Life's about choice -donna donna


On a wagon bound for market,
There's a calf with a mournful eye.
High above him there's a swallow
Winging swiftly through the sky.

How the winds are laughing
They laugh with all their might
Laugh and laugh the whole day through
And half the summer's night.

Dona dona dona dona
Dona dona dona down
Dona dona dona dona
Dona dona dona don

"Stop complaining," said the farmer
"Who told you a calf to be;
Why don't you have wings to fly away
Like the swallow so proud and free?"

Calves are easily bound and slaughtered
Never knowing the reason why.
But whoever treasures freedom,
Like the swallow must learn to fly

so..what do you choose to be???????????

Before Sunset - A Waltz For a Night

Let me sing you a waltz
Out of nowhere, out of my thoughts
Let me sing you a waltz
About this one night stand

You were for me that night
Everything I always dreamt of in life
But now you're gone
You are far gone
All the way to your island of rain
It was for you just a one night thing
But you were much more to me
Just so you know

I hear rumors about you
About all the bad things you do
But when we were together alone
You didn't seem like a player at all

I don't care what they say
I know what you meant for me that day
I just wanted another try
I just wanted another night
Even if it doesn't seem quite right
You meant for me much more
Than anyone I've met before
One single night with you little Jesse
Is worth a thousand with anybody

I have no bitterness, my sweet
I'll never forget this one night thing
Even tomorrow, another arms
My heart will stay yours until I die

Let me sing you a waltz
Out of nowhere, out of my blues
Let me sing you a waltz
About this lovely one night stand

Before Sunrise - Perfect OneNightStand

(First Met At The Train)
Jesse: Do you have any idea what they were arguing about?
Celene: [glances up at him, looks over]
Jesse: Do you - Do you speak English?
Celene: Yeah. No, I'm sorry, my German is not very good. Have you ever heard that as couples get older, they lose their ability to hear each other?
Jesse: No.
Celene: Well, supposedly, men lose the ability to hear higher-pitched sounds, and women eventually lose hearing in the low end. I guess they sort of nullify each other, or something. Jesse: I guess. Nature's way of allowing couples to grow old together without killing each other.

(Met A Street Poem)
Daydream delusion
Limousine Eyelash
Oh, baby with your pretty face
Drop a tear in my wineglass
Look at those big eyes
See what you mean to me
Sweet cakes and milkshakes
I am a delusioned angel
I am a fantasy parade
I want you to know what I think
Don't want you to guess anymore
You have no idea where I came from
We have no idea where we're going
Launched in life. Like branches in the river
Flowing downstream.Caught in the current
I'll carry you. You'll carry me
That's how it could be
Don't you know me
Don't you know me by now.

(Time to Say GoodBye)
"let's meet right here in exactly one year. No! Make it six months, right at this spot..."

PeNNy BrOWn

I whispered, 'I am too young,'
And then, 'I am old enough';
Wherefore I threw a pennyTo find out if I might love.
'Go and love, go and love, young man,
If the lady be young and fair.

'Ah, penny, brown penny, brown penny,

I am looped in the loops of her hair.
O love is the crooked thing,
There is nobody wise enoughTo find out all that is in it,

For he would be thinking of love
Till the stars had run away
And the shadows eaten the moon.

Ah, penny, brown penny, brown penny,
One cannot begin it too soon.

Is'nt it right?
A penny represents the chance that we all take in life. Like tossing a penny in the air we are uncertain if it is the right time or that we may be too young (or too old) for love. But, love does not care about your age or where you are in life. If you find love, don’t give up and instead get lost in it (looped). But don’t think about it too much or you may lose sight of why you are in love – stay lost in the dream (till the stars run away).

HaPPy Day at HaPPyPuPPieS

Detty, my Best Friend in college who's now works in SIEMENS jakarta, was here and we had lunch and then went to Happy Puppies.

we were there for about 3 hours, and we went home with no voices on our throuts *laughing*
lots of song we sang.
and it reminded me on how I love this song very much.
Imagine the one you love sing it right in front of you..and ask the 'question'
my answer will definitely be YESS!!! *blushing*

If you're not the one then why does my soul feel glad today?
If you're not the one then why does my hand fit yours this way?
If you are not mine then why does your heart return my call?
If you are not mine would I have the strength to stand at all?

<"why?...why?...why?...">

I never know what the future brings
But I know you are here with me now
We'll make it through
And I hope you are the one I share my life with

<"YES..we never know what the future brings, than why don't we just try, and hope that everything goes well even better" :)>

I don't want to run away but I can't take it,
I don't understand
If I'm not made for you then why does my heart tell me that I am?
Is there any way that I can stay in your arms?

<"Is there any way honey?" *blushing* again>

If I don't need you then why am I crying on my bed?
If I don't need you then why does your name resound in my head?
If you're not for me then why does this distance maim my life?
If you're not for me then why do I dream of you as my wife?

<"it resound and resound so why?...why?..why?">

I don't know why you're so far away
But I know that this much is true
We'll make it through

And I hope you are the one I share my life with
And I wish that you could be the one I die with
And I pray in you're the one I build my home with
I hope I love you all my life

<"I really really do hope so, I hope my next relationship will last forever">

I don't want to run away but I can't take it, I don't understand
If I'm not made for you then why does my heart tell me that I am
Is there any way that I can stay in your arms?

'Cause I miss you,
body and soul so strong that it takes my breath away
And I breathe you
into my heart and pray for the strength to stand today

<"suddenly I'd like to send a message to someone" "have you figure out that this was the song?">

'Cause I love you,
whether it's wrong or right
And though I can't be with you tonight
And know my heart is by your side


I don't want to run away but I can't take it, I don't understand
If I'm not made for you then why does my heart tell me that I am
Is there any way that I can stay in your arms?

<dizzy coz by 3 hours loud sounds, hungry coz of 3 hours laughing, voiceless coz of 3 hours screaming, happy coz of 3 hours singing, after all it was a happy day at happypuppies>

My Kind of Love from Rumi


Takkan pernah ada kekasih yang tak dicari oleh kekasihnya.
Jika kilat cinta telah menyambar satu hati, maka ketahuilah bahwa ada cinta di hati yang lain.
Jika cinta ALLAH telah tumbuh dihatimu, tak diragukan lagi ALLAH pasti menaruh cinta kepadamu.
Tak ada suara tepuk tangan yang lahir dari satu tangan.
Kebijaksanaan iLahi adalah takdir dan suratan nasib yang membuat kita saling mencintai satu sama lain.
Karena takdir itulah, setiap bagian dari dunia ini bertemu dengan pasangannya.
Dalam pandangan orang-orang bijak, langit adalah laki-laki dan bumi ada perempuan; bumi memupuk apa yang telah dijatuhkan oleh langit.
Jika bumi kekurangan panas, maka langit mengirimkan panas kepadanya; jika bumi kehilangan kesegaran dan kelembaban, langit segera memulihkannya.
Langit memayungi bumi, layaknya seorang suami yang menafkahi istrinya.
Dan bumipun sibuk dengan urusan rumah tangga; ia melahirkan dan menyusui segala yang telah ia lahirkan.
Tak ubahnya Bumi dan Langit dikaruniai kecerdasan, karena mereka melaksanakan pekerjaan makhluk yang memiliki kecerdasan.
Andaikata pasangan ini tidak mengecap kenikmatan, mengapa mereka bersanding seperti sepasang kekasih ?
Tanpa Bumi, akankah pohon dan bunga bisa berkembang ?
Sementara tanpa Langit, akankah air dan panas bisa tersediakan ?Sebagaimana ALLAH memberikan hasrat pada laki-laki dan perempuan sehingga dunia menjadi terpelihara oleh kesatuan mereka.
ALLAH juga menanamkan ke semua eksistensi, hasrat untuk mencari belahannya.
Siang dan malam nampak bermusuhan; namun keduanya mengabdi pada satu tujuan.
Masing-masing saling mencintai untuk menyempurnakan karya besar mereka.
Tanpa malam, alam manusia tidak akan punya penghasilan, sehingga tidak ada yang akan dibelanjakan di waktu siang.
