A letter of gratitude to myself

Hi, my body, myself 


I want to say thank you 

For keep going 

For the heart you keep beating
To let me live
Even when it was broken 

For every answer you gave me in my gut
To let me learn
Even when I denied and doubted it so many times at first 

For every emotions you made
To let me release some weight and lighten the heart
Even when I thought you were so immature at times and blaming you for that

For loving me back
To let me know I have someone to lean on
Even when I didn't know how to love you properly and kept torturing you 

For every time you recovered
To let me know all was well
Even when I hurted you, again and again 

For every time you came back stronger
To make sure I wouldn't feel the same pain and make me become who I am today
Even when you felt like dying 

For yesterday 

For today 

For tomorrow 

For waking up 

Until the day you can't wake up anymore

Thank you

It will be very long..

So.. Sebelumnya makasih udah nyempetin waktu buat baca ini ya dan maaf karena ini akan terlihat sangat random, bikin kaget, berantakan ngga berurut, dan sangat panjang.. Btw, ngga usah khawatir, ini cuma lu yang tau kok, karena blog ini belum pernah gue share secara umum, bahkan sebenernya lu jadi orang pertama yang tau keberadaan blog ini haha jadi ngga usah khawatir akan dibaca orang lain. Post yang ini pun akan gue take out seminggu setelah gue kasih linknya ke lu. Bukan karena apa-apa sih, tapi pure MALU aja kalo suatu saat blog ini gue share secara umum terus ada temen yang baca ini (walau belum tentu ada juga sih) HEHE AND I HOPE you won't take this post as your worst birthday gift. But if so, I'd like to apologize in advance.. I've been holding back this feeling I thought I'd never tell you this, but for me, unsaid feeling or thoughts (in any aspect) is worse than rejection/goodbye since it will always be uncertain So I think right now is the only chance I have S...

We'd never know the struggle they have

Bukankah kita terlalu sok tau, saat kita menganggap orang lain belum berdamai dengan masa lalunya? Padahal dia bahkan ngga berucap apa-apa. People tend to jump into conclusion that someone is still not over their past just because they tell you a story with emotions. People tell you their breakup story while crying? Oh they haven't moved on from their ex, that's why they're still single. People tell you their toxic ex-workplace story and now still haven't gotten a new job? Oh they must be still not over it, they must be having unreasonable high standards, that's why they're still jobless. People tell you their toxic friendship story and now have only a few friends? Oh if they already overcome that, they wouldn't be this picky. Padahal belum tentu keadaannya yang sekarang tuh karena mereka belum selesai sama masa lalunya, selesai sama traumanya. Apapun hal yang ngga enak yang pernah dialami tentu akan mempengaruhi pola pikir dan keputusan yang diambil seseora...

It wasn't supposed to be my competition

"Kenapa bisa sampe pisah, Sa?" Sekitar 3-4 bulan yang lalu, tiap kali gue mendapatkan pertanyaan itu, gue akan menjawabnya dengan: "Karena pandemi. Ngga bisa ketemu. Waktu itu belum ada vaksin juga jadi ngga berani keluar. Akhirnya gue kalah deh dengan yang bisa ditemuin tiap hari, hehe" Ya. Beberapa teman dekat gue mungkin udah pernah mendengar kalimat itu (lengkap dengan "hehe"nya). Jawaban yang gue rasa ngga perlu dijabarin lagi pun udah cukup jelas dan mudah dipahami. Tapi, setelah sekarang udah menerima segala keadaan yang ada setelah sebelumnya masih harus menghadapi rasa sakit, sedih, dan bingung yang bertubi-tubi dan akhirnya bisa berpikir jauh lebih jernih, gue justru mempertanyakan diri gue: Kenapa gue bilang gue kalah? Emangnya sejak kapan ini jadi sebuah kompetisi? Seharusnya gue ngga menyatakan diri gue kalah, karena dari awal harusnya ya ngga ada kompetisi, ngga ada yang menang dan yang kalah antara 2 orang (atau lebih), karena posisinya ada...
