PUISI UNTUK YANG TERCINTA

October 20, 2007



19:16

Ketika cinta itu dekat

Terasa indah namun sering terabaikan

Ketika cinta itu jauh

Terasa terabaikan

Namun lebih indah, mesra dan nikmat



21:39

Ketika cinta telah menyatu

Dalam ikatan kekal

Hati jadi satu dalam binar sukacita

Waktu yang berlalu

Menjadi manis untuk dikenang

Kasih Ajaib, Sang Pencipta berkenan...





22:04

Andaikan waktu dapat diputar ulang

Kuminta kembali

Pada saat kita jumpa

Akan kutanam

Lebih banyak bunga cinta

Di pintu hatiku

Agar kau masuk segera

Dengan senyummu

Dan selamanya di hidupku





October 21, 2007



14:49

Jalinan kasih kita yang indah

Takkan pudar oleh waktu

Karena Yesuslah dasarnya

Mengikat sayang menjadi satu

Walau banyak tantangan di depan

Janji setia tetap terpaut, satu.





14:54

Kicau merdu burung membangunkanku

sinar mentari pagi

Menyapa hangat pipiku

Namun cinta dan kasihmu

Membara dalam hatiku

Menemaniku setiap saat

Tak pernah berlalu





15:01

Sebelas tahun telah berlalu,

Beribu duka telah kita lalui,

Berjuta suka telah kita jalani,

Berlaksa kasih telah kita bagi

Namun tak terbilang sayang

Yang akan terus kita resapi





18:14

Sentuhanmu menenangkan hatiku

Belaianmu membuatku terhanyut

Kecupanmu menghadirkan nuansa syahdu

Ah, andaikan jarak tk terpaut,

Kuingin segera hasratku kau pagut





18:20

Malam membungkus hari

Rindu dendam terbungkus rapi

Dambakan kehadiran kekasih hati

Bagaikan fajar merindu pagi

Tak letih terus menanti

Cinta kasihmu saatnya nanti





22:17

Saat kutatap wajahmu

Terpancar rona bahagia

Akan kasih merekah

Tertambat di dermata cinta

Sepucuk doa aku panjatkan

Rona itu terus berpendar

Saling membagi selamanya





October 22, 2007



19:11

Gemuruh langit bersahutan

Dengan rinai hujan yang turun

Hatiku berdebur

Bak gelombang ke pantai surut

Jerit sukma memendam rindu

Kapankah kasih datang menghibur?





19:44

Titik-titik hujan berpacu

Menggenangi bumi

Derai airmataku membasahi pipi

Detik yang kulalui tanpa kekasih

Terasa sewindu meradang hati

Bilakah tiba cinta sejati...

MY CUTE NEPHEWS

I have two cute nephews. The first one is Joshua Immanuel Fredrick Nanulaitta. His nickname is Jo. He was born in Makassar on February 16, 2001. Now he goes to Gamaliel Primary School in grade 1. He likes playing, watching tv and eating. He likes to eat almost all kinds of food, especially noodles and satee. No wonder he has chubby cheeks. The second is Jonathan Gabriel Marlessy Nanulaitta. We call him Jonat. He was born on April 29, 2002 in Makassar. He is a student of Gamaliel Kindergarten. Just like his older brother, he likes playing and watching tv but he does not like eating. He really chooses what he wants to eat. He prefers to eating bread than rice. One thing for sure, both of them love swimming and eating cheese so much… We are very close even that now I am working in other town. Every time I go back to Makassar, we spend more time in swimming pool and playground centers. They do love the time I come to Makassar. Well, that’s all about my nephews.

Friends? Buddy? Pal? Teman? You name it!

What does friend mean to you?

Read what Khahlil Gibran said about friend in his poem, "Rainbow"

RAINBOWS
If I could catch a rainbow

I would do it just for you.
And share with you it's beauty
On the days you're feeling blue.

If I could build a mountain
You could call your very own.
A place to find serenity
A place to be alone.

If I could take your troubles
I would toss them in the sea.
But all these things
I'm findingare impossible for me,
I cannot build a mountain
Or catch a rainbow fair
But let me be...
what I know best,
a friend that's always there.

It is beautiful...
As an old saying that
A friend in need is a friend indeed...

When we are in trouble, then the first person who would come to us is FRIEND.
When we need someone to hold, then a Friend would hold us.
When we want to share joy, then a Friend would laugh together with us.
So,
Make new friends
But keep the old
One is sliver and the other gold !

Now, what dies best friend mean to you?

A Best Friend!
A friend that really cares!
All my secrets i can share!
There when i need a hand!
There to understand!
When i cry!

She will be by!
If i am away!
She will call me day by day!
If i need her at all!
She'll be there to stand tall!
Anything i say will be heard!
She will listen word by word!
If I am late!
She will open the gate!
As she looks in my eyes!

The sparkle she realize!
She is the one that cares!
And the one thats there!
That's a best Friend!!


The best way to have a best friend is
TO BE ONE!

Beauty of Math!

1 x 8 + 1 = 9
12 x 8 + 2 = 98
123 x 8 + 3 = 987
1234 x 8 + 4 = 9876
12345 x 8 + 5 = 98765
123456 x 8 + 6 = 987654
1234567 x 8 + 7 = 9876543
12345678 x 8 + 8 = 98765432
123456789 x 8 + 9 = 987654321

1 x 9 + 2 = 11
12 x 9 + 3 = 111
123 x 9 + 4 = 1111
1234 x 9 + 5 = 11111
12345 x 9 + 6 = 111111
123456 x 9 + 7 = 1111111
1234567 x 9 + 8 = 11111111
12345678 x 9 + 9 = 111111111
123456789 x 9 +10= 1111111111

9 x 9 + 7 = 88
98 x 9 + 6 = 888
987 x 9 + 5 = 8888
9876 x 9 + 4 = 88888
98765 x 9 + 3 = 888888
987654 x 9 + 2 = 8888888
9876543 x 9 + 1 = 88888888
8765432 x 9 + 0 = 888888888

Brilliant, isn't it?

And look at this symmetry:
1 x 1 = 1
11 x 11 = 121
111 x 111 = 12321
1111 x 1111 = 1234321
11111 x 11111 = 123454321
111111 x 111111 = 12345654321
1111111 x 1111111 = 1234567654321
11111111 x 11111111 = 123456787654321
111111111 x 111111111=12345678987654321

Isn't amazing???

JIKA TUHAN MENJATUHKAN BATU

Seorang pekerja pada proyek bangunan memanjat ke atas tembok yang sangat tinggi.
Pada suatu saat ia harus menyampaikan pesan penting kepada teman kerjanya yang ada di bawahnya.
Pekerja itu berteriak-teriak tetapi temannya tdk bisa mendengarnya karena suara bising dari mesin-mesin dan orang-orang yang bekerja, sehingga usahanya sia-sia saja.
Oleh karena itu untuk menarik perhatian orang yang ada dibawahnya, ia mencoba melemparkan uang logam di depan temannya.
Temannya berhenti bekerja, mengambil uang itu lalu bekerja kembali.
Pekerja itu mencoba lagi, tetapi usahanya yang keduapun memperoleh hasil yang sama.
Tiba-tiba ia mendapat ide.
Ia mengambil batu kecil lalu melemparkannya ke arah orang itu.
Batu itu tepat mengenai kepala temannya, dan karena merasa sakit temannya menengadah ke atas.
Sekarang pekerja itu dapat menjatuhkan catatan yang berisi pesannya.

Tuhan kadang-kadang menggunakan pengalaman-pengalaman yang menyakitkan untuk membuat kita menengadah kepada-Nya. Seringkali Tuhan memberi berkat, tetapi itu tidak cukup untuk membuat kita menengadah kepada-Nya. Karena itu memang lebih tepat jika Tuhan menjatuhkan "batu" kepada kita.
