"Dreaming of a simple life is the biggest dream of all."

I think it is. I would rather have a modest life than a wealthy one. And I have talked to lots of people who feel this way. “Go out and get a good job”. I was born from a simple family, my father was a businessman and my mother was a housewife. When I was in grade 3 at elementary school, I want to be a female pilot, when my female friends want to be doctors, nurses, teachers or artists, there was nothing wrong with that. I only graduated from high school, at the age of 17 I worked as a sales for medicinal products. 

but, as a time goes by, now I have a good work. Someday, I want to work in engineering at one of the biggest companies like Chevron, SKK MIGAS, or URS Corporation. I want to save my money from my salary to buy a house, get married and build a business later. Whether it's a business in the fields of food/beverages, clothing tailor or services.

In the other side, I want to continue my education to college. And if later I have a lot of money, I want to build a Foundation for children who don’t have parents for those who are worthy of life. When I get married, I want to have cats and dogs at home, to take care of them with my husband and my children later. I hope.

Lost Stars
Adam Levine

Please don't see just a boy caught up in dreams and fantasies
Please see me reaching out for someone I can't see
Take my hand let's see where we wake up tomorrow
Best laid plans sometimes are just a one night stand
I'd be damned Cupid's demanding back his arrow
So let's get drunk on our tears and
God, tell us the reason youth is wasted on the young
It's hunting season and the lambs are on the run
Searching for meaning
But are we all lost stars, trying to light up the dark?

Who are we? Just a speck of dust within the galaxy?
Woe is me, if we're not careful turns into reality
Don't you dare let our best memories bring you sorrow
Yesterday I saw a lion kiss a deer
Turn the page maybe we'll find a brand new ending
Where we're dancing in our tears and

God, tell us the reason youth is wasted on the young
It's hunting season and the lambs are on the run
Searching for meaning
But are we all lost stars, trying to light up the dark?

I thought I saw you out there crying
I thought I heard you call my name
I thought I heard you out there crying
Just the same

God, give us the reason youth is wasted on the young
It's hunting season and this lamb is on the run
Searching for meaning
But are we all lost stars, trying to light up the dark?

I thought I saw you out there crying
I thought I heard you call my name
I thought I heard you out there crying

But are we all lost stars, trying to light up the dark?

But are we all lost stars, trying to light up the dark?

Yang sukar ialah, ikhlas pada keputusan Tuhan.

Sekalipun dalam bentuk kepulangan.

Kemarin, tepat tanggal 18 Februari 2020, Indonesia kembali berduka mendengar kepergian suami dari artis Bunga Citra Lestari dan juga aktor tanah air yaitu Ashraf Sinclair. Jujur, mendengar berita itu saya kaget, bahkan sempet sedih banget. Padahal saya tidak mengenal almarhum. Tapi rasanya ikut berduka atas kepergian almarhum. Saya cuma bisa mengirimkan doa yang terbaik untuk almarhum dan keluarga BCL yang ditinggalkan semoga diberikan kekuatan.

Berbicara tentang perpisahan atau kepergian, kematian adalah hal yang paling ditakutkan untuk semua orang. Takut kehilangan, takut tidak bisa bertemu kembali untuk selama-lamanya. Februari 2015 lalu, papa saya pergi meninggalkan saya dan keluarga untuk selama-lamanya. Malam itu saya dibangunkan dari tidur dan mendapati kabar papa saya sudah meninggal di rumah sakit. Seketika nyawa saya seperti melayang ada yang hilang. Cuma bisa menangis, menangis dan menangis. Tidak bisa berkata apa-apa dan masih tidak percaya saya harus kehilangan papa saya untuk selama-lamanya. 

Sampai sekarang, kalau mendengar kabar duka dari keluarga, teman dekat, atau bahkan orang yang tidak dikenal sekalipun masih terasa sakit. Dan saya tidak bisa membayangkan jika itu terjadi lagi dan menimpa orang-orang terdekat saya. I feel like I’m the saddest person in the world.

Pernah suatu ketika, saya bertemu papa di dalam mimpi. Rasanya seperti nyata. Saya peluk papa, menangis sejadi-jadinya. Kemudian saya terbangun dengan wajah yang sangat basah, bantal pun ikut basah, saya sadari itu air mata dari kerinduan yg teramat sangat.

It’s been 5 years and still bargaining mode. Walaupun setiap harinya saya merasa hidup saya hanya tinggal separuh nyawa, ada beberapa hal yang masih membuat saya bertahan dan bersyukur. Saya masih memiliki ibu, adik dan kakak yang begitu menyayangi saya. Saya masih memiliki pacar yang sangat mencintai saya dan saya masih memiliki teman-teman yang begitu baik kepada saya.

Memang susah untuk ikhlas menerima keputusan Tuhan, tapi saya mencoba untuk terus mensyukuri hidup saya hari ini. Karena saya percaya, kita semua yang pernah dipisahkan oleh Tuhan suatu saat akan dipertemukan kembali di tempat terbaik yang sudah Tuhan siapkan.

Amiinn.
