Dosen lagi Main Sama Mahasiswi

 Disaat menuju jam-jam istirahat kelas, dosen mengatakan pada mahasiswa/mahasiswinya:

 “Mari kita buat satu permainan, mohon bantu saya sebentar.”

Kemudian salah satu mahasiswi yang sudah menikah berjalan menuju pelataran papan tulis.

DOSEN: Silahkan tulis 20 nama yang paling dekat dengan anda, pada papan tulis.Dalam sekejap sudah di tuliskan semuanya oleh mahasiswi tersebut. Ada nama tetangganya, teman kuliahnya, orang terkasih dan lain-lain.

DOSEN: Sekarang silahkan coret satu nama diantaranya yang menurut anda paling tidak penting!

Mahasiswi itu lalu mencoret satu nama, nama tetangganya.

DOSEN: Silahkan coret satu lagi!

Kemudian mahasiswi itu mencoret satu nama teman kuliahnya lagi.

DOSEN: Silahkan coret satu lagi!

Mahasiswi itu mencoret lagi satu nama dari papan tulis dan seterusnya.

Sampai pada akhirnya diatas papan tulis hanya tersisa tiga nama, yaitu nama orang tuanya, suaminya dan nama anaknya.

Dalam kelas tiba-tiba terasa begitu sunyi tanpa suara, semua Mahasiswa/mahasiswi tertuju memandang ke arah dosen, dalam pikiran mereka (para mahasiswa/mahasiswi) mengira sudah selesai tidak ada lagi yang harus dipilih oleh mahasiswi itu.

Tiba-tiba dosen memecahkan keheningan dengan berkata, 
“Silahkan coret satu lagi!”

Dengan pelahan-lahan mahasiswi itu melakukan suatu pilihan yang amat sangat sulit. Dia kemudian mengambil kapur tulis, mencoret nama orang tuanya.

DOSEN: Silahkan coret satu lagi!

Hatinya menjadi binggung. Kemudian ia mengangkat kapur tulis tinggi-tinggi. Lambat laun menetapkan dan mencoret nama anaknya. Dalam sekejap waktu, terdengar suara isak tangis, sepertinya sangat sedih.

Setelah suasana tenang, Dosen lalu bertanya, “Orang terkasihmu bukannya Orang tuamu dan Anakmu? Orang tua yang membesarkan anda, anak adalah anda yang melahirkan, sedang suami itu bisa dicari lagi. Tapi mengapa anda berbalik lebih memilih suami sebagai orang yang paling sulit untuk dipisahkan?

Semua teman sekelas mengarah padanya, menunggu apa yang akan dijawabnya.

Setelah agak tenang, kemudian pelahan-lahan ia berkata,
 “Sesuai waktu yang berlalu, orang tua akan pergi dan meninggalkan saya, sedang anak jika sudah besar setelah itu menikah bisa meninggalkan saya juga, yang benar-benar bisa menemani saya dalam hidup ini hanyalah suami saya.”




Note : ...terkadang hidup memang penuh dengan pilihan-pilihan sulit.....namun tetap harus dijalani....

5 Cara untuk mengatasi Stres

5 Ways to DESTRESS Instantly 

1. ✿ Pergi jalan-jalan ✿
Bahkan jika Anda hanya bisa meluangkan lima menit, berjalan-jalan (mungkin sekedar untuk mengambil pendingin air dan kembali).Tujuan di sini adalah untuk mendapatkan diri Anda jauh dari sumber langsung dari stres dan menenangkan diri.Beberapa menit untuk mengumpulkan pikiran Anda adalah semua yang Anda butuhkan untuk mendapatkan beberapa perspektif. 

5 Ways to DESTRESS Instantly 

2. ✿ Baca Beberapa Fiksi ✿ 

Jika saya serius bekerja sampai marah atau stres, salah satu hal terbaik yang bisa saya lakukan adalah untuk mengambil buku. Fiksi sangat ideal (terutama sesuatu yang lucu atau semangat). Bacaan fiksi membawa Anda keluar dari sini-dan-sekarang dan masuk ke dunia yang berbeda. Anda bisa melupakan semua yang mengganggu Anda, hanya sepuluh menit, karena Anda berkonsentrasi pada cerita.

3. ✿ Meditasi atau Berdoa ✿ 

Seringkali, hal terbaik yang dapat kita lakukan untuk segera menghilangkan stres adalah hanya untuk berhenti. Banyak kehidupan pelatih dan penasehat stres merekomendasikan meditasi: tidak ada misteri untuk itu, hanya duduk dan mencoba untuk membersihkan pikiran Anda dari pikiran (mungkin berkonsentrasi pada gambar menenangkan atau kata atau frase, jika itu membantu Anda). Berdoa - sesuai keyakinan agama/rohani Anda, dapat menjadi cara yang sangat ampuh untuk mendapatkan di luar kepala Anda sendiri dan meminta kepada kekuatan yang lebih tinggi untuk beberapa bantuan yang sangat dibutuhkan! 


5 Ways to DESTRESS Instantly 


4. ✿ Menonton Video Lucu ✿
Menonton video lucu dapat membuat Anda tertawa, kemudian memberikan diri lima menit untuk memanjakan diri sendiri. Anda akan menemukan bahwa Anda kembali ke pekerjaan Anda - atau apa pun sumber stres adalah - merasa jauh lebih siap untuk menanganinya.


5 Ways to DESTRESS Instantly 


5. ✿ Minum Herbal Tea ✿
Jika Anda merasa uber-stres, kafein tidak akan membantu. Sebuah mug  teh herbal, hangat menenangkan, meskipun tindakan yang membuat diri Anda minum dapat menenangkan: itu membuat akan Anda pergi dari meja Anda, dan itu memberikan Anda kesempatan untuk berkonsentrasi pada sesuatu yang fisik. Anda mungkin juga merasa dorongan psikologis dari melakukan sesuatu yang positif dan mendidik untuk diri sendiri.

House for Sale - Lucifer

The sign went up one rainy morning
Just a couple of hours after dawn
Mrs. Hadley peaked out through her curtains
Wondering what was going on

The neighbors said over coffee cups
That nice young couple is breaking up

And in the living room the linen and the crystals
Sit all packed and set to go
I tell myself once more I won't be here in spring
To see my roses grow

And all the things you tried to fix
The roof still leaks, the door still sticks

House for sale
You can read it on the sign
House for sale
It was yours and it was mine

And tomorrow some strangers
Will be climbing up the stairs
To the bedroom filled with memories
The one we used to share

I know you've always loved that painting
From that funny little shop in Spain
Remember how we found it when we ducked in
From that sudden summer rain

But I think I'll keep the silver tray
My mother gave us on our wedding day

House for sale
You can read it on the sign
House for sale
It was yours and it was mine

And tomorrow some strangers
Will be climbing up the stairs
To the bedroom filled with memories
The one we used to share

House for sale
You can read it on the sign
House for sale
It was yours and it was mine

And tomorrow some strangers
Will be climbing up the stairs
To the bedroom filled with memories
The one we used to share

House for sale
You can read it on the sign
House for sale
It was yours and it was mine

And tomorrow some strangers
Will be climbing up the stairs
To the bedroom filled with memories
The one we used to share

House for sale
You can read it on the sign
House for sale, oho
It was yours and it was mine

And tomorrow some strangers
Will be climbing up the stairs
To the bedroom filled with memories
The one we used to share..

Can break down the walls someday

I will be there, I will be there.

If we'd go again all the way from the start

I would try to change things that killed our love

Your pride has built the wall so strong that I can't get through!

Is there really no chance to start once again?

I'm loving you.

Try, baby try

To trust in my love again

I will be there, I will be there ...

Love our love

Just shouldn't be thrown away

I will be there, I will be there ...

You should give me a chance, this can't be the end

SHE'S GONE - Steelheart

She's gone,

Out of my life.

I was wrong,

I'm to blame,

I was so untrue.

I can't live without her love.

In my life

There's just an empty space.

All my dreams are lost,

I'm wasting away.

Forgive me, girl.



(Chorus)



Lady, won't you save me?

My heart belongs to you.

Lady, can you forgive me?

For all I've done to you.

Lady, oh, lady.



She's gone,

Out of my life.

Oh, she's gone.

I find it so hard to go on.

I really miss that girl, my love.



Come back into my arms.

I'm so alone,

I'm begging you,

I'm down on my knees.

Forgive me, girl.



(Chorus x2)



Lady, oh, lady.

My heart belongs to you.

Lady, can you forgive me?

For all I've done to you.

WONDERFUL TONIGHT - Eric Clapton

It's late in the evening

She's wonderin' what clothes to wear

She puts on her make-up

And brushes her long blond hair

And then she asks me, "Do I look all right?"

And I say yes, you look wonderful tonight



We go to a party

And everyone turns to see

This beautiful lady

walkin around with me



And then she asks me, "Do you feel all right?"

And I say yes, I feel wonderful tonight



I feel wonderful because I see the love light in your eyes

And the wonder of it all is that you just don't realize how much I love you



It's time to go home now

And I've got an achin' head

So I give her the car keys

And she helps me to bed



And then I tell her

As I turn out the light

I say my darlin', you were wonderful tonight

Oh, my darlin, you were wonderful tonight

WHEN I NEED YOU - Rod Stewart

When I need you

I just close my eyes and I'm with you

And all that I so want to give you

It's only a heartbeat away

When I need love

I hold out my hand

And I touch love

I never knew there was so much love

Keeping me warm night and day

Miles and miles of empty space in between us

A telephone can't take the place of your smile

But you know I won't be travellin' a lifetime

It's cold out

But hold out

And do like I do

When I need you

I just close my eyes and I'm with you

And all that I so want to give you babe

It's only a heartbeat away



It's not easy when the road is your driver

Honey that's a heavy load that we bear

But you know I won't be travellin' a lifetime

It's cold out

So hold out

And do like I do

When I need you



When I need love

I hold out my hands

And I touch love

I never knew there was so much love

Keeping me warm night and day



When I need you

I just close my eyes and you're right here by my side

Keepin' me warm night and day

I just hold out my hands

I just hold out my hands

And I'm with you darlin'

Yes I'm with you darlin'

All I wanna give you

It's only a heartbeat away

Oh I need you darlin'

YOU'RE ALL I NEED - White Lion

I know that she's waiting

For me to say forever

I know that I sometimes

Just don¹t know how to tell her

I want to hold and kiss her

Give her my love

Make her believe

'Cause she doesn't know

She doesn't know

You're all I need beside me girl

You're all I need to turn my world

You're all I want inside my heart

You're all I need when we're apart



I know that she's always

There when I need her loving

I know that I've never

Told her how much I love her

I see her face before me

I look in her eyes

Wondering why

She doesn't know

She doesn't know

She doesn't know



You're all I need beside me girl

You're all I need to turn my world

You're all I want inside my heart

You're all I need when we're apart



Say, say that you¹ll be there

Whenever I reach out

To feel your hand in mine

Stay, stay within my heart

Whenever I'm alone

I'll know that you are there



You're all I need beside me girl

You're all I need to turn my world

You're all I want inside my heart

You're all I need when we¹re apart

You're all I need

All that I need

Is for you to believe

All that I need

Is you

The Bible, seen from outer space

A group of Australian artists called The Glue Society has recently displayed a project that will surely be controversial. The work consists of a set of digital pictures that try to represent a series of biblical episodes just as they would be seen through a satellite, such as with Google Earth. Above, we can Moses crossing the Red Sea. It's funny how these pictures are close to our own stereotypes...
The cucifixion
Adam and Eve in the Garden of Eden (look closely)
Noah's Ark after the Deluge
