another NEw Life . . .


Ada gitu another new life?
Of course... tergantung darimana kita melihat dan mengartikannya.

Ada sebuah fakta yang hingga kini patut untuk difahami dan mungkin ditela'ah sedikit.
Fakta tentang rencana anak manusia . . . that's how I name it . . .

Semua manusia atau makhluk hidup di dunia ini dengan atau tanpa sadar selalu merencanakan segala sesuatu dalam menjalani hidupnya.

Semua rencana yang sudah dibuat seringkali meleset dari perkiraan atau bisa jadi sesuai dengan perkiraan.
Semuanya sudah ada yang mengatur... Tuhan pastinya... tidak mungkin sesama manusia mampu menciptakan rencana-rencana yang luar biasa indah, dan diluar dari imajinasi seseorang.

Meski sering saya berkata "again.. it's out of plan" . . . tapi tidak jarang pula saya bersyukur karena mengalami "out of plan" itu.

Setelah menjalani kehidupan selama hampir tiga puluh tahun, saya mulai menyadari, bahwa the greatest power on the universe itu memang belongs to Allah SWT.

kenapa harus menunggu selama itu untuk bisa benar-benar menyadari hal tersebut? I don't have the answer for that...  hanya Allah yang bisa menjawabnya...

bertahun-tahun yang lalu . . . apa yang saya rencanakan selalu sesuai dengan list yang saya buat. which is WOW! karena tidak semua orang bisa mengalami itu.

namun suatu ketika, Allah mulai menegur . . . "Vie, please ... you are a human being" yang pastinya tidak bisa memprediksi segala sesuatunya dengan benar.

sempat terjatuh karena sakit, saya kembali berjalan dengan tertatih-tatih.
TIRING!! tapi akhirnya saya mampu berjalan sampai sejauh ini. Subhanallah!!!

saya semakin sadar diri bahwa manusia sudah sepatutnya menyadari bahwa segala sesuatu yang didapat belum tentu menjadi miliknya selamanya.

merasakan kehilangan bukanlah hal yang baru untuk diceritakan, namun layak untuk diingat kembali karena ketika kita kehilangan sesuatu.. sebenarnya Allah menggantinya dengan sesuatu yang lebih indah. TRUST ME!!!

Have fun with every single moment you have, then you'll feel the difference... ^___________^

. . . Bahkan satu titik-pun bermakna dalam . . .

Suatu ketika, di kelas Pasca Sarjana, mata kuliah Teaching Practice

Pagi itu kami sedang berdiskusi tentang RPP seorang teman dengan mata kuliah Reading.

Dosen saya bertanya "kenapa titiknya harus tiga?"
Saya menjawab dengan lantang "karena itu standard dalam pembuatan soal ma'am"
Beliau tidak lantas mengiyakan, beliau menambahkan pertanyaan "apa alasan dibalik jumlah titik yang hanya tiga?"
Beliau terlihat cukup emosional, hingga ahirnya ada seorang teman yang mengangkat tangan dan berujar "Titik yang dipakai hanya tiga karena di akhir soal sudah terdapat satu titik, yang artinya jumlah titik ada empat."
Beliau tersenyum lega karena pada akhirnya beliau tak lagi harus menjelaskan sesuatu yang sebenarny sudah kami pelajari pada perkuliahan semester 1.


Titik . . . .

it's a very simple thing but it has a deep meaning, it's not only a dot, it's more than that.

Dari sini saya berusaha memahami suatu fakta tentang saya, yang selama ini seringkali memperhatikan detil-detil yang mungkin bagi orang lain tak berarti apapun.

Selagi masih dalam batas wajar, apa yang selama ini saya lakukan ternyata memang harus dilakukan.

This Is It.. part 6

It was saturday, and like the other days, she went to her office, where she worked as an editor, a job that took her busy all the time.
She liked that job very much, well, she did not like it at the first time, but then she fell in love with it. She helped many new writers became better writers, and she enjoyed reading many people's works.
She could manage her time between working and having fun very well.

That morning, in her room at the office. She gazed at her computer sharply. She had to edit a journal that would be published internationally, for several times her right finger clicked on delete button.
Suddenly her cellphone rang, she ignored it and kept focusing her eyes on the screen.
About fifteen minutes later, one of her staffs knocked on her door.
She raised her eyebrows, and put off her glasses.
She asked: "What's up Clara?"
Clara said: "Well, someone is calling you, He said he called your cellphone but you didn't pick it up"

In a second she looked at her cellphone and smiled.
"well.. yeah it's my boyfriend, just tell him to hang up the phone, I 'll contact him later"
Clara smiled back at her and said: "are you sure? I mean, it seems he really wants to talk to you"
She answered: "yes, thanks, but I cannot leave this stuff".

the ONE


November 19, 2012



The shadow blocked her way
The rain made her run away
The thunder hit her heart
The wind held her thought

Her step swept the roads,
Her bare hands were shaking,
Trembling,longing for his hands,
While the wind was blowing

Love, what is love?
Dream, what is dream?
Destiny, what is destiny?
Justice, what is justice?

The zip was wrapped
Her eyes closed,
She ran along her mind
Swimming through her dream land

Flowers starred at her
Such an aisle in the churches,
The road is narrowed by hundreds of chairs
Again, eyes closed, as the fragrance withheld her

Eyes gazing at her
Lips smiling bitterly
Hands shaking stronger
Arms embracing her tightly

Her mind was none
Her heart was none
Her tears dropped
Her breath stopped


Embraces ended 
Her knees were weakened
Her body was chilled
Her eyes widened

Finding the one
Gone,
Left her,
Forever...

well...

sometimes
you don't realize... when you give too much to others .. there's nothing left for yourself..
but again... when you try not to give to others..
you'll feel even worse..

dilemma ??
perhaps..

a confession

If you ask me a question
"are you okay?"
I probably will answer
"Cool"
though my heart says "I'm not.. I'm trying to be okay"

such a complicated matter
when it comes to heart
at least that what I feel 

I never imagined being hurt
I never imagined being alone

However ....

time goes by...
I cannot control any situation in my life
everything seems so extra ordinary
beyond my imagination
beyond my knowledge

it starts freaking me out
it makes me feel like 'life is not fun'
it drives me think 'life is painful'

it takes more than 24 hours to realize that life is more than that..
it takes months to finally get the ideas of being happy is not always being perfect
since perfect never exists

I need a big courage from my own self to eventually believe that my mind is worthy
I should stop thinking about every issue in my life
so that I can get a better chance to change the things

well..

it's my confession about what I have been feeling recently

Life is actually not just 'being alive'
Life is precisely about 'taking and giving'

to me.. 
this time..
giving more is a brilliant idea..

and... saying 'thanks'
is such a marvelous thing... no matter what happen inside our heart..
