The Difference in Love and Marriage

Recently, someone post this link on Facebook. This is a story of an innocent student who is wondering about the meaning of love as well as marriage . When I read it, I thought the teacher's answer is the right way to describe what love and marriage are; simply meaningful.

The Difference in Love and Marriage

A student asks a teacher, “What is love?” The teacher said, “in order to answer your question, go to the wheat field and choose the biggest wheat and come back. But the rule is: you can go through them only once and cannot turn back to pick.” The student went to the field, go thru first row, he saw one big wheat, but he wonders… may be there is a bigger one later. Then he saw another bigger one… But may be there is an even bigger one waiting for him. Later, when he finished more than half of the wheat field, he start to realize that the wheat is not as big as the previous one he saw, he know he has missed the biggest one, and he regretted. So, he ended up went back to the teacher with empty hand. The teacher told him, “this is love… You keep looking for a better one, but when later you realise, you have already miss the person…” “What is marriage then?” the student asked. The teacher said, “in order to answer your question, go to the corn field and choose the biggest corn and come back. But the rule is: you can go through them only once and cannot turn back to pick." The student went to the corn field, this time he is careful not to repeat the previous mistake, when he reach the middle of the field, he has picked one medium corn that he feel satisfy, and come back to the teacher. The teacher told him, “This time you bring back a corn. You look for one that is just nice, and you have faith and believe this is the best one you get… This is marriage.”

For you who are having an ordinary flat life....

The Arrow And The Bow

When I was in the first year of university, I interested to join the archery club. But unfortunately, I couldn't find their stand at the Open House Unit. So I ended up registering in some others units LOL. It is quite random to tell this old story in my blog. However, I was having a revelation recently and I thought this simple experience of mine will be a good start.

Archery is definitely something unfamiliar for me. Honestly, I seldom find this kind of club in my neigborhood. My first impression about archery is "classic sport, so challenging yet interesting". To master this sport, someone has to be calm yet focus. From what I observe, it needs a high accuracy and precision to get the arrow into the right target.

Archery is all about the bow, the arrow, and the archer. If an archer doesn't have any tools, then he can do nothing. In contras, bow and arrow without the archer are only inaminate objects. Doing the archery is perfectly describing a single phase of life. How could it be??

Ergonomically, the archer is going to arrange the arrow and the bow in the right position and hold it tight in his hand. After aiming a target, he is pulling back the arrow powerfully and release it. In a blink of an eye, the arrow will be stuck to the target. Voila it's done! 

In life, you are the arrow!

There are moments when life drags you down. Those are the time when you feel like your best is not good enough. You want to give up so desperately. You keep on telling yourself the things you cannot do. You are losing your hope. It feels like tommorow is another torturing day that you have to live with. At that point, you are blinded by your own desperation mind. To think clearly is the last thing you are able to do. In fact, you don't know what the future's gonna be like. You have no idea how you are now being shaped and prepared to be a better person tomorrow. 

After then, what happen to the arrow? 

The arrow drove so rapidly to the target even a glance of the tip of your eyes cannot catch where it goes. Yes, the archer has a perfect plan for you. A beautiful plan that you've never thought it'd be. Your negativity was overwhelm you and covered yourself form any goodness. 

Now that I've revealed this secreat, do not let yourself being overpowered by your fear and desperation of your on mind. You have to build a strong faith to your 'archer' for only he knows what he's aiming to. He knows the plans he has for you, plans to prosper you and not to harm you, to give you hope and a future. 

Everytime you're down, remember that you are an arrow. Being pulled back is just a stepping stone to be a greater person and hopefully it will arouse your spirit. Finally, do not let yourself be trapped with the dynamics of your humanly mind because your archer is your marvelous God.

Dear friends, don't lose hope :)

Fill In The [Blanks]

I bet some of you wonder what I've been doing lately.. 
In this 5th semester, I have a subjet named "Praktikum Management Rekayasa 2". I believe that I've spent the majority of my time doing this. Fortunately, there is no class this week so I have more sparetime to do blogging.

My group ,which consists of 2 boys and 3 girls including me, has made 3 questionnaires so far. It means we have to remake our 'imperfect' questionnaire 2 times and each time we have to search for a proper numbers of respondents, then evaluate them using a software called 'SPSS', this is a statistics software, to test their validity and reliability. In a short limited amount of time, this whole concatination is surely not easy.

Well, for our third questionnaire we need to collect 200 (TWO HUNDREDS) respondents in 4 (FOUR) days haha. We also require respondents who are match with our criteria based on our market target and segmentation. After that, of course we have to evaluate the responses using SPSS. It is frustrating knowing that we also have 2 other deadlines of papers in the early next week :)

For you who want to help us, here are the criteria:
above 24 years old
can speak Indonesian (because the questionnaire is in Indonesian)

Your response and your help mean a lot for us. Thank you :)


Sincerely,
