7 Kisah Cinta

  • Cinta Pertama
Cinta pertama umunya merupakan langkah awal untuk memisahkan diri dari orang tua dan menjadi diri sendiri. Dalam situasi apapun, cinta pertama kita adalah objek transisi, seseorang yang cocok dengan kebutuhan khusus kita saat itu. Cinta pertama itu memang indah dan tak bisa dilupakan, tetapi tidak jarang juga, cinta pertama tetap berkembang ke arah yang sama.
  • Cinta Sang Penyelamat

Kisah cinta ini sangat menyenangkan jika si wanita memilih pasangan yang pantas menerima segala usahanya dan jiwa si wanita tidak memerlukan si pria untuk menjadi penyelamatnya. Kalau selama ini kita rela berkorban dan memberikan apapun untuk si dia yang sedang kesusahan tanpa rasa pamrih, bukan tidak mungkin, aksi penyelamatan itu kita lakukan dengan harapan kita bakal mendapatkan balasan kasih sayang dari si dia. Dengan kata lain menolong si dia berarti menolong diri kita sendiri. Kisah penyelamatan bisa juga berubah menjadi bumerang yang dapat menghancurkan diri kita sendiri. Contohnya bila kita selalu pasrah menghadapi si dia yang ringan tangan. Kita takut kalau kita bakal melukaisi dia kalau kita meninggkannya, sementara kalau dibiarkan, kondisi malah bisa menghancurkan diri kita sendiri.
  • Cinta Pembimbing

Kebanyakan diri kita (wanita) ingin mendapatkan pasangan yang bisa memberi pengetahuan praktis tentang segalanya. Pasangan yang juga bisa jadi guru seseorang yang kita kagumi dan yang dapat menolong kita mengembangkan bakat potensi kita sendiri. Syukur-syukur kalau kita bisa menemukan orang yang tepat seperti yang kita harapkan. Jika tidak, harapkan, yang terlalu besar bisa kita jadi terlalu banyak menuntut. Hasilnya? Hubungan cinta malah berantakan?
  •  Cinta Segitiga

Tidak jarang wanita cenderung tertarik dengan pria yang sudah terikat, atau sebaliknya wanita yang gemar berpetualang cinta setelah terikat. Kenyataannya, kata terikat menimbulkan tantangan dan godaan yang tidak bisa dilepas, ditepis. Apalagi bila hubungan cinta yang dimiliki tidak mulus-mulus. Memang sih, tidak ada salahnya untuk sekali-sekali berpikir bahwa kita juga berhak untuk mendapatkan kebahagiaan. Terperangkap antara keinginan dan kenyataan memang sulit, tapi daripada mencari masalah baru, mengapa tidak menyelesaikan masalah yang lama dulu?
  •  Cinta Minus Usaha

Tidak selamanya kita bisa mendapatkan apa yang kita inginkan tanpa usaha. Banyak orang yang malas berusaha dalam cinta. Mereka berpikir bahwa cinta akan datang tanpa dicari. 
"Kalau memang jodoh, nanti juga ketemu, kok." 
Tapi bagaimana kita bisa live happily ever after dengannya kalau kita jual mahal untuk tidak mau memulai menelpon duluan? Cinta sejati tidak selamanya datang membawa kebahagiaan begitu juga yang menghampiri kita pada kenyataan-nya kesempatan kita untuk mencintai seseorang bisa lenyap bila kita tidak berani mengambil langkah pasti.
  • Cinta Berbeda Status
Banyak wanita yang mendambakan pria dengan status sosial yang lebih tinggi. Tapi perbedaan status sosial yang terlalu 'jomplang' kadang kala bisa bikin salah satu pihak merana, bila ikatan emosional di antara keduanya kurang kuat. Lingkungan juga memberikan pengaruh yang cukup besar pada kisah cinta model Cinderella bila kita sering diperlakukan tidak adil dan merasa ini dengan kehidupan mereka yang status soalnya lebih tinggi, bukan diri dengan merebut cinta seseorang yang berasal dari golongan tersebut.
  •  Cinta Obsesif
Seseorang bisa terobsesi dengan cinta baginya dengan memiliki orang dicintainya, dia akan mendapatkan apa yang selama ini dia dambakan. Sayangnya, tidak selamanya segala sesuatu berjalan mulus. Karena merasa hidupnya tergantung pada hubungannya dengan orang yang dicintainya,dia menolak kenyataannya bahwa cintanya bertepuk sebelah tangan Dia yakin akan tiba saatnya dia mendapatkan kembali cinta itu. Kalau kita mengalami model cinta seperti ini, cobalah menghadapi kenyataan dengan melakukan hal-hal yang bisa membuat kita menghargai diri sendiri, bertemu orang-orang baru yang bisa membuka pikiran kita, serta menambah wawasan dengan hal diluar masalah kita.


CINTA TAK SELAMANYA INDAH

[Summary Film] 3 Idiots

Hidup adalah sebuah perlombaan, jika Anda tidak cukup cepat, maka Anda akan diinjak-injak. Begini lah kalimat yang di ucapkan dari film 3 idiot, Saya sangat terkesan dengan film ini karena film ini mengajarkan tentang bagaimana kita bisa memiliki sistem pendidikan yang benar dimana kita juga bisa memiliki banyak unsur edukasi. Pemikiran seperti tokoh dalam film 3 idiot yaitu Rancho, dia berpikir agar bisa memperbaiki SDM (Sumber Daya Manusia) dari suatu negara dan juga sistem pendidikan yang ada di negara kita. Dia berkata 
"Jangan Berhenti Untuk Belajar." 
Tanpa belajar kita tidak akan bisa maju dalam menggapai kesukessan kita. Universitas adalah dasar kita menimbah ilmu yang lebih luas dan lebih mendalam bukan mengajarkan hal-hal yang tidak baik sehingga itu membuat kita menjadi tertekan. Tidak mudah untuk menggapai sebuah kesuksesan tetapi jika kita mau berusaha kita pasti bisa. Seperti kalimat yang saya dapatkan setelah menonton film 3 idiot adalah 
"Menghafal memang menghemat 4 tahun masa kuliah kita, tapi justru akan menghancurkan 40 tahun masa kerja kita nantinya."
Pahamilah secara lebih dekat, karena otak manusia bukanlah mesin dan ilmu bukanlah manuscript. Membangun sebuah bisnis itu mudah saja ketika kita membangun itu berdasarkan apa yang telah menjadi passion/ hobby kita dan jika kita tidak mau dianggap bodoh atau direndahkan orang lain maka kita harus mampu menunjukan kalau kita juga bisa lebih dari mereka. Belajar dan berusaha itu juga merupakan kunci kesuksesan, meskipun terlihat idot namun jika kita bisa menciptakan suatu karya yang penuh inovasi maka orang yang melihat tidak akan menganggap rendah lagi.

Difficult to love my father

There is no one moment in my memory that shows that my father has an important role in my life.
In times of my growth, and certainly not by the time I became a rebellious teenager. My father was always busy with his work, struggling to make a living to support our families. At that moment, I could not understand why he was too busy to accompany me. I respect him, but I didn't love her.

Of course that doesn't mean I always fight with my father. Actually, there are also unpleasant times we spent together, for example, when our family out to dinner or get together with relatives when there is a party celebration. However, behind all that stored distaste, that comes out every time we quarreled. We argue about the value of my test bad, about my inability to do the simplest thing he asked about how dad doesn't understand me, and about the painful words. As a result, our relationship became more distant.

When my father reached the age of 50 years, we found that he was suffering from advanced cancer.
For two years, my father tried all kinds of treatments, both Western and Eastern medicine, but in vain. My father finally gave up, but in the condition it was I wasn't give a damn. I continue to harbor bitterness in our hearts and have virtually no sympathy for him. A few months after deciding not to undergo any treatment, my father died.  I didn't cry at all during the time of keeping the his remains and the funeral takes place.

A week after the funeral, I took the bus and saw the passengers lively conversation with someone sitting next to. As he took a seat, I remembered my father who used to sit next to me, laughing, he joked, his words, his smile, and the times that I miss him at dinner. Suddenly felt my cheeks warm and wet. By the time I climbed on the bus a conversation with some people in the bus brought me goodness and sacrifice that the father has given me in the days she was still alive. I hurriedly got off the bus, sitting on the edge of the road, and for the first time after my father died, I burst into tears.
I began to regret the mistakes I've done, I cry over my father but it was useless, I know it is too late, but at the time I recall my heart would melt because given that he will never come back again.


That night, I told my mother about what happened in the way home. Mother then tells how the ropes are sometimes ridiculous, my father had attempted such a way as to make up for lost time when I was a teenager. He did his best to get involved with things that interest me, but I even consider going to interfere in my business and it makes me even to maintain bitterness against what my father did to me. Really I would regret all of this I can not even see what is really the love of a father for his son.

To this day, the memory of my father is still attached at the back of my mind, including utterances that first I did not understand or I consider "junk". I also now realize how my anger has become a barrier to relationships with people who have been seeking the best for me. I was too imperious to respond to it, until I, too, failed to apply the advice of the apostle Paul in Ephesians 4:26 Where the contents of Ephesians 4:26 is "If you are angry, don't sin: do not let your anger sunset"

Maybe I will never again be able to see my father, because until the end of his life he didn't believe in Christ. However, if one day God gave me a chance to see it again, I'll tell him what I could never say during his life: "I love you, Dad."

Today Quotes



Indonesia Version : Mulailah Memberi

If nobody compassion in your difficulties.
Or, no one wants to celebrate your success.
Or nobody is willing to listen, look, pay attention to anything on yourself.
Don't enter into the heart.
Human beings are always preoccupied with his own affairs.
Humans mostly prioritize its own interests.
You don't need to enter it into the heart.
Because only be stifling and burdening your step.
Lighten your life by giving to others.
The more you give the more you take life easy.

Stand in front of the window.
Look out.
Ask yourself, what can you give to this world.
There must be a strong reason why you are present here.
Not to whine or ask your flattering world.
Your existence is not for vanity.
Even a worm was turned to loosen the soil.
And, a stone compacted to withstand the mountain.
How great you with all the strength that is not owned by anyone to change the world.
It is only realized if you want to give it.

[Story Article] Family like this

An offhand remark that comes out of the mouth of a husband "The biggest mistake in life is to marry you!" very often I hear my parents were saying that sentence since I was in kindergarten. Quarrel even hit each of them often occur right in front of my eyes and my brothers. Almost every day we have to be a mouthpiece or in the sense of channeling messages when they need to communicate with each other.When I was stepping twelve years, my parents finally decided to split up and out of the house.

"Don't heeded. that's their business." That is the thinking in the face of my childhood my parents have to 'divorce' house. However, along with increasing age, I began to realize, this becomes a bigger problem than what I think. At first I tried to care about this, but it is not possible for me not to care. Because I was in this matter! I was getting frustrated. "Family" became a topic that I always avoid in conversations with my friends. I tried to remove the word in my mind. One day I was invited to go by my friend's family and we were off to ride along. I listened to them talking and joking as usual, and then suddenly a warm feeling enveloped my heart. Unwittingly I silently crying and somehow I also feel happy, sad, and concerned with myself. And then I said to myself, "Oh, here's a name like family..." I was trying to look back at my own family conditions, there I was very disappointed. I'm angry and even I hate everyone in my family, I'm not trying to hide my feelings were. Because so upset, I was unwittingly also have issued all what the mind and my emotions to my friends so that they had also started away from me and consider me as being very annoying. Seeing that I was tired of living with my family, but I also can not go anywhere. It seemed a long time I could be crazy!


After three years my parents split up, I started not comfortable staying at home. I used to go to school is definitely on a motorcycle but now I started to go home walk sightseeing on the grounds that no sooner arrived home. The only reason I came home was to sleep at night. Until one day, a friend invited me to go to church together. At first I refused but my friend never cease to persuade and encourage me to want to go to church just once. He even said today is a special day and I guarantee you certainly will not return in vain. Finally I also welcome the invitation but with a heart that was not ready and is still in disarray. I also had time to think, if I go then this would be a good reason for not being at home. Not long afterwards I heard that the church will hold a camp for three days. Well, three days is not at home! I said. Without thinking, I immediately told my friend to register myself as a participant of the camp.

It turns out for three days when I followed the camp, it really changed my life long a life that will never be the same again and that's where I know God who saved me. Through this camp I really changed I began to realize my sins and even at the same time I also found that forgiving love which God has given me. I feel very grateful. However, it does not mean life can be completely free of problems. Because there is no perfect human. After the camp I went back to the house and still I still have to face the 'war' is the same every day. It does not make me be a child who seems sweet, kind, and obedient. I also continued to wrestle with the characters that have been formed over a dozen years in me especially since I'm still not able to receive state family.

Those days is not easy, but God patiently held my hand when I often rebelled against Him. Until one day, I sit and reflect on the life and family are still in a state of disarray. That is where I began to realize that such a situation is not only experienced by the family alone. As I began to reflect on these things I will also be able to conclude that, all the family can not be separated from the problem is not only that but my friends and neighbors and even people who are religious or not religious, God's servants who serve full-time or not all of them for sure will not be separated from the problem. So certainly I am not the only person who only wrestled with the problem that I face but a lot of people around me who also face the 'war' may be similar and not infrequently there are up to their situation worse than me. What I experienced during this indeed has demonstrated the reality of the world that have been in sin.

I also realized, I did not choose to be born in a family where, God himself who picked out for me.
So does that mean he does not love me? He gave Jesus His only begotten Son, he gave up his life to save my soul, how could he not love me? He is a good Father and He would have a purpose to put me, his daughter here even though the goal was not entirely understand. The best thing I can do for myself is to accept completely the situation for myself and the family that God has prepared for me. Because the family is the altar of God.



The first step I would do is I'm trying to make peace with myself and tried to open my eyes. This year not much has changed from the family after ten this year but for me I had to see clearly the changes in myself. God has used the conditions to form my family, and I also learned to control my emotions in situations that can lead to anger. I learned to forgive even though there's no guarantee I will not be hurt again. I learned to love those who think the unlovely. God does not change my life to change my situation. He was let me experience everything that happens in the family is also what it means to despair that I may see him as the only hope in my life. He was too good to plan the crime and too wise to do wrong. In the wound, He provides healing, in tears, he provides comfort. (2 Corinth 1:3-4)
In all things, He has a purpose (romans 8:28-29). In all things, He gives strength (Philippians 4:13).
