Irreplaceables to Cherish

Wooo… Feels good to write something again. Uda lama banget yah since the last post. Well, thankfully I got something to share, if not, bakal tetep outdated nih blog, hehe. 5 months after the last post, been through lots of ups and downs and some deep meaningful conversations with some good people. And most of them told me one thing, cherish every single time, every single seconds with your loved one, here they mean family. If we feel that we’re left out, our family will always miss us and we’re still important to them. Dan ya, make sense, pasti lah ya, it’s a no brainer, family is a very important thing to everyone. They’re always there whenever we need someone to turn to.

Tapi setelah gw cerna lebih dalem lagi, ternyata ada satu hal yang kebanyakan miss dari tiap orang tentang siapa atau apa yang mereka sayang. Okelah, let’s talk about people, so who, tapi nantinya analogi akan lebih gampang pake benda, hehe, but yea we’ll see. One thing that we miss is… Our ability to describe what’s good in someone that we meet every day regularly. Bingung? Awalnya gw juga agak bingung, tapi setelah gw coba-coba lagi, well it’s true. Dan gw tanya ke beberapa orang juga terjadi hal yang sama. Hal-hal yang kita ketemu tiap hari secara reguler ternyata susah sekali untuk didescribe dengan detail dan penuh hasrat bahwa hal atau orang itu bener-bener important buat kita. Masing-masing pribadi punya essence atau inti, good or bad, yang connected dengan orang yang sayang sama mereka, we don’t want to lose that essence.

Gw contohkan dengan… ummm… Matahari. The sun. The one thing that always greets us in the morning, and says goodbye to us every evening beautifully. Tapi kalo ditanya, menurut anda, seperti apakah matahari untuk anda? Most people will likely to answer, yaaa… gitu deh, makin panaasss…! Setuju! Tapi itu minusnya, but for some, the minus could be the plus. Coba deh away dari matahari sebulan, pasti kita akan ngerasa sekangen-kangennya sama matahari, and sadly, most people only excited to see the sun leave, but when it rise, everyone will all go grumpy about going to work and blame the sun for rising too early, well, I do this sometime in the morning, hehe. Well ini analogi yang agak gimana gitu, gw pake pengalaman pribadi aja, tapi gak curhat, hehe. Terkadang gw harus pergi semingguan untuk pekerjaan dan itu pastinya away from family, way way away, seminggu tapi tetep berasa lho. Sebelum pergi mah, damn I’m so friggin’ excited about this work trip. But on the way dan ketika sampe di sana, I miss the warmth of them. At home, apabila diminta describe tentang mereka, ya gw cuma bisa jawab seadanya, mereka baik, baiknya gimana, ya gitu lah, mereka asik, asiknya gimana, yaaaa gitu lah, I’m kinda lost the essence. But when I’m away, boy there are a lot of things I want to tell about them that could make me feel that they’re around me, here I’m digging and try to bring up the essence back, hopefully I can keep ‘em. Mereka baik banget, wake up early every morning, worrying about what I’m gonna have for breakfast and lunch, they’re cool! My mom always hang out with her iTouch watching Youtube and Skype with my bro, how cool and techno she is. And my pops, the best father in the universe. They might be a little bit too hard handle at home, but they’re too hard to resist outside.

I share this not only because of my love to my family, but for everyone that I know, especially at times like this, friends entering new stage of their life, marriage, which I’m kinda shaking when talking about that, hehe. Yap, you’re going to wake up everyday seeing your husband or wife, gonna be 24-7, happy or not, that will be the only face that haunts you, hehe, JK. I don’t mean to tell how to live and run a family, cos I’m not even close in doing that, just reminding of what we could miss sometime. Perhaps there will come a time he or she is really dull dan gitu-gitu aja dan a little bit annoying dan akhirnya we lost the essence of them and the essence of being with them, which I’ve felt few times with some people who used to be my important and loved ones, perhaps I’m not making every second counts and those seconds are irreplaceable, yet it’s a lesson to be learned as I move on, so it’s a turning point now, I truly love my fams and my girlfriend and miss them quite a lot of time, even when they’re close. Well my message just simple, I hope we don’t miss him or her just when we’re away from them, we want to keep the essence alive. Let’s make every second counts with them. Every single stage of life, sesimple apapun, tanpa disadari we make a vow to our own self about it, so every simple thing is as important as the big thing. Well, am signing out and if everyone read this already, one favor, could describe your loved ones, jangan seadanya tapi yang panjang dan meaningful, it’s not that complicated I guess, and just keep it between you two.  :)
