Kahlil Gibran: Jiwa Penari Ada di Sekujur Tubuhnya

Di sebuah malam, seorang penari wanita dan pemusik dari Birkasha datang ke istana pangeran. Mereka diizinkan untuk masuk. Mulailah penari itu menari dengan iringan bunyi alat musik kecapi, siter dan seruling.

Beberapa tarian yang dibawakan adalah tarian pedang, tarian api, dan tarian lembing. Tak lama kemudian, ia turut membawakan tarian angkasa dan bintang, disambung dengan tarian kembang yang mempesona.

Semua tarian telah selesai dibawakan oleh sang penari. Kemudian ia berdiri menghadap sang pangeran dan membungkuk memberi hormat. Pangeran tersebut bertanya,"Wanita cantik, putri yang anggun nan ceria, dari mana engkau menyerap seluruh ilham kesenianmu? Bagaimana pula engkau dapat menguasai segala unsur irama serta puisi?"

Penari tersebut kemudian membungkuk lagi. Selang kemudian ia menjawab, "Baginda yang mulia dan berdaulat, saya tidak dapat menjawab pertanyaan Baginda. Hal yang saya ketahui hanyalah: Jiwa ahli filsafat tinggal di hatinya, jiwa penyanyi tinggal di tenggorokannya, tapi jiwa penari ada di sekujur tubuhnya"

My Agro- Recreation

Hi fellows. I actually didn't plan to have any recreation, but my father wanted me to accompany him on an occasion like visiting an agro- recreation place in Banguntapan, Yogyakarta a week ago. You have to visit there someday. Look at the flowers, dear ♥ I made a poem and in my real opinion, it was so hard to make this poem, but may be it would express how much i love this place: turun dari tempatku semula, bahkan tak terbayang segores pun tentang : " what will i do there?" "what will i probably capture?'" "what will i get and what will i learn?" sekejap. selangkah demi selangkah tak ada yang buat mataku berhenti memandang mengagumi memuji men- capture segala yang kulihat. naluri berkata= i hearth the earth and this place is such a little path of the earth You Rock, Almighty. There are too many things that i loved. The smell of the air, the view from any sight was really natural, i bet my rabbits love to stay here, i imagine how they run and play ...

What We Can Learn From 'Frozen' : Seeing on The Beauty

What We Can Learn From Frozen : Seeing on The Beauty Hans Christian Andersen is a great story-teller I have ever known. Knowing that Frozen is mostly based on one of his masterpiece, Snow Queen , I guarantee that people rate this for almost five stars as a-must-watch-fairytale-animation-movie-2013. Different with the other fairytales he has made, this film is about to say that whether everything you did at the past were right or wrong, you just have to be brave to take steps forward to be free from that shadow then make an unexpected-bloody-good change toward the future. Everything related to certain story, has a certain path that everyone clung onto the certain hope. We, as creatures having certain strength that somehow bring us to damage or it is a key point how to manage that strength to be something everyone loves. ...

Heartstrings

P eople repetitively ask how to manage something in overseeing- mode. I learn to do it. Whether it has good impact or not, it will come to the final answer. I begin with a common sense. People in life try hard to reach every goal they made in order to achieve the necessary things. Academic, talent, rank, achievement, publicity and so on. I'd rather think that overseeing myself is a good one, better in controlling myself means better in understanding myself. Every desire has each complicated feeling, so managing emotion and also controlling the feelings must be challenging for some people, including me. Every feelings, I mention them, as angry, happy, missing someone, sad, all combined together into a name that usually i call: HEARTSTRINGS . Heartstrings is a feeling comes from our heart. Every feeling comes with certain reason, certain process and also certain effect or impact. I never imagine how our heart can work with all these complex feelings when all comes to...
