The Only Exception

Hello World,

It's 5am.
No, I didn't wake up for all the right reasons.
It's this nightmare.
I wish just like any other dreams, this one will subside
when the daylight comes in.
But no, as reality downs, it stays.

It's just me.
And my stupid little wishful thinking. LOL.
While blogging can put me in perspective, it also reveals things.
Things that I was inclined to say out loud.
But lurking at every page, reflected in every words.
Well, I'm not doing that John Meyer's thingy anymore.
I'm not going to hold my roses while I'm asleep.
No no. No more John, thanks a lot.

Hmm.. Maybe to call things off before it happened,
like what I did years ago, was not a sign of bravery. Nor wisdom.
Maybe it just shows how I'm chicken out before a tough journey even begins.
Well, that's some revelations. LOL.
But just every rose has its thorns as a self-defence mechanism,
that was mine. I mean, to chicken-out.

As I am the free-fall kind of person, darling, you are the only exception.
You are always been my exception.
At least, that's what Hayley Williams said.
But not for long, I guess :)
I'm just saying, sometimes doing the chicken-escape is the right thing.
It hurts a little, but in the longer terms, it will work out well.

Hmmm.. I think I need to get some more sleep ;)

When God Made a Promise

“I know this is too fast. And please don’t ask me why, because I don’t have the answer. I don’t know why.” “I won’t ask you why. Because I know.. It’s God.”   Wkwkwkwkwwkwkwkwkww duh supershy padahal biasanya ga tau malu. I’m still getting used to this. But those who viewed our IG feed and saw the pic posted in FB would know what this is all about. The Promise of God. It’s been there, mentioned the wholeee time in my earlier posts, yet unnamed. I’ll try to recall the whole story. Some details would be lost in translation because there are wayyyy TOO MANY. Haha. Fyi. I’VE BEEN WAITING SOOO LOOOONG TO SHOUT THIS OUT LOUD. So, here goes. Last Sunday, R asked me out to dinner. A few days before, he’s mentioned this fancy place and I calmly (I think) said, “Yes, yes why not” while inside I was [insert screaming emoji here] knowing that this is not a normal dining experience. OMG. I was so glad it’s through a text message, otherwise he would see ...

Thirty Three Is The New Three

“God’s reward growth with pruning. More growth.” I stumbled across a worship moment on YouTube and the word spoken by Michael Miller breathe fresh air into my soul. “Pruning seasons are strange. You get disoriented. You think, “What did I do wrong?” Nothing. My shears are the reward of fruitfulness. You’re being positioned for greater fruitfulness.” Sometimes I forgot that the One who wants to see all of His promises fulfilled in my life more than myself is the Promiser Himself. And in the in-between seasons, He’s still the sweetest reward. A few days ago I woke up with a DM on my Instagram. A friend stumbled across my profile, clicked on my blog and she told me she started crying because God revealed many heart issues she’s not even aware of. I am in awe of what God’s doing behind the scene. The last post was, so far, the hardest writing in my life. I wrote it down while it’s still fresh in my heart, the disappointment, the struggle, the embrace. But today, I wrote from a totally diff...

Holiday's Overrrrrrr

So. My last night in Jakarta :(:(:( What is it with holiday. Days passed too fast! I forgot things too fast and too often, so I better write it here :) I'm grateful for this 12 days I spent in Indo. Grateful for the Bandung trip. For meeting ups with high school friend, with impromptu dinner with The Royal's friend. For the sweet quality brunch with my best friend. For another not-so-impromptu-yet-eyeopening reunion with college friends. For arranged meeting and every roads taken in between with beloved. I'm grateful that I got a chance to accompany my sister through the tonsil removal surgery (eww much) and for the teeny-tiny sofa shared with mom for 2 nights in a row. I'm grateful for every meal taken, for I never got any diarrhea this time around. LOL. I'm grateful for Jakarta's traffic that, so far, is friendly and bearable. Hahah. However, above all turns and events, I am most grateful for the people involved. I'm gra...
