Mantras

Lately I've been thinking about me being so dependent to my Creator, Allah. Prayers for me are a constant dialog between me and Him. Allah for me is everything. He has the role as parents to me, a psychologist, a friend, a leader, a brother and a sister, a colleague, a teacher, a lover, a neighbor, a business partner, a peer in a class, a good listener, and many more. Whenever I face challenges, I will treat myself like a spoiled girl talking to Him, begging for His guidance and support that I couldn't do it by myself. It doesn't stop here, I also wanna be greedy in terms of begging to grant me unceasing blessings.


In this dialogue, I've learned that praising Allah is parts of the dialogue. So, not only taking prayers five times a day, but also to treat myself better in each day. By reciting prayers/mantras , I do believe it would become energy, not only to wash away the fatigue but also boost the awareness that I'm capable to bounce back.


So these are the main prayers I will always do especially before doing my routines. It means magic to me. Sorry, please, and thank you have a profound meaning. Sorry means a reminder that I will always make mistakes and treat myself unfairly, choose the wrong decisions, fail to achieve the goals, disappoint people, showing the impatience, consumed by anger, show the superiority, take things for granted, and many more. Please signifies I need people. It sounds impossible for me to just live and do things alone. I need people to build a good teamwork and I need Allah for His guidance of life. I put aside my ego and let go of the pride to surrender, so that I could walk on the right path. And thank you indicates I accept the kindness, the abundance, the blessings, the gratitude, the love and affection, and the rizqi. Thank you is one of the keys to multiply the contentment, the self-love that life is a gift and I have responsibility to take good care of it. Insya Allah it will be everlasting. 


Prayers or mantras itself lead us to a journey, the journey for those who contemplate, for those who sacrifice, for those who surrender. Prayers or mantras are for the peace.

Singkatnya, Aku Pulang

Kepada K. Aku mencitaimu sepanjang sinar bulan yang membulat sampai ke bumi tanpa dipantulkan ulang cahayanya. Air menggenang di tanah tapi hujan tertampung di kaca jendela. Langit berawan, namun bintang mengerdip, begitu genit berkelindan di balik matamu. Aku ingin mendaki ke atas bulan, memanjatkan hal-hal mustahil sambil memegang erat pergelangan tanganmu. Bawa saja aku, bahkan ketika kau sedang bermimpi, menghidupkan ulang harapan yang terpotong menjadi tersambung, satu-persatu, juga begitu pelan. Di perjalanan yang tidak begitu singkat, kita berkelana, mengarungi banyak kelok, jatuh dan tergelincir, menyasar hingga menemukan petunjuk dengan mengikuti kemana garis tanganmu menyebar. Tatkala garis itu terpotong, kita bergegas dengan menukik ke arah tebing yang masih hijau. Ucapmu, "Udara menjadi segar begitu kita senantiasa bersama." Maka kuikat kedua lenganku di pundakmu. Aku berdoa sejenak, bahwa meski bencana melanda, kita masih bisa berenang dan berpegangan lebih erat

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
