The Relationship

The relationship between pencil and eraser

Pencil: I’m sorry….

Eraser: For what? You didn’t do anything wrong.

Pencil: I’m sorry cos you get hurt because of me. Whenever I made a mistake, you’re always there to erase it. But as I make my mistakes, you lose a part of yourself. You get smaller and smaller each time.

Eraser: That’s true. But I don’t really mind. You see, I was made to do this. I was made to help you whenever you do something wrong. Even though one day, I know I’ll be gone and you’ll replace me with a new one. I’m actually happy with my job.. So please, stop worrying. I hate seeing you sad.

This conversation between the pencil and the eraser very inspirational.
Parents are like the eraser whereas their children are the pencil.


They’re always there for their children, cleaning up their mistakes. Sometimes along the way.. They get hurt, and become smaller (older, and eventually pass on). Though their children will eventually find someone new (spouse), but parents are still happy with what they do for their children, and will always hate seeing their precious ones worrying or sad.

This is for all parents out there…

Sepucuk Surat Kepada yg Letih dan Lesu

Anak-Ku yang terkasih,

Aku mendengar jeritanmu kemarin malam. Aku berada di kegelapan dalam dirimu, ketika air matamu mengalir di wajahmu dan hatimu remuk.

Apakah kau mengira Aku tidak melihatnya dan tidak peduli terhadapmu?

Apakah kamu mengira bahwa Aku tidak tahu betapa lelah, letih dan lesu kamu sesungguhnya?

Anak-Ku, Aku selalu berada bersamamu, ketika kepahitan hidup sedang menghantammu secara bertubi-tubi... Aku mengamati, ketika kamu menangani semua derita dan kesakitan.

Namun kini kamu letih dan lesu, Aku dapat melihat semangatmu yang patah, juga pengharapan dan impianmu yang semakin sirna.

Ingatlah bahwa Aku penuh dengan kepedulian. Sentuhan-Ku dan kepedulian-Ku dapat menyembuhkan hatimu yang remuk redam, dan meghidupkan api pengharapan sekali lagi dalam dirimu. Biarkanlah aku mengasihimu. Runtuhkanlah penghalang-penghalang di sekeliling hatimu dan sandarkanlah dirimu kepada-Ku.

Aku tidak akan lelah dan letih lesu dan aku memiliki cukup kekuatan untuk menolongmu, bila kamu membutuhkannya.

Kamu tidak pernah sendirian, karena Aku adalah sahabatmu dan Aku tidak akan pernah sedetikpun meninggalkanmu seorang diri.

Sahabatmu,

YESUS.

Love That Lasts a Lifetime

I am the kind of girl who doesn’t wear her heart on her sleeve.


I am the kind of girl who doesn’t get carried away by a man with macho looks and who is surrounded by girls all the time.

I am born for someone special.

I am born for that one in a million kind of a man who can charm me with just one soulful look.

Someone who can look deep into my eyes and say
That I am the girl with whom he wants to spend the rest of his life.

Someone who can hold my hand and say
That he will never give up on me no matter what comes up in our life.

He will be the man who will respect me for my ethics and values and love me soulfully.

He will be the one who is the other half of me and who will keep me close to the heart even through sticks and shivers when I am old.

My dream is yet to come true
And I am not disheartened because I know
That one day I will mean the world to someone.

Someone who is just mine.
He will be the one who deserves me.

I am waiting because I know that I deserve the best.

I want love that lasts a lifetime...
