Mind your own business; don’t interfere in other people’s personal matters unless they request you… it keeps you free from extra tension.

I suspect that the most basic and powerful way to connect to another person is to listen. Just listen. Perhaps the most important thing we ever give each other is our attention. And especially if it’s given from the heart. When people are talking, there’s no need to do anything but receive them. Just take them in. Listen to what they’re saying. Care about it. Most times caring about it is even more important than understanding it. Most of us don’t value ourselves or our love enough to know this. It has taken me along time to believe in the power of simple saying, “I’m so sorry,” when someone is in pain. And meaning it.

In the Solomon Islands in the south Pacific some villagers practice a unique form of logging. If a tree is too large to be felled with an ax, the natives cut it down by yelling at it. (Can’t lay my hands on the article, but I swear I read it.) Woodsmen with special powers creep up on a tree just at dawn and suddenly scream at it at the top of their lungs. They continue this for thirty days. The tree dies and falls over. The theory is that the hollering kills the spirit of the tree. According to the villagers, it always works.

Pemrograman berorientasi objek kini sudah sangat popular dalam dunia rekayasa perangkat lunak. Dengan menggunakan 3 konsep utama, Encapsulate(Enkapsulasi), Inheritance(Penurunan), dan Polymorphic. Ketiga konsep ini menjadi landasan kuat pada pemograman beroriantasi objek yang dapat menigkatkan readability (mudah dibaca dan dipelajari), reusability (mudah dikegunakan kembali), dan dekomposisi permasalahan (pemodulan). Object menjadi kunci utama keberhasilan OOP karena mengurangi tingkat kompleksitas dalam pemrograman dan memungkinkan maintenance yang relatif lebih mudah terhadap perangkat lunak itu sendiri. Namun, masalah muncul jika di dalam object-object atau kelas-kelas yang berbeda terdapat suatu aspek tertentu yang unik. Untuk mengubah suatu aspek dari perangkat lunak yang dibangun, maka beberapa object dan definisi kelas harus dimodifikasi. Hal ini dapat menjadi suatu masalah yang cukup mengganggu, terutama dalam menangani perangkat lunak yang kompleks dan berskala besar. Kemudian dikenal istilah Tangling, yang artnya dalam suatu objek terdapat aspek lain dari objek itu sendiri, sebagai contoh pada objek bisnis terdapat penanganan loging. Adapula scattering yang artinya, beberapa aspek yang sama muncul pada setiap layer/modul. Dan kedua hal ini cenderung sering muncul secara bersamaan.
