A Man We Called Husband

Behind every great man stands a great woman

Either a lover, wife, mother or grandmother. But for most husbands, it is their wives.

Postingan kali ini sifatnya lebih ke confession. Tanpa mengurangi rasa bersyukur atas keadaan sekarang, gw kadang berasa suka kebanyakan ngeluh. Ngeluhnya sih jarang diomongin, tapi berasa banget days when I just 'fight' with my emotions.

Seperti yang sering gw omongin, bahwa expectation leads to disappointment. So to prevent feeling disappointed, you simply just need to stop expecting.

Jangka waktu gw pacaran sampai menikah itu less than a year. Mengesampingkan keraguan menikah karena percaya bahwa human being evolves. Inget omongan survival of the fittest? Sebenernya bukan yang kuat yang menang; buat gw arti yang lebih tepat adalah siapa yang bisa menempatkan diri itu yang bisa bertahan. Pacaran lama bukan jaminan bahwa pernikahan akan bertahan selamanya, dan siapa bilang kalau pacarannya bentar lalu nikahnya bentar juga.

Gw pernah bilang bahwa marriage is an endurance training. How you manage yourself to endure on those bickering and emotional fighting to each other. Cause come on, marriage is no fairytale at all ya. It's a true roller-coaster ride. You can be bitching about each other last night, and be all lovey-dovey in the morning. And this roller-coaster ride of mine, I've lost counts of how many laps those ups and downs went through our way.

Between Love and Attachment

I found this interesting quote on Pinterest...

Try not to confuse Attachment with Love. Attachment is about fear and dependency, and has more to do with love of self than love of other. Love without attachment is the purest love because it isn't about what others can give you because you're empty. It is about what you can give to others because you're already full.

Ever feel oftenly disappointed because not getting what you wanted? Then maybe you are expecting too much. Expectation leads to disappointment.

Or maybe having difficulties to move on? Afraid of not being able to feel the way you used to feel? Then maybe you are being too attach.

Only you can make yourself happy. Only you can fill in your empty cup.

Hello Little You

An addition to my apple family. A special edition from a special person. Akhirnya punya iPod lagiiii... Ihiiiiyyyy...

 

Liat iPod nano warnanya kan lucu lucu ya. Mulai celamitan deh pengin punya soalnya suka susah kl mau denger musik di iPhone. Batere cepet drain out. Males bolak balik charge hp. Alasan pembenaran kyknya. Tapi karena cuma pengin penginan, ya gak ngoyo beli. Ini juga maksudnya ga ngoyo beli karena ngarep dikadoin.

Eh lalu lalu hari sabtu kemarin dihadiahin ini ma agung :D :D :D

Hari itu dia ada regrup di sency. Tadinya gw mau sekalian jemput then nengokin grenma. Trus dia bilang mesti cek lokasi di gading sampai malem jadi nampaknya plan hari itu mesti cancel. Okelah tidur siang aja ma agni - tidur sore sih, secara agni baru merem jam 4 x_x Jam 6 tau-tau agung udah di rumah dan ada kotak iPod di sebelah. Cengar cengir sambil sok-sokan nanya "Ini buat aku??", "Kamu kapan beli?", "Ih kok hadiahnya lucu" dan pertanyaan gengges lainnya *tepok jidat*. Yaudahsihniaaaa dibuka aja itu kotaknyaaaahhh...

Udah curigesyen karena pagi-pagi ditanyain warna kesukaannya apa. Dan jawaban gw cukup random "No particular color sih, kalo nemu warna bagus pasti suka".. zzzz thanks a lot for the information loh niaaaa...

Akhirnya dibeliin warna merah. Selain karena itu warnanya bold banget, it's a special edition! Katanya buat special person ihik ihik ihik... Pas dibongkar kotaknya si Agni yang heboh. Dipikirnya kita mbeliin dia henpon kali ya soalnya ditaruh di kuping kayak orang nelpon sambil nyerocos ga jelas hahaha

Thanks for the gift ya Darl... XOXOXO

Eh eh aku juga kasih kado anniversary dong... Beliin kemeja batik. Kemeja karena elemen anniversary kedua itu cotton, so a cotton shirt it is. Batiknya soalnya dia kan lagi pengen 'nabung' batik banyak jadi sekalian aja :D
