I was chatting with a friend, and i think we were using lots of 'Majas', a figurative terms of speech, which has many styles, commonly used formally in Indonesia.
Throughout our chat that was filled with this nostalgic theory of Indonesian language, i was pretty strucked by the 'majas' my friend pointed out, "Perjalanan hidup manusia seperti sungai yang mengalir menyusuri tebing-tebing, yang kadang-kadang sulit ditebak kedalamannya, yang rela menerima segala sampah, dan yang pada akhirnya berhenti ketika bertemu dengan laut", which in short tell about one's life journey like a flowing river that are filled with so many troubles, uncertainties and difficulties, which at the end will finally end in the sea. The 'sea' is kind of the destination that everyone is going to.
I think if i have to sum up my journey, it has been a wild ride, with all the ups and downs. At times i think i've been trapped for too long in my comfort zone, which subsconciously i refuse to let go. A quote to describe this could be something like 'a bird that forgot how to fly'.
In retrospect with the reason i wrote this blog, i think i have lost further, and could not figure out how and where this journey is gonna lead me into.
