Every human
being in this world certainly has a dream. Many dreams we get. Sometimes we forget that. There
are many obstacles and problems when pursuit the dream. Everyone does not have ability to keep and maintain the
dream to be realized. Only the strong and
consistent people who believe in their dreams that can make it happen. But do not forget to
pray, asks God Almighty to grant the dream.
I listen to splashing water and the sound of the waves. Late night, the situation did not stop me to write and write again.
Millions or even
thousands of people were
asleep with their
dreams and I also fell
asleep in my dreams in this
paper. As is the sound of water and sticky air accompany
me to remove of my wild
idea. Let them speak in writing, in the voices
of the alive words. Let the keyboard and my fingers ran
beautifully on my laptop.
Accompanied by the waves
sound, my passion to write is
getting higher. Dark night and the
mosquitoes flirty started
coming toward me, but I want to
continue to write, speak, say and express my
heart. Let them bite
and suck my blood so they are
well fed and happy. A simple option. It is a
simple choice. Life is a choice. Dreaming and realizing
it is a choice.
When traveling to Anyer, we passed the road
that does not usually aim to avoid congestion.
I got the information from a friend.
After an hour driving, we were amazed by the natural
scenery. Yellow rice background,
mountains, cool wind and the warm
sun hot make us stop and photograph
the beauty of the natural
charm. The charm of nature accompanies us
continuously, along the way. At uphill
road, almost 90 degrees makes our heart beat faster, the declining nearly 90 degrees makes us shout together
happily. Farmers through,
wearing caping caps and hoe on his
shoulder, it is a rare sight we encountered in Jakarta.
We are fatigue and hungry, so we decide to stop.
In Karangbolong beach there are many
food stalls, but why is devoid of
visitors? We are starving, so we decided to go into one of the stalls
which are clean and comfortable.
We request a list of menus to order food. The
pricelist is made of paper which contains writings food menu without prices make me suspicious.
We ordered fried calamari, stir-fried kale, lemon
juice and tea. I want
delicious food, warm rice, fried
calamari which was not too hard but ripe,
green stir-fried kale and
cold orange juice to relieve my hunger.
The food came after we waited about twenty minutes, hard and cold rice, large and rather smelly fried calamari and tasteless stir fried kale, so we
did not want to eat them all. It had unsatisfactory
taste and the price is too expensive. We were disappointed.
Maybe the
owner has a dream that his stall is always full of visitors everyday but if he did that, that dream will never come
true, right?
A disappointment for
services provided will destroy part or all of our dreams.
