Ohana

Yesterday Mom told me this...

"De, semua manusia itu setara. Mau yang kaya, miskin, cantik, ganteng, pejabat, pengusaha, bos, semuanya itu sama. Kita masih sama-sama makan nasi, bukan makan besi.

Kamu jangan takut buat menghadapi orang, asal kamu ada di jalan yang benar. Perjuangkan kebeneran itu, tapi dengan sopan santun supaya nggak ada yang tersulut emosi. Emosi itu sebenarnya nafsu yang dikuasai setan.

Lihat Mba Tita. Dulu waktu SMA masih takut menghadapi orang. Tapi pas udah kerja? Malah orang-orang jadi menghargai dia. Mba Tita sampai bilang gini, 'Ma, Mama itu galaaak banget. Tapi ternyata itu emang buat ngebantu aku buat menghadapi orang.' Mama bersikap kaya gitu supaya kamu siap melihat dunia, karena dunia itu kejam. Nggak selamanya Mama tetap ada di sisi kamu."

Sebenernya, beliau bisa dikatakan sebagai orang yang galak, tegas, dan disiplin. Namun dibalik itu semua beliau mempunyai sisi yang sensitif, sisi yang masih memperlihatkan kasih sayang yang begitu besar.

Once, Mba Tita pernah bilang...
"De, kamu suka bingung nggak kalau menghadapi Mama?"

Gue diem sampe akhirnya mengangguk.

"Mba Tita, Mba Andes, juga kaya gitu. Kita nggak pernah tahu apa yang sedang dirasakan Mama, jadi harus pinter-pinteran kita ngebaca situasinya. Cari tahu apa yang bikin Mama senang, sedih, ataupun marah.

Tapi ada sisi positifnya juga buat kita. Lihat sekarang. Aku jadi berani. Mba Andes langsung bisa ngebaca watak orang kalau ketemu. Itu malah jadi suatu anugerah buat kita, De.

Oh ya, kamu juga harus bisa menjadi dewasa. Walaupun sebenarnya kamu itu benar dan Mama yang salah, kamu emang harus menjelaskan baik-baik. Tapi akhirnya juga kita harus selalu inget untuk mengalah terhadap orang tua, itu arti sebuah kedewasaan."

Sebenernya gue lebih suka untuk ngobrol banyak hal ke kakak-kakak gue, karena kalau misalnya gue ngobrol ke Mama, terus Mama nggak ngerti, guenya saking gemesnya bisa sampe nangis sendiri. Kalau udah kaya gitu, kakak-kakak selalu dateng buat jadi medium antara gue dan Mama. Apa mungkin karena perbedaan usia jadinya lebih nyambung ngomong ke Mba tita-Mba Andes?

Terus kalau misalkan masalahnya udah lewat... pasti Mba tita - Mba Andes ngeledekin gue, "De, ngapain pake nangis tadi?"

Ohana means family and family means nobody get left behind, or forgotten.

-The Lost Moment-

Alone I walked in To the place I'd ever been Once I was a stranger But then my heart said, "I wonder..." To the place filled with bond Here I was alone There I stucked Then I whispered, "I am wonderstruck" My first glaze Making my heart blazed Wondering why I got hypnotized My first stare Making my stomach a little bizarre Asking why I was so on fire Finally I realized, It was because of you. You, the kind of person that I'd never ever ever forget. You, the kind of person that's making me wonder. You, the kind of person I'd wish never lost the moment with. The new kid fell, To the other new kid once they were

I'll do it for sure

Thank you Mr. Depp for this incredible quote.

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

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
