· Bagi orang yang berpikir, berkas-berkas masa lalu akan dilipat dan tak pernah dilihat kembali. Cukup ditutup rapat-rapat, lalu disimpan dalam ruang pengelupaan, diikat dengan tali yang kuat dalam penjara pengacuhan selamanya atau diletakkan di dalam ruang gelap yang tak tertembus cahaya. Yang demikian karena masa lalu telah berlalu habis. Kesedihan tak akan mampu mengembalikannya lagi, keresahan tak sanggup memperbaikinya kembali, kegundahan tidak akan mampu merubahnya menjadi terang, dan kegalauan tidak akan dapat menghidupkannyakembali, karena ia memang sudah tidak ada.

Sarah Winchester
Today we are going to look at one of more unusual houses in America. The Winchester house in San Jose. This house was built b Sarah Winchester the 19th century heiress of the Winchester family. Do you recognize the name of Winchester?That’s right! The Winchester family is the owner of the Winchester repeating Arms Company. The company that accrued it’s wealth in the business of manufacturing rifle, the rifle note and notoriety in American West. Let’s take a look at this rather incredible house that Sarah created.
She began construction on the home in 1884 and she created on unbelievable wild profusions of room, corridors, stair ways, doors, and window. She continued to add to the house until her death in 1922.
By the time her death, the number of rooms had reached 160 with more than 2.000 doors and 10.000 windows. You might be wondering what could motivate someone to build such a house. Well here is Sarah’ story…
Sarah Winchester was married to the son of Oliver Winchester. When founded the Winchester repeating Arms Company and made huge success of it, in 1881 Sarah’s husband and month old baby daughter dead, because Sarah’s husband had been heir to the Winchester fortune, on his death Sarah hearted the fortune. The fortune notwithstanding Sarah was be wasted it by the lost of her beloved husband and daughter in the aftermath of lost Sarah was convinced by a trusted of adviser that family miss fortune was due to the fact the family miss fortune had been obtained through that manufacturing of weapon responsible for uncountable death.
Sarah becomes convinced that the family was being haunted by the ghost of those victims of Winchester rifle to thwart the ghost. Sarah that believe were hunting family it seems that her plan was to build such a confusing house that the ghosts who were haunting it wouldn’t be able to find heir way trough it.
Sarah dedicated if the remainder of her life to adding on to the house in such away as to make to ghost to get lost and disappear. This is the story of how the Winchester house comes to be the way it is weather or not you believe in ghost yourself, you can see that Sarah did. The world of Architecture has one huge, very touchable eye catching remainder of Sarah’s belief in ghost.

My Love
Cinta ini tak akan bisalenyap walau terkena badai ...
Cinta ini tak akan bisa hancur walau akan di robohkan..
karena cinta ini memiliki dasar yang kuat kepercayaan dan saling mengerti antara dua hati..
Namun tak akan lengkap jika tidak di beri kasih sayang antarakita..
Cinta ini adalah cinta yang tulus dan jujur dari hati...
karen itu aku tak ingin cinta ini terhianati dan aku juga tak ingin merasakan patah hati walau itu sekali....
aku ingin cinta ini tetap ada mengalir dengan mengikuti waktu,
jika Allah mengizinkan Q ingin menikah dengannya dan menjadi pendamping hidupnya di dunia maupun di akhirat....
Amiiiinn........(^_^)
