Joel Howard--arrogant, self-assured and all too aware of his sexual magnetism--reminded Cassie of the unlikelihood of anyone ever loving her.

5] Fallen by Celeste Bradley

Her Wicked Dreams

When Izzy went to bed, she never expected to awaken to disgrace. Of course, it felt
wonderful. . . warm hands on her flesh, rough stubbled skin on her cheek. It all
seemed some wonderful dream. But that hardly mattered to the ton. To them, she
was ruined, for Lord Eppingham Julian Rowley had been discovered in her bed,
and she'd claimed him as her own. Why had she done it? Why had she brought
ruination to her name and dishonor to her family--dishonor that could only be
erased by marriage? She had not wanted to trap the handsome rake in wedlock.
Though she might fall forever into his golden-brown eyes, marriage to any man
was not something she sought. Nor had she acted from any true fear of the ton's
disdain. It had been something in his touch, his kiss. Something had called out to
guard Julian from ruination, to place herself in the way. If to save this man meant
to be fallen, so be it. And in saving him, she just might save herself.

Brant had inherited the obligation to marry Daphne, charitably described to him as

pleasures of bachelor life--until he met the lady in question. Her reputation was
obviously undeserved, because this was no ugly duckling; this was a beautiful
swan.

But can this strange twist of fate lead to the silver lining that both have been searching for?

Surat kepada Tuhan Yesus

2010-01-09T18:35:00.002+07:00

Dengan hormat,

Tuhan, aku ingin tahu..

Mengapa kau ijinkan hal-hal yang tidak adil terjadi di dunia ini? Mengapa aku harus memberikan pipi yang kanan jika ditampar pipi yang kiri? Mengapa aku harus mencintai musuhku? Mengapa sepertinya aku harus selalu mengalah walau dirugikan? Mengapa aku harus bersabar atas banyak hal yang tidak menyenangkan?

Tolong, Tuhan, jawab aku biar aku mengerti, karena aku merasa sangat lelah menanggung semua ini...

A reply from Heaven

Anak-Ku terkasih, tidakkah kausadari bahwa mata-Ku selalu tertuju padamu? Aku tau saat kau diperlakukan tidak adil. Aku melihat saat airmatamu mengalir menahan perasaan jengkel yang tak terucapkan. Aku bahkan ikut merasakan kepedihan hatimu saat kau dikecewakan.

Tapi taukah kau bahwa aku semakin mengasihimu saat Aku melihat kau memaafkan orang lain yang menyakitimu dan bukannya membalas keburukan mereka? Dan melihatmu bersabar atas sikap jahat yang mereka tujukan padamu membuat-Ku sangat marah. Aku ijinkan semua itu terjadi supaya kau terlatih makin sempurna dan menyerupai Aku. Tapi, pada saatnya Aku akan menggantikan semuanya dan memberkatimu sesuai kemuliaan dan kekayaan-Ku. Aku akan membukakan bagimu pintu-pintu berkat di mana tak ada seorangpun yang bisa menutupnya. Dan Aku akan memberikan kepadamu kesempatan-kesempatan emas di mana tak seorangpun bisa mengambilnya. Dan Aku telah melihat betapa jahatnya perbuatan mereka, dan akan membuat perhitungan dengan mereka yang tak dapat kaubayangkan.

Jadi, anak-Ku, janganlah kau berpikir bahwa Aku mengabaikanmu, karena sesungguhnya mata-Ku ada di segala tempat, mengawasi orang jahat dan orang baik.

Love,
Jesus

Cantik itu wajib hukumnya dan kesempurnaan adalah segalanya. Pastikan kau selalu tampil memesona dan bungkam mereka dengan senyuman terbaikmu. Satu kesalahan kecil saja - voila! - bibir-bibir ber-lipgloss itu pasti ramai menghabisimu...

GLAM GIRLS. YOU WILL LOVE US—WE PROMISE.

Kamu melihat kami berkilauan setiap hari. Tatanan rambut kami selalu sempurna, bahkan sejak bangun tidur. Kamu bilang, kami mengeja ‘Chanel’, ‘Fendi’, dan ‘Prada’ lebih cepat daripada ‘Geometri’. Menurutmu, kami cantik—dan diam-diam benci setengah mati karenanya. Kadang, kamu juga berharap kamulah yang dikerumuni cowok-cowok itu—bukan kami. Malamnya, dalam doa kamu bertanya, kenapa Tuhan bisa sebegitu nggak adilnya.

But, here’s the truth. Setiap pagi, kami ngabisin waktu lebih lama di depan cermin karena kami sadar, penampilan glamor nggak sesederhana Miley Cyrus make wig pirang dan, poof, jadilah Hannah Montana. Kami bisa juga kok mengeja ‘Geometri’—meskipun JARANG BANGET make kata itu dalam percakapan sehari-hari. Dan tentang cantik... well, itu anugerah. Kalo kamu benci kami karena sesuatu yang dibawa sejak lahir, apa akan adil kalo kami juga membencimu karena pintar? Dan tentang cowok-cowok itu, kamu nggak tahu kan kadang-kadang mereka bisa jadi sangat posesif dan menyusahkan.

Jadi gimana, masih berani bilang Tuhan itu nggak adil?

Jadi pintar itu gampang—belajar aja yang rajin. Jadi cantik lebih gampang lagi. Dengan semua servis ala Nip/Tuck yang ada sekarang, apa aja mungkin. Kekayaan? Well, hanya karena lahir di keluarga kaya raya sampai tujuh turunan, bukan berarti kamu lantas punya potensi sebagai pusat perhatian. You can buy Gucci, but you can’t buy style.

Kami nggak pernah pelit kok ngasih tahu rahasianya jadi terkenal. Kamu nggak boleh dijengkal, apalagi jadi orang yang gampang ditebak. Kalau ada yang bersikap buruk ke kamu, jangan takut. Kamu juga punya hak penuh buat balik nge-bitchy-in dia. Kamu juga harus berani tampil beda. Sesekali, nggak ada salahnya tampil kontroversial. Yang nggak masuk akal biasanya susah dilupakan.

Ribet? Emang! Siapa juga sih yang bilang jadi populer itu gampang?

We can’t really say more without giving away a big, fat spoiler, but it turns out that:
1. Colin is a bit of a meddler,
2. Hyacinth is more of a meddler, and:
3. The only time all of the Bridgertons stop talking at once is when Penelope has something really embarrassing to say.

Hey, we never said it was easy to marry a Bridgerton, just that it was fun...

Pintu Yang Sama

2009-11-26T11:37:00.001+07:00

Seorang pria yang sedang mengalami masalah dengan keadaan keuangannya memutuskan untuk menghubungi seorang ahli keuangan terkenal. Mereka membuat janji untuk bertemu. Pada hari yang ditentukan, pria tersebut memasuki ruang tunggu kantor sang penasihat keuangan. Anehnya, ia tidak disambut oleh seorang resepsionis pada umumnya. Justru di hadapannya ada dua pintu. Pintu pertama tertulis: merasa payah dalam pekerjaan, sedangkan di pintu kedua tertulis: enjoy dalam pekerjaan.

Karena ia merasa payah, maka ia masuk ke pintu yang bertuliskan: merasa payah dalam pekerjaan. Namun ketika ia masuk ke ruangan tersebut, ia dihadapkan dua pintu lagi. Pintu yang satu bertuliskan: berpenghasilan kurang dari 30 juta per tahun, dan pintu yang kedua bertuliskan; berpenghasilan diatas 30 juta per tahun.
Masuk pintu tersebut, ia kembali dihadapkan dua pintu lain; menabung lebih dari 5 juta per tahun, dan pintu yang satunya bertuliskan: menabung kurang dari 5 juta per tahun. Tetapi ketika ia memauki pintu tersebut ternyata ia malah kembali lagi di ruang tunggu yang sebelumnya ia sudah masuki.

Pintu yang sama akan membawa kita kepada hasil yang sama pula. Pria dalam cerita di atas tidak akan pernah bisa keluar dari masalah keuangan, selama ia tidak mau mencoba masuk melalui pintu yang lain. Hidupnya ingin berubah, tapi sayang hal tersebut tidak diimbangi dengan tindakan yang juga berubah.

Jika kita terus saja melakukan hal-hal yang sama seperti yang biasa kita lakukan, maka kita juga akan terus mendapatkan hasil yang sama dengan yang selama ini kita dapatkan. Jika ingin hidup kita berubah, tidak ada pilihan lain kecuali kita juga mau mengubah sikap, cara berpikir, dan tindakan kita.

Adalah hal yang mustahil jika kita ingin mendapat hasil berbeda padahal kita selalu melakukan cara yang sama.

"Namun kamu tidak berbalik kepada-Ku," Demikianlah Firman Tuhan
( Amos 4 : 6 )

Lepaskan Pegangan Anda

2009-11-26T11:35:00.001+07:00

Suatu hari, Kerry Shook, penulis buku "One Month to Live" mengajak putranya bermain ke taman. Begitu sampai di taman, putranya Josh langsung berlari ke arah permainan yang paling di sukainya, sebuah palang untuk bergantung.

"Tolong angkat aku untuk bergantung di palang ini," demikian pintanya pada sang Ayah.

Kerry lalu mangangkatnya, dan tangan kecil Josh langsung berpegang erat pada palang tersebut tanpa dipegang lagi oleh ayahnya.

Kaki kecilnya bergantung sekitar 5 kaki di atas tanah, dan Josh terlihat begitu bangga bisa kuat bergantung disana. Sekitar beberapa menit kemudian, dia mulai lelah dan meminta di turunkan.

"Ayah, tolong turunkan saya."

Ayahnya menjawab,"Josh, lepaskan saja peganganmu dan aku akan menangkapmu."

Terlihat segurat keraguan di wajahnya, dia berkata,"Tidak, turunkan aku."

Kembali Kerry berkata,"Josh, jika kamu lepaskan peganganmu, aku akan menangkapmu."

"Tidak, turunkan aku."

"Josh, aku mencintaimu. Aku janji, aku akan menangkapmu."

Bagi Kerry ini adalah kesempatan untuk mengajar Josh bahwa dia bisa mempercayai ayahnya. Josh hanya perlu melepaskan pegangan pada palang itu, dan ayahnya akan menangkapnya. Tetapi pria kecil itu bertahan dengan seluruh kekuatannya bergantung di palang itu. Dia berpegangan hingga tangannya mulai kelelahan dan tidak bisa bertahan lagi. Akhirnya dia lepaskan pegangannya dan dia ditangkap oleh ayahnya.

Sebuah senyum mengembang diwajahnya, dia diturunkan ke tanah oleh ayahnya dan langsung berlari untuk bermain ayunan.

Pelajaran untuk Josh telah selesai, namun ayahnya, Kerry tiba-tiba mendengar suara Tuhan dengan jelas yang berbicara kepadanya.

Seperti itulah hubunganmu denganKu. Kamu sering berpegangan dengan suatu keputusasaan pada palang kehidupanmu, coba melakukan sesuatu dengan kekuatanmu sendiri. Kamu mengalami pergumulan yang tiada akhir, mencoba mengendalikan semua situasi. Kamu bertahan dan berpikir bahwa tidak ada orang yang akan menangkapmu sehingga kamu pikir lebih baik kamu bertahan di palang tersebut dan mempererat pegangan. Ketika kamu lelah bergantung, dan tanganmu mulai lemah, Aku berkata, "Lepaskan pegangan, dan Aku akan menangkapmu. Lepaskan peganganmu. Aku janji, Aku mencintaimu dan akan menangkapmu.

* * * *

Seringkali kita mencoba mengerjakan segala sesuatu dengan kekuatan kita sendiri, berpikir sebaiknya kita kekiri, ketika Tuhan berkata ke kanan.

Hari ini Dia berkata, "Aku membentukmu dengan tanganKu sendiri. Aku menciptakanmu dengan sebuah tujuan, dan Aku mati untuk menebusmu. Mengapa kamu tidak bisa mempercayaiKu? Aku memberikan hidupKu untukmu. Aku Tuhan atas alam semesta ini. Kamu hanya perlu melepas peganganmu, dan Aku akan menangkapmu."

Bapa sorgawi ingin Anda dan saya untuk mempercayainya. Jika Anda berkeras untuk mengendalikan keadaan Anda sendiri, berjuang dengan kekuatan Anda sendiri, merencakan apa yang baik menurut pikiran Anda sendiri, Anda akan kelelahan. Anda akan kehabisan daya.

Ini adalah saatnya Anda mengambil sebuah resiko untuk melepaskan pegangan Anda. Ini saatnya untuk mengalami kuasa Tuhan bagaimana Dia menyatakan mukjizatnya dalam hidup Anda bahkan pada bagian-bagian yang tidak pernah Anda pikirkan sebelumnya.

Mempercayai Tuhan membutuhkan keberanian, hal itu di butuhkan iman. Namun mempercayai Tuhan tidak akan pernah merugikan. Memang, jantung Anda akan sedikit deg-degan, tapi percayalah Dia selalu tepat waktu dan tidak mungkin meleset untuk menangkap Anda.

Waktu Tuhan selalu indah, dan Dia dapat dipercaya.

Semoga bisa menjadi bacaan yang bermanfaat ya!!!

Ada seorang gadis buta yang membenci dirinya sendiri karena kebutaannya itu. Tidak hanya terhadap dirinya sendiri, tetapi dia juga membenci semua orang kecuali kekasihnya.

Kekasihnya selalu ada disampingnya untuk menemani dan menghiburnya. Dia berkata akan menikahi kekasihnya hanya jika dia bisa melihat dunia.

Suatu hari, ada seseorang yang mendonorkan sepasang mata kepadanya sehingga dia bisa melihat semua hal, termasuk kekasihnya. Kekasihnya bertanya, "Sekarang kamu bisa melihat dunia. Apakah kamu mau menikah denganku?"

Gadis itu terguncang saat melihat bahwa kekasihnya ternyata buta. Dia menolak untuk menikah dengannya. Kekasihnya pergi dengan air mata mengalir, dan kemudian menulis sepucuk surat singkat kepada gadis itu, "Sayangku, tolong jaga baik-baik mata saya."

**********

Kisah di atas memperlihatkan bagaimana pikiran manusia berubah saat status dalam hidupnya berubah. Hanya sedikit orang yang ingat bagaimana keadaan hidup sebelumnya dan lebih sedikit lagi yang ingat terhadap siapa harus berterima kasih karena telah menyertai dan menopang bahkan di saat yang paling menyakitkan.

Hidup adalah anugerah!

Hari ini sebelum engkau berpikir untuk mengucapkan kata-kata kasar, Ingatlah akan seseorang yang tidak bisa berbicara.

Sebelum engkau mengeluh mengenai cita rasa makananmu, Ingatlah akan seseorang yang tidak punya apapun untuk dimakan.

Sebelum engkau mengeluh tentang suami atau isterimu, Ingatlah akan seseorang yang menangis kepada Tuhan meminta pasangan hidup.

Hari ini sebelum engkau mengeluh tentang hidupmu, Ingatlah akan seseorang yang begitu cepat pergi ke surga.

Sebelum engkau mengeluh tentang anak-anakmu, Ingatlah akan seseorang yang begitu mengharapkan kehadiran seorang anak, tetapi tidak mendapatnya.

Sebelum engkau bertengkar karena rumahmu yang kotor, dan tidak ada yang membersihkan atau menyapu lantai, Ingatlah akan orang gelandangan yang tinggal di jalanan.

Sebelum merengek karena harus menyopir terlalu jauh, Ingatlah akan sesorang yang harus berjalan kaki untuk menempuh jarak yang sama.

Dan ketika engkau lelah dan mengeluh tentang pekerjaanmu, Ingatlah akan para penganguran, orang cacat dan mereka yang menginginkan pekerjaanmu.

Sebelum engkau menuding atau menyalahkan orang lain, Ingatlah bahwa tidak ada seorang pun yang tidak berdosa dan kita harus menghadap pengadilan Tuhan.

Dan ketika beban hidup tampaknya akan menjatuhkanmu, Pasanglah senyuman di wajahmu dan berterima kasihlah pada Tuhan karena engkau masih hidup dan ada di dunia ini. Hidup adalah anugerah, jalanilah, nikmatilah, rayakan dan isilah itu.

NIKMATILAH SETIAP SAAT DALAM HIDUPMU, KARENA MUNGKIN ITU TIDAK AKAN TERULANG LAGI!

Wajib dibaca semua orang termasuk yang punya anak-anak!

Setelah melemparkan buku-bukunya di sofa, dia mengambil camilan dan mulai online. Dia log-on dengan nama ByAngel213. Dia memeriksa daftar sambungan yang masuk, ada yang bernama GoTo123 juga sedang online. Dia mengirimkan pesan :

ByAngel213:
Hi. Aku senang kamu online! Aku pikir ada seseorang yang mengikutiku pulang dari sekolah hari ini. Itu mengerikan!

GoTo123:
LOL (Laugh Out Loud = Ketawa Ngakak). Kamu kebanyakan nonton TV. Kenapa orang mengikuti kamu? Bukankah kamu tinggal di perumahan yang aman?

ByAngel213:
Tentu saja. LOL (Ketawa Ngakak). Aku rasa itu hanya pikiranku saja, karena aku tidak lihat seorang pun.

GoTo123:
Kecuali kamu menuliskan namamu saat online. Kamu tidak lakukan itu khan?

ByAngel213:
Tentu saja tidak. Aku tidak sebodoh itu, tahu.

GoTo123:
Apa kamu bermain softball sehabis sekolah hari ini?

ByAngel213:
Ya, dan teamku menang !!

GoTo123:
Itu hebat! Team siapa yang kamu mainkan?

ByAngel213:
Kita mainkan team Hornets. LOL (Ketawa Ngakak). Seragamnya keren banget! Mereka seperti lebah. LOL

GoTo123:
Apa nama teammu?

ByAngel213:
Canton Cats (Kucing2 Canton). Ada gambar cakar harimau di seragam kita. Pokoknya keren.

GoTo1 23:
Kamu pelempar bola?

ByAngel213:
Tidak, aku jaga di base kedua. Aku harus pergi. Ada PR yang harus kukerjakan sebelum orang tuaku pulang. Dah!

GoTo123:
Sampai ketemu lagi. Dah

Sementara itu, GoTo123 mulai melacak menu "keanggotaan" dan mulai mencari profil sebenarnya dari ByAngel213. Ketika ditemukan, dia langsung menandai dan mencetaknya. Dia mengambil pena dan mulai menuliskan apa yang telah diketahuinya tentang ByAngel213.

Namanya: Shannon (perempuan)
Lahir: 3 Januari 1985
Umur: 13 tahun
Tempat tinggal: Carolina Utara

Hobi: softball, koor, skating dan pergi ke mall.

Selain informasi ini, dia tahu Shannon tinggal di Canton karena baru saja memberitahu. Dia tahu Shannon sendirian di rumah sampai jam 06:30 sore sampai kedua orang tuanya pulang kerja. Dia tahu Shannon bermain softball tiap hari Kamis sore dalam team sekolah yang bernama Canton Cats. Nomer favoritnya 7, seperti yang tercetak di kaosnya. Dia tahu Shannon kelas delapan (satu SMP) di SMP Canton. Semua informasi itu dia peroleh dari Shannon waktu mereka online. Dia sekarang sudah memperoleh informasi yang cukup untuk bisa menemukan Shannon.

* * * * *

Shannon tidak bercerita pada orang tuanya mengenai kejadian dalam perjalanan pulang dari lapangan taman kemarin. Dia tidak ingin orang tuanya ribut dan melarang dia jalan kaki saat pulang dari bermain softball. Orang tuanya selalu berlebihan dan berpikir yang buruk. Itu membuatnya berharap seandainya dia bukan anak tunggal. Mungkin jika dia punya saudara laki-laki atau perempuan, orang tuanya tidak menjadi over protektif lagi.

Pada hari Kamis, Shannon sudah lupa dengan langkah kaki yang mengikutinya.

Permainan softballnya sangat asyik, sampai tiba-tiba dia merasa ada seseorang yag memperhatikannya. Saat itu ingatannya muncul kembali. Dia melirik dari posisinya berdiri di base kedua, ada seorang laki-laki sedang mengamatinya dengan seksama.

Laki-laki itu bersandar di pagar di belakang base pertama dan dia tersenyum saat melihatnya. Dia tidak terlihat menakutkan dan Shannon langsung membuang perasaan ketakutan yang dirasakan.

Setelah permainan selesai, Shannon duduk di bangku sambil berbicara dengan pelatih. Dia memperhatikan laki-laki itu tersenyum lagi saat dia melewatinya. Dia mengangguk dan Shannon membalas tersenyum. Laki-laki itu melihat nama Shannon tercetak di belakang kaosnya seragamnya. Dia tahu sudah menemukan semua identitas Shannon.

Diam-diam, dia berjalan menjauh dalam jarak yang aman. Rumah Shannon hanya beberapa blok dari lapangan itu, dan begitu dia melihat tempat tinggalnya, laki-laki itu segera kembali ke tempat parkir dan mengambil mobilnya.

Sekarang dia menunggu. Dia memutuskan untuk makan sedikit sebelum pergi ke rumah Shannon. Dia mengendarai mobil ke sebuah restoran cepat saji dan duduk di sana menunggu waktu untuk bergerak.

* * * * *

Shannon sedang berada di kamarnya saat dia mendengar suara panggilan dari ruang tamu.

"Shannon, cepat kemari," panggil ayahnya. Suaranya kedengaran marah tapi dia tidak tahu mengapa. Dia berjalan menuju ruang tamu dan melihat laki-laki yang yang ditemui di taman sedang duduk di sofa.

"Duduk," ayahnya memulai pembicaraan, "Bapak ini baru saja bercerita banyak hal yang menarik tentang kamu."

Shannon terhenyak ke belakang. Bagaimana mungkin laki-laki itu bisa bercerita segala macam pada orang tuanya? Dia tidak pernah bertemu dengannya sebelum hari ini !

"Kamu tahu saya siapa, Shannon?" laki-laki itu bertanya.

"Tidak," jawab Shannon

"Saya adalah perwira polisi dan teman online-mu, GoTo123."

Shannon terkejut luar biasa, "Itu tidak mungkin! GoTo123 adalah anak seumuranku. Umurnya 14 tahun. Dan dia tinggal di Michigan!"

Laki-laki itu tersenyum, "Saya memang sudah menceritakan semuanya, tapi itu tidak benar. Kamu lihat Shannon, ada orang-orang di online yang berpura-pura menjadi seorang anak; dan saya salah satunya. Tapi saat yang lain melakukan itu untuk menyakiti dan berbuat jahat pada anak-anak, saya termasuk kelompok dari orang tua yang melakukannya untuk melindungi anak-anak dari orang jahat. Saya datang kemari untuk bertemu denganmu dan mengajarimu bahayanya berkomunikasi dengan orang yang tidak kamu kenal secara online. Kamu telah menceritakan semua hal yang cukup untuk saya pakai untuk menemukan kamu. Kamu menyebutkan nama sekolahmu, nama team softballmu dan posisi dimana kamu bermain. Bahkan kamu menyebutkan nomer kaos seragammu yang membuat saya menemukanmu dengan mudah."

Sekali lagi Shannin tertegun, "Bukankan anda tinggal di Michigan?"

Laki-laki itu tertawa. "Tidak, saya tinggal di Releigh, dekat sini. Itu saya buat supaya kamu merasa aman karena berpikir bahwa saya tinggal di tempat yang jauh, bukan?"

Shannon mengangguk.

"Saya punya seorang teman yang memiliki anak perempuan seperti kamu. Hanya dia tidak beruntung. Laki-laki yang menemukannya membunuhnya saat dia sendirian di rumah. Anak-anak diajarkan untuk tidak mengatakan pada siapa pun bahwa mereka sedang sendirian di rumah, dimana sepanjang waktu itu mereka gunakan untuk online. Orang jahat akan menjebak kalian untuk memberikan informasi sedikit tentang ini dan tentang itu saat online. Sebelum kamu mengetahuinya, kamu telah mengatakan banyak hal sehingga mereka mudah menemukanmu bahkan sebelum kamu menyadari telah melakukannya. Saya harap kamu belajar dari kejadian ini dan tidak mengulanginya lagi. Beritahu teman-temanmu juga supaya mereka bisa aman."

"Saya berjanji!"

Malam itu Shannon, ayah dan ibunya mengucapkan terima kasih pada Tuhan karena sudah melindungi Shannon dari kejadian yang bisa menjadi peristiwa tragis.

The Sands of Forgiveness

2009-07-18T18:45:00.001+07:00

A story tells that two friends were walking through the desert. During some point of the journey they had an argument, and one friend slapped the other one in the face.

The one who got slapped was hurt, but without saying anything, wrote in the sand:
TODAY MY BEST FRIEND SLAPPED ME IN THE FACE.

They kept on walking until they found an oasis, where they decided to take a bath. The one who had been slapped got stuck in the mire and started drowning, but the friend saved him.
After he recovered from the near drowning, he wrote on a stone:
TODAY MY BEST FRIEND SAVED MY LIFE.

The friend who had slapped and saved his best friend asked him, "After I hurt you, you wrote in the sand and now, you write on a stone, why?"

The other friend replied "When someone hurts us we should write it down in sand where winds of forgiveness can erase it away. But, when someone does something good for us, we must engrave it in stone where no wind can ever erase it."

The wife stared at him.. "What in the world is wrong with you? You think I don't know how to fry a couple of eggs?"

The husband calmly replied, "I wanted to show you what it feels like when I'm driving."

Eve Dallas in JD Robb Death Series

2008-12-23T18:37:00.000+07:00

Character Basis

Eve was found in an alley in Dallas, Texas, when she was supposedly eight years old. She had a broken arm, was covered in old blood, and had no memory. Unable to remember anything at all, her social worker named her and put Eve into a foster home, the beginning of Eve's life in the system. After reaching the age of majority, she moves to New York City where she becomes a police officer. The dates of all her promotions are not specific, but it is mentioned that she became a detective, second grade in early 2051, and eventually, by the start of the series, is lieutenant in the Homicide squad as a way of dealing with her own psychological issues.

Throughout the series, her memories return, mostly through a series of nightmares, revealing a history of incestual rape and patricide with her father, Richard Troy. It is revealed that he was raising her in order to sell her out to child molesters looking to easily rape a child. Her mother, Stella, was a prostitute and a drug addict and was occasionally beaten and raped by Troy herself, but hated her daughter. If Stella is alive, her whereabouts are unknown.

It was implied that since Eve had lost her memory, she had forgotten her name, as well, but it is eventually revealed in Reunion in Death that the reason Eve cannot remember her name is because her parents never gave her one. The fact that no one in Dallas could track down her ID indicates one of two things: that either Homeland Security interfered and deleted her data, or that her parents never had her registered in the first place. For all intents and purposes, Eve did not exist in any records before she was eight years old.

After her relationship and subsequent marriage to Roarke, Eve is a much happier and, to some extent, calmer person; she is more willing to work with and depend on other people. They celebrate their one-year anniversary in Reunion in Death, in July of 2059. Eve's relationship with Roarke is central to the series and her character (see below).

Eve's official residence is 222 Central Park West, New York, NY with Roarke.

Physical Characteristics

Eve is typically described as having whiskey-colored eyes and tawny hair and being tall and slim, with a distinctive dent in her chin. Her measurements are specifically revealed in Immortal in Death.

Height: 5 feet, 9 inches
Age: appromixately thirty years old in Naked in Death
Weight: 120 pounds
Waist: 26.2 inches

The latter two likely fluctuate throughout the series (it is mentioned in Holiday in Death that Eve has lost a lot of weight from injuries sustained in Vengeance in Death), but no numbers are given thereafter.

It has been noted repeatedly during the series that Eve does not have large breasts, which is in line with Eve's weight. In fact, in Naked in Death, Eve is not wearing a bra when she first has sex with Roarke and throughout the series, is not mentioned to wear one very often—even during scenes describing her dressing, presumably because she does not need one. In regards to her face, Trina, Mavis's friend, occasionally does make-up for Eve, and has commented several times that Eve has very good bone structure. In Origin in Death, Eve's aide/partner, Peabody, comments that Eve's nose is 'chiseled' while they are in a body-sculpting clinic (and considering if she, Peabody, might do well to have a similarly 'chiseled' nose).

Personality

Eve is a fiercely dedicated cop; she initially has very few friendships and remarks that she can "count on her hands" how many people there are who really mean something to her. Roarke says to her in Memory in Death that for someone who intrinsically doesn't like people, there's no one more determined to find them justice.

She comments once (to Roarke) that she was never sick upon seeing a body at a scene (if she was sick, it was later), as she feels that there has to be someone who can handle it.

Eve prefers to do things on her own, as it has less complications that way, both in her personal and professional lives. For instance, Eve sleeps with Roarke—a suspect in her murder case—an act that jeopardizes her job. However, she does not tell Roarke, even when he calls and asks her if anything has happened. As for her job, she chose to be a police officer because that way she could have definite control over her own life, something she didn't have until she was eighteen. She initially has, and still does have, difficulty in opening up to and depending on people. For example, she doesn't tell Peabody that she was repeatedly raped by her father and that she killed him in self-defense until Visions in Death. For another example, prior to Roarke, she had no serious romances. In fact, her relationship with Don Webster implies that she had rare one-night stands as opposed to relationships.

Given Eve's past—her memories indicate that her father started raping her when she was around five or six—she is extremely sickened by experiences with rape victims and has more difficulty with these cases. Due to this, she desires to save children and greatly regrets their deaths; at the same time, she has trouble in dealing with live children. They generally confuse her and she desires to stay as far away from them as possible.

Her darker past aside, however, Eve is rough, often brusque, in manner, tends to a great deal of sarcasm, adores chocolate and coffee, and can be very considerate. She wasn't particularly good in school, but nonetheless is very clever and has excellent intuition.

Society

The series is set in late 2050s New York, following a period of urban warfare sometime in the preceding decades that caused tremendous damage to cities and human populations. Whites are a minority in Eve's futuristic society, where most citizens are of mixed race. Other planets have been discovered and humans have built man-made worlds where they travel for holidays and where the most dangerous prisoners are confined. Androids or "droids" are commonly used as mechanical servants or extra office labor. Food is prepared by machines called "Auto Chefs."

Roarke in JD Robb Death Series

2008-12-23T12:29:00.003+07:00

Character basis

Roarke is in his mid-thirties; he is an immigrant from Dublin, Ireland; in NYC, he is the CEO of Roarke Industries, and one of the richest men in the world, possibly the richest.

He owns an old mansion off of Central Park that he remodeled to his specifications with very high tech security. Also in the home is his own personal collection of firearms, which are illegal in 2058 unless one possesses a collector's license. Roarke also owns maces, swords, daggers, medieval armor, and other assorted weapons. He is quite skilled in electronics and can dismantle any type of security, lock, or coding, as well as hacking into any electronic database—including but not limited to the FBI, Interpol, and Homeland Security.

He convinces Eve to move in with him in Glory in Death and then proposes at the end of the book. Roarke's house officially becomes a home once Eve moves in, and after this, Roarke is happiest at home rather than traveling. He also enjoys helping Eve with her cases, finding the role reversal quite entertaining.

Official Statistics

Date of Birth: October 6, 2024
Residence: 222 Central Park West
Roarke Industries Headquarters: 500 Fifth Avenue
Established Roarke Industries in 2042

Eve's computer in Naked in Death actually lists his birth to be in 2023, making Roarke's apparent age 34, but as Roarke discovers in Portrait in Death, his official record makes him one year younger than he actually is. Therefore he is really 33. Additionally, October 6 is an estimate; apparently Roarke simply picked this date as he knew he was born in the first week of October, as he tells Delia.

Roarke has a conversation with Summerset that indicates that at one point in time, Roarke had wanted to get rid of his name, as he did not like being connected with his father. Summerset convinces him to keep it and make it his own, but as seen in the In Death books, Roarke is only known as Roarke, a name that should be his surname, and has no apparent given name.

Physical characteristics

Eve looks up his statistics in Naked in Death. They are as follows:
Height: 6 feet, 2 inches
Age: appromixately 34 years old (but see above)
Weight: 173 pounds
Eye color: blue
Hair color: black
His black hair is long enough that he can and has tied it back.

Personality

Roarke appears to be very even-tempered, but he does in fact have a very nasty temper if riled. He does not lash out indiscriminately, however, and usually is only angry when the situation calls for it. He has his own personal sense of justice separate from legality; if he believes something should be done, he will do it, even if it is illegal. A case in point is the revenge murders he commits for the rape and murder of Summerset's daughter.

He wanted money because it gave him security, and makes no compunctions about enjoying its benefits. Roarke has a very nice mansion, tastefully but expensively decorated, particularly since Roarke has a fondness of antique furniture, old master paintings, and in general, anything with a past to it. This is, as Roarke dryly comments to Mira, because he has no real past of his own.

In addition, he can use the money to buy clothing (which he likes very much) for both himself and his wife. In particular, he enjoys dressing his fashion-unconscious wife, much to her distaste. Roarke also gives Eve as many gifts as he can possibly get away with, justifying it because he wants to make up for everything she was not given before.

When Eve is semi-living with him in Glory in Death, Roarke decides to get rid of the last remaining illegal businesses he has out of a desire to not make her life difficult. His illegal activity is mostly restricted to conducting illegal searches if he feels it necessary, and occasionally carrying illegal weapons with him (only police officers are allowed to carry stunners, but he has several).

Roarke's greatest and most impossible desire is to take revenge for Eve, impossible because the perpetrator, her father, is already dead. Her nightmares cause him immense suffering because he knows that they will never fully go away, as her father can never truly be beaten. That said, he is given a minor chance at reprisal when he discovers that in Divided in Death that the Homeland Security organization knew that Eve was with and being raped by her father, but instead recommended a course of nonaction. Roarke wants to hunt down and kill the people who made and complied with the order, but does not because Eve says she won't be able to handle it if he does. It is likely his largest concession to Eve.

Children are not likely to happen any time soon. Though Roarke has expressed a desire, the simple fact is that neither of them is ready.

History

Roarke grew up in the slums of Dublin, Ireland, directly after the last and worst part of the series' fictional "Urban Wars", a period of unrest, violence, and corruption. Roarke believed his mother to be his father's wife, Meg Roarke, an abusive woman who lived with his father, Patrick Roarke and walked out on him when the young boy was five. In reality, his mother was an eighteen year-old woman named Siobhan Brody, who Patrick beat to death after she ran away with Roarke.

Roarke is ten when he first meets Summerset and Summerset's eight year old daughter, Marlena. The father and daughter typically run cons. Shortly after their meeting, according to Roarke's account in Immortal in Death, Patrick beats Roarke almost to death and leaves him for dead. Summerset, who had medical training, saves and helps Roarke recover.

When Roarke is twelve, he finds out that his father has been murdered; he immediately heads down to the alley where the death supposedly occurred. Patrick Roarke is indeed dead, stabbed in the throat, an apparent victim of a mugging. Roarke checks his father's pockets and leaves.

It is revealed in Portrait in Death that the killing was not random. In fact Summerset killed Patrick, a fact he confirms only to Eve, who has guessed it. As of Memory in Death, Roarke still does not know that Summerset killed Patrick. Summerset's motivation was to protect Roarke.

When Roarke is sixteen, his gambling operation is earning a very high profit, too high for a competing group. Marlena confesses her love to Roarke and offers herself to him; horrified, Roarke rejects her and sends her away, thinking she would go back to her room. Instead, Marlena leaves the house and is captured by the competing group, and six men rape and torture her until she dies. They then drop off her body at Summerset's doorstep in the morning. When Roarke and Summerset call the police, they discover that the police have been bought off and will not pursue the case. Roarke thus takes his own justice by murdering those six men over a three year period.

Roarke founds Roarke Industries in 2042, when he is (supposedly) nineteen years old. Presumably he must have immigrated to America by this point in time.

Further detailed information—at least in terms of years—is given throughout the books, revealing that Roarke worked as a pickpocket as a child (he sometimes takes Eve's badge from her without her knowledge to tease her) and as an adult, a thief of very expensive jewels.

Roarke has left most of his friends behind; he has one who tends a bar in Dublin, and another dies in Betrayal in Death. Many others have died or are unknown to him by the time the In Death books occur. With that, Eve's friends are also his friends.

Continuity errors

In Divided in Death, it is revealed that Richard Troy picks up Patrick Roarke at the airport in Dallas shortly before Troy dies, on May 13th, 2036. Eve is eight when she kills Troy; Roarke declares 'prior to finding out his real age' that he was twelve when his father dies which he would be because he would turn thirteen ( actually he turns twelve) after Troy dies. However, in 2036, Roarke is supposedly thirteen, making it an error on the part of either Roarke's memory or the author.

Since Roarke's b-day is in Oct he would not turn 13 until then so in May he would in fact still be 12

In Vengeance in Death, Roarke tells Eve how he met Summerset and Marlena working as a father-daughter pair of con artists, and occasionally worked with them. Sometime after, Roarke's father nearly kills him, and Summerset is the one to heal him. However, in Memory in Death, he says that after Summerset healed him, Roarke thought he was an easy target, and tried to steal from him, which Summerset quickly stopped. If Vengeance is true, it does not make any sense that Roarke would then try to steal from a man he had been working with, however it could also have been that Roarke targeted Summerset as a mark, and tried lull him into complacency by gaining his trust.

Merry Christmas with Love

2008-12-19T12:11:00.003+07:00

She leaned with her head on the window
Watching evergreen bend in the snow
Remembering Christmas the way it had been
So many seasons ago.

When children would reach for their stockings
And open the presents they found
The lights on the tree would shine bright in their eyes
Reflecting the love all around.

This year there's no one to open the gifts
No reason for trimming the tree
And just as a tear made it's way to the floor
She heard voices outside start to sing.

Merry Christmas to all who may dwell here
Merry Christmas if even just one
May the joy of the season surround you
Merry Christmas with love.

Carolers sang as she opened the door
Faces of friends in the crowd
And all of the shadows of lonely reminders
Driven away by the sound.

Now the heart that for years had been silent
Was suddenly filled with a song
As she clung to their hands like a child in the night
She found her self singing along.

Merry Christmas to all who may dwell here
Merry Christmas if even just one
May the joy of the season surround you
Merry Christmas.

Merry Christmas to all who may dwell here
Merry Christmas if even just one
May the joy of the season surround you
Merry Christmas with love

The Ten Commandments

2008-08-22T19:39:00.003+07:00

[Exodus 20:1-17]

Then God spoke all these words, saying, "I am the Lord your God, who brought you out of the land of Egypt, out of the house of slavery.

I. You shall have no other gods before Me.

II. You shall not make for yourself an idol, or any likeness of what is in heaven above or on the earth beneath or in the water under the earth. You shall not worship them or serve them; for I, the Lord your God, am a jealous God, visiting the iniquity of the fathers on the children, on the third and the fourth generations of those who hate Me, but showing loving kindness to thousands, to those who love Me and keep My commandments.

III. You shall not take the name of the Lord your God in vain, for the Lord will not leave him unpunished who takes His name in vain.

IV. Remember the sabbath day, to keep it holy. Six days you shall labor and do all your work, but the seventh day is a sabbath of the Lord your God; in it you shall not do any work, you or your son or your daughter, your male or your female servant or your cattle or your sojourner who stays with you. For in six days the Lord made the heavens and the earth, the sea and all that is in them, and rested on the seventh day; therefore the Lord blessed the sabbath day and made it holy.

V. Honor your father and your mother, that your days may be prolonged in the land which the Lord your God gives you.

VI. You shall not murder.

VII. You shall not commit adultery.

VIII. You shall not steal.

IX. You shall not bear false witness against your neighbor.

X. You shall not covet your neighbor's house; you shall not covet your neighbor's wife or his male servant or his female servant or his ox or his donkey or anything that belongs to your neighbor.

Ku t’lah miliki,
rasa indahnya perihku,

Sekalipun kau mengerti

Ku pikir ku salah mengertimu

Reff :
Ho~o aku,
hanya ingin kau tahu,
besarnya cintaku,
tingginya hayalku bersamamu

‘Tuk lalui,
waktu yang tersisa kini,
di setiap hariku,
di sisa akhir nafas hidupku
Oo..ho..oo.ho...

Walaupun semua,
hanya ada dalam mimpiku,
hanya ada dalam anganku,

Jokes: They are all the same

2008-07-29T12:24:00.003+07:00

One Chinese person walks into a bar in America late one night and he saw Steven Spielberg. As he was a great fan of his movies, he rushes over to him, and asks for his autograph.

Instead, Spielberg gives him a slap and says "You Chinese people bombed our Pearl Harbor, get out of here."

The astonished Chinese man replied "It was not the Chinese who bombed your Pearl Harbor , it was the Japanese".

"Chinese, Japanese, Taiwanese, you're all the same," replied Spielberg.

In return, the Chinese gives Spielberg a slap and says "You sank the Titanic; my forefathers were on that ship."

Shocked, Spielberg replies "It was the iceberg that sank the ship, not me."

The Chinese replies, "Iceberg, Spielberg, Carlsberg, you're all the same."

This particular joke won an award for the best joke in a competition in Britain

Worship: It Is Well

2008-06-29T14:55:00.001+07:00

When peace, like a river, attendeth my way,
When sorrows like sea billows roll;
Whatever my lot, Thou has taught me to say,
It is well, it is well, with my soul.
Refrain

It is well, with my soul,
It is well, with my soul,
It is well, it is well, with my soul.

Though Satan should buffet, though trials should come,
Let this blest assurance control,
That Christ has regarded my helpless estate,
And hath shed His own blood for my soul.

Refrain

My sin, oh, the bliss of this glorious thought!
My sin, not in part but the whole,
Is nailed to the cross, and I bear it no more,
Praise the Lord, praise the Lord, O my soul!

Refrain

For me, be it Christ, be it Christ hence to live:
If Jordan above me shall roll,
No pang shall be mine, for in death as in life
Thou wilt whisper Thy peace to my soul.

Refrain

But, Lord, ‘tis for Thee, for Thy coming we wait,
The sky, not the grave, is our goal;
Oh trump of the angel! Oh voice of the Lord!
Blessèd hope, blessèd rest of my soul!

Refrain

And Lord, haste the day when my faith shall be sight,
The clouds be rolled back as a scroll;
The trump shall resound, and the Lord shall descend,
Even so, it is well with my soul.

Refrain

Words: Horatio G. Spafford, 1873

Worship: In Christ Alone

2008-06-29T14:48:00.005+07:00

In Christ Alone

In Christ alone my hope is found;
He is my light, my strength, my song;
This cornerstone, this solid ground,
Firm through the fiercest drought and storm.
What heights of love, what depths of peace,
When fears are stilled, when strivings cease!
My comforter, my all in all—
Here in the love of Christ I stand.

In Christ alone, Who took on flesh,
Fullness of God in helpless babe!
This gift of love and righteousness,
Scorned by the ones He came to save.
Till on that cross as Jesus died,
The wrath of God was satisfied;
For ev'ry sin on Him was laid—
Here in the death of Christ I live.

There in the ground His body lay,
Light of the world by darkness slain;
Then bursting forth in glorious day,
Up from the grave He rose again!
And as He stands in victory,
Sin's curse has lost its grip on me;
For I am His and He is mine—
Bought with the precious blood of Christ.

No guilt in life, no fear in death—
This is the pow'r of Christ in me;
From life's first cry to final breath,
Jesus commands my destiny.
No pow'r of hell, no scheme of man,
Can ever pluck me from His hand;
Till He returns or calls me home—
Here in the pow'r of Christ I'll stand.

Venesia

2008-04-04T14:22:00.005+07:00

Setelah membaca novelnya Lucy Gordon - The Venetian Playboy's Bride, jadi ngebayangin mo ke Venesia... Ini buku pertama dari Counts of Calvani series. Jdl terjemahannya Belahan Jiwa Sang Playboy.

Sinopsis (Ind):
Guido Calvani---yang sedang mendayung gondola---terkejut ketika seorang wanita cantik melempar sepatu ke arahnya dan nyaris mengenai wajahnya. Wanita itu---Dulcie Maddox---ternyata putri seorang bangsawan Inggris yang sedang berlibur di Venesia dan, entah bagaimana, berhasil membuat Guido jatuh cinta dan ingin selalu melewatkan hari-hari bersamanya.

Guido sebenarnya bukan pendayung gondola---melainkan salah satu bangsawan paling kaya di Venesia. Meski begitu ia tidak memberitahu Dulcie tentang jati dirinya yang sesungguhnya, karena menyenangkan rasanya saat dirinyalah yang menjadi pusat perhatian Dulcie, bukan uang atau gelar kebangsawanannya.

Guido akhirnya menemukan sosok wanita yang selama ini ia cari dan memutuskan Dulcie adalah belahan jiwanya, sebelum mendapati bahwa ternyata selama ini Dulcie pun menyimpan rahasia yang menjungkirbalikkan hidupnya.

27/01/2008 Pak Harto mangkat

2008-01-28T19:28:00.000+07:00

Wah... Semalam jam 6 lebih sewaktu menyalakan TV, tiba-2 terdengar kata "Almarhum Pak Harto" padahal layarnya masih belum sepenuhnya tampil. Mam dan Papa langsung terpaku di depan TV, semua kegiatan (lagi beres-2 peralatan bikin kue buat imlek) berhenti.

Kalo mo bilang Indonesia berduka, kayaknya seh enggak deh. Mungkin 75% aja. Yang 25% mungkin lagi merayakan kematian Pak Harto.

Hari ini koran analisa 1 halaman depan penuh berita ttg mantan presiden ini. Koran Singapore Lien He juga memberitakan. Mungkin seluruh koran di dunia.

Sekarang pertanyaan yang terpikir hanya 1 masalah di benak... kasusnya Pak Harto GIMANA?

2. Apa yang mau membuat seseorang mau berpindah agama dan keyakinannya?
3. Mengapa seseorang yang dilanda cinta lupa akan segalanya seperti dirinya, keyakinannya?

Malam natal tgl 24 wa absen karena kecapekan, bukan karena kecapekan kerja berat ato ngangkut-2 barang lo, tp alasan kecapekan karena: NYASAR. Yap! Nyasar karena salah naik angkot bareng Awen..

Dari Medan Fair naik angkot no 12 jurusan Medan mal memang bener, tp yg kami naiki itu dah mo kembali ke pangkalan. Walah!!! Keliling 1/2 Medan, mana jalannya itu semua asing lagi, pemukiman org Indonesia, ngk nampak seorang pun Chinese... Waktu itu dah deg-2an, berdoa dalam hati... Oh, Tuhan!

Thanks God! Untung abangnya baik, dia jal balik ke jurusan Medan Mal.

How To Recruit The Right Person For Job?

2007-12-27T15:00:00.000+07:00

Put about 100 bricks in some particular order in a closed room with an open window. Then send 2 or 3 candidates in the room and close the door. Leave them alone and come back after 6 hours and then analyze the situation.

If they are counting the bricks. Put them in the Accounts Department.

If they are recounting them.. Put them in Auditing .

If they have messed up the whole place with the bricks. Put them in Engineering.

If they are arranging the bricks in some strange order. Put them in Planning.

If they are throwing the bricks at each other. Put them in Operations.

If they are sleeping. Put them in Security.

If they have broken the bricks into pieces. Put them in Information Technology.

If they are sitting idle. Put them in Human Resources.

If they say they have tried different combinations, yet Not a brick has Been moved. Put them in sales.

If they have already left for the day. Put them in Marketing.

If they are staring out of the window. Put them on Strategic Planning.

And then last but not least. If they are talking to each other and not a single brick has been moved, congratulate them and put them In Top Management.

Sandra Brown - Play Dirty (2007)

2007-10-01T11:49:00.000+07:00

After five long years in federal prison, Griff Burkett is a free man. But the disgraced Cowboys quarterback can never return to life as he knew it before he was caught cheating. In a place where football is practically a religion, Griff committed a cardinal sin, and no one is forgiving.

Foster Speakman, owner and CEO of SunSouth Airlines, and his wife, Laura, are a golden couple. Successful and wealthy, they lived a charmed life before fate cruelly intervened and denied them the one thing they wanted most -- a child. It's said that money can't buy everything. But it can buy a disgraced football player fresh out of prison and out of prospects. The job Griff agrees to do for the Speakmans demands secrecy. But he soon finds himself once again in the spotlight of suspicion.

An unsolved murder comes back to haunt him in the form of his nemesis, Stanley Rodarte, who has made Griff's destruction his life's mission. While safeguarding his new enterprise, Griff must also protect those around him, especially Laura Speakman, from Rodarte's ruthlessness. Griff stands to gain the highest payoff he could ever imagine, but cashing in on it will require him to forfeit his only chance for redemption...and love. Griff is now playing a high-stakes game, and at the final whistle, one player will be dead.

Play Dirty is Sandra Brown's wildest ride yet, with hairpin turns of plot all along the way. The clock is ticking down on a fallen football star, who lost everything because of the way he played the game. Now his future -- his life -- hinges on one last play.

When He rolls up His sleeves
He ain't just puttin' on the ritz
(our God is an awesome God)
There is thunder in His footsteps
And lightning in His fist
(our God is an awesome God)
Well, the Lord wasn't joking
When He kicked 'em out of Eden
It wasn't for no reason that He shed his blood
His return is very close and so you better be believing
that our God is an awesome God

REFRAIN
Our God(our God) is an awesome God
He reigns(He reigns) from heaven above
With wisdom(with wisdom) pow'r and love
our God is an awesome God

And when the sky was starless in the void of the night
(our God is an awesome God)
He spoke into the darkness and created the light
(our God is an awesome God)
Judgment and wrath he poured out on to Sodom
Mercy and grace He gave us at the cross
I hope that we have not too quickly forgotten that
our God is an awesome God

Refrain (x3)

Our God is an awesome God
Our God is an awesome God
(Our God is an awesome God)

Harlequin: Lynne Graham - Married by Arrangement

2007-09-19T11:32:00.000+07:00

Akhirnya.... akhirnya.... Setelah sekian lama menanti Harlequin karya Lynne Graham, impianku terpenuhi. Semalam Harlequin Indonesia menerbitkan karya Lynne Graham yg berjudul:

Married by Arrangement
Pernikahan Pura-Pura

Di mata Antonio Rocha, Sophie Cunningham bukanlah wanita baik-baik yang pantas mengasuh keponakannya. Dia semakin kaget ketika tahu bahwa wanita itu mengasuh keponakan perempuannya yang masih bayi di sebuah trailer! Dengan segera ia memutuskan untuk membawa bayi itu ke Spanyol. Sophie Cunningham sebenarnya masih memendam rasa sakit hati akibat penolakan Antonio 3 tahun yang lalu. Akan tetapi, satu-satunya jalan agar ia bisa tetap mengasuh keponakannya adalah dengan menerima tawaran pernikahan pura-pura dari Antonio. Pernikahan di mana ia harus membebaskan Antonio untuk berhubungan dengan wanita manapun yang dia inginkan. Akan tetapi, ketika Sophie menyadari bahwa dirinya telah jatuh cinta kepada Antonio, dia bertekad untuk melakukan apa pun untuk mempertahankan Antonio. Namun, apa akan dilakukan Sophie ketika dia dituduh menjebak Antonio untuk mendapatkan uang?

Spanish aristocrat Antonio Rocha viewed Sophie Cunningham as a common little tramp: she sported a tattoo, and was dragging up his orphaned baby niece in a caravan! But although she might not speak or live like a lady, Sophie did have plenty of love for a family of babies. And, contrary to his arrogant assumption, she was a virgin. Inexplicably attracted to Sophie, Antonio decided a marriage arrangement on his terms was the answer . . .

Advise for yourself

2007-09-03T16:11:00.000+07:00

1. Never explain yourself to any one. Because the eprson who likes you doesn't need it, and the person who dislikes you won't believe it.

Jangan pernah menerangkan siapa dirimu kepada siapapun. Sebab, orang yang menyukaimu tidak membutuhkannya, sedangkan orang yang tidak menyukaimu tidak mempercayainya.

2. When we wake up in the morning, we have two simple choice: Go back to sleep and dream, or wake up and chase those dreams.Choice is yours...

Di saat kita bangun di pagi hari, kita memiliki dua pilihan: Kembali tidur dan bermimpi atau bangun dan mengejar mimpi itu. Pilihannya ada di kita sendiri...

3. Don't make promise when you are in joy. Don't reply when you are sad. Don't take decision when you are angry.Think twice..., Act wise.

Jangan mengucap janji di saat kamu senang. Jangan menjawab di saat kamu sedih. Jangan mengambil keputusan di saat kamu marah. Berpikirlah dua kali, bersikaplah hati-hati.

4. When you keep saying you are busy, then you are never free.When you keep saying you have no time, then you will never have time.When you keep saying that you will do it tomorrow, then your tomorrow will never come.

Saat kamu tetap mengatakan kamu sibuk, kamu tidak akan pernah bebas. Saat kamu tetap mengatakan kamu tidak ada waktu, kamu tidak akan pernah punya waktu. Saat kamu tetap mengatakan bahwa kamu akan mengerjakannya besok, maka hari esokmu tidak akan pernah datang.

5. We make them cry who care for us. We cry for those who never care for us. And we care for those who will never cry for us.This is the truth of life, its strange but true. Once you realise this, its never too late to change.

Kita membuat orang-orang yang peduli pada kita menangis. Kita menangis untuk orang-orang yang tidak pernah perduli pada kita. Dan kita peduli pada orang-orang yang tidak pernah menangis untuk kita.Inilah kenyataan hidup, memang aneh tapi nyata. Begitu kamu menyadarinya, tidak ada kata terlambat untuk berubah.

6. Time is like a river. You cannot touch the same water twice, because the flow that has passed will never pass again.Enjoy every moment of life...

Waktu seperti sungai. Kamu tidak bisa menyentuh dua kali di air yang sama, karena arus yang telah berlalu tidak akan pernah datang.
