Politics sucks... big time.

Been on Hiatus mode for so long.

Not having a vast vocabulary resources,
I mostly fumble with the right words to describe my personal opinion of a happening situation.

You know how it is.
Sometimes, a situation occurs that leaves you speechless,
... but that human instinct within you nerve wreckingly shifts around inside you,
… trying feebly to find the right words to explain to yourself how exactly you are experiencing your emotions.

The truth is, we are all limited by the boundaries of our personal dictionaries,
and especially in face of humanity and her actions (or rather, misactions).

Democracy, communism, dictatorship, socialism….
strip away all these labels and what do you have left?

A series of meaningless titles given by their idea-generators,
lived on by the supporters who defended all of these strange concepts.

And sometimes I wonder,
why do we keep making up ideas of what will make a perfect world?

Each idea gives birth to a legion of ideology-embracers who take things too seriously.
Each idea is guarded as if it were a life or death matter,
... and no occurence that can destroy the validity of such an idea can be allowed to occur.

And yet such ideas,
like the impermanent nature of everything in this world, cannot last forever!

So new concepts keep emerging,
dividing all of us into little pockets of disatisfied losers.
Actually we don't need anymore concepts, do we?

All that seems needed is already there, isn't it?
It's called humanity.
... but we keep ignoring it as if there is a better model.

We all want the same things in essence.
... but we keep masking all these needs with bigger, more eloquent words,
for something that tricks us into believing it is the most important thing that matter to us: that we are right, I am right, and you are wrong, isn't it?

So where do we go from here?

Bucket List

Yep. Been hearing a lot about people dropped dead suddenly. Mulai dari si Adjie Masaid, babenya si Joshua, then just now Emma's friend juga Dadaism died of heart attack. She was 29 years old, just got ,arrayed last October. Life is so fragile. That's why I really hate Andi each time I have to remind him over and over again about healthy lifestyle. Anyway, decided to make a bucket list for myself. 1. Back to NZ 2. Sky dive 3. Vacation to Russia 4.

Karet tengsin dijual Hmmm....... Belon kepikiran yg lawn. Nanti di update lg deh

Lavender and Butterfly

My very first (and probably my last) tattoo. Why lavender ?  Because I love the smell.  I love the colour.  Lavender is pretty much the only plant that stays alive in my garden. It thrives in pretty much any weather with very little care. It lives with a big bunch of other lavenders but it can also lives on its own little bundle. It shows strength, and grace. Butterfly means beauty. Not just superficial beauty... but beauty after a storm. Beauty that was earned.  Like, after it went through struggles from a cocoon. Plus, you see butterfly (normally) in a great weather. Adds the beauty to the surroundings, like a balance in the universe.  Psalm 23:6 , is what I really resonate in my life.  That no matter what, no matter where, no matter how many bad decisions I’ve made.... God’s goodness and mercy is always with me. That I’m okay. That the God who made the universe loves me still.  That regardless how fucked up I am, His goodness and mercy is always wi...

A Wife's Heart

Postingan kali ini buat Andi. Feel so blessed beyond words punya suami kaya beliau. Walo banyak rese n nyebelinnya juga. He works really hard. I mean REALLY hard. I know I've complained about him being too busy, but lately he changed. Yes, dia masih sibuk banget di kantor. Yes, dia masih suka 'nyetrap' gw di mobil suru tunggu. Tapi I know that family is his top priority. The house is almost done. Andi spent hours last Sat and Sun buat bebersih rumah. Gw ga boleh ikut. "masih debuan banget" - gitu katanya. He knows Im allergic to dust and frankly, what can a pregnant woman possibly do? Ga mungkin juga kan gw ngangkat2 furniture. Naek tangga aja suka engap. Dapet laporan dari Otoy, Andi ngangkat2 barang ampe mukanya merah, ampe kringetan ngeces2... Gw tau dia pasti cape banget. Tapi begitu pulang he brought nothing but his big, warm smile. "Udah. Nanti gw sekali lagi kesana, finalize bersih2 - then you can come. Tuh gw beliin kelapa, mau diminum sekarang ga?...
