#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.

obrolan setengah dua pagi

"Hey, kayanya mouthwash kita cepet habis ya...??" "Eh,iya...aku baru aja mo ngajakin kamu beli lagi..." "Lho? kirain kamu yang ngabisin..." "Lah??" .... (Kami berdua terdiam) Terlintas langsung beberapa bulan yang lalu, saat teman saya itu baru beberapa hari tinggal di kosan ini. Hp-nya raib, hanya beberapa menit saat dia tinggal mandi! Tersangkanya? Well, ada satu makhluk ini--bawaan dari anak kos baru juga. Entah dia sodaranya, ato pacarnya, kami ga tau. Tapi yang jelas dia tinggal tiap hari di situ, di kamar yang jelas-jelas disewa untuk satu orang itu. Dan well, siang hari, pas cewenya itu kerja, dia suka bawa cewe lain ke kamar... ( what the??? ) dan gelagatnya mencurigakan (ga kaya berteman...) Hmm.. terlepas dari gaya sok Don Juan or Casanova kacangan dari makhluk itu (yang ganteng juga ga, kaya apalagi, tapi klepto and ngepul kaya lokomotif jaman jebot), dia seenaknya make kamar mandi yang saya share bareng temen saya itu (di sini 2 k...

#9: Happiness

  Day 9 of 30 days writing challenge. Happiness I am everything but happy right now, I'm sorry. Not really in the mood to talk about happiness so today we'll be off topic. Not happy now. Just heard a heartbreaking news about work-related stuff, and the feel of rejection is similar with the one that I felt during my apprenticeship year, when I heard that my Studio Coordinator gave me an E so I have to do another year again (8 hours credits do it another year, he hated me gut and my window shape , so yeah I'm screwed). Always thought that drawing buildings isn't my thing, but I stuck there nonetheless. Come to think of it, my undergrad years were full of sh*t and sadness, there's always this lecturer that hated your design. And you felt like crap). I cried back then, on the rooftop of RRI building where my project management took place. I'm not always bright, I've been through hell. And it's not sweet. Anyways, I'm not unfamiliar with this kind of f...

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?
