ada kesedihan ini

ada kesedihan ini, yang mengebor lubang di hatiku. besar dan dalam, ia tak dapat ditambal oleh apapun.

The Test: To Hold On To Your Faith, Basically

This is my first time writing a reflection (that serves as a reminder for me too) with the basis of Al-Quran and Hadith. So, as a non-religious person, I plead to anyone who read this to remind and correct me if I made any mistake in quoting an ayah (verse), translating it, or interpreting it. Bismillahirrahmanirrahim.

rebirth: detachment

of what worth is this dunya, when you have to let go of everything?

nothing.
it's worth nothing.

pesan tengah malam

di malam-malam itu,
ada yang memanggil-manggil khawatir,
ada yang bisu menelan getir.
tapi cinta tak hanya bisa diungkapkan dengan kata,
ia bisa berupa harapan,
asa.
juga doa yang dimohonkan pada sang maha esa.
saat menyembah, saat menghamba.
saat pikir berkelana dan kalbu gundah gulana.

Book Reflection: "As Long As the Lemon Trees Grow" by Zoulfa Katouh

This novel is one of those novel that is hard to read. It makes my heart heavy. The story is set in 2011-2012 Syrian Civil War, where Salama is one of the survivor of the cruel dictatorship.

Sedikit Cerita tentang Bersyukur

"Ya Allah, ternyata aku orang yang sangat disayang..." pikirku di pertengahan hari ini, yang mendorong jari-jariku untuk mengetik belasan hal baik mulai beberapa waktu lalu ke dalam catatan di HP.
