#28: Loving Someone

 Day 28 of 30 days writing challenge

Loving Someone

When you truly love someone, you just know that you clicked with them. Was it the touch, the talks, the smile, or the gentle stare, everything was in line just for once. You can talk for hours and hours without even getting bored. You always long to be with him. You know you wanted to be with him.


Look into his eyes

As eyes are the window to the soul. You'll know you love someone and someone loves you back when you see the reflection in his eyes. You can't really lie about loving someone, at some point every lies will be revealed.

You can't force your love, you don't ask to be loved. It really doesn't matter how the world see your lover, in your eyes they'll always be perfect. Though sometimes along with times you'll be weary and it's hard to keep things precisely as they were before, but you've got to nourish the love you had (and have) so it will continue to grow. Still learning this since I've been through so many toxic relationship and it's not easy to trust people again. But you have to, and you can.  

I'm not really a good poet and can't really compose a sonnet of love. But I know that this is what I've been asking God about. At the times of my despair, after the wrecked previous marriage, I played this song over and over on my keyboard.

And believe it or not, the song is like a prayer as somebody actually came to me. It was him. And actually I wasn't expecting it. And after that, things just went swiftly and here we are now. He's like a total opposite of me, and we are what one might called a complimentary for each other. He has what I don't have and vice versa. And love is not about perfection, it's about trust, about accepting flaws, and to be able to support each other and to grow old together. I'm still scared and traumatised, yet praying to God may what we have (this love for each other) will be forever this time. Amen.

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...
