Jika demikian, biarkanlah. Hati yang sudah pecah pun bisa dikumpulkan kepingannya. Lalu kepingan-kepingan berwarna-warni itu bisa ditempelkan pada sebuah stoples kue yang tutupnya sudah hilang, kemudian dijadikan vas bunga—untuk meletakkan seikat bunga matahari. Bunga-bunga itu akan nampak lucu, membuat ruangan yang paling suram sekalipun akan terlihat sedikit unyu.

Maka, jika kita adalah kata-kata, jadikanlah kita segala yang menghadirkan hangat. Seperti semangkuk ketupat dan opor ayam di atas meja.

– hari ini, tepat seminggu setelah Idul Fitri –

Legs and Apples
Do it because it’s fun. Because it brings you joy; because it’s meaningful to you. Do it because it gives you simple tiny pleasures. Do it because it makes you smile.
The view from De Klok
I took another digital detox this weekend—I limited myself to a 5-minute screen time on Saturday and Sunday to quickly check my business account. I closed my social media account for the rest of the days.

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.
