Today, I have been reminded by one of the book authors and also my mentor, Greg Baer.
He introduced me 2 years ago about Real Love. When I was single, I was full and contented with real love therefore I lived in fullness, I received and felt God's love always with me day by day, I never felt so lonely. Years have passed and now God has given me new lesson in relationship.
Yes, I am in relationship now. Like other children, when they have been given new things, they feel excited and want to do everything they want and sometimes they ignore the guidelines and the rules, this is the same case with us.
When we are first in relationship, everything is so exciting. A partner whom we are longing for has come in our life. We do many things to please our partner and sometimes we ignore the rules. However, after we are looking back from the first we were dating until now, there have been good improvement. Though I can tell honestly it's still far from perfect.
We learn now how to control ourself, our ego, our passion, our expectation. Sometimes, we failed but after we realized it, we stood up and move on.
I can tell that I and my partner are two different person. Our character sometimes opposite each other. The good thing is we can compliment each other.
And after all, the bottom line is we believe in one God, we love and put our God first above each other. We realize that we are human with all limitations and we can't satisfy each other's needs totally eventhough we have done our best. Only God can satisfy our souls and our needs.
Besides, honesty is another good instrument for unconditional love.
Sometimes being honest can hurt others but it's much more better than never being honest.
Loving and forgiving can come from being honest.
So far, we are in good stage, yes there are times we are conflicting but after all we realize that we are only human with many weaknesses and limitations and we can't expect our partner to be what we want.
Today, Greg Baer reminds me about REAL LOVE, how we love our partner without any expectation and care about his happiness instead of us.
Thank you Lord, You are the creator of our relationship. Thank you for reminding us about Real Love.....Thank you for all the lessons we have been through....Thank you for Your forgiving and Mercy when we failed to behave like Your children....

KASIH SEJATI
Kau telah memberi terlebih dari yang kusadari
karna ku melihat apa di depan mata
namun Engkau sanggup melihat jauh ke dalam hati
Kau mengajarku satu yang tulus tak kupahami
bahwa yang terbaik di dalam dunia ini
telah sejak lama kumiliki
Kasih yang sejati lahir dari relung hati
yang tiada ingin memiliki namun selalu membagi
Kasih yang sejati tumbuh dari dasar jiwa
yang tiada selalu meminta namun selalu percaya

3 Months Anniversary
Last Thursday is our 3 months anniversary. Well, it's still very young for our relationship, however we have gone so many things for past 3 months from our working life, personal matters etc.
We are still in adjusting and adapting process to understand and know each other better.
Three months is still early to know each other truly who we are not to mention there's always difference between our thinking and opinion. After all, the bottom line is though we are different, we try to complement each other. Opennes, honesty are the key aspects for every relationship.
There are times when we fall into temptation, but we stand up again to walk and move on.
There are times when each of us stay alone and we realize that there's something missing in our life.
There are times when we can't stand alone and try to find other things to fill our emptyness and affection, but we realize and admit that it's not the correct way.
There are times when we are in different point of view and we prefer to reflect back our thinking and try to understand what other's point of view.
There are times when we are doubt whether this relationship is meant to be for each other.
After all, the moral of the story is we are still in the process of learning and adjusting.
We don't know what our future will be, what we can say now is we just walk by faith and love each other.
Oh ya, I was reminded by one beautiful song " Kasih Sejati "
