Do NOT Complain

Kali ini topik pembicaraannya dialami oleh gue dan nyokap. Di suatu Rabu sore, gue lagi tidur-tiduran mau bobo manis dengan nyokap yang lagi dandan cantik didepan cermin.

Gue: "Ma..., UAS nanti katanya sekolah lagi usahain supaya Ac-nya nyala lagi, loh."

Nyokap: "Halah lebay kamu."

Gue: "Lahh, kan pengap Ma... Mending kalo ada kipas di dalem kelas, nah ini?"

Nyokap: "Kan bisa buka jendela-jendelanya. Allah udah ngasi Ac alam untuk kita yang lebih sehat daripada Ac."

Gue: "Yaaa...., kan tetep aja, Maaa..."

Nyokap: "Kamu lebay banget sih. Kamu itu termasuk beruntung, bisa sekolah ditempat yang bagus, di meja-kursi. Coba bandingin sama anak-anak yang belajar di bawah jembatan? Generasi kamu itu terlalu di manja, jadi cuma masalah Ac aja jadi diperbesar. Anak-anak yang kurang beruntung dari kamu, mereka tetep semangat belajar. Padahal mereka lebih ngerasain penderitaannya. Panas-panas, gelap. Mama yakin mereka yang belajar dalam kondisi lebih buruk dari kalian itu ilmunya lebih pinter dari kalian yang protes cuma gara-gara Ac mati."

Hmm, gue kicep.

Mama is right. Selama ini kita selalu merasa kurang puas atas berkah yang diberikan-Nya untuk kita semua. Kita selalu mau A disaat kita punya B. Kita selalu mau dapat enak tanpa usaha, daripada susah-susah terlebih dahulu. Kita semua ingin yang instan.

Gue sore ini jadi lebih bersyukur atas nikmat yang sudah diberikan-Nya untuk gue. Okaay, wajarlah kalo kita complain sama Ac yang mati ini. Tapi..... What about them yang belajar ditengah-tengah kesusahan dan kegelapan kolong jembatan?

Dear God, thank you for caring me. Thank you because You gave me all Your gifts.

Two Worlds Collide

So I was listening to this song last night. Pretty old, it was from Demi Lovato's first album, Don't Forget. The lyrics really got me... Well probably, now I'm on Demi's phase back then when she was really insecure with her self... *** "Two Worlds Collide" She was given the world So much that she couldn't see And she needed someone to show her, Who she could be. And she tried to survive Wearing her heart on her sleeve But I needed you to believe You had your dreams, I had mine. You had your fears, I was fine. You showed me what I couldn't find, When two different worlds collide. La dee da dee da She was scared of it all, watching from far away. She was given a role, never knew just when to play. And she tried to survive Living her life on her own Always afraid of the throne But you've given me strength to find home. You had your dreams, I had mine. You had your fears, I was fine. You showed me what I couldn't find, When

Satu Dunia, Satu Tapak, Dua Rasa

Dalam gelap, seketika mata menjadi buta. Alunan musik nan lembut telinga telah tuli. Di sebuah pengungkapan, mulut seolah terjahit bisu. Dan di dalam perasaan ini, hati seketika bergejolak. Diam. Tak bergeming. Merelakan angin mencium raganya. Hanya mengamati dan menjaga. Tak berani unjuk diri untuk membela hati yang merana. Andaikan kelak bumi dan langit berjumpa, Bertemu di bentangan dunia, Apa kita dapat berhadapan di setapak yang sama? Memandang satu sama lain. Dari dekat. Menikmati waktu yang sedikit. Menghargai setiap tatapan. Peluklah hangat setiap kenangan. Kecuplah lembut setiap perjuangan. Biarkan terjadi euforia. Sorak-sorai yang menggema di seluruh pelosok. Ketika akhirnya dunia kita dipertemukan.

Is 'Sorry' Enough?

We are way too far. The days pass as we started to live our own life. Separately. And.... I hate it. I hate to admit that I miss you. I hate to realize that I was actually wrong. If only, We can turn back time. To a year when we first met. I would rekindled us. And now.... It's too late. I need to hide. I need to hide from you as far as possible. I need to hide from this mixed feelings. I need to hide from the fact that.... I am flipped. I am flipped because of you. Your gaze, your laugh, your voice... So mesmerizing I can't even lie. Those memories and my faults keep haunt me. So, before I say good bye.... Shall you forgive me? See you when I see you, my reflection.

Art, Picasso, Drunk

Art is something that can makes you relax. It can be your drunk, but in a good way. Art makes you see thing's that can't you see before. It opens wide your imagination. I do love art. I can express myself from it. It teaches me how to use my creativity in a right place. I can do some sketches, but not so well if you compare it with Picasso. Here's a painting by Picasso, the most wonderful artist in the whole wide world. I'm forget its name, but it's so kewl. See, how much a painting can relax you? xoxo
