#21: Love

Day 21 of 30 days writing challenge

Love

Love is intangible, yet it's crucial. 
Love is easy to say, but quite hard to be done.
Love is when you give more and more but you never count.
Love is when you're receiving and receiving and receiving things without a tab.




Why is it so hard to be loveable?
Why is it so hard it's unbearable? 

Love is not only between you and me,
It's all about unity and sincerity.
It's about trust and loyalty.
It's about devotion and chivalry.

"And in the end, the love you take is equal to the love you make," Sang Paul McCartney. 
True, but sometimes you gave more and more and more and nothing good came out if it. 
True as it may, love has to be reciprocal, has to be in synch. 

When you lost the balance, that's when you know, 
That what you've feared of is indeed stalking by,
That what came out of your nightmares are true,
And you know, the end is better than to stay astray.

And as for what we have, Though grateful I am might sometimes I found uneasiness,
And drowsiness,
And bitterness,
But, what ever it is, it is.

Not that I don't want to be flowery,
Or be happy as a bee,
Or not let my gloom to be bloom,
Yet, it is still what it is.

Embrace what you have,
As happy as it gets,
And just hope that perhaps,
Those feelings will last.

Ikhtiar

Ingin sekedar berbagi cerita tentang perjalanan hidup sampai mendapatkan yang dinanti-nanti.  Alhamdulillah dua tahun slowdown karena pandemi membawa berkah. Setahun setelah menikah, kami dianugerahi seorang putri yang sangat kami sayangi. Perjalanan  mendapatkannya bisa dibilang tidak mudah. Akumulasi semua pengalaman sebelumnya, banyak rintangan yang dihadapi. Namun syukurlah Allah memberikan amanah kepada kami sekeluarga.  Berkah Habatussaudah Ternyata hadits Rasulullah tentang keutamaan Habatussaudah atau jinten hitam sebagai obat segala penyakit* benar adanya. Jinten hitam ini adalah faktor pembeda utama, selain suami yang sangat sabar dan waktu di rumah yang lebih panjang karena work from home (wfh) . Setelah menikah dengan suami yang penyabar ini, saya disarankan oleh adik saya untuk berikhtiar dengan cara mengkonsumsi 7 (tujuh) butir Habatussaudah/jinten hitam yang sudah disangrai dan madu setiap hari. Cukup tujuh butir, tidak perlu banyak-banyak karena Habatuss...

Mama Drama (yang tercinta)

Selain MLM dan rokok, ada satu hal lagi yang saya bener-bener ga tahan: Mama Drama.  ------- (Warning: postingan ini bikin emak-emak hardchore kejang-kejang. Use it wisely. 😂  Move along at your own risk. ) ------- Semua ibu-ibu baru ini (seumuran sama saya) kelakuannya sangat tipikal di media sosial macam facebook dan path. Terlalu banyak membagi informasi mengenai anak-anaknya dan sangat sangat sangat emosional jika diingatkan ( mama bear will bite you to death! ). Saya sampai pada satu titik dimana saya sangat yakin bahwa mungkin dulu saya tidak benar-benar berteman dengan mereka, karena jelas sekali saya di luar lingkaran mereka (dari segi bahasa, kehidupan, dan persepsi) (Semua ilustrasi saya hapus karena yang punya drama emosi..) Panggilan tipikal: si anu mamanya anu Yang bikin saya paling sadar kalo saya bukan temannya lagi itu adalah saat saya lihat statusnya dan komen-komen di statusnya, semua orang adalah mama/papa/ayah/bunda/kakek/nenek dari nama si...

The Revelation of the Infamous Hags

Well, well, well. What d'you know? At first you were their friends, but right there at the moment they don't need you anymore or despise you with hatred and envy you with all their might--you just turn into the object of their cruelty! Disguise in their keen elegance, never did they actually revealed their truer form infront of promising 'customers'. They even can agitate people into hating each other--and some people really take it personally and even put grudge to people they don't even know! Sick isn't it? Well, they DO dressed nice, covering all that evil devilish thoughts behind their artificial skins. But once you see them, they're nothing but ol' malicious hags, lurking around for prey. Their smiles aren't genuine. Their acts always for the sake of themselves and themselves only--whether to bossing around, getting ETERNAL youth (?), or just bullying others that potentially harmful for their mighty being. I wonder why some people still can'...
