#1 : Personality

 Day 1 of  30 days writing challenge.


Personality.

Talking 'bout personality, I'm not really good in expressing my self in a place with high competition or where people are eager to show that they're 'it'. The more people show off, the more will I withdraw from it.

Anyway, I have a conflicted personality, at times I want to explore things and be expressive, but mostly i'm quite reserved--not really fond of bragging things or achievement. Maybe it's always been my nature since I was born as a middle child, with two dominant siblings; my big bro and my li'l sis both are headstrong and I've been functioning as a catharsis since day 1 (maybe this is for day 11). 

Diagnosed before with severe depression, schizo, and bipolar symptoms, I just glad I can keep my sanity intact, and no relapse hopefully ever again (this will be another full story on its own~ lol. Maybe someday i'll write this down). I'm not ashamed for experiencing what's in the past, I gained so much from it. Maybe too many. 




For my personality, you can draw the red line from my early childhood up until now. Have always been told as an obedient yet rebel child (this is how I became a complicated and conflicted person), yet I know that of all three (of my parents' children) it's always been my responsibility to straighten things up, but deep inside I just wanted to be 'ignorant', but fact is I just can't. Although my li'l sis have more responsibility nowadays in her hand, but she's stronger than me as a character. People actually listened to her. For most of my life, I'm invisible

Always knew that parents have their golden child, and it's not (and will never be) me. I was the least person to be considered in the house. Nobody ever listened to what I said (I literally have no voice nor authority). Always knew it, but the epiphany came after I was severely mentally impaired about two years ago.  Though they did take care of me during my absolute breakdown times, but they never really cared, or say sorry, not more than caring about saving their own face or at least get rid of their problem.

Oh right, as part of my conflicted personality, I'm an anxious person. And It's a sad thing that even up until now I'm still having suicidal thoughts in my mind. And I have a huge trust issues in me. But have been trying to put positive things in my life  (this perhaps will be a story for tomorrow, day 2 :)...) as I don't want to put another mental burden again and have been outspoken more and more lately, which is a good thing.

How to Ghibli?

That time of the year, again. Why can't life be more like Ghibli's aesthetics? It has been a while for me to be in my 30s, and soon I will be turning 40. What will one expect when one turns into a 40-year-old woman?  Why can't life be like Ghibli's slice of life feature films? Why can't we find ideal love like in those movies? 3 years ago today I still can't imagine that I finally found out that my (back then) spouse was a serial cheater, a swinger, and an avid liar. My whole life was crumbled, and my mind went crazy, like literally mad (will tell this someday when I'm ready). And briefly after that, I met a random guy, got married again in such a short time, and have a baby not long after. Back then, no one really cares about how I feel inside, my messed up mind is still there up until now. So, what to do?

#11: Siblings

 Day 11 of 30 days writing challenge. Siblings You either love 'em unconditionally or hate them occasionally . They share the same blood as you, they're your first friends. And it's not uncommon that you spent your days fighting and quarrelling with them at day and get along again at night. Your parents still mad at you but you already reconciliate with them. A brother and a sister As a middle child, I always stuck in between. My brother and my sister both have strong personalities. When they're fighting it's like a fierceful battle between Dragon Slaying Sabre VS Heavenly Sword --minus maybe they're both a bit antagonistic , none really chivalry. Brother My big bro is an amazing abstract learner. Why I said "abstract"? It's because he never did enjoy the typical learning practices in formal education. But when we're younger, different methods weren't there for children with superb or different qualities. Anyways, he's an avid lear...

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...
