as soft as stone? nahhhhhh



A wise woman who was travelling in the mountains found a precious stone in a stream.

The next day she met another traveler who was hungry, and the wise woman opened her 

bag to share her food. The hungry traveler saw the precious stone and asked the woman 


to give it to him. She did so without hesitation.

The traveler left, rejoicing in his good fortune. He knew the stone was worth enough to


 give him security for a lifetime.

But, a few days later, he came back to return the stone to the wise woman.“I’ve been 


thinking,” he said. “I know how valuable this stone is, but I give it back in the hope that 


you can give me something even more precious.


"Give me what you have within you that enabled you to give me this stone ."

Once, a professor began his class by holding up a glass with some water in it. He held it up 

for all to see and asked the students, 'How much do you think this glass weighs?' '1 


pound!' ....'2 pounds!' .....'3 pounds!' ......the students answered.


'I really don't know unless I weigh it,' said the professor, 'but, my question is: What 


would happen if I held it up like this for a few minutes?' 'Nothing' the students said.


'OK what would happen if I held it up like this for an hour?' the professor asked. 'Your

arm would begin to ache' said one of the students.

'You're right, now what would happen if I held it for a day?' 'Your arm could go numb, 


you might have severe muscle stress & paralysis; have to go to hospital for sure' 


ventured another student. All the students laughed.

'Very good. But during all this, did the weight of the glass change?' Asked the professor. 

'No,' replied the students.' 'Then what caused the arm ache; the muscle stress?

Instead, what should I do?' The students were puzzled. 'Put the glass down' said one of 


the students. 'Exactly!' said the professor. 'Life's problems are something like this.


 Hold them for a few minutes in your head; they seem OK.

Think of them for a long time; they begin to ache. Hold them even longer; they begin to 


paralyze you. You will not be able to do anything.'

It is important to think of the challenges in your life, but EVEN MORE IMPORTANT to 

'put them down' at the end of every day before you go to sleep. That way, you are not 

stressed, you wake up every day fresh, strong, can handle any issue, any challenge that 


comes your way!

I rest my case

Enchantments

I can't help but feel super duper great + fantastic!!! And it is all thanks to my sayang...He bought me a few studio ghibli movies (Princess Mononoke and Ponyo). Cool right? He just know what i want and what i need...sweet sayang. 
Okay, enough with this sweet talks.
Let me get into the dets.
Woot2!



In the world of animation, two production companies tower above the rest. Most all Americans are familiar with the filmography of Pixar, but on the other side of the Pacific Studio Ghibli has been producing works of animated brilliance since the mid-80s, largely due to the efforts of co-founder and animation god Hayao Miyazaki. In honor of the US release of their new movie, ​“The Secret World of Arrietty​”, here’s a retrospective of the entire Ghibli filmography. Much of it is truly dazzling and well worth a look, so without further ado and in chronological order, here are the films of Studio Ghibli:
”Nausicaä of the Valley of the Wind” (1984)- Technically released before the studio was established, “Nausicaä” is still widely considered a part of the Ghibli canon due to the talent involved. It has that distinct Miyazaki feel, and includes the themes of pacifism, flight, environmentalism, and young female protagonists found in many of the director’s later efforts.
“Castle in the Sky” (1986)- The first official Ghibli release was a wonderful fantasy about a boy finding a girl who falls peacefully to Earth before teaming up with sky pirates to discover the secrets of Laputa, a sort of floating Atlantis hidden in the clouds. Gorgeous, action-packed, and one of the rare Miyazaki films with a truly evil villain. It’s a ton of fun.
“Grave of the Fireflies” (1988)- A powerful wartime tragedy from Isao Takahata about a brother (fourteen years old), and sister (only four) in the aftermath of the firebombing of their home in Kobe during WWII. Undoubtedly one of the most powerful films you could ever see, it will crush you. But it’s absolutely necessary.
“My Neighbor Totoro” (1988)- And on the exact opposite end of the spectrum we have My Neighbor Totoro, the source of the adorable forest spirit that Studio Ghibli adopted as its logo. This little effort from Miyazaki, about two girls living with their dad and encountering a few inexplicable, adorable creatures, is absolutely guaranteed to instill anyone who sees it with an electric glee. This movie will make you smile. Guaranteed.
“Kiki’s Delivery Service” (1989)- Probably the weakest of Miyazaki’s efforts, it says a lot that this movie is, at worst, pretty okay. It tells the simple story of a young witch moving out to the big city and finding out who she wants to be. It’s pretty slight, but there really isn’t anything wrong with it besides that. This is actually one that a fair few children of the nineties might have had a chance to see growing up.
“Only Yesterday” (1991)- A thoughtful look at a woman’s identity, this film from Takahata is unique in that it appealed primarily to older, female audiences. A great example that the medium can do plenty of things people don’t traditionally associate with animation.
“Porco Rosso” (1992)- Probably Miyazaki’s most underrated film, this tale of an Italian WWI flying ace transformed into an honorable, bounty-hunting pig man is weirdly enough the most closely associated to actual, historical events anything of Miyazaki’s has ever come. It’s utterly charming and presents the beauty of flight, one of the director’s favorite motifs to explore, in a purer way than perhaps anything he’s made before or since. “I’d rather be a pig than a fascist,” says Porco, and you’ve gotta love him for it.
“Pom Poko” (1994)- Takahata’s take on Japanese folklore, this tale of the tanuki may not hold that much appeal for American audiences. If you’re interested it might pay to do some research first, or risk missing a ton of cultural references.
“Whisper of the Heart” (1995)- The first Ghibli director other than Miyazaki or Takahata, Yoshifumi Kondo was intended as the successor to the anime throne before his tragic and sudden death a few years after he debuted with this film, a touching and inspiring look at the power of creativity and animation.
“Princess Mononoke” (1997)- The most outwardly mature of Miyazaki’s movies, anyone going in only exposed to the director’s more benign works could easily find themselves shocked by some brutal, violent flourishes early on. This might be the most epic film Miyazaki has ever done, a high stakes struggle between man and nature that makes environmentalism seem really cool while ensuring every character is a fully thought out, three-dimensional participant in the events, with believable motives anyone could understand. Would be worth it just for the insanely impressive visual design of the creature in the opening action scene. Notably, this is the movie responsible for first really bringing the efforts of Studio Ghibli to the attention of (the most observant) American audiences, with a celebrity-rich dub and a localized script from the pen of one Mr. Neil Gaiman. How cool is that?
“My Neighbors the Yamadas” (1999)- A very unique family comedy from Takahata that depicts a series of vignettes in a comic strip style that sets it apart visually from anything else on this list.
“Spirited Away” (2001)- If anything could be called Miyazaki’s masterpiece without raising too much of a furor, it would have to be this flawlessly-done story of a young girl whose family stumbles upon one of the most inventive wonderlands ever devised: A bathhouse for the spirits in which every inhabitant is a fully-realized triumph of the imagination. With nowhere to go and her parents transformed into pigs, she gets a job and embarks on one of the best coming-of-age adventures ever animated. The fact that it’s the only foreign film to win the Academy Award for Best Animated Picture speaks volumes.
http://reanalbenyahya.blogspot.com/2011/04/once-were-enchanted.html
“The Cat Returns” (2002)- A fantasy film that takes place in the world imagined by the protagonist of ​Whisper of the Heart​, creating a cool little “shared worlds” vibe between the studio’s productions.
“Howl’s Moving Castle” (2004)- It’s rarely the best thing for the production when the director leaves the project, but a very notable exception would be when Mamoru Hosoda’s exodus brought Miyazaki out of retirement to adapt this delightful story of a girl transformed into an old woman by a witch’s curse. She falls in with Howl, an enigmatic magician who embodies the director’s passionate anti-war stance, an already prominent side of him that was further inflamed by the start of US involvement in Iraq. Christian Bale, an admirer of Miyazaki’s work, actively pursued the role of Howl for the US dub. Sure enough, he’s a perfect fit, but the real highlight is Billy Crystal as Calcifer, a living fire that would fit comfortably in the pantheon of Disney sidekicks, and in fact outclasses most of them.
“Tales from Earthsea” (2006)- Probably the most divisive Ghibli film (in that it isn’t universally praised), this fantasy loosely adapted from the ​Earthsea​ series was the directorial debut of Goro Miyazaki, following in his father’s incredibly daunting footsteps. 
“Ponyo” (2008)- Miyazaki’s most recent movie is an adaptation of ​The Little Mermaid​, but you could easily watch the whole thing without making the connection. Perhaps the most childish of his works, ​Ponyo​ nevertheless contains a dazzling array of visual delights (a sequence involving running on waves is an absolute standout) in this simple but warmhearted story of childhood friendship and discovery.
“The Secret World of Arrietty” (2010)- Newly released in North America, this Miyazaki-scripted adaptation of ​The Borrowers​ series of children’s books comes from Hiromasa Yonebayashi, youngest director in Ghibli’s history. 
As their worldwide popularity continues growing with each film, Ghibli further solidifies its position as an animation powerhouse. With such a consistent track record, this is nothing but great news. Here’s to the studio’s continued success, and all the amazing worlds they have yet to show us.





Run devil run

http://reanalbenyahya.blogspot.com/2011/10/salt.html
After moves in to this new room (top floor) Yep...im the only soul here...everyone else have wisely chosen 1 or 2 floor. But i loves it up here.
Anyway, if Nera's here then its a different story...I will always sneaked up to her bed and clutched my knuckles hard at her arm (She never mind).
In the morning, we both laid there on the bed and i always starts first by saying 'Kak mimpi takut' and she will petted me like I did Gendut.
And i dont scared anymore.

Self centered people thinking everyone wants to know what are they up to...bla3..boring gila...why dont they keep a diary or something rather than blurting everything (some of them is really annoying and cliché) out in the open.
Please...don't be sooo fuckin full of yourself!
