfort for the tears..........
And light for the day........

LoVe

Love looks not with the eyes,
but wirh the mind
.....shakespeare

Love can sometimes be magic,
but magic can sometimes just be an ilution
....javan

Love is stupid sometimes.........
but everyone will get and take a chance to be stupid
just to get it.....


when you love someone,
you will do crazy things you can't explain
you will deny the truth and believe in lies
when you love someone,
you sacrifice,
give everything you have got and don't think twice
you risk it all, no matter what...

Learn to love the people who are with you at present
forget the people in the past and thank them for hurting you,
which led you to love the people you have right now....
if someone hurts you, betrays you, or breaks your heart,
forgive them for they have helped you learn about trust
and the importance of being cautious
to whom you open your heart

love is not for beauty or colour of the skin,
but for a heart that is loyal within,
for beauty fades and the skin you would grow old,
but a heart that is loyal will never turn cold
love is not the right word to say when you feel guilty
nor the right word to say when you like a person
but love really matters when we share our thoughts, our mind, and our hearts...

A love is easy to feel, so hard to explain
so easy to get, so easy to let it go
so easy to spell, so hard to define
and yet everyone is still talking the risk

if someone loves you, love them back
not only because they love you,
but also because they are teaching you to love
and opening your heart and eyes,
to things you never seen or felt without them

Never be afraid to fall in love,
it may hurt a lot,
it may give you aches and pain,
but if you don't follow your heart,
in the end you will cry
even more for not giving love a chance

we are a little weird
and life is a little weird
and when we find some one whose weirdness is compatible with ours
we join up with them
and fall in love in mutual weirdness and call it LOVE

when you find arms that will hold you at your weakest,
eyes that will see you at your ugliest,
lips that will kiss you in both instances,
and a heart that will love you at your worst,
then you have found true love

they say when love knocks at your door

key

i dont know the key to success,
but the key to failure is to try to please everyone

it takes the hammer of persistance
to drive the nail of success.....WL

minds

minds are like parachutes....................they work best when open
ooo-lord thomas dewar-ooo

how to be in life..

pada saat kau bersuka,
ukurlah ucapan syukurmu
pada saat kau berduka,
ukurlah kesabaran hatimu

be true to your work,
to your word
and your friends......hery david T.


Fear less, hope more;
whine less, breathe more;
talk less, say more;
hate less, love more;
and ALL GOOD THINGS are yours
