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 my plate, he helped me to wash all those white thingy. What else? Many more... When we planned to cook, he always ended-up cooking the food for us. When we had movie time, he's the one who prepared the food especially from the scratch. He would pay attention to the nutrition we would take e.g., fruits, veggies, protein from meat and beans, carbs from rice - wheat - bread - cassava - yam - plantain - corn. He also helped me to prepare my lunch bento and sent it to my office. 

Dear Daddy K, thank you for these memorable things, it might seem small but for me it matters. Anw, we have a project that once we begin our journey as a family, we would drink jamu every day, eat more fruits (since I'm not really into it and I'm a fruit-picky-eater), and share more blessings every Friday to those in needs. Insya Allah.

Dear my future husband, I know you would read this one day. I know you would smile while reading this posting. Make sure it would keep your heart warm. And let me tell you a thing. I would appreciate when you present me something as a gift. But your presence means more, not only for me, but also for our family. That's what I learned from my father. His presence becomes one of the biggest supports that teach me about not to quit. I am tough, but I found peace when I'm courageous enough to show my sensibility and vulnerability. That's why I wept a lot. You love me, then accept me for who I am lol. Love alone is insufficient right.

Btw Daddy, once we have our junior, I know you would be the one who met their teachers for parents teachers meeting. What about me? I would wait for you in the library lol. Why? Alright lemme tell you a thing. In my family, my father would always be the first one who took care of the school needs. He's a working Dad, but he still managed to do PTC at school. What about my Mum? She tried once and it was enough to create a problem with my teachers. It wasn't a fun memory. So maybe your presence at their school will be better compare to mine.

The Most Precious Thing

To my fiancé, thank you for being a strong man even when hard times still hit that hard. Your 'cegil' is so proud of you. Dear Dadda K, to be with you has taken me to love myself more. Thank you for being gentle and listening to me and us. I have never felt less as a woman because I finally found my real power. Through the peaks and valleys, through the lengthy journey, I do believe the right train will never pass us by. In this horse year, let's be more kind to each other. Let kindness be the beginning of our story. Dear Daddy K, there were moments I might be afraid of losing us. The worries somehow spiraling. At the end I have to decide and take an action of not letting the hassle consuming me more. The peace, positivity, and tenderness are greater. This morning I looked at myself through the mirror. I asked, "who is this girl I see?" It instantly brought me back to you. I am loved, and your actions are the living proof. It's not only a love letter. I wrote ...

The Awakening of New Energy

This one week, my mind buzzed. I know I had a lot to express. I always feel the urge to talk to people and barely know when to stop. I love creating world with words. Words are playground to me. Sometime I could slide, hop, roll forward, slither, or simply sit and watching people passing by. It's not a bout fun, but it's the awareness of creating more and more. I will try to invest 1 hour each day to write, to think, to get lost, to be found, to express, and write again. Over and over. I hope there will be more people connect and read me. Insya Allah 🤍

Choices

There will always be the first time for everyone. The first time to hear, the first time to feel, the first time to move, the first time to breathe and cry, the first time to drink, the first time to eat, the first time to respond, the first time to play, the first time to play together and solve the very own problem, the first time to enter school, the first time to teach, the first time to talk and engage with numerous audience, the first to be and do anything. . .till it becomes one day. . .the thing that was hard and challenging, could become a piece of cake. It takes courage, it takes sweat and tears, it takes sleepless nights, it takes restless days, it takes commitment, it takes everything. Maybe it takes your happiness away either. It may seem scary and it may seem crazy. It requires self and stress management. I always have choices amongst these options. I commence to reflect. Back then, I love to  compare people, wether it would be worth it or not at all. I compare A to B...
