Jangan Hanya Melihat ke Atas!!!

Tidak baik jika kita menutup-nutupi kelemahan dan kegagalan dengan banyak alasan. Terimalah, dan hadapilah kegagalan itu sebagai pengalaman dan pelajaran berharga, agar bisa jadi pedoman dan tuntunan untuk mencapai kemajuan dan keberhasilan yang lebih berarti di kemudian hari.

Kita tahu bahwa dunia ini selalu berputar. Adakalanya manusia ada di bawah, atau sebaliknya ada di atas.Ada orang bertanya kepada saya, bagaimana dengan kenyataan yang sering kita lihat begitu banyak orang-orang yang selalu di bawah? Bukankah mereka juga tinggal di bumi yang sama dengan orang-orang yang mampu dan kuat berada di atas? Sering kita lihat orang-orang yang sudah di atas malah semakin ke atas. Pandangan itu semua hanyalah ironi. Kita tidak pernah tahu apa yang terjadi pada mereka yang sudah ada di atas. Kebanyakan di antara kita melihat mereka yang di atas
selalu dari 'materi' atau jabatan.Namun percayalah, setiap orang mengalami pasang surut. Belajarlah dari orang-orang yang sudah ada di atas, dan orang-orang yang berada di bawah. Jangan hanya melihat ke atas. Banyak pelajaran yang bisa diambil dari keduanya, yang bisa engkau jadikan bekal tuk menjadi pribadi yang luhur bijaksana, sukses lahir dan batin.

Mariah Carey

 

Synopsis

Mariah Carey was born March 27, 1970, in Long Island, New York, and began taking voice lessons at age four. At 18 she signed with Columbia records, and her first album had four number-one singles, including "Vision of Love" and "I Don't Wanna Cry." She went on to produce several more albums (later with other studios) and top singles, and is one of the best-selling female artists of all time.

Early Life

Singer Mariah Carey was born March 27, 1970 in Long Island, New York, to Alfred Roy Carey, a Venezuelan aeronautical engineer; and Patricia Carey, a voice coach and opera singer. Has two older siblings: a brother, Morgan, and a sister, Alison. Carey is known as one of the top “pop divas” of the 1990s, having sold more than eighty million albums worldwide. Her voice spans more than five octaves and she writes most of her own music.

Carey's parents divorced when she was 3. She stunned her mother by imitating her operatic singing as early as age two, and was given singing lessons starting at age four. After graduating in 1987 from Harborfields High School in Greenlawn, New York, Carey moved to Manhattan where she worked as a waitress, coat check girl, and studied cosmetology while writing songs and actively pursuing a music career at night.

Early Music Career

When she was 18, Carey and her friend, singer Brenda K. Starr, went to a party hosted by CBS Records. Starr convinced Carey to bring along one of her demo tapes. She intended to give the tape to Columbia's Jerry Greenberg, but Tommy Mottola, the president of Columbia Records (later Sony), intercepted it before she could hand it to Greenberg. After listening to the tape on the way home from the party, Mottola signed Carey immediately and set her to work on her first album, Mariah Carey (1990) which included four No. 1 singles: “Vision of Love,” “Love Takes Time,” “Some Day,” and “I Don’t Wanna Cry.” Her second album Emotions was released in 1992; the title track became her fifth No. 1 single, and included hits “Can’t Let Go” and “Make it Happen.”

Success on the Pop Charts

In March 1992, Carey appeared on MTV's Unplugged. This performance was released as an album and a home video, resulting in another No. 1 single (a cover of The Jacksons’ “I’ll Be There”). Her next album Music Box (1993) cut back a bit on the lavish studio production techniques heard in her previous albums, and included the No. 1 singles, “Dreamlover” and “Hero.” Her November 1994 release Merry Christmas combined traditional Christian hymns with new songs. In 1995 she released Daydream; the first single “Fantasy” debuted at No. 1. It also included collaborations with R&B and hip-hop artists, such as Wu-Tang Clan and Boyz II Men (“One Sweet Day”).

Her 1997 album Butterfly included eleven compositions written by Carey, and demonstrated her continued interest in hip-hop and R&B, including the Sean “Puffy” Combs produced “Honey,” her twelfth No. 1 hit. #1’s (1998) featured her thirteen previous chart-topping singles as well as the Academy Award-nominated “The Prince of Egypt (When You Believe),” a duet with fellow pop diva, Whitney Houston. Carey is also rumored to be pursuing an acting career.

In June 1993, Carey married Mottola in a spectacular ceremony at Manhattan's St. Thomas Episcopal Church. The couple divorced in 1998. Carey then dated Latin singer Luis Miguel for three years, but their relationship reportedly ended in the summer of 2001. She married rapper-actor Nick Cannon on April 30, 2008, in a secret ceremony in the Bahamas. The couple had been dating for less than two months, their romance having blossomed after he appeared in her music video Bye Bye.

Carey is active in fundraising for The Fresh Air Fund, an independent non-profit agency that has provided free summer vacations to more than 1.6 million disadvantaged New York City children since 1877.

Overcoming Obstacles

In July 2001, Carey was admitted into a New York-area hospital and put under psychiatric care after suffering what her publicists called a "physical and emotional collapse." Carey had been preparing to promote her upcoming feature film debut, Glitter, and its accompanying soundtrack album, but cancelled all public appearances. The release of Glitter was subsequently pushed back from late August to late September 2001. Carey was released from the hospital after two weeks.

In January 2002, Carey and EMI (the corporate owner of Virgin Records, with whom Carey had signed a reported $80 million contract in April 2001) severed their relationship. Though the film and soundtrack for Glitter failed to generate the desired box office and sales totals, Carey reportedly walked away from Virgin with nearly $50 million as part of her severance agreement. In May of 2002, she signed a deal with Universal Music Group's Island/Def Jam Records. In December 2002, Carey staged a comeback with her eighth album, Charmbracelet

Albert Einstein

Albert Einstein was born at Ulm, in Württemberg, Germany, on March 14, 1879. Six weeks later the family moved to Munich, where he later on began his schooling at the Luitpold Gymnasium. Later, they moved to Italy and Albert continued his education at Aarau, Switzerland and in 1896 he entered the Swiss Federal Polytechnic School in Zurich to be trained as a teacher in physics and mathematics. In 1901, the year he gained his diploma, he acquired Swiss citizenship and, as he was unable to find a teaching post, he accepted a position as technical assistant in the Swiss Patent Office. In 1905 he obtained his doctor's degree.

During his stay at the Patent Office, and in his spare time, he produced much of his remarkable work and in 1908 he was appointed Privatdozent in Berne. In 1909 he became Professor Extraordinary at Zurich, in 1911 Professor of Theoretical Physics at Prague, returning to Zurich in the following year to fill a similar post. In 1914 he was appointed Director of the Kaiser Wilhelm Physical Institute and Professor in the University of Berlin. He became a German citizen in 1914 and remained in Berlin until 1933 when he renounced his citizenship for political reasons and emigrated to America to take the position of Professor of Theoretical Physics at Princeton*. He became a United States citizen in 1940 and retired from his post in 1945.

After World War II, Einstein was a leading figure in the World Government Movement, he was offered the Presidency of the State of Israel, which he declined, and he collaborated with Dr. Chaim Weizmann in establishing the Hebrew University of Jerusalem.

Einstein always appeared to have a clear view of the problems of physics and the determination to solve them. He had a strategy of his own and was able to visualize the main stages on the way to his goal. He regarded his major achievements as mere stepping-stones for the next advance.

At the start of his scientific work, Einstein realized the inadequacies of Newtonian mechanics and his special theory of relativity stemmed from an attempt to reconcile the laws of mechanics with the laws of the electromagnetic field. He dealt with classical problems of statistical mechanics and problems in which they were merged with quantum theory: this led to an explanation of the Brownian movement of molecules. He investigated the thermal properties of light with a low radiation density and his observations laid the foundation of the photon theory of light.

In his early days in Berlin, Einstein postulated that the correct interpretation of the special theory of relativity must also furnish a theory of gravitation and in 1916 he published his paper on the general theory of relativity. During this time he also contributed to the problems of the theory of radiation and statistical mechanics.

In the 1920's, Einstein embarked on the construction of unified field theories, although he continued to work on the probabilistic interpretation of quantum theory, and he persevered with this work in America. He contributed to statistical mechanics by his development of the quantum theory of a monatomic gas and he has also accomplished valuable work in connection with atomic transition probabilities and relativistic cosmology.

After his retirement he continued to work towards the unification of the basic concepts of physics, taking the opposite approach, geometrisation, to the majority of physicists.

Einstein's researches are, of course, well chronicled and his more important works include Special Theory of Relativity (1905), Relativity (English translations, 1920 and 1950), General Theory of Relativity (1916), Investigations on Theory of Brownian Movement (1926), and The Evolution of Physics (1938). Among his non-scientific works, About Zionism (1930), Why War? (1933), My Philosophy (1934), and Out of My Later Years (1950) are perhaps the most important.

Albert Einstein received honorary doctorate degrees in science, medicine and philosophy from many European and American universities. During the 1920's he lectured in Europe, America and the Far East and he was awarded Fellowships or Memberships of all the leading scientific academies throughout the world. He gained numerous awards in recognition of his work, including the Copley Medal of the Royal Society of London in 1925, and the Franklin Medal of the Franklin Institute in 1935.

Einstein's gifts inevitably resulted in his dwelling much in intellectual solitude and, for relaxation, music played an important part in his life. He married Mileva Maric in 1903 and they had a daughter and two sons; their marriage was dissolved in 1919 and in the same year he married his cousin, Elsa Löwenthal, who died in 1936. He died on April 18, 1955 at Princeton, New Jersey.

Ketika Aku di 17 Tahun :)

Tepat pukul 00.00 WIB.

‘Happy brithday,met ultah yg ke 17 ya,’’ kulihat rangkaian kata di layar ponselku. Rasa ngantuk yang masih bertengger di kepalaku, memaksaku membuka kelopak mataku untuk mengetik ucapan terima kasih kepada si pengirim. Kemudian kucoba untuk melanjutkan tidurku. Lagi-lagi getar ponselku tak berniat untuk diam. Kucoba meraih ponselku lagi, kulihat tertulis 1 massage, namun tak kuhiraukan. Selang beberapa menit getarnya membuat aku harus membuka mata. Sekarang sudah tertulis 9 massage.

Oke, sekarang aku bangun, batinku.

Kubuka satu-persatu pesan yang masuk, semua berisi pesan yang sama. Sekarang ngantuk di mataku telah pergi. Dengan gesit jari-jariku menekan keyped untuk membalas SMS tersebut. Setelah itu kuletakkan kembali ponselku di samping bantalku.
‘’Masih ada yang ingat hari ulang tahunku,’’ ucapku bangga.

Sekarang aku 17 tahun, semoga semua nantinya dapat  berjalan dengan baik,dan semoga di usiaku yg ke 17 tahun ini lebih baik dari tahun kemarin,dapat menjadi anak yg berbakti kpada kedua org tua ku,dan berbakti kpada nusa dan bangsa.dan semoga apapun cita” yg aku inginkan dapat terwujud amiin ya Allah. walaupun di usia ku 17 tahun ini tanpa kekasih,tapi yg jelas aku seneng bgt karena ada kluarga dan sahabat” yg menghiburku :)

Excessive confusion !!!

 Perasaan sedih akan membuat hati orang yang merasakannya seperti teriris oleh pisau. Bahkan hanya sekedar menghembuskan nafas saja akan membuat rasa sedih lebih terasa sakit dari sebelumnya.

Tapi Lupakanlah! memang itu menyakitkan… memang itu sulit dilupakan. Tapi cobalah untuk melupakan…. hidup anda hanya satu kali jangan dibuang hanya sekedar untuk merasakan perasaan sedih. Apalagi hanya karena patah hati! Itu nggak keren!
Hanya Karena Patah Hati? Anda sih tidak tahu sedihnya, Saya tahu! memang itu sangat sulit! Memang itu bukan hanya sekedar kumpulan kata saja. Melainkan pengalaman menyakitkan! Tapi! Cobalah untuk melihat sisi baiknya, Apapun yang ada dunia ini selalu diciptakan dalam dua sisi yang berbeda.
Jika kita melihat di sisi gelapnya saja, maka sedih adalah kata tepat menggambarkannya! Namun jika kita melihat di sisi terangnya, maka kata lega atau mungkin bahagia adalah kata yang mungkin ingin anda ucapkan.
Bagaimana kita bisa melihat sisi terang dalam patah hati! Seberapa keraspun aku mencoba, tidak pernah ada secuilpun cahaya dari sana. Well… memang ini sulit dikatakan dengan kata kata saja. Karena saya tahu ini adalah pengalaman anda, dan karena saya juga pernah mengalami hal serupa. Bahkan mungkin lebih sedih dari apa yang anda alami.
Tapi cobalah berpikir seperti ini, kebahagian ada karena ada kesedihan, Mungkin bukan sekarang saatnya namun suatu hari nanti anda akan merasakan kebahagian luar biasa dan mampu melupakan kesedihan dari patah hati ini.
Memang sangat sedih dan menderita sekali patah hati! tapi lupakanlah, dunia selalu berputar, dan begitu juga anda. Jika anda merasakan kesedihan carilah kebahagian. Jangan berbuat TOLOL dengan mengakhiri kesedihan dengan kematian. Itu memang menghilangkan rasa sedih dan patah hati. tapi itu tidak akan menggantikannya dengan kebahagian? kenapa tidak? lho anda kan sudah mati, bagaimana bisa merasakan kebahagian.
so bagi yang lagi ngegalau ,udahlah ga pnting juga galau-galauan nikmatin aja hidup apa adanya :)
