Mungkin ia memang sudah berhenti merayakan. Sejak lama. Kini, setiap hari merupakan sebuah perayaan dan pemenuhan rasa syukur yang lain. Jeda satu tahun tak menjadikan satu hari lebih istimewa ketimbang yang tiga ratus enam puluh empat.

Dua puluh tujuh adalah perjalanan. Perjalanan jiwa. Perjalanan hati. Tak ada lagi yang menahannya di belakang. Dan mungkin, tak ada juga yang menunggunya di depan. Tapi tak mengapa. Ia sudah berhenti mencari tujuan.

Perjalanan adalah persinggahan demi persinggahan. Ia tahu, tidak ada yang selamanya. Ia juga tahu, langkah kaki bisa berubah arah. Tetapi biarkanlah hatinya yang menempuh perjalanan itu; dan langkahnya hanya menuruti bahagia.

Karena bukankah itu yang semua orang cari?

We tend to shape our memories of them based on the limited time we spend with themβ€”and our memories of them, over time, will be replaced with one single word, one single interaction, or one single feeling.
Beradadisini Love Letter to Self
I took up a personal journaling project this week: writing a love letter to myself before bed. I work on a thin A6-size handmade paper journal I got from a paper artist, Els. The journal is thin and small enough, so it doesn't overwhelm me. It feels like I am only going to work on a small project.

Standing up for yourself does not have to look aggressive. It does not have to feel like a fight. It's not always about convincing others or explaining yourself and your decisions with the hope that everyone else understands or accepts your choice.
Hanny illustrator
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 lifeβ€”one word at a time.
