Sebuah Keyakinan

Seseorang bertanya kepada gue pagi hari ini.
"Apa hal yang paling kamu takuti di dunia ini? Apa hal yang bikin kamu sedih?"
Sejenak gue berpikir; selama ini gue selalu convince myself kalo ga ada di dunia ini yang harus ditakuti karena selayaknyalah kita berserah diri kepada yang memberi kehidupan serta yakin dan percaya akan rencana-Nya yang indah. Namun sisi manusiaku yang lemah muncul. Apa yang gue takutkan dan yang dapat membuat gue sedih?
Terucaplah jawaban sederhana dari gue, "Gue paling takut dan sedih kalo liat Nyokap nangis."
Suasana hening...
Mungkin jawaban gue tersebut punya makna yang sama baginya. Entahlah...
Gue balik bertanya...
"Kalo kamu gimana?"
Tarikan nafasnya menandakan bahwa pertanyaan yang ditujukannya ke gue sebelumnya bukan sebuah pertanyaan biasa.
"Gue paling takut kehilangan seseorang yang gue cintai dan sayangi.", demikian jawabnya.
Entah apa yang mucul di pikiran pada saat itu. Gue langsung bereaksi layaknya menyatakan protes namun tetap dalam wujud gue sebagai manusia yang lemah yang tidak ada artinya tanpa Kasih dari Sang Khalik.

My reply,
"Yeah, I see. Gue rasa juga demikian. Tapi mengapa gue ga bisa berkata hal tersebut sebagai hal yang paling gue takuti dan membuat gue sedih adalah karena BAHKAN untuk berpikiran ke arah itu, gue ga mampu."

Gue ga mampu dan terlalu takut dan akan terlalu sedih jika harus mengucapkan kata-kata yang sama seperti yang diucapkannya sebelumnya. Gue ga bisa berpikiran demikian. Gue terlalu sibuk meyakinkan diri gue semua akan baik-baik saja. Benar yakin? Sudah berhasilkah gue meyakinkan diri gue? Coba lihat kembali, gue berkata kalau  gue sendiri tidak mampu untuk berpikiran ke arah itu. Jadi, apakah gue sudah yakin atau belum? It's too deep inside my heart. Setiap orang punya cara masing-masing dalam menanggapi hal-hal yang berhubungan dengan rasa keyakinan.

Satu hal yang pasti, "Hanya dengan memikirkan hal-hal yang baik sajalah gue dapat bertahan hidup dengan semua permasalahan kehidupan dunia ini." Kita pasti pernah mendengar orang menyalahkan Tuhan atas apa yang dialaminya dalam kehidupannya. Itulah dasar segalanya. Source of everything which is good, actually is GOOD, mengapa terkadang terlontar kata-kata menyalahkan Dia?

Jadi, kembali ke awal. God is good. I think all of us agree with that. Dia baik dalam setiap perkara sampai selama-lamanya; meskipun kita penuh dengan dosa dan kesalahan. Cuma itu aja yang bisa membuat gue semangat dalam menjalani hidup; dimana sumber dari segala kebaikan itu meyakinkan gue bahwa hal terbaik dalam hidup gue akan baik-baik saja. Mom, the most precious part of me will be all right. Di saat itulah keyakinan itu bertumbuh. Dan meskipun gue terkadang harus terlalu jauh berdiam dalam bayang-bayang kekuatiran karena alam pikiran manusia yang terbatas, aku kembali kepada satu hal dasar yang tidak dapat berubah, God is good. Suddenly, things are changed.

Pelajaran yang dapat gue petik dari pembicaraan gue sebelumnya adalah bahwa memang kita tidak mampu untuk menjadi baik dengan kemampuan kita sendiri. Kita hanya dapat menerima sesuatu yang baik. Setelah itulah kita dapat mengerti apa yang baik. Namun bahkan dengan kebaikan yang lebih dulu kita terima, kita terlalu sering memberikan yang sebaliknya kepada yang telah memberi kebaikan dalam hidup kita. Menyesal, itu kembali kepada masing-masing individu. Setiap orang punya rancangan hidup berbeda. Tapi dalam proses yang sangat panjang bagi ukuran manusia; berada dalam kesesakan, kekuatiran, dan ketakutan, semua itu hanya dapat diobati dengan kepercayaan dan keyakinan dalam pemikiran positif kita; God is good no matter what.

Namun, melihat Nyokap menangis ataupun bersedih; itu akan tetap menjadi hal yang paling dapat membuat gue bersedih, yes I am scared of that. Semua karena satu hal; dia adalah bagian hidup gue. Kesedihannya adalah kesedihan gue. Kebahagiaannya adalah kebahagiaan gue. Nevertheless ; God is good to us.

A Woman In My Heart


Mom, I love you dearly!


Mom, I felt like crying whenever I remembered you with all the things you've going through. You're the most loving woman I have in my life and you will always be. I pray tonight you'll always be fine and God will always take care of you in every step you make and every breath you take. I need you in my life. I believe that the Lord will always hear our prayers. It's just about time. We only need to keep our faith till the miracle happens. And even though everything which has happened seems to be so tough for you to face, it is the part of his big plan for you and me. Thanks for taking care of me, Mom. I promise you, I promise you, the best God could give us will happen through me; a son who always want to bless your heart. Let us surrender to Him!

All of the storms I may have caused
And I've been wrong, Dry your eyes [dry your eyes]

At peace with every choice I made

Better

Well, been long not come back to write anything in my blog...what I have been up to...?

Menyelesaikan semua urusan gono gini di kampus buat namatin program TPB gua yang bisa dibilang uda super telat..., man..., it was't so easy! Satu bulan terakhir is compeletly hari-hari yang melelahkan. Ditambah lagi nyokap gua yang baru aja selesai operasi kantung empedu. Pre and post surgery gua otomatis harus ada di samping nyokap buat nemenin dia anytime I had time. She had been hospitalized for a month. But thanks God for the days we had. If sompe pople in this world call it sorrow, I might call ity joy!

Well, gua harus bersyukur karena lewat masa-masa sulit itu gua bisa merasakan kalo God ngasih gua dan keluarga gua banyak berkat. Gua ga pernah ngebayangin kalo nyokap harus melalui begitu banyak hari-harinya di rumah sakit, terbaring lemah, merasakan dan menahan sakit, berharap sembuh, dan menanggung semua beban. Pada akhirnya, semua dapat dilalui! We pass it through.. Besok nyokap balik dari RS Cikini, whom I hope, would be the last hospital mom visit because of the sickness she's been suffer on.

Bayu Asih - Santosa Bandung Internasional Hospital - RSUP Hasan Sadikin Bandung - RS St. Borromeus Bandung - RSUPN Cipto Mangunkusumo Jakarta - RS PGI Cikini Jakarta...those all! Udah cukup nyokap berada di semua tempat itu just for one thing...SEMBUH! After all, health is better than wealth is totally TRUE! Thanks God uda mengizinkan semua ini terjadi. We may know that we're blessed since all the needs for this had been provided in exact time, never been late, we had never been want. And knowing that thing is a grace! Thanks God juga buat semua experiences yang gua temui di rumah sakit selama nyokap dirawat. So much things, new, I had never been seen, I finally could see there, along that time.

Health is better than wealth! It's true!

Abba is our healer! It's trully true!

Mom, she's been cured by the mighty hand! I know it's true!

God bless!

Happy Birthday Mom!

Today, Mom has turned 48. Firstly, I wanna thank The Almighty God for giving us such this wonderful grace. It’s a blessing knowing that your Mom is still okay and being happy. Now, she is miles away from me, somewhere in the east cost of Sumatra while I’m here in Bandung.

We haven't seen for 2 months, maybe less or more but we constantly burn the phone lines. I longed to hear Mom’s voice as she’s been in Medan for the last 2 months for an intensive medical check up. What could I say since it’s gonna be Christmas and I just can wait ‘till she feel better to take the flight back to Jakarta. I wish she would been home before Christmas's Eve.

"Happy Birthday my Mom and I do want you to know that everything you did touches my heart everyday of my life.

You always help me get through anything.

Your prayers is a blessing.

You always make me realize that life is good.

Your smile brightens my day and you know that!

Mom, I want you to know - I am so blessed that you are my Mommy and Angel and I love you dearly…

Happy Birthday, Mama!" ~TYO

This is for Mom!

It fells so sad when we make our parents down. My LORD, forgive me please....

Today is  a bad day for me. I can imagine what I've done toward  Mom. I'm so sorry for all of the things I've done.

Mom, I love you much.I hope what had just happened today doesn't make you sad. I believe that you are the most amazing woman in this world, as everyone thinks the same about their mom. I do realize that you are there to say prayers for me. Your love will never end.

I will always pray for you. May God look after you in every step you make and everything you do. It's not because of the good deeds we do, but because of the faith. As I saw you prayed unto God at night, asking Him to guide us, specially me. Yeah Mom..., I heard unto your prayers... It makes me love you more and more. How wonderful your love oh Mom!! God bless you!
