Pendahuluan
Keterjangkauan hidup menjadi krisis utama di kota-kota besar....
Kofi Annan, former UN Secretary-General, once said, "To live is to choose. But to choose well, you must know who you are and what you stand for." He embodies many things that I deeply admire: unwavering commitment to peace, justice, and ethical...
They say that after death, the human brain lives for seven minutes.
Seven minutes where time bends and stretches, just enough time to replay our best memories.
The moments that made us feel most alive.
The laughs, the hugs, the late-night talks,...
Figs and persimmons—two fruits that don’t ask to be understood, yet hold stories within their skin. One, layered in depth, waiting for someone patient enough to peel back its richness. The other, bitter before its time, overlooked until it softens...
Because you are often overlooked, waiting to be seen when no one seems to care. You grow slowly, quietly, like the persimmon that ripens at its own pace, but is often ignored until it's perfectly sweet. People don't understand that you can't be...
Because you are rich in complexity, but people often don't understand you. Like the fig that ripens slowly under the summer heat, you are full of history, wisdom, and emotion, yet you are often overlooked. You hold so much inside, but it feels...
As we step out of this year and into the next, it feels like hitting reset on a playlist that’s been on repeat for way too long. The next 365 days are a blank canvas, waiting for messy brushstrokes of late-night laughs, bold moves, and soft, quiet...

This was the year I didn’t see coming—the one that shook me out of complacency. When I learned to stop being compliant, to demand what was rightfully mine, refuse to settle for anything less than what I deserved. I lost patience with small talk,...
Aku lahir di tempat di mana banyak budaya bertemu menjadi satu. Makanan, pakaian, dan bahkan bangunan mempunyai makna masing-masing. Di mana “gotong royong” adalah ungkapan yang kita pahami dan jalani sehari-hari. Tempat yang punya segalanya, dari...
Eye contact seems a little hard today. Trying to hide the eyes that tell the truth of what the heart is feeling. My mind was all over the place just because of what I felt. I felt mad, sad, scared yet at the same time I felt guilty for feeling...

In the morning, I entered the SMP area with a nervous feeling because today was the day we had all been waiting for—the day of the ceremony. I was assigned to the front row of the choir. My heart was pounding because I was worried that our...
I disappeared for a while. Parts of me are still gone. Maybe they always will be. No one really noticed anyway. But I did. I still do. I miss myself; the me that did not back down from anything. A lot of years went by and I just watched, like...
