#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?

#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...

#4: Places on My List

Day 4 of  30 days writing challenge. Places on My List Been obsessed with these places, and wished the pandemic soon to be over so that we can go there and enjoy life and love to the fullest. Cambodia I don't know why, been dreaming on going to Siem Reap  for about two years now. The thoughts of going there seemed exquisitely charming and the old temples--although some said similar to what we have in Jogja --look mysterious.  Ancient stone faces of Bayon temple, Angkor, Cambodia.  Photo: iStock (https://www.traveller.com.au/siem-reap-cambodia-things-to-do-expert-tips-from-an-expat-h1ju19) Maybe i'm a bit influenced by Tomb Raider and Indiana Jones , always love those kinds of movies (and games). I remember when I was a child, there's this TV show about treasure-hunt and stuff (I forgot the title, sorry) where the main character flew a seaplane in a tropical island looking for treasures, some in ancient ruins. I also preoccupied by One Piece , a superb manga created ...
