Dari Maumere ke Lembata

Foto foto ini aku ambil saat melakukan perjalanan dari Maumere ke Lembata di bulan Desember 2005.

Estranged

When you're talkin to yourself
And nobody's home
You can fool yourself
You came in this world alone
Alone
So nobody ever told you baby
How it was gonna be
So what'll happen to you baby
Guess we'll have to wait and see

Old at heart but I'm young
And I'm much too young
To let love break my heart
Young at heart but it's getting much too late
To find ourselves so far apart

I don't know how you're s'posed
To find me lately
An what more could tou ask from me
How could you say that I never needed you
When you took everything
Said you took everything from me

Young at heart an it gets so hard to wait
When no one I know can seem to help me now
Old at heart but I musn't hesitate
If I'm to find my own way out

When I find out all the reasons
Maybe I'll find another way
Find another day
With all the changing seasons of my life
Maybe I'll get it right next time
An now that you've been broken down
Got your head out of the clouds
You're back down on the ground
And you don't talk so loud
An you don't walk so proud
Any more, and what for

Well I jumped into the river
Too many times to make it home
I'm out here on my own, an drifting all alone
If it doesn't show give it time
To read between the lines
'Cause I see the storm getting closer

Puasa Kali Ini

Puasa Ramadlan lagi... mesti nyiapin segala sesuatunya lagi
mesti bangun jam 3 lagi, makan sahur dan sholat subuh..
nahan nafsu makan dan minum.. itu mudah dan biasa, tapi kalo musti jaga hati dan pikiran.. itu yang susah!
Memang harus berubah kalo lagi puasa.. berubah jam tidurnya, berubah pola makannya, berubah perilakunya, berubah pula kebiasaan liburannya.
Gak bisa lagi begadang sampe larut sambil dengar radio..
Gak bisa lagi nikmati lontong sayur pagi2..
Gak bisa lagi ngopi di meja kerja..
Gak bisa lagi makan siang di 'mbak dyan'
Gak bisa lagi snorkling saat libur..
Tapi meskipun sepertinya harus meninggalkan hal2 duniawi yang menyenangkan itu.. masih ada satu kenikmatan yang hanya ada di bulan puasa, menikmati saat berbuka..
Jadi teringat saat masih kecil di kampung halaman, di bulan puasa, kebahagiaan yang tak tergantikan..
Alhamdulillah, ternyata aku masih bisa menikmati bulan Ramadlan tahun ini
