TENANGLAH HAI JIWAKU ...

Stres sudah menjadi bagian hidup manusia sejak dulu.Terlebih sekarang ketika hidup terasa lebih berat.Beban pekerjaan, masalah-masalah kehidupan, krisis multi dimensi dan sebagainya bisa dengan mudah membuat kita stres.

Persoalan bertimbun dan tidak kunjung selesai, belum lagi satu beres masalah berikutnya sudah muncul, bisa membuat kita depresi.
Orang jahat ada di mana-mana.

Perampok, pencopet, maling, penipu, dan orang-orang yang punya niat jahat lainnya bisa membuat jiwa kita resah.

Biaya hidup melambung?

Sulit keuangan?

Terlilit hutang?

Bingung mencukupi biaya sekolah anak?

Semua itu pun bisa membuat jiwa tak tenang.
Ada begitu banyak orang yang sulit tidur karena terlalu banyak pikiran, ada pula yang begitu bangun pagi sudah langsung diserang stres dan kekalutan.
Jika kita biasakan stres merajalela dalam hidup kita, hal kecil dan sepele sekalipun bisa membuat kita stres. Jika dibiarkan, stres bisa membuat kita sakit bahkan membunuh kita.

Pengkotbah pernah menyatakan betapa pentingnya ketenangan jiwa dan pikiran dalam hidup ini, jauh lebih penting dari usaha mati-matian kita untuk memenuhi segala kebutuhan hidup yang bisa menjadi sia-sia jika kita melakukannya dengan jiwa yang tidak tenang.

"Segenggam ketenangan lebih baik dari pada dua genggam jerih payah dan usaha menjaring angin."

God wants you to know ... that when the night feels very long, remember that a new day is just around the bend. With each new day we are given new hope, new possibilities, new opportunities. Each new day is a miracle

God wants you to know ... that your soul wants the freedom to sing, dance, love. As your body needs nourishment - food, drink, sleep, so does your soul need nourishment - sing, dance, love. Life is not all work, work is not all hard toil. Nourish your soul with the food that is right for it, for it ...is the altar of your own inner temple.

God wants you to know ... that when you feel down, look at yourself through God's eyes. There are times when no matter how hard you try, you just cannot accept yourself as you are. During such times, think of how you look to God's eyes. In God's eyes, there is no judgment, there is only acceptance. God sees your light when all that you can see are your shadows. God loves you more than anyone could ever love you as you really are:)

God wants you to know ... that you've been talking to God too much, and not listening enough. Prayer is when you talk to God. Meditation is when you become quiet and listen to God. You've learned how to talk and ask well. Time to learn how to listen and hear, because God has been answering you.

God wants you to know ... that the voice of God is best heard in silence. All too often loud events and daily busyness cloud your vision of God. Take some time to slow down; let there be silence, let there be peace. Calm your mind and let your inner voice re-emerge from the silence. Allow yourself to see visions, allow yourself to dream dreams; and you may hear the voice of God reaching out to you.

God wants you to know ... that contentment comes from unconditional love. When you love conditionally, you have to keep deciding if the other is worthy of your love. You can never let go of your guard enough to be content. Why not decide once and for all, and love once and for all. And be content.

God wants you to know ... that when the night feels very long, remember that a new day is just around the bend. With each new day we are given new hope, new possibilities, new opportunities. Each new day is a miracle.

God wants you to know ... that to worship God you must go beyond words to speak with your heart. You can mouth the words of a prayer all day long and just waste your time, unless you also speak with your heart. And to speak with your heart means to embody first. If you pray for love, be loving. If you pray for wealth, be generous. If you pray for health, practice health yourself. What is your favorite prayer? How can you begin to embody it?

Bahagia karena bersyukur ...

Bahagia karena bersyukur ...

Seorang wanita cantik mengenakan pakaian yang mewah datang ke psikiater untuk berkonsultasi.
Ia merasa seluruh hidupnya kosong tidak bermakna, gundah gulana ...

Psikiater itu memanggil seorang perempuan tua bernama Ani, salah seorang petugas di kantor itu dan berkata “Saya minta Ani untuk menceritakan bagaimana ia menemukan kebahagiaan.
Yang harus Ibu lakukan hanya mendengarkan saja,".

Ani duduk di kursi dan bercerita,“Suami saya meninggal karena kanker.
Tiga bulan kemudian putra tunggal saya meninggal ditabrak truk.
Saya tak punya siapapun.
Tak ada yang tertinggal.
Saya tak bisa tidur, tak bisa makan, tak bisa senyum.
Saya bahkan berpikir mau bunuh diri.
Sampai pada suatu malam, ketika pulang kerja, seekor kucing mengikuti saya.
Karena diluar dingin,saya membiarkan anak kucing itu masuk ke dalam rumah.
Saya memberinya susu, yang langsung habis diminum.
Anak kucing itu mengeong dan mengusapkan badannya ke kaki saya.
Untuk pertama kalinya dalam bulan itu, saya bisa tersenyum..."Ani berhenti sejenak.

Sambil pandangannya menerawang,Ani melanjutkan "Saya lalu berpikir,jika membantu anak kucing bisa membuat saya tersenyum,mungkin melakukan sesuatu untuk orang lain bisa membuat saya bahagia.
Jadi,hari berikutnya,saya buat kue dan saya bawa ke tetangga yang sakit,yang terbaring di ranjang dan tidak bisa bangun.
Setiap hari saya mencoba melakukan sesuatu yang baik pada seseorang.
Melihat mereka bahagia membuat saya bahagia,".

Ia melanjutkan "Hari-hari ini, rasanya tidak ada orang yang bisa makan lahap dan tidur pulas seperti saya.
Saya menemukan kebahagiaan, kegembiraan dengan memberikan kegembiraan pada oang lain,”.

Mendengar cerita ini,siperempuan kaya itu menangis.
Ia menyadari bahwa ia memiliki segala sesuatu yang bisa dibeli dengan uang,tapi dia kehilangan hal-hal yang tidak bisa dibeli uang!

Syukur adalah magnet keberkahan.
Bersyukurlah atas apa yang telah kita miliki agar kebahagiaan selalu mengisi kehidupan.
Dan keberkahan kebahagiaan pasti datang saat itu juga.
Jangan cari kesempurnaan tapi sempurnakan yang telah ada.
Jangan fokus pada apa yang hilang.
fokuslah pada apa yang kita miliki.

Kebahagiaan pada akhirnya bukanlah sebuah tujuan, kebahagiaan adalah cara memandang kita terhadap sesuatu keadaan!

Married or Not ...You should read this. ❤

【 Marriage 】「When I got home that night as my wife served dinner, I held her hand and said, I’ve got something to tell you. She sat down and ate quietly. Again I observed the hurt in her eyes.. Suddenly I didn’t know how to open my mouth. But I had to let her know what I was thinking. I want a divorce. I raised the topic calmly. She didn’t seem to be annoyed by my words, instead she asked me softly, why? I avoided her question. This made her angry. She threw away the chopsticks and shouted at me, you are not a man! That night, we didn’t talk to each other. She was weeping. I knew she wanted to find out what had happened to our marriage. But I could hardly give her a satisfactory answer; she had lost my heart to Jane. I didn’t love her anymore. I just pitied her! With a deep sense of guilt, I drafted a divorce agreement which stated that she could own our house, our car, and 30% stake of my company. She glanced at it and then tore it into pieces. The woman who had spent ten years of her life with me had become a stranger. I felt sorry for her wasted time, resources and energy but I could not take back what I had said for I loved Jane so dearly. Finally she cried loudly in front of me, which was what I had expected to see. To me her cry was actually a kind of release. The idea of divorce which had obsessed me for several weeks seemed to be firmer and clearer now. The next day, I came back home very late and found her writing something at the table. I didn’t have supper but went straight to sleep and fell asleep very fast because I was tired after an eventful day with Jane. When I woke up, she was still there at the table writing. I just did not care so I turned over and was asleep again. In the morning she presented her divorce conditions: she didn’t want anything from me, but needed a month’s notice before the divorce. She requested that in that one month we both struggle to live as normal a life as possible. Her reasons were simple: our son had his exams in a month’s time and she didn’t want to disrupt him with our broken marriage. This was agreeable to me. But she had something more, she asked me to recall how I had carried her into out bridal room on our wedding day. She requested that every day for the month’s duration I carry her out of our bedroom to the front door ever morning. I thought she was going crazy. Just to make our last days together bearable I accepted her odd request. I told Jane about my wife’s divorce conditions. . She laughed loudly and thought it was absurd. No matter what tricks she applies, she has to face the divorce, she said scornfully. My wife and I hadn’t had any body contact since my divorce intention was explicitly expressed. So when I carried her out on the first day, we both appeared clumsy. Our son clapped behind us, daddy is holding mommy in his arms. His words brought me a sense of pain. From the bedroom to the sitting room, then to the door, I walked over ten meters with her in my arms. She closed her eyes and said softly; don’t tell our son about the divorce. I nodded, feeling somewhat upset. I put her down outside the door. She went to wait for the bus to work. I drove alone to the office. On the second day, both of us acted much more easily. She leaned on my chest. I could smell the fragrance of her blouse. I realized that I hadn’t looked at this woman carefully for a long time. I realized she was not young any more. There were fine wrinkles on her face, her hair was graying! Our marriage had taken its toll on her. For a minute I wondered what I had done to her. On the fourth day, when I lifted her up, I felt a sense of intimacy returning. This was the woman who had given ten years of her life to me. On the fifth and sixth day, I realized that our sense of intimacy was growing again. I didn’t tell Jane about this. It became easier to carry her as the month slipped by. Perhaps the everyday workout made me stronger. She was choosing what to wear one morning. She tried on quite a few dresses but could not find a suitable one. Then she sighed, all my dresses have grown bigger. I suddenly realized that she had grown so thin, that was the reason why I could carry her more easily. Suddenly it hit me… she had buried so much pain and bitterness in her heart. Subconsciously I reached out and touched her head. Our son came in at the moment and said, Dad, it’s time to carry mom out. To him, seeing his father carrying his mother out had become an essential part of his life. My wife gestured to our son to come closer and hugged him tightly. I turned my face away because I was afraid I might change my mind at this last minute. I then held her in my arms, walking from the bedroom, through the sitting room, to the hallway. Her hand surrounded my neck softly and naturally. I held her body tightly; it was just like our wedding day. But her much lighter weight made me sad. On the last day, when I held her in my arms I could hardly move a step. Our son had gone to school. I held her tightly and said, I hadn’t noticed that our life lacked intimacy. I drove to office…. jumped out of the car swiftly without locking the door. I was afraid any delay would make me change my mind…I walked upstairs. Jane opened the door and I said to her, Sorry, Jane, I do not want the divorce anymore. She looked at me, astonished, and then touched my forehead. Do you have a fever? She said. I moved her hand off my head. Sorry, Jane, I said, I won’t divorce. My marriage life was boring probably because she and I didn’t value the details of our lives, not because we didn’t love each other anymore. Now I realize that since I carried her into my home on our wedding day I am supposed to hold her until death do us apart. Jane seemed to suddenly wake up. She gave me a loud slap and then slammed the door and burst into tears. I walked downstairs and drove away. At the floral shop on the way, I ordered a bouquet of flowers for my wife. The salesgirl asked me what to write on the card. I smiled and wrote, I’ll carry you out every morning until death do us apart. That evening I arrived home, flowers in my hands, a smile on my face, I run up stairs, only to find my wife in the bed - dead. My wife had been fighting CANCER for months and I was so busy with Jane to even notice. She knew that she would die soon and she wanted to save me from the whatever negative reaction from our son, in case we push through with the divorce. — At least, in the eyes of our son — I’m a loving husband... The small details of your lives are what really matter in a relationship. It is not the mansion, the car, property, the money in the bank. These create an environment conducive for happiness but cannot give happiness in themselves. So find time to be your spouse’s friend and do those little things for each other that build intimacy. Do have a real happy marriage! If you don’t share this, nothing will happen to you. If you do, you just might save a marriage. Many of life’s failures are people who did not realize how close they were to success when they gave up..

♥My Daddy's Hand ...

I may have this picture posted already ... I didn't check-but I fixed it up a little bit to make it better. This is the poem I found that I thought went well with it: Daddy, take my hand in yours and you will plainly see, How very much I need you to love and care for me. As my little hand grows, I w...ill need you even more. Everything I have done in life I have never done before. Teach me to be kind and loving, sharing and forgiving. Show me through your acts of love the pure joy of living. The years will pass by quickly and one day I will be grown, I will pass what you have taught me onto children of my own. Hold me always in your thoughts and remember when we are apart, The special love between a child and a daddy’s heart ...
