VARANUS COMMODOENSIS



All of you think that Varanus Commodoensis is the monster of the wild animal. Yes, you are right sometimes. This opinion has its evidence by such experience. The foreigners  who visit Komodo and Rinca island (Varanus Commodensis's places) face some troubles. It can said that study about Varanus Commodensis is a difficult duty and full of challenges. The criteria to to estimate the successful about Varanus Commodensis’ study is how Komodo (local name of Varanus Commodensis) know you and it still standing there beside you. If someone can create the  comfortable, you find the door to know more Komodo. We then take a good interact with it.

There are two ways to throw in to Komodo's palace. First of all, Komodo tamer will guide you. here, the visitors just follow the guide's instruction. Second, you can go alone but you have to know all about its characters; what Komodo's will and what its instinct talking to you. Komodo is an ancient animal with its wildness, aggressive, and frightened. It will attack all around (humans, other animals, and so on) if it is in hunger and angry. Komodo attack all visitors that hurt and bleed. Beside that, women, that have a menstruation period, must not enter the Komodo area. Komodo will come and attack you. Komodo have a very sensitive blood smelling. Then, Komodo doesn’t like visitor’s aggressive attitude. Komodo feels attacked, so it opposes the visitors. In fact, study about Komodo lively is the best choosing. We can know more about its unique habits. However, we must take care to enter and meet Komodo. You must keep in distance. so spend your haliday in Rinca and Komodo island... Surely, u feel a real human there...

FATHER DAMIEN's STEADFASTNESS


STEADFASTNESS IN FRIENDSHIP
Steadfastness is an important aspect in friendship. Good relationship in friendship is the priority. Two persons, who build up a friendship, have more attention their good relation. They can do everything to care their relationship, such as: give attention to each other, sympathy, empathy, etc. According to those statements, we infer that people have no reason to deny a relationship. In fact, people need somebody else to share his life experiences, and human can’t live alone (homo socius). Sometimes, friendship, in other way, has some problems. If people find a problem in their relationship, there is a gap between them. They need more chance t introspect their selves and reconcile it again. From the experience, an ideal friendship can be better if they have a steadfast unsure in their self. It means every person who wants to be friends has an open-minded and confesses all the positives or negative traits his/her friends. Steadfastness is a basic unsure in building up the friendship. So, be loyalty to your friends, because loyalty can pick you up to steadfastness.

BEST CHOICE OF FATHER DAMIEN

Strong commitment of Father Damien motivates him in serving lepers. In Damien’s life context, leprosy is a danger disease. Leprosy is a danger disease because there isn’t an enough medicine to heal this disease. I can say that leprosy bring you to die. Nevertheless, people afraid to contact with the lepers. If people were infected by leprosy you will be isolated by the society in your community, hometown, etc. at the opposite, lepers feel alone if societies isolate them to foreign place. Damien, without specialization in leprosy, goes to Hawaii for helping leprosy patients. His General leader wants him to make no physic contact with lepers. God does something else in him and Holy Spirit make him stronger. In fact, he does the opposites. He touched every leper; eat together them, work altogether, etc. The reality changes his paradigm of thinking.  Lepers situation motivate him to feel what are they feel. He convince that by living together and serve them with all his soul, they have a hope for eternal life. Hope is the basic aspect in Christian faith. Finally, he infects by leprosy and die because of it. The shepherd dies for his sheep. He does what was Jesus did.

INI SEMUA TENTANG KOMITMEN

orang bilang komitmen itu gampang.
mudah sebagaimana ketika diucapkan.
komitmennya sih gampang, tapi konsistensi yang mengikutinya itu lho...

sahabat...
saya pernah hidup di suatu dunia yang berbeda.
di sana saya temukan makna terdalam diksi komitmen dan konsisten...

Komitmen kuujar dalam rangka menghentikan kebiasaan merokok..
dan setelahnya saya senantiasa ingat bahwa saya pernah mengujar kata "menghentikan"...
dengan mengingat kata itu, saya terdorong untuk tidak merokok..
kemudian saya berhenti merokok...

Sahabat,
Suatu kali saya lupa ujaran itu.
saat itu kami sedang bertamasya ke Pantai...
kami semua merasa senang dan melakukan banyak hal di luar kebiasaan..
kami berkumpul dan menenggak satu jenis minuman bersulang..
lalu memasukkan beberapa sigarets ke dalam mulut kami..
kami senang dan saya lupa....

Ketika saya lupa, saya akhirnya meruntuhkan konsistensi..
saya kembali memulai kebiasaan yang telah lama kutinggalkan
saya merokok...
Komitmen itu sederhana, tapi konsistensi harus dijaga,,

Mungkin begitu dalam "membangun cinta"

"berikan aku waktu 2 detik saja untuk jatuh cinta padamu....
tapi garansikan aku waktu seumur hidup untuk terus memperjuangkan cintaku padamu..."

INi tidak mudah. Membangun cinta yang sudah ada itu susah.
susah jika keduanya tidak saling terbuka.
lalu, kalau terbuka berarti bebas masalah ya?
Bukan begitu juga, kadang kejujuran itu pun menyayat hati.

"sayang aku harus jujur, jika aku jatuh cinta (lagi) dengan orang selain kamu"..
ini jujur lho, tapi menyakitkan...

Jujur itu mulia, tapi kadang menyayat hati.
tapi berbohong itu jahanam...
lalu berbohong demi kebaikan? itu juga jahat...
pada dirinya berbohong adalah perbuatan tak baik...

Ahh.... kawannn !!!
ini sudah terlalu ngalor ngidul. kata om Bule: *out of control*.
apa intinya dari omong2 di atas?
Begini saja... Komitmen dan konsistensi itu membuat hidup lebih prinsipil,
berdaya guna, dan menegaskan kejatian diri...
Komitmen (untuk berbuat baik) dan konsisten mempertahankannya akan menghasilkan buah2 yang berlipat..
ada yang 10 kali lipat, 30 kali lipat, dan bahkan 100 kali lipat....
