  • Brainy Quote ~ Oprah Winfrey 007
    Brainy Quote ~ Oprah Winfrey 007 “Where there is no struggle, there is no strength.” ~ Oprah Winfrey 007 ~ Ok "Di mana tidak ada pergumulan, tidak ada kekuatan." ~ Oprah Winfrey 007 ~ Ok Apakah hidup Anda saat ini seperti berkendara di jalan tol yang sepi? Melintas dengan kecepatan tinggi tanpa hambatan? Mungkinkah hidup tidak memiliki permasalahan? Adakah orang yang tidak memiliki persoalan hidup? Sepertinya, hanya orang yang sudah berada di liang kubur yang tidak memiliki persoalan lagi, karena mereka sudah tidak hidup. Bagi orang yang masih aktif dan hidup sampai saat ini, persoalan dan pergumulan hidup adalah keniscayaan. Karena dari persoalan hidup yang harus dihadapi tersebut, ada kekuatan yang mengiringinya. Seperti yang diutarakan Oprah Winfrey, seorang pilantropist, produser, aktris, dan host talk show terkenal lewat ‘The Oprah Winfrey Show’, berkebangsaan Amerika, lahir pada tahun 1954 (berusia 64 tahun saat ini), melalui quote-nya, ’Where there is no struggle, there is no strength.’ Secara bebas diterjemahkan, ’Di mana tidak ada pergumulan, tidak ada kekuatan.’ Seorang anak kecil yang masih kecil… ketika pertama kali berusaha untuk berdiri, ia harus berjuang untuk menjaga keseimbangan agar tidak terjatuh. Demikian juga, seseorang yang baru pertama kali belajar mengendarai sepeda, ia pun harus berjuang agar seimbang dan tidak terjatuh. Biji pohon yang ditanam pun, harus berjuang untuk keluar dari dalam tanah, melawan tanah yang padat menekannya. Dengan kekuatan tertentu, ia mampu muncul ke permukaan dan menjulang tinggi menuju awal. Pergumulan atau perjuangan hidup adalah sesuatu yang wajib dialami setiap makhluk hidup yang masih hidup. Bila ada orang yang mengaku tidak pernah mengalami pergumulan, kemungkinan ia tidak melakukan apa-apa atau ia sudah terbiasa dengan pergumulan yang berat.
