Sorry. This word will appear many times in this post. Sorry for the lazy me to write though i am in the training called #30HariMenulis. Sorry for the big-sleepy-head of me to choose sleeping than revising the script that will be submitted tomorrow. Sorry for the devil that works more than the angel inside of me. If there is a word describes apologize better than Sorry, i would say it. Unfortunately, i just know this one and only, five alphabets, s-o-r-r-y. I am so sorry.
Sometimes life can be so difficult. Tough. You don't know what you should do. You need someone to accompany you. But you have to accept the reality, about no one there to help you. No, actually there are two persons who have helped you. Can you just don't ask for more? They have helped you and you need to say thank you. However, maybe their help is not what you expect. Whatever, you can't rely on someone else, you are the one who make your own reality. Right?
I was there sitting and waiting for the bus. Across, two ladies were chit-chatting about something. Since this is a conversation between Indonesian and Malaysian so i will just name them I and M. They just come back from library, anyway.
M: Oh, i am so tired. But i will study again later at home.
I: Yes, but you have to relax first. Take some rest before you continue to study.
M: Aha. You are right.
I: Actually the more important thing is the process. Not the result.
M: Really?
I: Yeah, people always ask, When will you defense the proposal?
M: Hemm..
I: They don't ask how is the process that finally you can defense the proposal?
M: Yeah..
I: People just know the result that Mr. A is officially a Doctor now. Miss. B is is a successful entrepreneur. Mr. C is a good lecturer. They don't know the process that they have been through. They just know the end of the story.
M: Aha..
I: There is no one who can change the fate of someone except that person who change him or her self.
M: True..
I: It is the same with the cake. When you eat it, you know that the cake is delicious. You know that the sugar and salt are in good composition then you can't stop for eating. You eat the result but you don't know the process before. How the chef puts the ingredients and tries to make it as balance as possible. How she bakes it in the good temperature in oven so it won't be scorched. If she doesn't do all the process then you can't have the delicious cake in front of you right now.
M: Yaaa..
I was overheard the conversation while working on the script. Those things said have hooked me. Totally, you just see the "sweet" from the result but you hardly find the "sweat" of it. The sweat means all the efforts, difficulties, obstacles, before someone finally reach the "sweet". You got what i mean, ya? x)
Currently, i am facing a big problem. I don't know what should i do. I am afraid i will disappoint my self. I am afraid i have spent too much time on this thing instead do something more useful (read: research proposal). I don't know whether the result gonna be good or not. I don't know know what they will say about this thing later. But, i don't expect to fulfill what they want, I just need to do the best that i can do. I was too afraid from failure. Again, what is failure if i can learn from this and reach success later on? Yes, i am not afraid anymore. Even with the limited time that i have. Even i have to do all, alone.
Sometimes, Allah SWT just wanna see how far you still can run in the middle of challenges around you. You just need to keep going. Don't quit. Never.
One more, self-forgiveness is the best medicine for all mistakes you have done. Get up! Get back to work! x)
Just keep going,
Chandini

Banyak dosen aku juga bilang the most important thing is the process not the result.. bener bgt beb, soalnya kalo kita ngejalanin prosesnya dlu kita bakal lebih menghargain result yang kita dapet, karena kita tau itu susah!!! Kaya aku proses "mencari kerja" rasanya pngn bgt nyerah skrg, tapi kalo nyerah, aku ga bakal tau resultnya. :*
Iya ka, sepahit apapum prosesnya kalo kita jalanin dgn sabar Insha Allah bakal membuahkan hasil yang baik. Yang penting maju terus, pantang nyerah! Pasti bisa dapet kerja dalam waktu dekat ya kaa. amin x))
