“People think a soul mate is your perfect fit, and that's what everyone wants. But a true soul mate is a mirror, the person who shows you everything that is holding you back, the person who brings you to your own attention so you can change your life.

A true soul mate is probably the most important person you'll ever meet, because they tear down your walls and smack you awake. But to live with a soul mate forever? Nah. Too painful. Soul mates, they come into your life just to reveal another layer of yourself to you, and then leave.

A soul mates purpose is to shake you up, tear apart your ego a little bit, show you your obstacles and addictions, break your heart open so new light can get in, make you so desperate and out of control that you have to transform your life, then introduce you to your spiritual master...”

Cerita cewek

Hari ini gw ada "ngerumpi" sama temen-temen gw. Para ladies, temen kampus, sebut aja namanya F dan E. Banyak hal yang kami obrolin. Dari hal jelas ampe hal yang absurd. Diantara banyaknya topik bahasan kami, ada sebuah topik yang menarik perhatian gw. Soal pacar atau pasangan. Si F bercerita mengenai pacarnya yang suka cuek kalo pas berdua. Autis sama gadget. Gw bisa bayangin tuh rasanya jadi F. Pasti pengen banget ngerebut terus ngebanting si gadget yang jadi biang onar wkwkwk. Lain F, lain pula si E. Bikin ngiri XD Konon katanya (kata si F) pacar E itu ngejaga bener quality time yang dia punya ketika bersama E. Kalo ada sms di biarin dulu. Intinya fokus sama E. Seneng banget ya kalo jd E? Wkwkwk#rumput tetangga memang selalu lebih hijau XD

Mirrors







[Verse 1] 
Aren't you somethin' to admire, cause your shine is somethin' like a mirror 
And I can't help but notice, you reflect in this heart of mine 
If you ever feel alone and the glare makes me hard to find 
Just know that I'm always parallell on the other side

[Pre-Hook] 
Cause with your hand in my hand and a pocket full of soul 
I can tell you there's no place we couldn't go 
Just put your hand on the past, I'm here tryin' to pull you through 
You just gotta be strong

[Hook] 
Cause I don't wanna lose you now
I'm lookin' right at the other half of me 
The vacancy that sat in my heart 
Is a space that now you hold 
Show me how to fight for now 
And I'll tell you baby, it was easy 
Comin' back into you once
 I figured it out 
You were right here all along 
It's like you're my mirror 
My mirror staring back at me
 I couldn't get any bigger 
With anyone else beside of me 
And now it's clear as this promise 
That we're making two reflections into one
Cause it's like you're my mirror
 My mirror staring back at me, staring back at me

[Verse 2] 
Aren't you somethin', an original, cause it doesn't seem merely assembled 
And I can't help but stare cause I see truth somewhere in your eyes 
I can't ever change without you, you reflect me, I love that about you 
And if I could, I would look at us all the time

[Pre-Hook] 
Cause with your hand in my hand and a pocket full of soul 
I can tell you there's no place we couldn't go 
Just put your hand on the past, I'm here tryin' to pull you through 
You just gotta be strong

[Hook] 
Cause I don't wanna lose you now 
I'm lookin' right at the other half of me 
The vacancy that sat in my heart 
Is a space that now you hold 
Show me how to fight for now 
And I'll tell you baby, it was easy 
Comin' back into you once I figured it out 
You were right here all along
 It's like you're my mirror 
My mirror staring back at me 
I couldn't get any bigger 
With anyone else beside of me 
And now it's clear as this promise 
That we're making two reflections into one
Cause it's like you're my mirror 
My mirror staring back at me, staring back at me

[Break] 
Yesterday is history 
Tomorrow's a mystery 
I can see you lookin' back at me
Keep your eyes on me 
Baby, keep your eyes on me

[Hook] 
Cause I don't wanna lose you now 
I'm lookin' right at the other half of me 
The vacancy that sat in my heart 
Is a space that now you hold 
Show me how to fight for now And I'll tell you baby, it was easy 
Comin' back into you once I figured it out 
You were right here all along 
It's like you're my mirror 
My mirror staring back at me 
I couldn't get any bigger 
With anyone else beside of me 
And now it's clear as this promise 
That we're making two reflections into one Cause it's like you're my mirror 
My mirror staring back at me, staring back at me

[Hook 2] x10You are you are the love of my life

[Verse 3]
Baby you're the inspiration for this precious song 
And I just wanna see your face light up since you put me on 
So now I say goodbye to the old me, it's already gone 
And I can't wait wait wait wait wait to get you home 
Just to let you know, you are

[Hook 2] x8You are you are the love of my life

[Verse 4] 
Girl you're my reflection, all I see is you 
My reflection, in everything I do 
You're my reflection and all I see is you 
My reflection, in everything I do

[Hook 2] x16You are you are the love of my life

Gombalan

Pagi ini gw telpon kakak. Gw berasa lagi jadi manusia paling abstrak. Well, sebenernya gw lagi butuh seseorang yang bisa tenangin gw. Gw pikir dia bisa karena dia sudah sangat lama mengenal gw. Yasudah, gw telpon dia. Ga pake lama setelah ucapan selamat pagi, tangis gw meledak. Kakak kebingungan dan bertanya kenapa. Ga ada kata lain keluar dari mulut gw selain "adek capek" dan setelahnya tangis gw kembali meledak. Dada gw sesak. Lumayan lama gw nangis heboh. Gw rasa dia mencoba mengerti tentang keadaan gw. Makanya dia ga banyak berkata. 20 menit, setelah tangis gw reda, kami ngobrol biasa. Gw udah bisa diajak komunikasi. Dan di tengah obrolan tadi gw sempat di gombalin. Seneng? Boro-boro. Gw berasa di tampar. Tiap kata nya bikin gw tercenung.

Kakak : dek, pagi ini dingin ga??
Gw       : iya, dingin.
Kakak : Tapi ga sedingin hatimu dek.

Setelahnya gw diam. Hati gw dingin? Maybe.

Kuantitas vs kualitas

Sebelumnya gw berfikiran jika hubungan yang baik itu di lihat dari kualitasnya. Meskipun jarang bertatap muka, intensitas berdua kurang, asal hubungan itu berkualitas gak jadi soal. Beberapa tahun ini otak gw terdoktrin oleh pemikiran semacam itu sampai beberapa waktu belakangan ini gw berfikiran tentang kuantitas dalam suatu hubungan itu ternyata gak kalah penting. Seolah tersadar dengan konsep salah yang gw tanamkan, gw mencoba merenung dan berfikir ulang. Cukupkah hanya dengan kualitas tanpa menghadirkan kuantitas ?? Hasil perenungan gw berkata tidak bisa dan tidak cukup. Hubungan yang berkualitas itu perlu, tetapi kuantitas, intensitas kebersamaan dengan pasangan juga di perlukan. Bagaimanapun kuantitas itu membantu kita untuk menjaga rasa hangat dalam hubungan berpasangan. Lalu bagaimana dengan yang LDR?? boro-boro diapelin tiap minggu,  dapat sms aja udah sujud sukur  saking sibuknya pasangan :p yah itu gimana pinter-pinternya kita menjaga komunikasi. Sibuk boleh saja, toh itu demi masa depan. Tapi sempatkanlah untuk memberitahukan pasangan mengenai kesibukanmu. Jika ada waktu bertemu, pergunakanlah waktu yang ada dengan sebaiknya. Sharing dengan pasangan, saling bercerita mengenai apa yang terjadi selama tidak bertemu. Jika perlu, matikan handphone agar waktu yang kita miliki tidak terganggu oleh pekerjaan atau teman ketika sedang bersama pasangan. Berikan surprize atau kejutan kecil yang membuatnya senang. Gak harus berupa barang. Ajakan kencan dadakan pun bisa membuat pasangan mengembangkan senyum termanis yang dia punya. Well, suatu hubungan gak ditentukan oleh banyaknya kuantitas. Namun, kualitas yang di inginkan bisa kita dapatkan dari kuantitas.
