Mengerti dengan Hati

 Ada banyak hal yang belum sempat aku ucapkan buat mama

Mungkin lebih karena belum ada dalam hati dan benak

Karena aku belum mengerti ada seribu makna dari sebuah ucapan

Dan juga sejuta arti dari sebuah tindakan

Saat dewasa, saat lebih kaya akan makna & rasa

Memori lama terpanggil, tanya yang dulu terjawab

Mengerti akan arti sebuah kata

Sayang ...

Takut terluka ...

Ingin melindungi ...

Putus asa ...

Ada rasa yang hilang ...

Melepaskan ...

Berharap ...

Mengerti dengan hati ...

Sahabat Sejati

Teman untuk bersenang-senang mudah didapat

Teman yang selalu ada saat kita susah itulah sahabat

Sahabat sejati dapat diuji saat kita melewati lembah kekelaman

Dia akan mengulurkan tangannya untuk menolong kita

Dia akan memberikan telinganya untuk mendengar kita

Dia akan memberikan bahunya untuk memeluk kita

Dia akan memberikan penghiburan bukan penghakiman

Dia akan memberikan kekuatan bukan tuduhan

Dia hanya bisa memberi senyuman bukan ejekan

Dia akan selalu ada buatku, saat suka maupun duka

Itu hanya aku temukan dalam Diri Sahabat Sejatiku....

YESUS KRISTUS

Taburkan pemikiran,
Anda akan menuai tindakan;
Taburkan tindakan,
Anda akan menuai kebiasaan;
Taburkan kebiasaan,
Anda akan menuai karakter;
Taburkan karakter,
Anda akan menuai tujuan hidup


Samuel Smiles

Children Learn What They Live

If children live with critism, they learn to condemn.
If children live with hostility, they learn to fight.
If children live wit fear, they learn to be apprehensive.
If children live with pity, they learn to feel sorry for themselves.
If children live with ridicule, they learn to feel shy.
If children live with jealousy, they learn to feel envy.
If children live with shame, they learn to feel guilty.

If children live with encouragement, they learn confidence.
If children live with tolerance, they learn patience.
If children live with praise, they learn appreciation.
If children live with acceptance, they learn to love.
If children live with approval, they learn to like themselves.
If children live with recognition, they learn it is good to have a goal.
If children live with sharing, they learn generosity.
If children live with honesty, they learn truthfulness.
If children live with fairness, they learn justice.
If children live with kindness and consideration, they learn respect.
If children live with security, they learn to have faith in themselves and in those about them.
If children live with friendliness, they learn the world is a nice place in which to live.

If I Had My Child to Raise All Over Again

If I had my child to raise all over again,
I’d build self esteem first and the house later.
I’d finger paint more and point the finger less.
I would do less correcting and more connecting.
I’d take my eyes off my watch and watch with my eyes.
I would care to know less and know to care more.
I’d take more hikes and fly more kites.
I’d stop playing seriously and seriously play.
I would run through more fields and gaze at more stars.
I’d do more hugging and less nagging.
I’d see the oak tree in the acorn more often.
I would be firm less often and affirm much more.
I’d model less about the love of power…
And more about the power of love.”

To Be Educated

If I can learn My ABCs, can read 600 words per minute, and
can write with perfect penmanship,
but have not been shown how to communicate with the Designer of all language,
I have not been educated.

If I can deliver an eloquent speech and persuade you with my stunning logic,
but have not been instructed in God's wisdom,
I have not been educated.

If I have read Shakespeare and John Locke and
can discuss their writings with keen insight,
but have not read the greatest of all books-the Bible- and
have not knowledge of it as personal importance,
I have not been educated.

If I have memorized addition facts,
multiplication tables, and chemical formulas,
but have never been disciplined to hide God's Word in my heart,
I have not been educated.

If I can explain the law of gravity and Einstein's theory of relativity,
but have never been instructed in the unchangeable laws
of the One Who orders our universe,
I have not been educated.

If I can play the piano, the violin, six other instruments and
can write music that moves men to tears,
but have not been taught to listen to the Director of the universe and worship Him,
I have not been educated.

If I graduate from high school with a perfect 4.0 and
am accepted at the best university with a full scholarship,
but have not been guided into a career of God's choosing for me,
I have not been educated.

However, if one day I see the world as God sees it and come to know Him,
Whom to know is life eternal, and glorify God by fulfilling His purpose for me,
then I have been educated.
