TRUE FRIENDSHIP!

With you, it's all about voiceless communication-
always knowing exactly what to say,
but never actually having to say it.

When no one seems to be listening,
you hear.
When I hurt but don't show it,
you know.
When I turn away to hide my tears,
you see.
When I feel like I can't get through to anyone,
you understand.

Your eyes glow just for me,
and I know you're proud.
You flash your magical, healing smile my way,
and I know everything will be all right.

You know everything there is to know about me.
You know what worries me,
what keeps me up at night,
and what shames me so badly
that I can't share it with anyone.
Most importantly, though,
none of those things bother you.

You've restored my faith in people
and proved that there is a thing
called true friendship.

~Dawn Nissen~


FOREVER FRIEND

Sometimes in life
you find a special friend
Someone who changes your life
just by being part of it.

Someone who makes you laugh
until you can't stop
Someone who makes you believe
that there really is good in the world.
Someone who convinces you
that there really is an unlocked door
just waiting for you to open it.
This is Forever Friendship.

When you're down,
and the world seems dark and empty,
Your forever friend lifts you up in spirit
and makes that dark and empty world
suddenly seem bright and full.

Your forever friend gets you through
the hard times, the sad times,
and the confused times.
If you turn and walk away,
your forever friend follows.
If you lose your way,
your forever friend guides you
and cheers you on.

Your forever friend holds your hand
and tells you that
everything is going to be okay.
And if you find such a friend,
you feel happy and complete,
because you need not worry.
You have a forever friend for life,
and forever has no end.

Thinking Of YOU!

When I open my eyes
to see the sun rise
I think of you.

When I hear a robin sing
on the first day of spring
I think of you.

When I see a red rose
on the bush where it grows
I think of you.

When I feel the summer heat
on the sand beneath my feet
I think of you.

When I sit on a beach
another world just out of reach
I think of you.
When I see the colored leaves
fall to the ground from a light breeze
I think of you.
When I look to the night sky
and see the sparkle like in your eyes
I think of you.

When the snow is coming down
to softly blanket the ground
I think of you.

When I go to bed at night
as I turn out the light
I think of you.
When I'm old and near death
and I draw my last breath
I'll think of you.

I Miss You

Though you are not here
wherever I go or whatever I do
I see your face in my mind
and I miss you so
I miss telling you everything
I miss showing you things
I miss our eyes
secretly giving each other confidence
I miss your touch
I miss our excitement together
I miss everything we share
I don't like missing you
It is a very cold
and lonely feeling
I wish that I could be
with you right now
where the warmth of our love
would melt the winter snows
But since I can't be
with you right now
I will have to be content
just dreaming about
when we'll be together again

-Poem by Susan Polis Schutz


I will be Here!

If in the morning when you wake,
If the sun does not appear,
I will be here.
If in the dark we lose sight of love,
Hold my hand and have no fear,
I will be here.

I will be here,
When you feel like being quiet.
Through the winning, losing, and trying,
we'll be together, And I will be here.

If in the morning when you wake,
If the future is unclear,
I will be here.
I will be true to the promises I've made,
To you and to the one who gave you to me.
I will be here.

~Steven Curtis Chapman~



Dreaming of You!

I lay in bed on a dark,
stormy night
I drift off to sleep, my mind
takes flight
I dream of places far
and near
I wish you could be here.
I hear your voice and
see your smile
I wish it would last
little while
I sometimes wonder if
you ever knew...
That I lay in my bed,
dreaming of you.

~ Melissa Doyle


Our Love

Love is a word, not from the mind
If you look into my eyes,
My Love you will find.
As I look in your eyes
I see us together
And I know this is forever.
As I hold you near
I feel the Love
Without a single fear.
Take my hand and I'll show you the way
Our Love will grow stronger
y day.

Always and Forever

I never get to tell you what I really need to say
How I long to hold you each and every day
You mean more to me than words can ever express
Without you my life would be a total mess
As I look into your eyes, and at your perfect face
I know there will never be anyone to take your place
No matter what problems we may go through
That place in my heart will always be for you
If I am having a hard time letting you in
It's because I have played the game, and never win
Your love means so much to me
I just don't know how to make you see
I don't care what people say
We can stick together anyway
When they come to me, all I see is your face
When they start to speak your voice takes their place
It's a voice that promises to always be there
No matter what they say, I know you still care
Always and Forever is what this means to me
I LOVE YOU, now can you see?

Teknologi Terkini di CNN

Hari Rabu kemarin (tanggal 20 januari) saya nonton TV – CNN tepatnya – mulai pagi hari sekitar pukul 09.00 sampai siang sekitar pukul 12.30. Bukan apa-apa, saya cuma ingin mengikuti proses penghitungan suara pemilihan presiden Amerika secara rinci. Dan memang seru karena saya jadi bisa merasakan sendiri ketegangan, kegembiraan, dan kesedihan yang terjadi.

Tapi bukan itu yang ingin saya bagikan di sini. Yang ingin saya bagikan adalah teknologi yang dipakai CNN pada liputan waktu itu. Awalnya yang membuat saya kagum adalah sebuah teknologi layar sentuh canggih yang mereka pakai untuk menjelaskan situasi yang terjadi. Teknologinya mirip Microsoft Surface tapi dalam bentuk vertikal. Si pembawa acara dengan cepatnya bergerak melakukan simulasi (bagaimana seandainya suatu negara bagian dimenangkan si A atau B), mengambil data historis (dari pemilu sebelumnya), dan mengambil data demografi. Data demografinya sendiri sangat banyak variabelnya. Benar-benar lengkap!

Itu belum yang paling heboh.

Yang paling mengejutkan adalah waktu mereka mengadakan wawancara melalui… hologram! Si pembawa acara duduk di studio, lalu di depannya tiba-tiba muncul orang yang diwawancarai (yaitu will.i.am yang menggubah lagu Yes, We Can). Dia muncul dalam bentuk tiga dimensi seolah-olah sedang berada di situ. Mereka pun bercakap-cakap dan setelah wawancara selesai dia menghilang.

Terus terang saya belum pernah melihat yang seperti itu. Wawancara melalui hologram? Rasanya seperti sedang menonton Star Trek (dengan holodeck-nya). Atau mungkin saya saja yang ketinggalan jaman? :)

Adegan Video Porno Pelajar Cianjur

Kabupaten Cianjur, yang dikenal sebagai kota santri dan kota “Gerbang Marhamah”, kembali dihebohkan oleh beredarnya video mesum yang diduga dilakukan salah satu siswi sebuah sekolah ternama di daerah itu.

Keterangan yang dihimpun ANTARA, Selasa, menyebutkan pemeran adegan porno yang menghebohkan dan beredar luas dari tangan ke tangan melalui pesawat “handphone” itu diduga dilakukan seorang pelajar dari sebuah sekolah menengah kejuruan (SMK).

Adegan berdurasi 4 menit 27 detik itu mengambil lokasi di dalam mobil, nampak di jok bagian depan mobil terlihat lambang sekolah yang tertera di baju pemeran wanita.

Dalam rekaman itu, sang pelajar perempuan mengenakan jilbab putih, baju putih, dan rok panjang cokelat muda, tersorot kamera. Sementara wajah lelaki pasangannya tengah dalam posisi duduk di jok dengan mengenakan kaus warna merah dan celana jeans warna biru.

Direktur Sarinah Institute, Susilawati SH, menyatakan kasus mesum yang diduga dilakukan oleh pasangan pelajar dan beredar luas di masyarakat itu sebaiknya menjadi perhatian semua pihak, terutama komponen pendidikan.

Ia juga melihat, adanya praktek semacam itu merupakan buah dari budaya bebas yang menghantui generasi muda, terutama pelajar.

“Ini sudah menyangkut pergeseran nilai, ini sangat menghawatirkan. Kabupaten Cianjur saja yang terkenal sebagai kota santri bisa menghadapi persoalan seperti ini, apalagi daerah lain,” kata Susilawati kepada ANTARA.

Kasubdin Pendidikan Menengah (Dikmen) Dinas Pendidikan dan Kebudayaan Kabupaten Cianjur, Gunawan, saat dikonfirmasi oleh wartawan mengenai beredarnya adegan porno yang diperankan seorang pelajar tidak menampiknya. Hanya ia membantah bahwa itu dilakukan oleh siswa sekolah yang pernah dipimpinnya.

“Memang yang beredar itu dilakukan oleh sekolah yang pernah saya pimpin, tapi saya sudah cek ke sekolah dengan kepala sekolah bahkan dengan aparat berwajib. Satu per satu siswa diperiksa tidak ada yang sesuai dengan adegan dalam rekaman itu,” kata Gunawan. @Antara News
