What Elysa Writes

Picture from Pinterest I learn from every life experience that i have Whether it is a negative or positive one I think my life must be in harmony In all aspects of it. Like, i know the light Because i have experienced the dark Or wherever there are shadows There must be sunlight. And then an unexpected day come Brought a bright color i think for me. I was the type of person That held onto things too tight Unable to release my grip. When it no longer felt right When it gaves me blisters And my finger would all ache I always thought that holding on Was worth the pain it takes. I used to think in losing things I would lose part of me too. Then one day something happened I dropped what i had once held Bright color is no longer for me. Everyday i choose healing For my heart, mind, body, and spirit This is my life and nobody can stir it up Without my permission. I was broke in the beginning But i am dealing with myself at the end.

On that time, for the very first time, i saw myself like what i always see in people. I am so cool and my story amazed me :) The party has ended. I am going back ...

Tak terasa, hari ini sudah memasuki bulan ke-5 di tahun 2017. Di awal bulan ini, aku memutuskan untuk kembali ke "dunia" yang sempat kutinggalkan berbulan-bulan lalu, dengan satu alasan klise: tak punya ide menulis. Kembali menulis hari ini, membuatku teringat pada saat aku masih duduk dibangku sekolah dasar, aku tak begitu suka dengan aktivitas mengarang cerita tentang apa saja yang aku kerjakan selama liburan sekolah. Ditambah lagi, kala itu, aku masih belajar dengan sistem caturwulan, dimana setiap tiga bulan sekali, kami mengikuti ujian sekolah disertai dengan pembagian rapor dan liburan sekolah setelahnya. Menceritakan apa yang aku lakukan bukanlah hal mudah untukku, meskipun saat itu menulis cerita masih kuanggap lebih baik daripada bercerita di depan kelas. Ada saat dimana aku selalu saja berusaha menghindari kontak mata dengan guruku agar beliau tak memintaku maju ke depan untuk membacakan cerita yang kutulis dan kalaupun itu terpaksa terjadi, aku akan maju de...
