ku ingin kau tahu, ku ingin kau selalu
dekat denganmu setiap hariku
sudahkah kau yakin untuk mencintaiku?????
ku ingin hanya satu tuk selamanyaku tak melihat dari sisi sempurnamu
tak peduli kelemahanmu
yang ada aku jatuh cinta karena hatimu
cintaku tak pernah memandang siapa kamu
tak pernah menginginkan kamu lebih
dari apa adanya dirimu selalu
cintaku terasa sempurna karena hatimu
selalu menerima kekuranganku
sungguh indah cintaku

Malaikat Hujan
Kami selalu bertemu saat hujan, hanya saat hujan. Ketika gerimis menari perlahan, ketika rintik kecil itu berubah menjadi deras, maka kami saling bertemu, dengan tatapan gerah, dengan senyum merekah. Tentu kami kedinginan saat sibuk berpeluk. Kami juga tidak menentukan waktu untuk bertemu yang jelas saat hujan deras, dia sudah ada disitu, dengan lengannya yang terbuka lebar untuk memelukku. Dan, tanpa kurencanakan pun, saat hujan, aku pasti sudah disitu, menunggu dia menghampiriku dengan pelukan hangatnya, dengan desah lirihnya.
Aku benci akhir-akhir ini hujan selalu datang tak menentu, kadang siang, kadang malam, kadang pagi, kadang senja. Aku meradang, aku dan dia tak punya banyak kesempatan untuk saling memandanga. Lagipula, kenapa aku harus begitu frustasi karena kita tak bisa terlalu sering bertemu lagi? Bukankah aku juga tak pernah tahu namanya? Bukankah aku juga tak tahu bagaimana wajah jelasnya? Bukankah sebenarnya aku tak mengetahui siapa dia? Kenapa aku begitu merindukan pertemuan, walau mungkin dia tidak merindukan sebuah pertemuan? Aku merenung sesaat, kenapa aku begitu terpaku pada fatamorgana?
Akhirnya, hujanpun menjatuhkan rambut mayangnya ke bumi dengan bongkahan rintik-rintik kecil yang menjamu mata telanjang yang menyaksikannya. Aku tersenyum lebar, aku akan segera menemukan dia, malaikat hujan. Dia akan kembali memelukku, dengan kedua lengannya yang hangat. Aku menunggu hujan semakin deras, kulihat dia ada di ujung jalan, kali ini dia tidak menghampiriku segera, sepertinya dia juga tidak mencariku, dengan langkah gontai, aku menghampirinya, aku kedinginan.
“Hey! Kenapa tidak langsung menghampiriku?” Tanpa jawaban dan pengungkapan, dia langsung memelukku. Kami saling bisu, malu-malu karena lama tak bertemu. Dia memang tidak pernah berkata sepatah katapun, dia hanya berbicara lewat peluknya, lewat kedua lengannya.
“Aku merindukanmu! Mengapa kau tidak segera menjawab pertanyaanku? Kemana saja kamu?” Suara parauku beradu dengan irama deras hujan, menambah sinyal kekesalan, dalam peluknya, dia masih membisu.
“Aku tidak menemukan orang sepertimu dalam dunia nyata.” Ucapku lesu, merintikan hujan baru dari pelupuk mataku, air mata.
“Aku juga tak menemukan orang sepertimu dalam dunia fatamorganaku.” Tungkasnya lirih dengan gemeretak giginya. Dia kedinginan.
Cukup dengan pelukan, hanya dengan pelukan, kami saling berbicara lewat pelukan. Sesekali dia mencium keningku, melumat bibirku, lalu kembali memelukku. Kami hanya terdiam, kami hanya membisu, kami memang tak saling tahu, kami bahkan tak pernah tahu mengapa Tuhan merencanakan kami untuk saling bertemu. Yang kutahu, aku selalu menunggu hujan, hanya untuk menemuinya, entah apa yang dia tahu, karena aku pun masih belum bisa membaca pikirannya. Yang kumengerti, kami memang tak selalu bertemu apalagi saling bertatap mata, hanya saat hujan, kami bisa menyatu, aku dan dia menjadi kita dalam satu pelukan yang diciptakan hujan. Saat itu, hanya awan kelabu yang kami lihat. Selalu kelabu pun tak apa-apa, asal dia ada dipelukku, itu saja.
Bagiku, tak penting bagaimana seseorang saling bertemu dan memandang. Tak penting juga berapa lama waktu yang dibutuhkan untuk saling berbicara lalu terdiam. Semua aspek dan teori tentang cinta menjadi sangat tidak penting, ketika dia yang ingin kutemui sudah berada di depan mataku. Bahkan, dalam kebisuaan sekalipun, kami bisa saling berbicara dan berkata rindu. Bahkan, hanya dalam pelukan semaya-mayanya sekalipun, kami bisa saling mencintai dan melindungi. Karena kebisuan tak selalu berarti benar-benar bisu, karena satu pelukan tak berarti dia akan melepas lengannya dari bahuku.
Aku suka berbicara dengan hujan. Aku suka merindukan seseorang yang bahkan tak kuketahui wajahnya. Aku mencintai dia yang sulit untuk Kucintai. Nyatanya, aku suka, ada yang salah?
Aku Minta Sembuh, Ibu
Sebuah percakapan kecil, seorang ibu dan anaknya yang menderita Guillain-Barre Syndrome
“Kenapa aku tidak boleh menangis, Ibu?” Tanyanya lugu kepada ibunya.
“Karena kalau kamu tidak menangis, ibu akan memberimu hadiah, apapun yang kamu mau, apapun yang kau suka.” Jawab ibunya dengan nada meyakinkan. Anaknya masih saja memperhatikan tatapan lembut ibunya.
“Benarkah? Ibu akan memberiku segalanya?” Dengan wajah tak percaya, anaknya kembali menanyakan persoalan yang sama.
“Ya, ibu akan memberimu apapun yang kamu mau. Satu lagi, menangis akan membuat kamu sulit untuk sembuh, Nak.” Jawab ibunya dengan sabar, beliau membelai lembut rambut anaknya.
“Kalau aku meminta kesembuhan, apakah ibu akan menghadiahkannya untukku?”
Ibunya hanya menatap lemas kekasih kecilnya yang sangat dia cintai, giginya gemeretak.
“Itu adalah hadiah yang hanya bisa diberikan Tuhan, Sayang. Ibu hanya bisa mencintaimu, bukan menyembuhkanmu. Maaf, ibu manusia dan terbatas.”
with love :)

I guess he does not care how the lady feels.
I cannot believe for the second time this guy and I had made plans to do something and he never texted or called me to cancel. I finally had to text him in blackberry messengger him and ask him if he was still angry to me or not.
But, He always gives the same excuse that he had a rough week a mid term test and wants to just rest.
He is prone to panic attacks and I wonder if the anxiety is too much for him when he starts thinking about the date.
He could at least have the courtesy to call and cancel.
I was all dressed and ready to married him for the rest of my life. But, How disappointed I was.
I guess he is not in my little black book any more. I just think this is down right rude of a guy.
I would rather him to have called and cancelled before all the preparation was ready to begin.
I guess he does not care how the lady feels.

Cerita Cinta Berakhir Disini .. -.-
"Will someone please call a surgeon who can crack my ribs and repair this broken heart?'" -
Selama ini, kita percaya bahwa cinta adalah hal terkuat di dunia.
Apapun bs dikalahkannya.
OMONG KOSONG.
Cinta adalah penipuan terbesar yang pernah diciptakan oleh umat manusia.
Mungkin,kita sudah terlalu sering dibuai oleh dongeng indah ttg sepasang anak manusia yg berbeda satu sama lain,tetapi dapat bersatu mengatasi segala rintangan di akhir cerita.Apa sih yang skrng bs disatukan oleh cinta? Kaya-miskun. Tua-muda. Cacat-normal . Manusia-binatang. Manusia- alien. Semua bs bersatu karena cinta.
Bahkan, Imajinasi manusia pun semakin kreatif. Sekarang rintangan bagi dua sejoli agar dapat bersatu dalam cinta bukan hanya ibu tiri yg jahat,tapi kehidupan itu sendiri pun di anggap sebagai salah satu penghambat. Jadi, jika ingin cinta yang abadi, musnahkan saja kehidupan itu. Bunuh diri saja dan cinta akan hidup abadi meskipun tidak berada dalam raga manusia. . Manusia boleh mati , tetapi cinta hidup selamanya . Itu kan, yg di sampaikan lewat omong kosong klasik seperti Romeo and Juliet?
Ha-ha. Andai saja semudah itu.
sampai kapan pun,eksistensi "cinta sejati" akan selalu mengundang pertanyaan. Dalam mencari tau asal usulnya,kita takkan memperoleh suatu kesimpulan yg memuaskan. sama saja dengan mencari pantat ular.
Kemungkinan pertama: seseorng akan menjawab,'Well, cinta sejati memang ada" Namun-dalam penjelasannya pun tetap ada 'namun-nya---, ' cinta' itu berada di suatu tempat yang jauh di alam yg sama sekali tidak bs di tangkap oleh akal pikiran. Ia hanya bs di pahami oleh bagian tersuci dari jiwa dan raga manusia, yaitu HATI ..Jadi hanya orng2 yg punya hatilah yg bs merasakan 'CINTA'
Oke,wow,bravo!! Penjelasan yg bagus. Jadi sekarang pelaku utama adalah HATI,Heh?
Kemungkinan kedua:'cinta sejati itu tidak ada'"Tetapi,justru disinilah susahnya.Otak manusia memimpikan sesuatu yg tidak nyata sehingga menciptakan bayangan sendiri,seolah-olah bayangan itulah nyataa. Hanya orng bodoh yang menganggap hantu adalah sesuatu yg nyata, kan ? tetapi, karena saking seringnya orng membicarakannya, lama-kelamaan hantu pun seolah-olah " benar-benar" nyata dan banyak orng mengaku telah melihatnya sekalipun yg mereka lihat hanyalah bayangan dari dalam pohon yg melambai dalam gelap.. Dalam hal ini, seperti itulah nasib teman kita, si ' cinta sejati'. Ia tak lebih dari sekedar bayangan yg di anggap nyata oleh jutaan orng sehingga akhirnya menjadi dongeng di dalam buku dan televisi . Dari Cinderella , hingga romeo and juliet , kisah picisan selalu diceritakan turun temurun hingga akhirnya , dari waktu ke waktu , manusia beranggapan bahwa 'cinta sejati ' itu memang ada ..
Sekarang,saatnya untuk memilih mana yang mau kita percaya.
Jika seseorng bertanya padaku., aku memilih kemungkinan kedua.
Ya,aku meyakini bahwa 'cinta' hanyalah sesuatu yang semu.
Hanya saja kita kadang terhanyut dan terpesona di dalam tipuan bayangan nya.
Percayalah, jika dihadapakan dengan kenyataan, kekuatan yg semua orng selalu bangga2 kan dr 'cinta sejati' itu tak akan kunjung muncul ..
Orang bilang ' cinta ' bisa mengalahkan segalanya.
OMONG KOSONG !!
Aku telah melihat sesuatu yang tak bs di kalahkannya.
JARAK ..
itu lah yg tidak bs dia kalahkan !
" cinta " tak bs mempersatukan mereka yang jauh . Padahal itu lah tugas cinta ..

Sungguh,saya akan berhenti mengeluh ..
PS; Saya mencintai nya dengan tulus.. dia yang mungkin hanya akan menjadi seorang teman saja tanpa banyak harapan kepadanya, saya akan mencoba untuk ikhlas dan setia..
Dari saya untuk kamu,
saya mencintai mu dengan kesadaran penuh ketika saya terjatuh dan merintih sendu
Dari saya untuk kamu,
cinta itu tumbuh perlahan disaat saya ragu dan memohon sujud kepada sang maha kuasa siapa jodoh dalam skenario cinta dan rindu
Dari saya untuk kamu,
sebuah kejujuran dan getaran hati ini ketika saya harus berjauhan dengan kamu. saya rapuh. saya semakin jatuh.
Dari saya untuk kamu,
kini saat nya saya hanya bisa memuja dan melihat kamu bahagia, mungkin dengan wanita pilihan dalam hidup baru mu
Dari saya untuk kamu,
kita ini sebenarnya satu, tapi saya? saya terlambat dan tidak pernah sadar akan adanya 'kamu' dahulu.
Dari saya untuk kamu,
ah.. terlalu banyak hal tersimpan di otak yang tak mampu untuk di tumpu.. kamu membuat saya ragu.
sungguh saya ini terlalu, saya akan coba untuk berhenti mengeluh.

Dear Diary :)
Dear diary
Something good happened today
He finally call me by my name
I didn't know how to behave
What to say or do
I was so confused
Dear diary
I wanna talk to him again
But whenever he is with his friends
He keeps trying to pretend
But I already see
The way he feels for me
What can I do?
Tell me what can I say
When do I let him know I feel the same way?
How can my feelings be so hard to show when
I really want him to know
Dear diary
I figured I'm part of his plans
But now I'm in his heart
I don't know where to start
You're my secret hiding place
Where my private thoughts are safe
And just one look and he will see
What's inside of me

A Letter for Girls
Surat ini ditulis oleh seorang pria (yang membuatnya jadi sangat menarik, karena kita jadi bisa mengerti hal ini dari sudut pandang seorang pria)
I highlighted some key points of this letter. Some parts of this letter may surprise you (like what it did to me :p), because those things have never crossed your mind. But, don't worry, because that's why this letter was written... to open your eyes! :)
Dear Girls,
There are two kinds of men: Godly men, and worldly men.
What kind of man do you want?
I’m betting most of you said “a Godly man.”
Someday, you want to marry a man who loves God with every fiber of his being
because he will be an excellent husband and father.
He will honor and be true only to you.
Most women want a Godly man or at least think they do.
Well, I think I have found a way to tell you exactly what kind of guy you will get.
I don’t even have to know you! All I have to do is look at you.
The kind of guy you want or will get is advertised by the clothing you wear.
I know what men want. Trust me, I am a guy. I know more guys than you do and I know them better.
I know what we think, what we talk about, what we want, and what we look for,
and it is different for each one of us depending on our relationship with God.
I’m sure you already know this, but men were created differently than you.
We have different desires and priorities.
Our eyes and minds react very differently to some things than yours do.
It isn’t disgusting, perverted, or wrong; it is wonderful and good!
It is how God made us. It’s how we handle these differences that separate a Godly man from a worldly man.
A worldly man doesn’t control himself, rather, he looks at anything that attracts his attention or gets him excited. A worldly guy has no problem when girls wear clothes that show off skin, like boxers, high or low-cut shirts, low-rise jeans, and “cute” little swim-suits.
He’s a fan of tight-fitting shirts and pants that show off your form, he thinks they’re fine!
Worldly guy watches a lot of TV and R-rated movies, isn’t really offended by sexual content or nudity and secretly dabbles in pornography. He’s a “Christian” and makes up a significant portion of your church and youth group. He’s a really nice guy and sees you mainly for your body.
If you were to marry worldly guy, he’d bring lots of baggage into the relationship, have intimacy problems, entertain thoughts of other women, and possibly cheat on you.
A Godly man is in control of his drives and desires.
He constantly seeks God and reads his Bible.
He “walks in the Spirit” and isn’t set off by everything he sees.
When immodestly-dressed girls, magazine covers, or risqué advertisements come into view, Godly guy quickly “bounces his eyes” away from the image.
He’s constantly guarding his thoughts and what he allows into his mind.
He hates being around girls that disrespect him and his struggles by wearing inappropriate attire.
Godly guy doesn’t watch much TV and is selective about the movies he sees.
He views you as a person, knows you and respects you.
He has your best interests in mind and guards against inappropriate thoughts of you.
If you were to marry Godly guy, he would give you the emotional attention you need,
he would ignore other women and remain faithful to you no matter what.
Unfortunately, there are more worldly men than Godly men.
And to make matters worse, to the untrained eye, a worldly man can look a lot like a Godly man.
So what can you do to only attract a Godly man?
An important way of delineating between them lies in how you dress.
As mentioned before, the clothes you wear advertise what kind of guy you are looking for.
If you dress immodestly, you will attract worldly guys and scare away the Godly ones.
It all comes down to the kind of man you want to spend your time around and eventually marry.
You cannot afford to be complacent in this area of your life!
You will pay the price someday.
This issue isn’t limited strictly to you and your future relationship.
The way you dress directly affects other men and women and their relationships.
You don’t see the struggles, the pain, the tears and the sin that you cause, but I can promise that you would be shocked if you did!
Ask any Christian young man; we’ve all seen it. It’s kept hidden but it is definitely there.
By dressing immodestly, you effectually spit on the struggles of our weaker ranks, appearing to care more about toying with us than helping us.
You’ll never know how many broken relationships and lifestyles of sin you’ve contributed to simply by the way you dress.
You want to marry a Godly man someday, well so do many other women.
Don’t just help yourself and your future, help all women and their relationships by showing discretion in your dress.
Of course, I understand the desire to look stylish, attractive, and “cute.”
It’s important to fit in and get attention. Trust me, it can be done modestly!
I also understand that it is easier for some girls to find stylish and well-fitting clothes than it is for others.
This is an area where guys really don’t understand what you are up against.
But just remember, for every sacrifice you make to honor God with your image, Godly men are making sacrifices in their lives that are just as hard, if not harder!
They will and do respect you so much for choosing to be modest!
A real lady is conscientious of the image she presents, and real men want a real lady.
And you can forget about any guys missing out on how attractive you are because you don’t wear revealing clothing.
You could wear a circus tent and we would still know; it’s a gift we have.
And so the question still remains:
What kind of man do you want?
Answer me with your clothes.

Please don't go.. And never leave me alone :'(
I love you.
It's not a love that is simply a heightened emotion rising and falling over time and events. Not a love based on physical attraction that gradually fades away. Not a love that demands or even asks to be loved in return.
my love for you is utterly different.
It is patient. It waits in hope that one day it can be fully expressed but has no expectations. my love for you is permanent. It has never faded over time but continues to grow. my love wants your happiness, but knows that happiness is not given, only received. my love hurts when you suffer and is concerned :(, but knows your character is growing through your trials.
In the same moment of time my love for you knows the greatest joy and ecstasy being in your presence and the deepest sorrow and pain from not being fully realized. From the beginning there has been only two possibilities: mutual love between us or being permanently alone.
And so I'll wait in hopes that my love can be fully expressed.
So that I won’t be permanently alone.
Without you :'(
Orang itu kamu ...
"Cinta itu butuh pengorbanan, tau gak?"
"iya aku tau.. aku kan udah sering ngorbanin cinta aku, bahkan hati aku"
"iya, cinta sejati itu memang berkorban, dan yakin deh..
seiring berjalannya waktu rasa cinta itu akan hilang dengan sendiri nya kok nanti.. "
"enggak, cinta sejati itu gak akan pernah hilang, dia tetap kesimpen dalam hati. karena cinta sejati itu bukan cinta yang melalui proses singkat. tapi.. cinta yang datang secara perlahan melalui pendekatan yang lama tanpa di duga. dia akan tetap disitu sampai kapanpun"
"wuih.. berat ya bahasa nya.. "
"iya lah.. karena itu lah aku gak akan nyerah buat nungguin cinta sejati aku"
"iya, sabar aja..nanti pasti akan datang.."
"iya, dan orang itu kamu."
"........"
Cinta itu kamu :)
Ada cinta di dalam hati yang kupendam selama ini
Cinta itu adalah dirimu
Ku selalu mendekatimu dan selalu menginginkanmu
Namun engkau tak mudah ku taklukkan hatinya
Ku ingin jadi pacarmu bagaimana caranya
Agar ku bisa menyentuh hatimu yang terdalam
Aku jatuh cinta padamu dan berharap mendapatkanmu
Cinta itu adalah dirimu
Ku selalu mendekatimu dan selalu menginginkanmu
Namun engkau tak mudah ku taklukkan hatinya
Ku ingin jadi pacarmu bagaimana caranya
Agar ku bisa menyentuh hatimu yang terdalam
Aku jatuh cinta padamu dan berharap mendapatkanmu

Keseimbangan hidup
Lagi pengen ngebahas tentang hidup malam ini :)
Kata orang, hidup itu seperti roda . Kadang kita ada di atas, kadang juga kita ada di bawah
Kata Forrest Gump, hidup bagai sekotak coklat, entah rasa apa yang bakal kita dapetin ..
Dan menurut gue ...
Hidup itu kayak judi bola,
karena lo nggak akan pernah tau akan menang atau kalah. waktu sebuah permainan sedang berjalan dengan sangat baik, di detik terakhir bisa aja pihal lawan yang nyetak gol, dan kita kalah, padahal udh yakin banget bakal menang.
Hidup itu kayak cuaca. Hari ini bisa hujan,besok bisa cerah. Tapi lo nggak akan punya hujan selamanya, atau kemarau selamanya.
Kita butuh pahit dan manis secara bersamaan, sebuah bentuk keseimbangan.
Anggep aja kayak kopi :)
Gue pribadi percaya banget sama konsep keseimbangan hidup ..
Menurut gue, nggak ada orang yang bisa seratus persen bahagia, nggak ada orang juga yang seratus persen sedih. Hidup itu kan penuh emosi. makanya kadang dalam satu periode waktu kita bisa ngerasain berbagai emosi berbaur menjadi satu. Karena itu kita jadi seimbang ..
Misalnya : sedih,kecewa tapi juga senang :) bingung, marah , lega, kesel, kaget, sedih , Senang, ngerasa bersalah bingung dan marah :) .
Keseimbangan yang bener bener aneh bukan ??
with love :)
-Mbem-

Hidup itu kayak cuaca. Hari ini bisa hujan,besok bisa cerah. Tapi lo nggak akan punya hujan selamanya, atau kemarau selamanya.
Kita butuh pahit dan manis secara bersamaan, sebuah bentuk keseimbangan.
Anggep aja kayak kopi :)
Gue pribadi percaya banget sama konsep keseimbangan hidup ..
Menurut gue, nggak ada orang yang bisa seratus persen bahagia, nggak ada orang juga yang seratus persen sedih. Hidup itu kan penuh emosi. makanya kadang dalam satu periode waktu kita bisa ngerasain berbagai emosi berbaur menjadi satu. Karena itu kita jadi seimbang ..
Misalnya : sedih,kecewa tapi juga senang :) bingung, marah , lega, kesel, kaget, sedih , Senang, ngerasa bersalah bingung dan marah :) .
Keseimbangan yang bener bener aneh bukan ??
with love :)

A Tale of Sunflower
Many people regard rose as a flower that symbolizes love. Yes, I do regard rose as one of the most romantic flower too. Yet still sunflower attracts me the most. And this is the story of the brightest flower you'll ever seen on this earth...
Some people say that love finds its happiness when it becomes mutual sharing of the two sides. Yet I wonder how could I find the strength to endure it one-side only?
It started with one gaze. He is so bright and tall. He has huge responsibility to take care of all the living things of this earth. When he sleeps, the earth cries. The light has gone, the darkness comes. Yet as the time passes, he will rise again to lighten every heart who embraces him in the morning until the slumber time comes again. I will always smile when he rises up and take my position to ... simply stare at him.
Sometimes I wonder, will he ever notice? Will he ever care? Yet I chose to keep gazing at him all day. I wish I will keep growing taller so that I can get closer and closer to him. Yes ... I definately grow much taller among other kind of flowers, yet we are still so much far apart from one another... #deep sigh.
There are times when I feel tired. His shine is so bright til it melts my body. There are moments when I am tempted to turn my body away from him. Just a moment ... to take a momentary cool breeze air. Yet my heart never stops whispering, "Stay." And I chose to follow my heart no matter what. So here I am ... still staring at him.
Some say that love is not about demanding, it is about giving and giving and giving. So is my love not real when I demand his response? Is there something wrong in my love for him? Will I still love him when he does not love me back? Will I stay when he turns away?
Yes ... I was wrong. I suppose not to use him to fill my selfish needs. I should not demand him to care for me only and neglect other living things that need him as well. So I chose to do my part and stop wishing his response. I wait on him day by day to rise up and ... stare at him tirelessly ... faithfully.
Now my head has grown bigger and heavier. My head bows down for I carry a lot of seeds waiting to be poured out. I cannot lift up my head as I used to do everyday to stare at him. It grieves me a lot. Yet I still try to turn my body towards him. Hey sun, don't worry. I am still here ... waiting for you.
As the time goes by, I cannot hold my head any longer. I guess it is time ... to die. The seeds on my head start to fall on the ground. There are hundreds of them! As I watch them being poured out ... I see a ray of hope. Hey ... this seeds will surely grow to become like me! Yes I will die, but there are hundreds more sunflowers who will continue waiting and staring at the sun. I am relieved.
Then... the sunflower withered and died. Yet new hundreds of sunflower are on the way to replace her position. There the story goes over and over again. Faithfulness has no end.
The sunflower realizes that happiness does not come only when love comes from both sides. She makes her own happiness by loving her sun no matter what and without demanding anything in return. A love that is so pure, so selfless ... If a sunflower can be faithful to its sun, why can't we be faithful to our soulmate?
Yet this is not the end of the story. Although the sunflower thinks that she is the one who loves and her sun does not notice her, the truth is ... the sun loves her too ... deeply, immensely, intentionally, faithfully. The sun loves her in the way that she does not understand. The sun loves her secretly by giving his sunshine to be the strength of the sunflower to grow. As the sunflower grows nearer to him, so does the sun draws nearer to her. Yet the sun realizes that there is still a distance need to be kept. For it will burn out the sunflower if they are getting too close. It hurts the sun to keep a distance with his loved ones, yet he has to. He denies himself and prioritize his beloved's life more than his love. The sun values the sunflower so much ... and this is just the way he loves her. The sun is faithful and kind. And their love actualy meets as they keep being faithful and staring to each other.
We are the sunflowers. God is the sun. There are many times we feel we are not loved, we are abandoned, we are alone. Yet God is always there. He loves us in a way that we don't always understand. But the truth is ... God is always by our sides. He is always ready to lift you up at the darkest moment in your life. And our part is ... simply stare at him. Love him. Imitate him. The sunflower reflects the sun by her appearance. Her bright yellow color and lovely shape simply reflects her loved ones. So does as we stare at God every moment in our lives, soon we are going to become like him. Yes we do have a distance physically with God. We are human, He is God. Yet our love meets in the heart. It grows in the ground of trust and commitment.
Commitment takes a decision to make and faithfulness to carry it on. And faithfulness has no end.
So, will you be my sunflower? -God-

The Story of Us

Here is a love story
Written not by impulse of man nor woman
Which is hard to believe
and hard to comprehend
Yet it does exist and it lasts
Began with a sincere words of prayer
Marked by honor and purity
Tested by time and patience
Mocked by the world yet faithfully endures
Eyes haven't met, yet hearts have joined
The reserved space for the first and the last
We're sleeping underneath the same big sky
Wondering when, wondering how ...
The encounter of two souls will come true
Running with eyes fixed on the Author
Trust and surrender to the loving ones
Bitter at first, sweet at last
Such a delight in waiting His plan prevails
The joy in giving without demanding
To the one who is in distant future
No worry, no fear
This is faith, this is true love
There will come a day, an hour
When the angel dances and the earth sings
The moment the eyes met
It will be kismet
With a great love for God and a love for others
Forever it surely will last
