Leave The Baggage

Just read Diana Rikasari's post which titled Breathe and somehow got inspired. What's written there is just so true.
"I live my life without carrying an extra baggage, and walk on with just what I essentially need"

Somehow, without realizing, we spend our days and time to mark on things that hurt us, that don't go in our way. We stumble upon them and curse. We give much feeling to the bad things and somehow carry an 'unnecessary baggage' of hatred, of people we hate.
What for? What for wasting the energy, passion, and all good mood for the 'unnecessary baggage'?
Maybe we should learn not to carry 'that baggage'. Maybe we should just bring the small case fulfilled with things we utterly need and love. Carry the good thing, smile a lot, forgive, and be a bit tough. Don't get easily intimidated, see the brightside. People do mistake, we simply do. Be happy. Stay healthy. Leave the baggage. Make peace with ourselves.
Have a good day ;)

BS

Terasa cukup aneh, setelah sekian lama meninggalkan blog ini, saya kembali dengan bahasa Indonesia. Ada yang mengganggu pikiran saya. Ini sebuah post untuk teman-teman saya. Mungkin saja ini untuk anda. Dan anda adalah salah satu alasan mengapa saya menulisnya dalam bahasa Indonesia.

Post ini berawal dengan kalimat yang sering saya dengar..........

mencintai orang yang salah.
Imej apa yang langsung anda bayangkan? Mencintai orang yang menjual heroin? Mencintai orang yang pernah meninggalkan anda untuk orang lain? Mencintai orang yang hanya punya motor tua dan hanya bisa mengajak anda bepergian dengan KRL? Mencintai orang yang memasang foto dengan mantannya? Mencintai orang yang baru saja merayakan anniversary pertama dengan kekasihnya? Mencintai orang yang adalah sahabat anda? Atau mencintai mantan sahabat anda?

Saya tahu rasanya. Saya pernah melewati salah satunya.

Saat itu saya berpikir, ada dua kemungkinan.
Mungkin anda dan dia hanya dua orang yang tepat. Namun, berada pada situasi yang salah.
Atau mungkin anda dan dia hanya dua orang yang salah. Di waktu yang tepat.
Mana yang akan saya pilih?
Saat itu saya lebih memilih untuk yakin bahwa saya dan dia adalah dua orang yang tepat pada situasi yang salah. Terdengar egois? Tentu tidak seegois yang anda bayangkan bila anda pelakunya. Anda korbannya, seperti saya.

Saya yakin jelas anda tahu ketika anda mencintai orang yang salah.
Dan anda tahu, itu adalah perbuatan yang salah.
Tapi..... Bukankah banyak cara untuk membenarkan hal-hal yang tadinya salah?

Atau hmm, mungkin memang benar cinta bukan sekadar benar atau salah. Bukan sesuatu yang mudah diubah seperti menghapus jawaban di LJK, jadi mau tidak mau harus anda hadapi entah saat menjadi orang yang salah atau berada di situasi yang salah?

Anda yang mengerti betul jawabannya.
Saya tahu tentu bagi yang merasakan, mencintai orang yang salah, bukan semudah menulis post ini. Selamat berjuang, karena mungkin atau bahkan sering kali, hal yang benar diawali dengan kesalahan.

People Will Always Want More

and end up having more. I believe in that scary truth. That no matter how good your life is, after being thankful, you will eventually reach the peak when you say you want anything else. Always like that. Imagine that you have the finest pair of shoes. You're gonna wear them for couple months or so than they will be abandoned in the shoe rack. The best leather-straps watch, your favourite one, which you almost wear everyday, sooner or later it will be dusty and not so lovely. Than you left it on your desk. Your favourite bag? You'd saved your money for quite some time, you bought that bag. You wore that and was proud. Nevertheless, weeks went by and you bought another bag. How about your lovely notebook? iPod? You will always want the next generation. Your favorite novel? No way, its amusement only exists for days. Brand new nail polish? You got screwed by the beauty shop. Clothes? Never ask. You always get the one every week, don't you?

People? How about people? Will they get boring and not so lovely?
