Being Grateful for Good and Bad Moments

I am grieving today after experiencing uneasy moments. It happened yesterday. Being ignorance somehow could create other unanticipated issues. It is quite hard to keep myself sane. I feel like I have unaccomplished mission, to protect myself you name it. 

I stepped out looking for fresh air in the hope to help me feeling better. I strolled around the neighborhood for 30 mins. Let's say I was doing a 30 mins exercise. I looked up and the skies are bright, it's a full moon night. As if an empress, her moonbeam felt so soft, tender, and gentle. I stumble upon it. I couldn't take my eyes over the empress. Moongazing made me a girl who couldn't be moved. 

Indeed I need to detach from drowning into the depth of unenjoyment. I need to wake up, get up, and live the days fully as soon as possible. Excitement and sadness will always come and become the colors of our lives. It keeps spinning up and down accordingly. Just like a wheel, each turn will take us to places we never know. 

I had a deep convos with my younger sister the day before yesterday. I'm a touchy person and I admit it. Yesterday I had a well-spent Saturdate with my bebe. I sent him videos of two too-cute animated characters that acted cutely as couples. It brightened up my day since I could meet and hug him quite long, as if tomorrow will never come. We had discussed our plans subtly. Despite all the childlike glee, I also had a bad moment. I shopped online and planned to purchase a bag for my laptop. It costs 1 million rupiahs. I didn't notice it was a fraud until transferring the second transaction as a promo. They forced me again to send more money in seven digits number. They promised to refund in the next 10 mins. Alhamdulillah Allah still protect me with His Love. I tried my best to gather the energy I had today to report this event to the bank agent and cops. 

What I noticed when I had issues to cope with, I tend to face it peacefully. I had fear, disappointment, and guilt. A high tide ocean supposed to be wavey and moving towards the north and south, I was a motionless ocean instead insya Allah. I thank Allah for guiding and showing me better ways to regulate my anger and my expectation. I cannot demand the Universe for what I want. It will conspire to make what we need coming true, not what we wish for. 

I didn't rest well but the Saturdate memories assisted to soothe the night. I lost my appetite but I simply couldn't treat myself wrong especially on this stormy day. So I attempted my best to prepare good meals. I cooked spicy beef fried rice, boiled edamame, and ube with dark chocolate and walnuts. I commenced smiling and weeping in contentment. I was taught to be grateful no matter what was happening in my life, bad or good, mundane or extraordinary, all is in relativity with certain kind of spectrum. O Allah, alhamdulillah. 

I deeply appreciate the peace that is showered upon me.

Writing As A Love Language

:Vin Elk, Ars Magna, & Lady Loved* Lately, I have enjoyed writing a lot. Writing worked on me the way Dumbledore did while he was in Penseive, so he could experience his memories through other perspectives. He uses it to siphon the excess thoughts from his mind, pour them into the basin, and examine them at leisure. Writing has helped me to untangle my mind, examine what to deliver, communicate the messages verbally and non-verbally, and reflect on how this writing will evoke certain emotions or moods. Writing becomes the mirror that provides insight into who I am, what I desire, what I experience, what I value, and what I am not into. Writing becomes the language that deliberates my inner peace. On another level, writing could answer the quest that dwells in my mind.  I am glad to share what is significant for me right now. Being loved by the right person and people is heaven, and so is being respected, prioritized, supported, desired, and understood. The right person and peop...

The Essence of Learning New Things Every Day

Everyone basically has opportunities to learn something new every day. They learn to get a new skill or to let go of what doesn't belong to them. The cycle comes and goes. Learning something new is not only a shortcut to improve one's life, but also to make one's meaningful, and their presence could make the simplest form of change.  I was once asked about the skills I have other than teaching. I confidently responded to them that I have enough skills in writing, photography, and cooking. While doing my responsibilities in the class, I value the three areas will be beneficial for me in professionalism. I have unlimited resources to access them if one day, I could only choose one area to support me for a living.  As an individual who has to make a move every day, I see learning as a potential way that brings us to become more selfless. We can learn new things every day as long as we have the courage and willingness to be a beginner. A beginner carries honesty since they have...

A One Year-Old Bonding

I was having a brief and light conversation with my boyfriend about how to create more memorable stories, create sparks in our relationship, and make better plans for our future. What I deeply appreciate about him is that he never ceases making plans for us as if he knows exactly where we're going, the potential issues we are going to face, how to cope with hard conversations, and many more. Reassurance, emotional support, and acts of service speak louder than just words. In lieu of the conversation, we had opposite points of view on how we would build healthy relationships and bondings in marriage while each of us is trying our best to achieve our goals. In addition, I am aware of his endeavors to listen more, to be more transparent in making decisions, to welcome discussions, to work collaboratively, and to articulate what we feel and what we think about assertively. We want to find the best route that could accommodate our needs in particular. There was a funny moment when I sud...
