Sepi ternyata bisa menjadi seribu kali lebih kejam ketika kamu menghujani saya dengan beribu pertanyaan mengenai status FS saya yang berbunyi: “It’s complicated.”

Saya pikir kamu akan mengerti jika saya katakan, “Single but absolutely not available (yet)” atau “Physically single, mentally married, spiritually in love”.

“Ck, serius dong,” demikian kamu selalu menimpali, seolah-olah saya melontarkan pernyataan di atas sambil tersenyum.

Kalau kamu sungguh-sungguh dengan apa yang kamu katakan, that you really care about me and really want to make me happy, seharusnya kamu mengerti, bahwa saya tidak pernah lebih serius lagi dibandingkan saat ini.

This year, I learned to accept the days when I don't feel motivated, tired, or a bit grumpy. I learned to allow myself to sit with this feeling instead of feeling guilty about it and forcing myself to be productive, socialize, or just get things done.

In the end, self-care is not always about doing the things that make us feel good or give us instant gratification. It's also about doing the RIGHT thing: something that is good for us in the long run—even if it may feel hard at times.

Hi. I'm HANNY
I am an Indonesian writer/artist/illustrator and stationery web shop owner (Cafe Analog) based in Amsterdam, the Netherlands. I love facilitating writing/creative workshops and retreats, especially when they are tied to self-exploration and self-expression. In Indonesian, 'beradadisini' means being here. So, here I am, documenting life—one word at a time.
