Twenty Something

It was a mixed feeling when you woke up and realized that you've done another 365 days of your life.

A year of life taught me hundreds lessons, always.

Thank You,

for all the experience of this past year;
for times of success which will always be happy memories,
for times of failure which reminded me of my own weakness and of my need for You,
for times of joy when the sun was shining,
for times of sadness which drove me to You.

Forgive me,
for the hours I wasted,
for the chances I failed to take,
for the opportunities I missed this past year.

Help me in the days ahead to make this the best year yet,
and through it to bring good credit to myself,
happiness and pride to my loved ones,
and joy to You.

Sincerely,

twenty-something-girl

Terlalu

Apa sampai kapanpun segala akan tercetak di memori?

Dibawa diam-diam dalam keabadian?

Aku memang tak percaya segala yang selamanya.

Kita pernah melewatinya dalam sesuatu yang kau bilang "terlalu";

terlalu singkat

terlalu disayangkan.

Namun satu yang semoga tak pernah kau ucap;

terlalu sia-sia.

Tertanda,

Aku yang kau tentukan sendiri 

siapa itu aku.
