when the heart is right, then the way will appear.
I guess it took me 29 years to truly acknowledge and understand that.
I feel like so many things in life are in the process of sorting or building at the moment.
In the middle of it all, I somehow have this strong belief that great things are taking place.
That things will work out even better that what I planned or what I ever dreamt and thought of.
Let's see how it turns out..
Me : "Apa itu benda tajam, ya?"
Ibu : "Hmmm....coba dilihat dari jauh-dekat gambarnya."
Me : "Hmmm...Pistol ya, Bu."

I've met enough people to say that the world is indeed such a small place, and everyone is connected to everyone.
The other side of the coin is that life is very fleeting, and situations do change as the grass withers and flowers fade.
Never had I imagined being so used to relocating from one place to another.
Never had I imagined I would be such a strong-willed, hard-to-defeat person.
Well, well, they say sometimes God shares the end-goal, other times He shares the very next step.
The in-between process should be surprises that grow our faith and character for the calling.
Anyway, I promise myself to take drum lessons after I'm done with my studies, or if during the process, I already know my way around, I will take at least one lesson a week.
The final goal is to play Fourth of July by Fall Out Boys. ✌
Is it even a dream if it's not big and scary enough to shake the innermost side of you at least just a wee bit? 😉
I guess after all that has happened this past 1 year,
one thing I learn the most is to live in the mean time.
To fully live the current moment yet still working and holding onto hopes for the future.
Weirdly enough, despite the turbulances life throws, these calmness and steadiness are unshakeable.
My younger self would have been broken into pieces, turning into despair, and losing faith in the calling or in God's presence.

Dan bukan hanya itu saja. Kita malah bermegah juga dalam kesengsaraan kita, karena kita tahu, bahwa kesengsaraan itu menimbulkan ketekunan, dan ketekunan menimbulkan tahan uji dan tahan uji menimbulkan pengharapan. Dan pengharapan tidak mengecewakan, karena kasih Allah telah dicurahkan di dalam hati kita oleh Roh Kudus yang telah dikaruniakan kepada kita.
