Just try to Live & Love..

Selasa, 06 Mei 2014


They are two markedly different kind of person.

The man is highly expressive in nature and he does so with a dramatic and natural flair that gives him a confidence and nobility that is apparent to all who is around him. This man craves all the best that life can afford him.

The woman is simply gracious, warm and affectionate with sprinkle of compassion and intelligence as well. She knows how the human heart loves and would never think of separating herself from such a beautiful quality. She can be naive and unrealistic about the world and other people, but it is simply because she is innocent and assumes the best of her surroundings. Love relationship brings out the best of her as she always fits to the mold of her lover and has the highest respect for her man. She is not much on expressing herself but she always gives it her best shot.

Both of them should understand the others’ level of dedication as well as trying to figure out their own.

This man likes to set the ways that the relationship goes. His authority shows through and the rules of the game are laid down. As confident and aggressive as he is, deep down him, he is still worried that his woman may take over, or try to. If this does not work for the woman, she may give up with the relationship. The only thing after this point that upsets him more than losing her is the fact that she didn’t take his advice on the matters at hand before going..

As with the time their trust and faith increases, they share one of the most compatible relationship. They both give each other the freedom and love; they crave for and promise to return to each other’s arms. While she gives the lessons of humbleness to him, he teaches her to be more focused and realistic. There are plenty of skies they glide over and plenty oceans they swim through to make their love stronger and reliable. She respects him and makes him feel bolder and more masculine while the shower of love and pamper given by him, makes her turn into a beautiful rose from a mere little bud. There is always an unspoken mystery in their love which God leaves to them to solve and cherish till eternity.
The initial attraction between them is strong and their sexual attraction is even stronger. Everything is beautiful and magical between them.....or it was.

And it reminds me of my all time favorite quote by Plato:
"Be kind..for everyone you meet is fighting a hard battle.."
If only we can look at ourselves from other people's point of view,
I honestly think we would be a better person..


"If the sight of the blue skies fills you with joy, if a blade of grass springing up in the fields has power to move you, if the simple things of nature have a message that you understand,
Rejoice. For your soul is alive.."

Always remember to have a happy life..in your own way :)

We live in a world where achievement, job, status, reputation and money are the indicators of how successful we are. Everyone starts comparing each other. Why? Because they want to know who is better. Why? Because they want to be the better one. The question they ask is always "Who is richer?" or "Who did better?" or "Who has higher status?"


Well, we don't need to play by the rule of this world. The truth is, the most interesting people are those who can be the happiest, not the richest, or even the smartest. The happiest people don't need to ask "Who is happier?". Only insecured people always compare. They need acceptance from other to make sure they fulfill the expectation of the world.
Happy people, the true happy people, know how to enjoy every simple things in life no matter what people say, no matter what the world sees them. They don't need confirmation from others to make them officially happy. When they are happy, they know.

It's time to say goodbye, I guess.

So.....it's been a year.
I still clearly remember how it used to be.
That evening, my life seemed to finally found its destiny when it comes to heart-matter.
Under the Saturday rain, gentle touch.
And for the first time in my life,
I can't be more sure that I did feel my soul has finally awaken and it changes everything.
The moment I really and literally listened to my own yet turns out,
a year later which is now, it has become a very remarkable lesson, an unforgettable one.
Those times where I felt like dying but in the meantime, I also felt so alive.
Just all because I didn't realize something at the first place..that's heading me to who I am now.
And I can't do anything but to be grateful..
Today, since it ends, and I know everything has changed,
I command myself to close that story, take the lesson and moving up.
Hoping for a better me..



Sincerely, Me, who wants to thank you. :)

"If I am to be fallen into love, I will. And if as a result I will appear to be stupid, disillusioned, and poor of judgement, I will. And I would be damned if I cared what other people think. For I would rather be thought of as all of these things, than not love. If in loving, I become the naked woman on the horse, I will ride that horse with my head held high.
This is my spirit. I'm unbreakable."

Life of Pi (movie)



Plot :
A Canadian novelist named Yann Martel meets an Indian man, Pi Patel, with some knowledge from Pi's late father's friend, known to Pi as "Mamaji", for a good book. Pi tells the novelist his life story.
In a flashback, Pi's father named him Piscine Molitor after a swimming pool in France. By the time he reached secondary school, he changed his name to "Pi" (the Greek letter, π) because he was tired of being called "Pissing Patel" (due to the pronunciation of his name). Pi's family owned a zoo, and Pi took great interest in the animals, especially a Bengal tiger named Richard Parker. When Pi tries feeding the tiger, his father runs in and angrily tells him that the tiger is dangerous, and forces Pi to witness the tiger killing a goat to prove his point. Pi is raised Hindu and vegetarian, but at 12 years old, he is introduced to Christianity and then Islam, and decides to follow all three religions as he "just wants to love God". His mother supports his desire to grow, but his father, a rationalist, tries to convert him to his own way of thinking.
When Pi is 16, his father decides to move the family to Canada, where he intends to settle and sell the zoo animals. Pi's family books passage on a Japanese freighter named Tsimtsum. During a storm, the ship founders while Pi is on deck. He tries to find his family, but a member of the crew throws him into a lifeboat. As the ship falls into the sea, a freed zebra lands on the boat with him. Pi watches helplessly as the ship sinks, killing his family. After the storm, Pi finds himself in the lifeboat with the injured zebra, and is joined by an orangutan. A spotted hyena emerges from a tarp covering half of the boat and snaps at Pi, forcing him to retreat to the top of the tarp while it kills the zebra and orangutan. Later, Richard Parker emerges from under the tarp, killing the hyena.
Pi retrieves biscuits, water rations and a hand axe and builds a small raft to stay at a safe distance from Richard Parker. Pi begins fishing and is able to feed Richard Parker. He also collects rain water for them to drink. When the tiger jumps off to hunt fish, Pi considers letting it drown but ultimately helps it climb back into the boat. During a night-time encounter with a breaching humpback whale Pi loses much of his supplies, forcing him to eat fish for the first time in his life. Pi trains Richard Parker to accept him in the boat and realises that caring for the tiger is keeping him alive.
Weeks later they reach a floating island of edible plants, supporting a mangrove jungle, fresh water pools, and a large population of meerkats. Pi and Richard Parker eat and drink freely and regain strength. At night, the island transforms into a hostile environment: Richard Parker retreats to the lifeboat and the meerkats sleep in the trees while the fresh water pools turn acidic and digest the dead fish in the pools. Pi discovers that the island itself is carnivorous after finding a human tooth embedded in a flower. The next day, Pi and Richard Parker leave the island.
The lifeboat reaches the coast of Mexico. Pi is crushed that Richard Parker does not acknowledge him before disappearing into the jungle. Pi is rescued and brought to a hospital. Insurance agents for the freighter interview him, but do not believe his story and ask what "really" happened. Remembering an incident aboard the ship when the ship's cook insulted his family, he makes up a less fantastic account of sharing the lifeboat with his mother, a Buddhist sailor with a broken leg, and the cook. According to this story, the cook killed the sailor in order to eat him and use him as bait. In a later struggle, Pi's mother pushed her son to safety on a smaller raft before the cook stabbed her and threw her overboard. Pi later returned, took the knife and killed the cook.
Next, Yann notes the parallels between the two stories: the orangutan was Pi's mother, the zebra was the sailor, the hyena was the cook, and Richard Parker was Pi. Pi asks which story the writer prefers, and the writer chooses "the one with the tiger" because it is "the better story", to which Pi responds, "Thank you. And so it goes with God". Glancing at a copy of the insurance report, Yann sees that the agents wrote that Pi survived 227 days at sea with an adult Bengal tiger, meaning they had also chosen the more fantastic story to be the one recorded as the real story.


So, tonight I watched this movie for the second time. I remember watched this on cinema all by myself last year, and yes, I teared up. Like a lot. But I don't clearly remember how it felt..this time, I feel too emotional..and get so much deeper meaning that I can't see before.
Is this because many things have happened to me in this past year therefore I even have a different perspective over a movie?
Well, It's just sooo my kind of movie..where it talks about; belief, fate, God's shape, universe, human even animal soul, life lesson, and my all time favorite animal. I found myself astonished..by that I mean..what in the world people made a film that great and I didn't realize at the first place!
All those beautiful scenes, meaningful lines, stupendous and amazing thoughts, all packed in one and be a masterpiece for someone like me.
Anyway, I am actually writing this post right after I just got done watching the movie and it makes me can't arrange my word neatly. :)
Over all I just want to tell you guys that "Life of Pi" is a very recommended movie, if you're looking for a movie with a deep level of thinking and sparkling view , I could say it is one of the best, so far. :)





Memorable Quotes:

"Why would a God do that? Why would He send his own Son to suffer for the sins of ordinary people? | Because He loves us. God made himself approachable to us — human — so we could understand Him. We can't understand God in all His perfection. But we can understand God's Son, and his suffering, as we would a brother's. | That made no sense! Sacrificing the innocent to atone for the sins of the guilty. What kind of love is that? But this Son… I couldn't get Him out of my head."

"Thank you Vishnu, for introducing me to Christ. — I came to faith through Hinduism, and I found God's love through Christ. But God wasn't finished with me yet. God works in mysterious ways, and so it was he introduced himself again. This time by the name of Allah. — Allāhu Akbar. My Arabic was never very good, but the sound and feel of the words brought me closer to God. In performing salah, the ground I touched became holy ground, and I found a feeling of serenity and brotherhood."
"And how can he find his way if he does not choose a path? Listen, instead of leaping from one religion to the next, why not start with reason? In a few hundred years, science has taken us farther in understanding the universe than religion has in 10,000. | Science can teach us more about what is out there, but not what is in here(heart). |  I do not expect us to all agree about everything, but I would much rather have you believe in something I don't agree with than to accept everything blindly. And that begins with thinking rationally."
"Faith is a house with many rooms. | But no room for doubt? | Oh plenty, on every floor. Doubt is useful, it keeps faith a living thing. After all, you cannot know the strength of your faith until it is tested."

"Words are all I have left to hang on to. Everything's all mixed up, fragmented, can't tell daydreams, nightdreams from reality anymore."

"No one has seen that island since, and you'd never read about those trees in any book. And yet, if I hadn't found those shores I would have died, if I hadn't discovered that tooth I would have been lost alone forever. Even when God seemed to have abandoned me, he was watching. Even when He seemed indifferent to my suffering, He was watching and when I was beyond all hope of saving... He gave me rest and gave me a sign to continue my journey..."

"I wept like a child. Not because I was overwhelmed at having survived, although I was. I was weeping because Richard Parker left me so unceremoniously. It broke my heart. You know my father was right: Richard Parker never saw me as his friend. After all we had been through he didn't even look back. But I have to believe there was more in his eyes than my own reflection staring back at me. I know it, I felt it. Even if I can't prove it. You know, I left so much behind: my family, the zoo, India, Anandi. I suppose in the end, the whole of life becomes an act of letting go. But what always hurts the most is not taking a moment to say goodbye. I was never able to thank my father for all I learned from him. To tell him, without his lessons I would never have survived. I know Richard Parker's a tiger but I wish I had said, "It's over. We survived. Thank you for saving my life. I love you, Richard Parker. You'll always be with me. May God be with you." 
"I suppose in the end, the whole of life becomes an act of letting go, but what always hurts the most is not taking a moment to say goodbye."








In the end..this movie makes me feel like..
I need to find my own journey..
to really understand the world..
to literally talk to universe..
and see my God..

A Wonderful Chance, and Million Lesson :)

I have this short story..

So, this morning I was volunteering for a children coloring competition. There were so many kids came with their parents, bought a pallet of expensive crayons, mini table, and dressed cute.
After about an hour it passed, I realized that there's a girl staring to snacks, souvenirs and presents I prepared for the participants..wearing filthy clothes, looked tired and yearn.
So I asked her, "what are you doing here?"
She answered, "can you give me one of these?"
And then I realized she's a beggar..
My friends whispered, "no, she can't. She's not joining the competition", well cause the rule is we can only give those to anyparticipant kid.
So I told her, "why don't you join the competition? So we can give you this."
My friends said, "she doesn't even have any crayon"
And I tell her, "I would buy you one.."
Then I gave her this coloring pencils, she seemed excited and started to coloring her draw. At the rear seat, without table, without parents, but she did it passionately..
Suddenly, there were a boy and a toddler approached her, turns out they are this girl's brother and sister. She told 'em she's joining the competition so she can give themselves some prizes. Her bro and lil sist seemed also excited to hear that, so they just sit there behind this girl, wait patiently and supported their sister.
Just for a small souvenir.....it broke my heart.
After she finished, I told her, "don't forget to write down your name, dear"
She replied, "okay. Kak, do you know, I learned to write at home..I don't go to school"
it made me really sad, and I said, "yeah, I know..and you are the smart kid..anyway, where's ur mom?"
She answered, "I don't know..probably at some traffic light, looking for money"
..and I was like..almost tear up.
The reality that she takes care of herself alone kills some part of me.
And unpredictably, she returned the coloring pencils I gave her, safe and sound.
Then I gave her the souvenir and snacks as I promised. This girl, her bro and lil sist seemed happy.
I looked at her draw, not as good as the other kids, but in my eyes..you are the winner, girl.
After she left, my another friend asked me, "why didn't you just give her the souvenir and snacks directly? I think it would be fine if you just steal one for her."
I answered..
"No, I wanted to teach her this life lesson..that we have to fight first before we get what we want.
And so did she..taught me how to be tough" :)

hold on, kid. you have no idea how brave you will be


*

And at the other side, today was also interesting for me..
Well, the competition I said above was the first part of my job in this event..
btw, it's kinda hard for me to decide who's the winner :p


My second thing to do is accompanying some Veteran from my country..
#SejutaBungaUntukPahlawan 

Rasa syukur dapat berkontribusi dalam acara yang merangkul para pejuang Indonesia menuju kemerdekaan. Tak lupa pesan salah satu dari mereka, "Nak, jadilah penerus bangsa yang baik."

So I thank God, for such a good day I had.

Kahlil Gibran; "Cinta yang Agung"

Adalah ketika kamu menitikkan air mata, dan masih peduli terhadapnya..
Adalah ketika dia tidak mempedulikanmu, dan kamu masih menunggunya dengan setia..
Adalah ketika dia mencintai orang lain, dan kamu masih bisa tersenyum sembari berkata,
"Aku turut berbahagia untukmu’
Apabila cinta tidak berhasil..bebaskan dirimu..
Biarkan hatimu kembali melebarkan sayapnya, dan terbang ke alam bebas lagi..
Ingatlah, bahwa kamu mungkin menemukan cinta dan kehilangannya..tapi ketika cinta itu mati, kamu tidak perlu mati bersamanya..
Orang terkuat bukan mereka yang selalu menang..melainkan mereka yang tetap tegar ketika mereka jatuh
“Aku ingin mencintaimu dengan sederhana..”
 seperti kata yang tak sempat diucapkan kayu kepada api yang menjadikannya abu..
“Aku ingin mencintaimu dengan sederhana..”
seperti isyarat yang tak sempat dikirimkan awan kepada hujan yang menjadikannya tiada..

“..pabila cinta memanggilmu..ikutilah dia walau jalannya berliku-liku. Dan, pabila sayapnya merangkummu..pasrahlah serta menyerah..walau pedang tersembunyi di sela sayap itu melukaimu..”
