Untuk Seseorang Yang Tak Pernah Kumiliki

Di saat pedihku
Di saat kesendirianku
Di saat tersudutkan
Di saat ketakutan

Terima kasih,
Terima kasih,
Terima kasih,
Karena engkau tak ada di sana.

Kubutuhkan pundakmu,
kubutuhkan telingamu,
Kubutuhkan waktumu,
Kubutuhkan sentuhanmu.

Untuk sembuhkan luka hatiku,
Untuk ringankan langkahkan,
Untuk teguhkan aku,
Untuk luruskan jalanku.

Terima kasih untuk pergimu
di saat terberat dalam hidupku
Terima kasih untuk tanggung jawab
yang kau letakkan di atas pundak rapuh ini.

Untuk seorang yang tak pernah kumiliki
untuk seorang yang tak pernah bimbing aku
untuk seorang yang tak pernah mengerti kebutuhanku
untuk seorang yang hadir sekejap kemudian lenyap.

Terima kasih, terima kasih, terima kasih
Wahai, seorang yang tak pernah kumiliki....

Kutulis dari hatiku yang hancur,
mengenang angka 62 yang seharus terjadi.

Dirgahayu wahai seorang yang tak pernah kumiliki.

Golden Rules of Listening

As life's turned wild, we tend to go wild as well. Life is getting more and more uneasy. It's worsened as people turn ignorant and selfish. We do need others to lighten our burdens.
We might know not that helping others to make life bearable isn't always a matter of giving your hands and head,or even money.
It is very often one needs listeners instead of a helping hand or brilliant solution. People are running after the time and don't have a quiet and relaxed time just to sit back and share life with others.
In this restless time may we still have time for others simply to listen to them.
Here are some tips to help us to be good listeners.
1. Put your mobile away, so nothing will disturb your togetherness with your friend.
There is a saying "mendekatkan yang jauh, menjauhkan yang dekat" that's what a mobile do.
2. Listen with your heart, not only with your ears.
For this you need your eyes look deeply into his/her heart. You will feel what they feel,and have an empathy toward them. So, keep eye contact.
3. Sometimes, it is necessary to ask some questions toward what your partner's said. Those questions trigger him to take their burdens out of his mind.It is very often someone keeps their real problem on their mind and let it depress them.
4. Don't let your mind make pre-assumption that leads you to having your own point of view and trying to influence people with it.
5. Some people might only need a listener, not a problem solver. Therefore, keep yourself from giving to much suggestion
6. This is important. Be a good secret keeper. One's trust on someone else comes just once.

But above all, if none in this world can be your good listener best friend, we still have one great best friend, Jesus.

What a friend we have in Jesus,
all our sins and griefs to bear!
What a privilege to carry
everything to God in prayer!
O what peace we often forfeit,
O what needless pain we bear,
all because we do not carry
everything to God in prayer.

Have we trials and temptations?
Is there trouble anywhere?
We should never be discouraged;
take it to the Lord in prayer.
Can we find a friend so faithful
who will all our sorrows share?
Jesus knows our every weakness;
take it to the Lord in prayer.

Are we weak and heavy laden,
cumbered with a load of care?
Precious Savior, still our refuge;
take it to the Lord in prayer.
Do thy friends despise, forsake thee?
Take it to the Lord in prayer!
In his arms he'll take and shield thee;
thou wilt find a solace there.

Light of My Life

I walked through my path easily
as it was bright
i could see what in front of me
either stones or just pebbles
never i stumbled on my journey

Life spins at it reaches its lowest point now
as everything around me is so dark
Darkness surrounds me
and keeps me away from seeing even good things

I never knew what darkness was,
yet since you left me,
that light also went away with you,
what left is just that darkness

I understand now
you shone my life
you're the light my life
you warmed me with your light

The light and the heat you showed me
really made my life bearable
it's all cold and dark now
and unbearable

No matter what, mom
thanks for being the light of my life
forgive me for not realizing it
and being so ignorant

It's time for me to reflect your light, mom
in your own way you've shown many people's life
may you be my inspiration
to share the warmth and light of love to others,
above all, i love you mom.
