So today, I know myself a little bit deeper. I now understand my motivation, my deepest fear, and my tendency to yearn for something that is not mine yet and also forgetting those I already have. For this tendency, it's really surprising because I know I do that "yearning" the missing part all the time … Continue reading Deeper
Lemons
Hello lemons, it's been sometime since the last time life gave me a basket full of lemons. And today I received the basket again. So... I will sit with these emotions for a while. I don't have the solutions yet but they will arrive sooner or later. I refuse to host the long drama in … Continue reading Lemons
Weltanschauung
The book is altering my Weltanschauung ( world view). Probably the only history book that made me cry. After reading this book, I see Ompung Si Singamangaraja differently. I admire him completely. The title fits perfectly. Ahu si Singamangaraja, means I am Si Singamangaraja. The last words he said in his final moment before the … Continue reading Weltanschauung
A Fixer
I am used to be a 'fixer' at home and literally almost everywhere. Oftentimes, to the point where I walked all day with no energy left. I feel like I automatically have to smooth things out... If there's friction between my colleagues, I become that "friend" who brings everyone together, even just for a good … Continue reading A Fixer
Differ
Finally, I don't mind making her disappointed with me. Strange... But ... It's a big relief I'm here at this point right now. I navigate the world differently from her and I know she strongly disagrees with lots of my decisions. No .. I'm not blaming her anymore. And that's the point. I accept that … Continue reading Differ

Digambarkannya hujan bulan Juni sebagai hujan yang tabah merindu, bijak, dan arif menyimpan rasa yang tak bisa di ucap. Sudah jelas saya terpengaruh … Continue reading Juni 2026
Sunlight
Plenty of sunlight today in my town.. Sunlight is healing yes? And we have adapted well to receive all the goodness of sunlight. 😌😌. I remember growing up in a small village with also plenty of sunlight. From time to time when the heat is so severe, the asphalt road looks wavy. Why am I … Continue reading Sunlight
Celebration
Celebration of what is, that's my focus words this month. And as usual, the universe smiles on my cheesy belief, and since the universe has a very twisted sense of humor, they throw a lot of things on me this month. And I stand on my ground. I celebrate what is. I am good, and … Continue reading Celebration
Pause
Always, in a joyful pause like this time, a cup of tea, a drizzle of rain at night, I see beauty in almost everything around me. Almost? Yea... Almost is good enough for me. This momentary pause is not erasing all my problems, but these tiny slices of time remind me that I can rest … Continue reading Pause
