Manusia dan Manusia


Satu hal yang paling saya ingat dari suami dan ibu mertua saya adalah kita tidak boleh membenci seseorang. Mungkin saya bukan pendendam, tapi saya bukan orang yang mudah melupakan masalah atau melupakan orang yang berbuat masalah dengan saya.

Rasulullah SAW bersabda, "Sesungguhnya rahmat Allah tidak akan turun kepada suatu kaum yang di dalamya ada orang yang memutuskan tali persaudaraan".

Yang akan selalu terngiang diingatan. Kita tidak boleh membenci seseorang karena rahmat Allah tidak akan turun. Saya belajar banyak dari kalimat ini. Belajar memaafkan dengan ikhlas dan belajar merelakan bahwa semua apa pun yang terjadi di hidup saya adalah atas kehendak Allah SWT yang baik dan buruk.

Saya belajar satu hal baru mengenai silaturahmi dan hubungan sesama manusia, itu sifatnya dua arah. Dan ini berlaku sesama saudara, teman, maupun orang lain.

(Amazing) Just The Way You Are

Welcome to Saturday: 9. What we've committed to our readers is that we will post 9 questions every Saturday. Sometimes the post will have a theme, and at other times the questions will be totally unrelated. Those weeks we do "random questions," so-to-speak. We encourage you to visit other participants posts and leave a comment. Because we don't have any rules, it is your choice. We hate rules. We love memes, however, and here is today's meme!



Saturday 9: (Amazing) Just the Way You Are

Thanks to Smellyann for the song suggestion


1) This song is about a girl who can't accept how pretty she is. How do you respond to compliments? Do you accept them graciously, or do you get embarrassed? I don't do well witg compliments and easily embarrased. I think because I lack my self-esteem so I'd gone doubting ppl when they say something good about me whether it's true or not.

2) Bruno says he takes inspiration from a variety of musical styles -- everything from rock to reggae to hip hop. What kind of music do you listen to most often? Rock, heavy rock to pop rock, indie rock, country rock, alternative rock. Just a band than a boyband.

3) Bruno's uncle was a professional Elvis impersonator, and as a little boy Bruno also performed on stage as the King. When you picture Elvis, do you think of early rock'n'roll Elvis from the 1950s, Technicolor Hollywood Elvis of the 1960s, or the rhinestone jumpsuit Elvis who performed in Las Vegas? Rhinestone jumpsuit memorable because it's bling bling.

4) Bruno plays several instruments onstage, including piano, guitar and congas. What instruments can you play? I wish I could but I suck with instruments. If I could, I'd like piano, guitar and cello.

5) Bruno is touring all over the country this summer. What's the last concert you attended? I don't do concerts but (don't laugh) I attend one of Kpop boyband concerts and screaming like a teen.

6) Unlike some other stars, Bruno doesn't demand a lot of luxuries on the road, but he did admit to TMZ that he insists Wet Wipes be provided for his dressing room. If you could ask your boss for anything, anything at all, to make your workplace more comfortable, what would you request? Pretty much satisfied. For me as long there's computer and fast internet connection I won't bitching.

7) Rumors are flying that Bruno might become a judge on American Idol. Are you an Idol fan? Do you watch any of the other "talent search" shows -- The Voice, America's Got Talent, The X Factor, etc.? Used to. I don't really like the idea of talent search, getting boring with similar concept.

8) Bruno is an unapologetic cigarette smoker. Do you smoke? Have you quit? Or did you never start? This is a secret. If ppl get high with drugs, I get high with smoke. I wasn't make it a habit it just short span curiosity... that killed the cat.
 
9) Billy Joel also had a hit with the title "Just the Way You Are." If we were going to do karaoke, which version would you sing -- Billy's or Bruno's? I am not into Bruno Mars at first but I listem to him lately... The Talking to the moon and locked out of heaven songs.
 
Today is my mom 51st bday if she's here. Happy Birthday mom.
 
And have a great weekend fabulous readers.
 
.Cheers.
