Saat Menilai Cinta






APAKAH progres perhubungan cinta anda tahun lalu?


SETIAP kali menjelang tahun baru, melakukan resolusi mengenai karier, hal kewangan dan cinta sememangnya menjadi rutin bagi setiap orang.
Bagi pasangan yang sedang bercinta, kenangan yang dilalui sepanjang tahun lalu mungkin lebih mematangkan fikiran. Apatah lagi bagi pasangan yang pernah gagal dalam percintaan.
Mereka menganggap tahun yang dilalui umpama suatu pengajaran yang membawa ke arah kehidupan yang lebih bermakna.
Menyentuh soal cinta, jangan pula anda lupa melakukan perubahan kepada diri dengan meletakkan keazaman yang tinggi dalam hal-hal melibatkan dunia percintaan.
Ikuti tip-tip yang disenaraikan di bawah:
1. Lupakan masa lalu
Anda bukanlah insan yang pernah dikhianati, dibenci mahupun ditinggalkan menjelang hari pernikahan. Setiap perkara yang dilalui sepanjang kehidupan lalu harus dijadikan pengajaran. Tetapi, jangan biarkan pengalaman buruk anda pada masa lampau mempengaruhi hubungan yang sedang terjalin.
Jangan biarkan hal-hal positif dan menyenangkan anda dengan pasangan bertukar gara-gara terlalu asyik membuat perbandingan dari tahun ke tahun. Ibaratkan hubungan yang baru dijalinkan itu seperti kertas putih yang siap dicorak.
2. Temui ramai orang
Bekerja di bawah satu bumbung yang sama atau tinggal berhampiran dengan kediaman anda tidak bermakna dapat membantu anda menemui calon kekasih yang berpotensi, kecuali seorang teman yang sudah lama dikenali. Jalinkan hubungan cinta dengan seorang teman yang boleh membawa anda ke arah dunia persahabatan yang lebih bermakna.
Keluarlah dari zon selesa anda. Sekiranya selama ini anda kerap ke pusat gimnasium selepas pulang dari tempat kerja, namun pada tahun ini, bangunlah pada awal pagi dan lakukan rutin harian dengan melaksanakan segala tugasan yang lebih menyihatkan. Lebih berkesan, ikuti kursus atau motivasi yang melibatkan pesertanya terdiri di kalangan lelaki dan wanita.
3. Ubah penampilan
Sudah tiba masanya anda meninggalkan gaya penampilan lama. Tidak salah sekiranya anda mengeluarkan wang yang lebih semata-mata untuk mengubah stail rambut terkini. Kunjungi salon dan bawalah contoh model rambut daripada majalah sekiranya perlu mendapat keterangan.
Demikian pula dalam hal berkaitan pakaian dan aksesori. Pilih baju berwarna cerah dan bermotifkan corak yang menarik agar anda kelihatan menonjol pada setiap masa.
4. Jangan terburu-buru
Menemui cinta baru mungkin mendatangkan kesan positif. Tetapi, jangan pula anda terus membawanya berjumpa dengan seluruh ahli keluarga. Tunggulah sehingga waktu yang tepat dan jangan sesekali merosakkan hubungan yang baru dibina itu. Hindari berbicara tentang masa depan saat hubungan baru berumur setahun jagung. Nikmatilah waktu perkenalan ini untuk memantapkan hati anda dan pasangan.
5. Jangan terlalu memilih
Setiap orang pasti ada kekurangannya, jadi apabila anda begitu obses akan kekurangan pasangan, mungkin anda sukar untuk menemui cinta baru. Sekurang-kurangnya selidik dulu kelebihan yang ada pada dirinya.
6. Buat keputusan
Cinta kerana paksaan akan membawa duka pada kemudian hari. Jangan takut untuk meluahkan apa yang terpendam kerana ia boleh mendatangkan kesan buruk dalam perhubungan. Oleh itu, lakukan keputusan yang berpihak kepada diri dan jangan takut katakan 'tidak'.

Prince William seals engagement with Diana’s ring


Britain’s Prince William and his fiancée Kate Middleton pose for photographers during a photocall to mark their engagement in London on Wednesday.




Prince William and his fiancee Kate Middleton received a flood of congratulatory messages on Wednesday after announcing their engagement, with the wedding planned for spring or summer next year. Middleton said that she was daunted but happy to be marrying into Britain’s royal family after William had proposed, offering her his late mother Diana’s engagement ring.

The couple announced their forthcoming marriage on Tuesday after an eight-year courtship, much of it in the full glare of the world’s media.

When the couple marry in London next year, it will be Britain’s biggest royal wedding since William’s parents Prince Charles and the then Lady Diana Spencer married at Saint Paul’s Cathedral in July 1981.

William said that the sapphire-and-diamond ring his father, the heir to the throne, gave Diana in 1981 was “very special to me.”

Giving Kate the ring “was my way of making sure that my mother didn’t miss out on today and the excitement and the fact that we’re going to spend the rest of our lives together” he added.

Blinking in the glare of flashbulbs, Middleton told a press conference at Saint James’ Palace that the second-in-line to the throne had proposed during a holiday in Kenya three weeks ago. He was a “true romantic,” she said of the prince.

“It’s quite a daunting prospect but hopefully I’ll take it in my stride. But William’s a great teacher, so hopefully he’ll be able to help me along the way,” added the 28-year-old.

The official announcement ended feverish speculation about when William would get engaged to Middleton, the daughter of a wealthy businessman.

Middleton and William met in 2001 at Saint Andrews University in Scotland. They broke up briefly in 2007 but soon got back together.

Prince Charles said that he was “thrilled” at the engagement, joking, “They have been practicing long enough.”

Queen Elizabeth II and her husband Prince Philip were “absolutely delighted,” Buckingham Palace said.

William described the moment he proposed in a television interview later on Tuesday.

“We had a little private time away together with some friends and I just decided that it was the right time,” the prince said.

He added that he had carried the ring around in his rucksack “for about three weeks” before proposing.

When asked if they planned to have children, William said, “We want a family so we’ll have to start thinking about that.”

A statement from Clarence House, Charles’ residence and office, said that after marrying, the couple would live not in a palace but in north Wales where William is a Royal Air Force search-and-rescue helicopter pilot.

William’s brother Prince Harry said in a statement that he was “delighted that my brother has popped the question. It means I get a sister, which I have always wanted.”

Kate’s parents Michael and Carole said that the family thought William was “wonderful” and “we are extremely fond of him.”

Prime Minister David Cameron said that the wedding would be a “great moment for national celebration.”

The wedding will happen a year before the queen celebrates her diamond jubilee marking 60 years on the throne—and London hosts the Olympics.

Middleton’s father was an airline steward and later became a flight dispatcher while her mother was an air
stewardess before moving into the children’s party business.

Messages of congratulation were soon arriving from abroad.

Canadian Prime Minister Stephen Harper was quick to invite the future royal couple to his corner of the Commonwealth in a message of congratulations.

“It would be an honor to welcome Prince William and his bride to Canada in the future,” he said.

A message from the office of New Zealand Prime Minister John Key said that he was “delighted.”

Australia’s Welsh-born Prime Minister Julia Gillard congratulated Prince William, saying he had left a “strong impression on many Australians” during his January tour Down Under.

“Miss Middleton will no doubt strengthen this remarkable reputation and she has the nation’s best wishes and support,” said Gillard, Australia’s first woman prime minister.

And Japan’s top government spokesman, Chief Cabinet Secretary Yoshito Sengoku, told reporters, “It was truly wonderful . . . ”

“As I have seen on TV, he is quite a handsome boy and she is beautiful,” he said. “It’s going to be like a fairytale.”

Britain’s press was for the most part equally effusive.

“William and Kate will give us a monarchy fit for the 21st century,” said a souvenir edition of the tabloid the Sun.

The Times, part of the same newspaper group, agreed.

“It is at moments such as this that the monarchy renews itself and redefines itself for our age,” it said.
