    DS : tergantung alesannya
alesan : kalau mau mutusin itu kalau emang alesannya bener-bener jelas, yah gakpapa tapi kalau alesannya gak jelas, rasanya kok labil yah. Kalau gak suka kenapa harus diterima? buat yang ditembak trus mau mutusin. Kalau gak suka kenapa harus ditembak? buat yang nembak tapi mau mutusin. Tapi bukan berarti kita harus selalu diputusin lho.

20. CN : #cumannanya pilih mana putus atau gantung?
      DS : putus.. gantung adalah putus yang tertunda
alesannya : kalau gantung punya alesan yang jelas dan benar-benar penting itu masih bisa di tolerin tapi kalau cuma masalah karna salah paham atau berantem atau yang lain itu mening putus deh,karna berarti ada sesuatu di dia.

21. CN : #cumannanya siapa karakter favorit mu di harry potter?

27. CN : #cumannanya menurut kamu mantan pacar yang baik itu.........
      DS : gak menjijikan, Kalau pernah sayang-sayangan jangan muna(fik) sok gak kenal
alesannya : gue tuh paling gak suka kalau orang abis putus itu tuh mutusin semuanya, silahturahmi kebaikan keramahan atau yang lainnya lah. Karna menurut gue tuh saling kenal buat apa sih bersikap kayak gitu? so,menurut kalian gue salah gak sih, kalau nganggep mantan itu teman?

28.  CN : #cumannanya menurut kamu patah hati tuh ibarat apa?

33. CN : #cumannanya apa reaksi lo di deketin sama temen  pacar lo sendiri?
      DS : woles anggap temen aja kecuali lo nya yang nganggep lebih

39. CN : #cumannanya mending ngejomblo atau pacaran sama orang yang gak kita suka?
      DS : nge-single law~ kasian dia-nya kali

The 10% Factor


I heard a great message this past weekend and I want to pass a part of it along to my friends here in Live BIG! Die Empty. blog land. The speaker was telling me that studies have been done showing that, in baseball, a .273 hitter can double his salary if he can increase his batting percentage to .300. A 10% increase in effectiveness at his job can double his income! Further, another 10% increase could put that same player into stratospheric levels of income and virtually assure his place in the Hall of Fame! 10% is the difference between a guy you've never heard of and Babe Ruth!

I think the same thing is true in your life. You don't have to get a lot better to be a lot better off. You just have get a little better and be consistent with it. Stop stressing out thinking about how far away you are from being where you want to be. My challenge to you is this: How can you get just a little better at what you do? How about sitting down and writing out a few ideas in your journal? Could you make one extra phone call? Go 10% longer on the treadmill when working out? Could you give one extra hug to your significant other?

A small increase in your activity and have a big impact on your effectiveness! So how can you get a little better today?

If Something Doesn't Die, You Haven't Made a Decision.

#LiveBIGDieEmpty - Some people are hindered simply because they haven't mastered the ability to make a decision. They try to exercise all options at the same time...or keep one on hold until they've exhausted the other. But that's not how life works. That's small living.

Big living requires you to decide which way you're going and what you're going to do. Then, once you've decided, do it with all your might! (Ecclesiastes 9:10) It's in the very structure of the word! "De" is from the Latin for "away" or "from" while "cis" means "to cut" or "to kill" so putting them together....


To make a DECISION means to cut something away, from or off! To kill it! That means, if something doesn't DIE, you haven't made a decision. As gruesome as it sounds, you have to kill something for the other thing to thrive. Trying to nourish every little business or relationship just a little bit...enough to keep it alive...only ensures that none of what you do will truly thrive!

Let me share something with my friends today. Not only in the spirit of "keeping it real" but in terms of trying to help someone who needs to hear this today. That's my Live Big Die Empty mission anyway...to help people who feel like they've been living beneath their purpose, potential and privilege for too long.

A friend commented recently, "Mark, you're a rock star!" meaning he believes I'm living a great life. I accept the compliment. Thank you, sir! I will agree that things are trending the way I want them to go. However, as my closer friends will tell you, I have a looonnnnnng way to go to get where I need to be. So I press.

But to the point of my post today. I tend to blog from experience and Godly counsel as best I can. That's the genesis of the blog post I wrote and posted last week regarding decision-making. I can testify that nothing began to turn around in my life until I sat down with my pastor, Thaddeus Eastland of Hope Church Pearland and received this one little nugget of wise counsel: make some decisions. I had been feeling despondent, broken and on the verge of tears because I was feeling beaten by life.

The truth is I was being beaten by life because I was allowing life to beat me.

You see, I'd been trying to live too much of my life on the fence subject to other peoples' whims, emotions and decisions. I wasn't drawing clear lines in my ministry, business or personal life and it was halting my progress in all of those areas. "Make some decisions." Those few words have meant so much to me. I remind myself of them whenever I feel like I've stalled in making progress still to this day.

My encouragement to someone who needs it is as follows: MAKE SOME DECISIONS!

As always, I want to hear from you!!! Please leave me your comments so I know how to serve you better!! If this was helpful, forward it to a friend. Talk to you soon!

Why Does Death Sting?

Death stings for the same reason that aging stings...we feel the loss of opportunity, the loss of hope, the ending of new chances. No matter where any of us are, we all hope for a new beginning starting from wherever we find ourselves...whenever we feel like we've lived less than our greatest potential. That's the power of death...it forces us to look in the mirror and examine our own lives. Many times it hurts because we don't like what we see.

I'm not trying to sound cold, but I don't know that I feel as much hurt from the loss of Whitney Houston as do others. Perhaps because she's a woman and I'm not(my female friends seem to hurt more), I never connected with her that much. Aside from a boyhood crush, I never paid a lot of attention to her life or music. I know I'm alone in that. But there is something that made me stop and think...looking at the pictures of Bobby Brown. I still remember Bobby Brown from "Every Little Step" and seeing him having aged...put on weight...and even ostracized from his family hit home with me.


Time is passing and we all have to make the most of every moment! That's the lesson to learn and that's why death stings - it reminds us of wasted opportunities. So stop wasting them! That which your hand finds to do, do with all your might! Starting right now! That's the best way to honor both the death and Your God who made you.

Please leave me your comments so I know how to serve you better!! If this was helpful, forward it to a friend. Talk to you soon!

The Power Of Smiling


I'm pretty sure I don't smile enough. It's not cool, you know? It's not that much of a black "thing" either? As a black man, you probably get more accustomed to scowling than any other expression. I know I need to smile more, but then you catch yourself and realize that you're mean mugging again...like usual.

What expression is on your face right now? If you're not smiling, what if changing it would alter the entire course of your day? I caught this article called "The Untapped Power of Smiling" that reminded me of the right perspective. Smiling more can improve your health, help you earn more, improve your relationships and generally help you enjoy life more.

It's a shame I don't smile more. I probably feel self-conscious about my grill or either think I'll look soft. I'm making a commitment to do it and quit being a hypocrite. I tend to favor people who smile. Why not join them? In fact, let's do it together and see what happens as we start a new week!!!

UP

Maksud UP adalah dalam kamus kelas 3 (SMA/SMP).
U dan P..
U adalah U.J.I.A.N.
dan P adalah P.R.A.K.T.E.K.
Menurut gue yeaaaaa, ujian praktek itu lebih menakutkan dari U.A.N.
Gak juga sih, dua-duanya sama-sama mengerikan. Emang yah disetiap akhir itu lebih mengerikan daripada awalnya. Susah emang demi selebar kertas yang bakal menentukan masa depan kita. Gue yang udah kelas tiga harus pintar dan pinter ngatur waktu. Karna gue bukan macem atau model anak yang serius banget belajar tapi gampang banget stress kalau dapet nilai jelek. Mungkin sekolah gue, sekolah yang mengadakan UP paling cepet. Katanya sih biar bisa fokus ke U.A.N.  Gue sih gak keberatan tapi UP nya. we dan ka we dan ka we dan ka.

SENIN : Seni Budaya
 tempat :Ruang 2

Paling malesin OLAHRAGA dan KETRAMPILAN JASA.
Paling ngebosenin TIK dan IPA.
Paling ngeenakin SENI BUDAYA.

Bahasa indonesia itu disuruh praktek drama, seru sih tapi yaitu ribet banget. Kelompok gue aja EMPAT BELAS ORANG dan kita sampe buat kostum khusus. Saking ribetnya sampe kelompok lain aja gue kena ikut ngeribetin dan benar-benar musingin.
Bahasa inggris disuruh masak, gue milih masakan perancis kalau gak salah. Biasa kenanya yang susah,,,,,,,,, Main Course-_- dan kebetulan juga teman satu bangku dan satu kelompok gue itu Main Course juga. Gue masak yang ada dagingnya gitu.
Agama yang paling panjang dan padat jadwalnya apalagi itu abis olahraga. Kebayang kan capeknya kayak gimana
Olahraga juga gak jelas mau ngapain.
sejak kelas 9 gue males banget pelajaran Ketrampilan jasa apalagi prakteknya.
untungnya SENI BUDAYA itu gambar jadi gak terlalu ribet. Hehe

Buat anak kelas 3 yang lagi menjalani UJIAN PRAKTEK sukses yaaaaaa!!!!!!

How to Receive Turnaround in an Impossible Situation

I get letters and prayer requests from people every week who feel beaten and battered by life. They feel like they spend more time losing than winning and like their lives are stuck in some kind of downward spiral that they can't get out of. They feel stuck. Maybe that describes you today. Maybe you feel like you're going nowhere and not sure how to change that.

Maybe you feel like you're in a hole with no way to get out and no one around to offer a ladder so you can climb out? You think you're in an impossible situation. You think your vision will never come to pass...that your financial situation will never turn around...that your child will never get on the right path. You're on the verge of giving up hope.

If any of that describes you, I'm writing to you today. I want to share with you three keys to getting a turnaround in any impossible situation. If that's what you need today, keep reading!


I know I'm not about to reveal to you top secret, whiz bang mysteries. They are reminders. So often we spend our time worrying and dreading our fate instead of understanding that the battle is not over. For you, the battle isn't over even when it's over. You serve a God who can resurrect the dead! Remember that. I'm willing to bet He's rescued you from defeat before. Trust Him to do so again. He can turn around your situation!

Therefore, here are your action items if you're looking for a turnaround:

1. Realize that there are no impossible situations. You serve a God that specializes in the impossible! (Matthew 19:26)
2. Pray. Take it God in real, honest and specific terms. Don't just complain to Him. Ask Him to do something! (Philippians 4:6)
3. Understand that your victory is assured no matter what. Even things that appear to be "bad" in your eyes, are really good because the Lord has not finished his work in you nor in your life. (Romans 8:28)
4. Take positive action. Ask, seek and knock. Faith is not passive. Even while believing the Lord for miracles, you keep asking and keep seeking and keep knocking. You don't know which door He will open for you. (Matthew 7:7)
5. Only speak victory. What you say has the power to change the entire course of your life and the lives of those you influence. Take great care of what you say. (Proverbs 18:21)

It is so critical that you take control of your spirit, your mind, your attitudes and your words when you're facing immense challenges. You must not allow a place for casual conversation and nihilistic attitudes either in your circle or in your own thoughts. Once you get focused on possibilities and have lifted up your concerns to God, let them go and begin to look forward to your breakthrough! It's coming. And even if it doesn't come, it's coming!!

Please leave me your comments so I know how to serve you better!! If this was helpful, forward it to a friend. Talk to you soon! Please remember to subscribe so you don't miss any of the exciting news, updates, events and tools that I'll be sharing soon! Blessings!


Valentine

Katanya orang islam gak boleh ngerayain valentine..
Katanya juga masa hari kasih sayang cuma di valentine..
Katanya juga kalau nerima coklat berarti ngerayain..
Katanya masa ngerayain .......... *tbtblupa* mati..
Katanya..................
Dan katanya......
Gak ada yang bagus yah maknanya. Menurut gue valentine itu jangan dianggap hari khusus banget dan kalau ada yang ngasih coklat atau yang lain yah anggap aja itu hadiah di bulan february. Gue aja dikasih sama junior gue bukan ditanggal 14 tapi ditanggal 15. Hahaha.
Tapi gue gak ngasih apa-apa cuma ngasih coklat ke tirza itu juga cuma 1 sebagai hadiah kecil-kecilan aja bukan valentine. Mungkin karna orang udah nganggep tanggal 14 february itu valentine jadi kalau ada orang yang ngasih hadiah dikiranya ngerayain valentine. Hehe
Jujur ajayang gue pengen ngasih cokkat ke HM tapi dia aja masih diemin gue. Okey ini tentang valentine bukan curhatan gue. Wkwk.
Nanti kapan-kapan gue share deh coklatnya kayak gimana bentuknya kayak gimana, tapi gak sekarang yah. Karna masih di android gue. Hehehe
Di february ini tempatnya abis-abis valentine, gue ganti uname jadi @dinsyaa tptp kayaknya bakalan balik lagi ke uname yang dulu @dindastya. Masih bingung dan ragu. Wkwkwk
Oiya,gue rasa penilain gue tentang cewek itu berubah deh. Dia lebih baik daripada temennya itu. Dia nolongin gue disaat gue udah diambang pingsan. Makasih banget yah buat dia. Gue jadi sayang sama tuh anak,semoga sih penilaian gue tentang dia gak salah.
Kalau udah percaya sama orang susah buat ngecewain dia,gue bakalan jaga hatinya biar dia gak sakit hati. Apalagi gara-gara kelakuan gue,kalau dia baik gue bakal lebih baik dari yang dia kira. Maaf yah buat lo yang udah nolongin gue tapi gue malah nganggep lo jahat, mungkin karna gue belom kenal lo dan gue yakin kalau ada di posisi lo gue bakalan ngelakuin kayak gitu juga. (:
God, help me about what i think now. I hope i no one believed her.

8 Keys to Achieving Higher Performance in Your Purpose: Key #8 - What Are You Afraid Of?

I want you to hear me like never before as you read this blog, my last in this series. I have a question to ask you and I want you to really, really think about your answer.

What are you afraid of anyway?

What are you waiting on to get moving towards your dream and your vision? Are you waiting for permission? Well here it is! I hereby give you permission to step out on faith! I hereby give you permission to dare!! I hereby give you permission to overcome your fears!! Let's look at what Solomon had to say about fear and how you respond to it...

"The wicked flee when no one is pursuing, But the righteous are bold as a lion." ~Proverbs 28:1

"The lion which is mighty among beasts And does not retreat before any..." ~ Proverbs 30:30

Here's what the Word is telling you and I want you to get...YOU are the righteous and are supposed to be AS BOLD AS A LION and, furthermore, can you show me a challenge that makes a lion back down or retreat? NO YOU CAN'T!!! That's the bottom line. There is nothing that should ever make you turn away from pursuing your goal, your vision, your prey. NOTHING!!! (Wow. Why am I screaming so much today?)


I don't know if you're hearing me so let me say it again in a different way using Solomon's words.

"The sluggard says, “There is a lion in the road! A lion is in the open square!” ~Proverbs 26:13

In other words, it's time to shake off your excuses. There is no lion outside ready to eat you just like there is no boogie man in the closet. If anything, your opponents should be afraid to see YOU coming! So here's what I want you to do...something that used to terrify you! Make it a habit to do something that makes you terrified every single day to move towards your goals. You won't even recognize yourself after a while of making facing your fears a new habit. What are you afraid of anyway? That's right. NOTHING!!!

In case you're interested in being able to quickly navigate the entire series, here are the links!

Series Introduction
Key 1: Be Who You Are!
Key 2: Same Approaches = Same Results
Key 3: Change Your Associations
Key 4: The Least Appreciated Key
Key 5: Seek Favor
Key 6: Get Expert Help
Key 7: Open Your Mouth
Key 8: What Are You Afraid Of?

8 Keys to Achieving Higher Performance in Your Purpose: Key #6 - Get Expert Help!


I had a dream last night worth sharing because I think it will be something every person will want to consider, pray about and seek out in their own lives.

In my dream I was working on putting together a saxophone. I don't know why. I don't play the saxophone! For some reason, I wanted it. I worked every day on this thing. I was using a spare bedroom in my neighbor's house as my workshop. I would leave it over there and go home in the evenings - then come back and work on it the next day.

One day, I quit early because it was driving me crazy.

Anyway... the next morning I woke up and went over to work on building my saxophone. Louis Armstrong was sitting there doing it for me!! Yes. That Louis Armstrong. We talked while he worked. It only took a few minutes as he slung everything together and then showed me how to play a few notes. He was amazing. He took so much stress off my back and brought a smile to my face. A big cheese-eating one!



This dream reminded me of the power of EXPERT help! And that's my prayer for myself and for you today! That we would begin to seek out expert help in every area that's difficult for us and where we're struggling to make the progress we want to make. Some things don't have to take as long as they're taking us. We just need a little help from the right people.

Amen?

Confusy

I think the more choices .. I'm getting confused too.

FIRST: B
he is my best friend in class. he is a friend forever. I thought for one year with that I think, he thinks the same with me. Apparently yesterday he just said something. It makes me shock. he expressed his love and he asked me 'would I be his girlfriend?'. I think we are friends forever and I think I do not intend to change it. I love him as a friend. he's a good guy and loyal. I was wrong and reject it but I do not love him as a boyfriend but as a friend. I'm sorry boy (: I'm friends forever for you.

Second:
He was my boyfriend in my room p.m. He's smart and I loved it since the first meeting. And my friend told me he liked me too. He's good, sometimes teach me as well. but he's not quiet, shy man. He wears glasses like me but he's like every time use it. and sometimes i think I was waiting for him to dare to say so to me that he wanted me to be his lover. X)
p.s:  when I write about him, I listened to the radio play the song OK-T2. Yeah god why like this. I was laughing.

Third:
he is my junior. I know he's player and I feel it. he had to pinch my cheeks and hold myhand. attention but he sucks. but I love her.he declared his love makes me happy and he also said things that made me sad. there are things that make us hanging and I hate it. I hate expecting uncertain. but many things that make me have to believe him. and I waited. He said only one month. I hold the promise he. | )

I'm very really confused.

March is the most awaited month. in the month it was all changed of my age and myheart.
We'll see what happens. okey? I'm waiting for it.


Wait me next post :*{}

Be carefull

Gue kasih tau dan gue peringatin aja yaa.
Menurut gue kalau lo pernah punya mantan, gak usah sok-sok gak kenal. Sadar! Dulu lo pernah sayang sama dia. Gak usah sok-sok benci. Lo pernah pacaran sama dia! Pernah jalani hidup lo sama dia. (eaaaaahaha)
Gue sih malu yah,kalau orang abis putus malah kayak gitu. Kesannya kok munafik banget yah. Kayak gak inget dulu tuh kayak gimana. Mungkin kalau lo gak suka sama mantan lo yang itu gak usah diumbar-umbar gitu. Bikin malu lo juga kan? GAK BER-OTAK. Okey, mungkin terlalu kasar,tapi gue terlalu kesel liat orang kayak gitu.
Se-gak-suka-sukanya gue sama mantan gue. Gue gak pernah ngumbar-ngumbar di jejaring sosial. Gak pamer. Nanti kesannya kok gue munafik banget. Dulu sayang-sayangan, sekarang siapaya-siapaya. NGACA DULU LO SAMA DIA GIMANA?. Kalau ada hal yang bikin lo bete sama dia, mening introspeksi dulu yang salah siapa. Kalau yang salah dia, gak ada yang salahnya kok nanya.
Daripada sok tahu kan? Daripada salah paham? Daripada main hina-hinaan?. Gak usah buru-buru ambil keputusan. Lo masih remaja, belum ngerti ngambil keputusan yang gak mikir 2 sisi. Bukan berarti gue bilang lo itu gak dewasa. Nyatanya emang gitu, gue juga gitu kok.
Gue pikir sekarang itu kita masih remaja. Gak wajar aja kalau sampe musuh-musuhan kayak gitu. Jalan kita masih panjang. Gak usah buat dosa kecil yang dimata tuhan itu bisa aja masukin lo ke neraka (eh,lebay amat gua).

Singkatnya:
Mantan tuh bisa jadi bumerang dan bisa juga jadi penolong kita. Bukan berarti kita harus lupain mereka atau harus inget-inget mereka. Kalau kita masih sanggup mengingat, jangan mencoba melupakan. Dan kalau kita memang gak sanggup yah,gak usah dipertahanin. Lepaskan jika kembali itu berarti memang saatnya. Gak ada salahnya kok melepaskan yang sebenarnya susah kita lepaskan. Tuhan melihat segalanya, Tuhan gak akan salah memilihkan apa yang terbaik buat kita dan orang lain.
Jangan pernah berbicara sembarangan,kalau akhirnya kita nyesel sendiri. Tuhan akan mengambulkan apa yang kita minta dengan caranya sendiri. Kita tak akan tahu yang terjadi nanti, tapi gak ada yang ngelarang kita untuk memikir yang nanti-nanti kok. Asal jangan terlalu jauh aja yaa.
So? be carefull on your words or your act. Time will not spin and a good opportunity not to be repeated two times.

See you next post :*{}

8 Keys to Achieving Higher Performance in Your Purpose - Key #5: Seek Favor


Seek favor. Favor can take you in five minutes where hard work alone will take you in five years. Here are five ways to cultivate favor in your life:

1. Ask God for open doors and for an eye for opportunity. You can't see what's right around the bend, but He can. Ask Him to show you things you haven't seen. Ask Him for favor. There's no shame in doing so. They always say "favor isn't fair" and I believe it! Life can be challenging enough. You need every "unfair" advantage you can get! Before you seek favor with men, seek His favor. It means so much more.

2. Share your vision with enthusiasm and boldness. There are people waiting to help you if only they knew what direction you are going. Change the atmosphere around you when you begin to talk. People will rally behind you, go before you and surround you with support. Give them the chance. Even those who can't help you will pray for you. Will you arouse some rivals? Of course! But nothing good grows in the dark. Shout it loud!

3. Seek guidance and ask for help. Learn how to admit you need help and ask for it. If the person you know can't help you, ask if they know someone who can. There's also a saying that goes "Ask for money and you'll get advice, but ask for advice and you'll get money." Ask for help. If you need money, it will come. Never let a lack of money stall you.

4. Be receptive to people who offer you advice and feedback. Become a person who is gracious in receiving feedback from people. Don't be so gruff and don't take it so harshly. Most people want you to do better even if they communicate it poorly at times. Don't make people regret saying things to you because they'll stop trying to help. Nothing would be worse than that.

5. Communicate the progress and changes that you make to those around you. When you get good advice from wise people, show them and tell them that you've listened. Report back to them. Let them know their words weren't wasted on you. When people see you doing your best, they are always moved to help even more. That's favor!

Seek favor. Favor can take you in five minutes where hard work alone will take you in five years. Achieving higher performance isn't always about working harder. Sometimes you'll need advantages the labor alone can't bring you!

Monyet dan Babi

 

     “Gue mau ngomong sama lo.”
     Aku tertegun sejenak. Bukan hanya karena kalimatnya yang tak terduga itu, tapi juga yang menggenggam lenganku erat. Jantungku berdebar dua kali lebih cepat. “Emang apaan?” ujarku lalu duduk kembali di kursiku. karena tangannya
     Ia menghela nafas.
     “Babiii, cepetan! Gue pengen ke kantin… Laper, nih!” seruku tak sabar.
     “Gue suka sama lo.”
     “Ha? Gue? Yang bener aja!” ujarku sekenanya. Aku tak bisa memikirkan kalimat lain untuk kukatakan dalam keadaan seterkejut itu. Ia… Menyukaiku? Mustahil. Ini pasti mimpi. “Lucu lo!”
     “Siapa yang mau ngelucu!” serunya tak sabar. “Gue serius, Nyet! Gue gak main-main. Gue suka sama lo!”
     Aku memaksakan tawa kecil. “Nggak. Lu bohong. Nggak mungkin lo suka sama gue.”
     “Apanya yang nggak mungkin?! Anything possible, ‘kan lo yang selalu bilang kayak gitu ke gue?! Segalanya mungkin, tinggal bagaimana kita mencoba mewujudkannya!” ujarnya.
     “Itu…” Aku kehabisan kata-kata. “Itu…”
     Aku menatap dalam-dalam matanya. Apa ini mimpi? Ataukah ia hanya berusaha menggodaku, ingin membohongiku? Tapi aku tak bisa melihat apapun di matanya kecuali pantulan wajahku. “Tapi… Gak mungkin… Gak mungkin, Bi! Kenapa bisa?”
     “Awalnya juga gue nggak ngerti, kenapa gue bisa suka sama cewek kayak lo! Cewek nggak karuan yang nggak ada manis-manisnya. Tapi rasa itu udah meracuni otak gue, kalo udah kayak gitu, gue bisa apa? Kenyataan yang maksa gue suka sama lo.” ucapnya lirih.
     Aku membisu. Lidahku kelu, ditambah lagi aku tak bisa memikirkan sepatah katapun untuk diucapkan. Bayangkan! Cowok yang kusukai selama setengah tahun ini berkata padaku bahwa ia mempunyai perasaan yang sama terhadapku! Ini… Aku tak percaya… Aku ingin menangis rasanya. Menangis saking bahagianya… Kecuali ini hanya mimpi. Mungkin aku sedang tertidur di suatu tempat.
     “Jadi, gimana?” tanyanya. Ia memandangiku selama sepersekian detik. “Apa… Apa jawabannya… Apa jawaban lo?”
    “A… Gue…! Ah, lo itu… terlalu bertolak belakang sama gue! Lo sendiri yang bilang gue gak bisa diem kayak monyet. Sama sekali bukan orang yang pantes buat gue… Iya, ‘kan? Makanya…–”
    Aku tak sanggup melanjutkan kata-kataku, karena aku telah berada di dalam dekapan hangatnya. Aku bisa mendengar detak jantungnya… Bisa merasakan hembusan nafasnya… Bahkan kehangatan yang sekarang aku rasakan jauh lebih hangat daripada dekapan ibuku sendiri. Apa ini? Mimpi ini tak kunjung usai!
     “To the point. Gue nggak peduli kekurangan lo, latar belakang lo, apapun! Kenapa harus lo ribet-ribetin begitu sih…? Kita kan sama-sama manusia, sama-sama makan nasi! Cara pandang lo yang bikin kita beda! Yang harus lo tau, kita semua sama. Gak ada yang sempurna.” ujarnya lembut.
     Tangisku pecah. Aku tak kuasa mendengar kata-katanya yang terdengar begitu manis di telingaku. Aku bahagia, karena penantianku telah usai. Aku bahagia, karena pada akhirnya aku dapat menyampaikan perasaanku terhadapnya tanpa harus memendam rasa ini…
     Kuhela nafas dalam-dalam, lalu aku berbisik padanya, “Keajaiban adalah ketika seseorang yang lo suka juga suka sama lo. Dan sekarang gue lagi ngalamin keajaiban itu… sama lo, Bi.”

“Ketika kita mencintai dengan sungguh-sungguh tapi tidak tersampaikan, itulah yang membuat sakit. Itulah yang menimbulkan luka.
Dalam menyatakan perasaan, tidak ada kata cepat ataupun lambat. Yang diperlukan hanya keberanian kita.”

I Think About Breakup

Udah lama yah gue gak ngepost kata-kata(': . Dan ternyata gue gak bisa kalau gak ngepost.Hehehe. Walaupun gue lagi ditengah-tengah TO (TRY OUT) kayak gini, gue gak mau blog gue terbengkalai. So?
Akhir-akhir ini gue lihat temen-temen gue yang udah pacaran 16bulan atau 15bulan putus. Rasanya tuh,sayang banget tapi yah mau gimana lagi suatu saat nanti mereka juga putus cuma belum saatnya aja. Dan pas saatnya pun mau itu pas 12bulan 20bulan ataupun 2minggu sekalipun tetep aja sakit. Dan mungkin kalau udah kayak gitu "kenapa gak dari awal aja gue putus sama dia?" kadang-kadang bakalan terucap. Dan gue yang cuma 2minggu kadang-kadang bersyukur menciptakan jawaban:
Someone : din,kenapa putus?
Gue : yah,mau gimana lagi.
Someone: kenapa sih emang?
Gue : *alesan* . Lebih baik sekarang kan daripada nanti? (: {senyum sih padahal dalam hatinya banjirrrrrr}
Kadang-kadang kita mikir kita gak mau putus sama pacar kita. Maunya setia aja tapi emang bisa, kalau akhirnya kita gak jodoh sama dia? percuma. Kita gak bakalan bisa ngubah takdir. Pacaran itu adalah awal sebuah jalan yang rusak yang seharusnya kita perbaikin bareng. Kadang kita kerja sendiri, kadang kita yang males, bahkan bisa aja kita salah dan harus ngerusakin jalan itu lagi. Dan kalau kita masih ingin kita bakalan memperbaikinya lagi atau cari jalan lain yang harus kita perbaiki.
Pacaran itu biasanya mulus udah kayak jalan tol tapi kita gak mungkin selalu di jalan tol kan? bisa aja keluar dari jalan tol jalannya berbatuan atau bahkan kita gak bisa jalan sama sekali.

Mean:
Pacaran itu kadang bahagia, bahagia banget. Kadang saking percaya nya kita gak lihat yang lain atau bahkan saking cintanya sama dia, kita gak peduli apa yang membahayakan hubungan kita. Gue malah punya hal yang aneh yang gue pikir itu hanya dibuat-buat biar kelihatan wajar "kalau gue belum nangis gara-gara dia itu berarti gue gak sayang sama dia" . Dan sampai sekarang gue menganggap kalau gue nangis gara-gara cowok itu wajar.
Dan sejak kelas 3, gue merasa sikap gue tentang pacaran itu berbeda. Gue udah gak bisa main-main resikonya kalau gue sakit hati trus gue nangis. Gue malah jadi gak bisa belajar dan itu amat sangat menganggu. Tapi gue seneng, gue bisa membuktikan walau gue putus sama dia. Gue bisa masuk RUANG 2. Awalnya gue kira, gue bakalan jelek karna gue galau kan. Eh,taunya gue bisa tuh.
Gue bisa nunjukkin ke dia dan orang-orang yang berharap gue putus sama dia. Kalau walaupun gue putus sama dia, itu gak berpengaruh buat gue dan gue bisa menjadi lebih baik dari yang gue kira. Tapi gue gak nyesel pernah pacaran sama dia.
Gue sayang dia,bahkan sampe sekarang gue sayang dia. Dan semua nya itu berbeda pas gue sama dia. Hei,gue bilang gue sayang sama dia tapi bukan berarti gue masih ngarepin dia okey. Gue cuma gak mau nyamain dia sama yang lain walaupun gue punya pengganti dia.
Dan keluar dari pembicaraan. Gue galau gara-gara mhlmy , gue masih berusaha gak inget dia dengan deket sama cowok lain dan tentu aja ngeblog membantu gue.
Thanks for all to all. See you next life or good bye.

Salam bloyaanggg :*

8 Keys to Achieving Higher Performance in Your Purpose: Key #4 (The Least Appreciated Key)


I call this the master key within the entire series!

There is NO SUBSTITUTE FOR DILIGENCE!!! Read what Solomon, the wisest man who's ever lived, had to say about diligence. It's an interesting word. Some people think "diligence" is discipline, but it isn't. Discipline is good, but nothing unlocks your potential like DILIGENCE.

Some people think hard work is diligence. It isn't. Hard work is good, but only begins to scratch the surface.

What is diligence then? Diligence is all of those concepts and more. Embedded in the word is the thought of rising early in the morning and DOING WHATEVER it takes to accomplish your goal. It's like mining for gold...or mining for your goal.

A successful miner digs and digs and digs. He invests in better tools so he can dig more efficiently. He rises early in the morning and stays late. He knows the gold will be taken by others if he isn't in the field. He stays late after others have gone home because there's a nugget they're going to miss...but he isn't going to miss it!


It reminds of when I was young and my folks would take us out to the Crater of Diamonds State Park in Arkansas.


You would work all day in the hopes of finding something precious. When you did, everything felt worth it! Many people have found great treasures out there in those fields, but only the ones who worked for it.


(The diamond pictured about was found at Crater of Diamonds. Not by me, but still...)

I didn't realize I was learning a word-picture for this concept even as a child, but I'm glad I did. Now, whenever I'm lagging in my effort, I think about mining. I think about digging and digging for hidden treasure. Because that's diligence. And Solomon says it's the key to riches, wealth and a life that's truly prosperous!
