HALLELUJAH


HALLE

Untuk seorang diri dari masing-masing kita yang hampir hilang pada diskusi saat itu, pejamkan sebentar saja mata dan lebarkan sedikit saja tangan kita. barangkali kita akan mendapati seluas pandang padang hijau-putih dan rumah yang terjamah oleh pendoa. Mereka khusuk melayangkan rapalan tersulit dan yang kita butuhkan bukan sekadar kamus bahasa asing untuk mampu membacanya.

Cukupkah kita cuma diam sambil melihat ke arah luar? pemandangan yang lain di sana bukannya sama saja seperti nanar mata kosong tangis anak yang terlentang menggapai dada ibunya?






 LUJAH


Halle, anak itu sudah besar. Kamu tahu jalan mana yang sering ditempuhnya saat pulang sekolah? Ah tapi kamu pasti bilang hanya Tuhan yang tahu. tuhan yang terjaga memonitori kita saat semua kehidupan bukan lagi sebuah pesta.
Anak itu anak yang menyebut tubuhnya pohon. Ibu bapaknya dianggap Tuhan yang mengatur garis-garis kelahiran di tanggannya. Anak yang melupakan semua kesenangan, getir anggur saat panen, juga limbung pada seloki minuman dingin. Anak itu yang dibiarkan diberi nama Lujah oleh Tuhannya barangkali cuma bisa ketawa lewat tenggorokannya.

What Does Friend Mean?

Before asking about what does friend mean, let's sit, ask, reflect, and be honest. How well we treated ourselves so far? Did we rest in an eight solid hour? Did we eat healthy food? Did we train our muscles? Did we respond to things around us with tranquility to gain the bigger picture? Did we respect ourselves with kindness and genuineness? Were we dare enough to say no when things weren't our cups of tea? 

Act of Service

Several times I asked my fiance why he rarely gave me flowers, chocolate, cake, and other things related to sweet things linked to Valentine's Day. And I think I got the answer now. I love to observe people, even somehow my awareness gone with no trace lol. I think it was rooted from his culture as well. He's patient enough to do house chores even if he had a lot to prepare for his works. Several times I went to his house, and I was amazed by how clean and neat it was. He has no housekeeper to assist him doing those stuff, he did it by himself. Tried to wipe my finger on his cabinet or tv, and I found nothing. You know, when we cooked together, he didn't ask and force me to help. He needed me to just watch him dancing while cooking, listen to him singing song he composed by himself, and to show off how he seasoned the food so it would taste incredibly delicious. He also taught me how to take care of white blouse and T-shirt effortlessly. Unfortunately, since I had a lot on ...
