See beyond the visible

... God never turn away from you even in a second. He counts all of your investments in life, He counts every lost. It's not this world who will return it for you. Only God will do... He is the only one who determines how much blessing running in your life. So live by the standard of God, and not by this world’s values. He is the source of faith and hope. in Him, you will find yourself aim for the gold and not the silver

A Movie inspires me through the end of writing

it is about dolphin named winter that lost her tail. 

When all say it is hopeless... she has to learn to live, to survive.

"None has ever been known for losing the entire tail and survive"

well... none has ever been losing the entire tale, and survive... but we can

Why Purple?

Some people have been asked me on why i choose purple as my color.
I'm not gonna lie that purple (the dusty one actually) is my favorite color lately.
I even doesn't know what it means or symbolizes. They say purple relates to wisdom, dignity, independence, and creativity. Even some say it has something to do with royalty and magic. Other say that purple can rebalance your life and bring a peaceful mind. But i don't really believe on things like that personally.

But i do know that purple is the shortest wavelength of visible light. Thus, it has the highest frequency and travel the largest distance among the other visible colors. And that's how i wanna make this book meaningful. Hope this color inspires the same attitude towards the readers, as it does to me. The shortest (wavelength) doesn't mean the weakest.

on the making

"to ensure someone's loyalty to you isn't by building fence surrounding them, it's by let the door wide open for them to go. If they stay, means they're faithful to you. if they leave you, then you should may even let them go. why would ask and force someone to stay with you if in fact (s)he doesn't even want to? the least you can do if you love her/him, is to let her/him go get her/his own happiness"

Skyscraper

Skies are crying
I am watching
Catching teardrops in my hands
Only silence as it's ending, like we never had a chance
Do you have to, make me feel like there is nothing left of me?

As the smoke clears
I awaken, and untangle you from me
Would it make you, feel better to watch me while I bleed?
All my windows, still are broken
But I'm standing on my feet


You can take everything I have
You can break everything I am
Like i'm made of glass
Like i'm made of paper
Go on and try to tear me down
I will be rising from the ground
Like a skyscraper!
Like a skyscraper!

Go run, run, run
I'm gonna stay right here
Watch you disappear, yeah
Go run, run, run
Yeah it's a long way down
But I am closer to the clouds up here

"life always has 2 sides of coin. it's urs to decide. u can't influence what makes u fear or hate, but u can influence & make decision ur own. u can either FACE IT or RUN AWAY from it. "face it" doesn't always mean to challenge, but to admit the fact then decide u want to fight, stay or let go. "run away" is to deny that ur problem isn't a problem, create ur own justification. Which is silly!"

"there comes time when God will let you to do inventory of heart n mind. clear out less useful things which have taken most of the space of your closet of life and replace them with better ones. all you need to do is to let them go and prepare room for more good stuff coming"

"To forgive is to set a prisoner free after discovered the prisoner was you. Need to learn to forgive as it is both the giving, and so the receiving, of life"

"Sometimes people make you insecure by saying what's negative about you. But maybe you're just a diamond in a rough. Don't let those things bothering you. coz tho you're not a beauty queen, you're just beautiful as you. They who can't see your lights, can't justify you don't shine. They who keep you under the stars, can't keep you from touching the sky. so be nobody else"

"Let us not look back in anger or forward with fear but around in awareness."

"Forgiveness does not erase the bitter past. A healed memory is not a deleted memory. Instead,forgive what we cannot forget creates a new way to remember... change memory of our past into a hope for our future."

The answer lies in you

... So at the end of the day, I would feel what I feel and think what I think. It’s your feeling and no one gets to decide whether it is ok or not. There’s no such thing as “grieve too long”. People can take their moment as much as they need. No limitation on how long. There’s no right or wrong way to grieve. Some expressing it and share it with others to get lot of support, but other grieves in private. If you need to share it but don’t get the support you need, try to find someone else who wants to listen. Or, come to God and pray since He’ll always be there. Surrender to Him. Don’t be afraid to ask for help. But again, don't look for the answer from someone else. The answer lies in you.

No grieving is too long

People should have their time to grieve. People should take their moment and not to rush anything. Each person has different capability, different problem, and different self-resiliency. No exact time to define when enough is enough.

Time would tells you when would be the right time to turn around the situation and embrace all the bad things that happened. You will know when you are ready to appreciate the eggs that are already broken and turn it into a pretty good omelet. It’s your decision, not anyone else’s to judge.

Time to Surrender

There’s time when you need to stop fighting with yourself. Stop denying that you are having problem, stop resisting and against reality and start facing the fact, being realistic.

Surrender does not have anything to do with giving up. It’s to know when you have enough stay in the condition. So, it’s not about being inaction. That’s actually the first action you can take responding to the pain.

When I decided to let the feeling goes as the way it does, when I completely surrender to God and stop trying to fight to get out from the situation, no matter how bad it is, that was actually the first time I’m in control mode of myself, my life. Although I feel like a duck paddling like hell underneath to move on, swimming against the current… It’s hard, it’s a fight, but that what in control mode feels like to me.

Grieving is part of being a human

Although grieving can be life disrupting and create an –even worse- overwhelming sense of sadness, loneliness and fear, it’s still a part of human journey. Grief is a common human emotion, universal and normal. But when the problem hit, most of us force to rush ourselves to move on with life and as hard as we try to deny it, there is no way to escape from it.

Storm in the headline

When I start writing the book, I have not been fully recovered from the pain I have been dealing with. Honestly, I went through a huge set back in my life. I think it was the bottom rock of my –almost- 28 years of life. I experienced a major lost. I felt of being disregard and left behind by someone that is really important for me.

It was a pretty bad when someone like family, lover, or friend, that you think will trust you and choose to stay around no matter what happens, even though things might end up looking so wrong, suddenly flush you out of his/her life. 

But my story was a bit of a glimpse of what many people out there could ever felt. Some of them have a relationship problem like me. Some have a work problem, health, communication, family, education, or else. I know that many of you out there even suffer worst than that. Some of them have to deal with emotional and physical abused, went through some lost, disappointment, regrets, difficulty to forgive, failures.

Bad things happen, such as when people losing their parents, children on the accident or natural disaster, disease, losing your job, or wrongly accused. And everyone suppose to have his or her own story to share. Your problem might different than others. What I consider problem, might not yours to worry. But each people have his or her own concern and issue in life to deal with. That’s the bottom line. That’s the fact.

There’s a point when a storm hit, made significant damage and for a moment it was the only headline on the story of your life. You were trapped in a black hole and you can’t find your way home anymore. There were nothing horrible than losing your own self worth, losing yourself. It doesn’t matter when it happens, but I believe that each of us will go through a phase. Phase in life when a storm is the main headline in your cover story for days.

Note from the Author

Allow me to share a bit about myself.


I'm an ordinary person. Living in normal day to day life. People always see me as I’m a strong person. But, most of them don’t know that I’ve been struggling with emotional abused and depression. Everyone thinks that I’m in control, while I wasn’t. I faced a major set back in my life. And now I’m trying to get back.

For me, although living in grieve isn’t easy, I find that grieving is part of being human. It’s ok to feel bad or sad. But there’s point when we all have to flip our hand and take a different path of our life. Feeling hurt by someone else is a nature part of life, but to let us continue living in a dark side and abusing our own physical and emotion as a consequence, isn’t ok.

At one point, I realize that life and fate go in random magical ways, push us forward. Hard time is the way of God making us to learn, bringing us out of our comfort zone and taking us to the next level of life.

Hey, Life is an art itself...


Love,

it's a book about life. A book that i hope can help you seeing life in a different ways, in a better sense.
