Meeting Ms. G
She is 25 years old diagnosed with breast cancer. I was amazed how pretty she is with her slim figure, red nails and a quite barren head. She had all the appetite to eat and finish every meal sent to her bedside table, while I was nauseous and dizzy because of the anesthesia’s side effects. I couldn’t even look at my food tray.
She asked me, “why? You don’t like the food?” while she was enjoying her bread with confiture. “No. I’m afraid I’ll vomit again,” I replied.
“Well you have to divert your mind,” she answered while sipping her coffee.
“Or maybe I’m thinking about ASIAN food,” I replied back.
Oh, she’s incredible, was all I thought about.
We had a good conversation about food, Indonesian cuisine, and other interesting topics. In particular, we discussed about life, friends, family, destinations, our native lands, journals (she loves it as much I do) and cancer.
She has the desire, the passion, the love to live her life.
It was quite a revelation talking to her.
After a while, we kept our silence and savored our talk.
The nurse came and asked her to get up and come with her. She came back sweating, looking tired but smiling. She said she went biking.
What the hell. She just had an operation, I thought. But she said she needed to regain her energy, to regain her life.
Hmm…. I need to grow up. Here is a young woman with breast cancer, left by her boyfriend during her chemo treatment, still battling with all the procedures to recover.
What a shame, I whisper to myself. I need to be like her. I need to live my life and be an inspiration, just like her.
We bid farewell and wished each other the best in life. But in my heart and in my mind, she imprinted the most valuable lesson in life.
There are things in life we can’t control. We can be sad, cry, pause for a while and get crazy if we wish to. But this is our life and we must not stop living.
It is not about fighting for our life. It is living and enjoying every single moment of it with the people and things that gives us passion. It is the desire to be joyful and grateful. Family and friends are the best sources of the will and joy to live. My advice? Stick them to your heart and make them handy to reach. In short: LOVE them and live your life for them.

Here in my uncertain times
Longing, praying… I can’t deny
For a friend who’ll listen
And won’t ask me why
My troubling thoughts make me cry
Trying to resist a negative mind
I’m just here airing out what I feel inside
Judging me weak such a bullshit to speak
I hope you’re a friend who’ll stay indeed

Just a happy meal
When I was younger I was given a chance to experience the fun and the challenges working at McDonalds. I remember how kids begged their parents to buy them a happy meal. A happy meal is a package of food with a toy in a house-shaped box. It was amazing how most of the kids just wanted that. They loved the meal and collecting the toys. So the marketing strategy was to present a series of toys to be collected. And they all have the reasons to keep coming back.
Now as an adult, actually a mother of two young men and a husband who’s busy at work, I am now like a kid from McDonald’s begging for a happy meal.
A meal where we can talk, enjoy the food and be happy. The joy of seeing everyone, hearing their stories, wanting them to stay more, to talk more, to share more....
My heart aches for a just a happy meal. A certain remedy for a mom’s misery.

A love to last
My husband and I recently celebrated our 21st wedding anniversary. A lot of people were asking: what’s the secret of 21 years? My first answer was ...being apart for 16years.. hahhahaha.
My husband answered never go to sleep being angry with each other, and that everything can be discussed.
It made me think: what was the secret?
Before committing yourself with your partner, ask yourself first.
What are my intentions? What is my goal in this relationship? Like in any other thing that we do... We have goals. We have intentions .
If your intention is to spend your life and grow old with your partner, then you have 100 ways and more to do it.
On the other hand if your intentions are opposite, there are also 100 ways and more to do it.
We have reasons or bases why we love and want to spend our life with our partner.
And we also have reasons why we are half hearted or want to stop loving this person.
As people say, there’s no amount of loving that can change reality. If this person is not making you happy , abusing you emotionally , mentally and physically .., then stop.
Decide your intentions .
If you want to love him/her forever, I have 3 top tips.
1. Consider yourself a good partner.
It is normal to have fights or misunderstanding. It’s the spice of the relationship . But always do the first move for reconciliation and be a good partner. So you guys will not sleep angry with each other.
A good partner always do the first move.
2. Make your partner your best friend . Of course everyone of us needs friends.
But I think God sent us our partner to be our witness in our lives and is even a good companion in going shopping , coffee , traveling and a lot more.
So find your best friend in her/him.
3. Shepherd each other.
If one of you is lost his/ her way, remind her/him.
Be a guide and light to one another.
So ask yourself ...what’s my intention to this
person?
If it’s to love him/her forever...focus on her good things and love them all the way.
If not... set them free and be fair to him/her and to yourself . Because I’m sure, a lot of souls out there needed love, but they’re just waiting for someone they deserve.
