May all beings everywhere be happy and free~

At Saturday, I attended music festival in Gelora Bung Karno. At Plaza Barat precisely. I'm kind of forget when I bought the 2-days ticket, all I want to do is to watch my favourite bands to perform!

If I'm not mistaken, it was one year after I saw my last music performance. I watched White Shoes & the Couples Company (WSATCC) at Taman Ismail Marzuki with my friend, Diah. That night was very crowded and other viewers were enjoyed the stage. So did I and Diah!

Swinging, singing, yelling all you name it in music concert. But I feel different experience when I attended the festival called Hobby Ground by Kaskus.

When WSATCC came to the stage, all I want is singing and swaying along their performances. Unfortunately, I can not did it freely. People around me seemed not enjoying the stage, they not even singing. Most of them just record via their expensive phone ew.

To me my self, the essential part of watching music concert is singing along them, the artists. Place your camera or your smartphone, minimise the use of it. Enjoy your surrounding. Feel the atmosphere.

Not all of audience enjoy performers I guess. Some of them just wait for the next artist because of the crowd that almost full. Some others may stand all the time, from the beginning of the first performance till the end.

Well, whatever. It's their right to not to sing or dancing.

Along the show, I captured several photos of the stage. Not many, tho because I'm too much dancing hahahaha!

This is my very first to watch Ramengvrl. I'm so impressed by how she's so original and be herself. No sugar-coating or smooth words but Ramengvrl just be her!

This was what I came for! via mine
After one year not watch any gigs, I saw you again Mr. and Mrs Company!

To be honest, all the songs they sang were too ordinary to me who self-acclaimed as die-hard fans of them! Haha. No new song. But their stage always full of dances and....interesting thing. That day, I saw Mrs. Sari used wax to her hair. So shiny and it's so vintage!

I always enjoy their performance, the hell with crowd! Haha!

The other artists are Elephant Kind, Afgan, and Dipha Barus. I didn't photographed Dipha Barus since it so crowded and all I did was just dancing! My first watch also to him. Hail him!

Halo! Apa kabar? Semoga seluruh makhluk berbahagia, termasuk kalian yang membaca!

Pertama kali aku dengar lagu ini langsung mikir "kok Bandaneira banget?" Apa karena ada Rara Sekar? Juga akustik seperti Bandaneira? Mungkin.

Menurutku ini lagu magis dari lagu-lagu Hindia alias Baskara Putra sejauh ini. Aku selalu punya satu lagu magis dari setiap penyanyi/ band yang aku dengar. Dan pilihanku jatuh ke Membasuh.

Selain karena bisa bikin eargasm, liriknya juga dalam. Bukan sekadar permasalahan antara orang-orang tapi lebih ke refleksi diri kali, ya. Setelah baca lirik lagunya, akhirnya pikiranku tertuju ke kalimat bahasa Sanskerta: tat tvam asi. Apa yang kita beri ternyata berbalik ke pad akita sendiri, alias kita memberi pada diri kita sendiri.

Meski terdengar sedih, sendu, dan muram menurutku lagu ini jauh dari itu. Menurutku lagu ini adalah ketika kita bersedia menerima dan menjadi ikhlas dengan apa yang sudah kita beri. Meski nanti, sekembalinya apa yang kita beri itu dalam bentuk lain yang tak terduga. Sungguh, ketika menyadari adalah saat-saat yang berbahagia. Semoga.

Selamat menyimak! (Jangan lupa dengarkan jua lagunya!)




****

Selama ini ‘ku nanti
Yang ‘ku berikan datang berbalik
Tak kunjung pulang apapun yang terbilang
Di daftar pamrihku seorang
Entah, tapi tanpa disadari diam-diam aku menantikan sesuatu yang kuberi kepada orang-orang. Sesuatu entah materiil atau moriil. Aku menanti sangat lama, sampai-sampai aku bertanya apakah yang kuberikan pada mereka akan kembali berpulang kepadaku? Apapun itu?

Telat kusadar hidup bukanlah
Perihal mengambil yang kautebar
Sedikit air yang kupunya
Milikmu juga, bersama
Makin lama makin aku berpikir bahwa kita hidup bukan untuk mengambil kembali apa yang sudah kita beri. Ada yang lebih daripada itu. Ada hal yang lebih dari sekadar memanen apa yang kita tanam. Milikku, apapun itu ternyata ada milikmu jua. Ternyata kita saling memiliki apa yang kita punyai.

Bisakah kita tetap memberi walau tak suci?
Bisakah terus mengobati walau membiru?
Cukup besar ‘tuk mengampuni, ‘tuk mengasihi
Tanpa memperhitungkan masa yang lalu
Walau kering, bisakah kita tetap membasuh?
Aku bertanya-tanya, jika kita ingin memberi apakah keadaanku dan keadaanmu harus sama? Kuharap tidak. Karena kupikir, kita bisa saling memberi meski keadaannya berbeda. Harusnya kita saling bisa mengobati, apapun keadaannya. Sedang baik atau tidak. Kita cukup besar untuk saling mengasihi. Lagipula kita juga cukup besar untuk melupakan kesalahan di masa lampau. Seperti yang kukatakan, meski sedang tidak baik-baik saja kita harusnya bisa saling membasuh kotoran-kotoran kita di masa lalu.

Kita bergerak dan bersuara
Berjalan jauh, tumbuh bersama
Sempatkan pulang ke beranda
‘Tuk mencatat hidup dan harganya
Kita saling berkembang dengan cara kita sendiri, menyuarakan apa yang ada di kepala. Berjalan pelan atau cepat, tumbuh berkembang jua. Bagaimanapun jangan lupa untuk kembali ke tempat kita berawal. Awal dimana kita bertumbuh untuk mengetahui seberapa berharga hidup yang sudah kita jalani.

 Mengering sumurku terisi kembali
Kutemukan makna hidupku di sini
Mengering sumurku terisi kembali
Kutemukan makna hidupku di sini
Meski banyak yang kuberikan, nyatanya kurasa tidak berkurang. Apa yang kuberi kembali pada diriku sendiri. Inilah makna hidup yang kucari selama ini. Memberi tanpa pamrih, karena sebenarnya kita memberi pada diri sendiri.

*this sarcastic post intends to remind myself only so if y'all read this please don't mind*

Lately, I realise that procrastinating is good for your health. You can be relax and let go of things you mind. You don't do thing of your to-do list, so you can take that me-time before you lost it.

Procrastinating can be filled with various passive activities such as laying on your bed and reading your favourite books and stargazing (or ceiling-gazing instead). You can enjoy your free time, thinking over the things that matter you most or just do nothing.

This week seems the longest procrastinating period in my life. I able to scroll timeline of my Twitter account for hours. Liking and retweeting tweets I interest to or give my perspectives regarding certain topics.

How nice to do nothing and delaying to do all of your responsibilities. I assure you to procrastinating. Let go something you worry about, because time will heal.

In this quarter life crisis, I think I lose my self. My self that always cheerful and a bit rebel. LOL. I know this situation is not eternal, time will change. I will transform to better person. I believe it.

I respect the process. These ups and downs, that turmoil, and this episodic chaos in my head. It consumes energy, indeed, caused many unimportant overthinks --although I know this hard time shall pass.

Many beginner adult like me on their crisis. They can be lost like me, I supposed. And it could lead to another dangerous action such as suicidal. But I won't do that. I still want to live the life. What I need is write and write and write. Just writing to expel every bad thinking inside my head. I know this is kind of therapy to me. And I'll do that.

Speaking of lost, sometime it makes us to miss things. On this moment, I suppose I miss me. The old me.

I even can't describe how me in the past, at least in last five years ago. But writing can be such helpful.

Suddenly I open the folder on my laptop titled "Dear Diary". Shockingly after I opened the folder, I wrote many writings. I can't even remember how could I be consistent write daily.

I even wrote plenty writings, and sort it by month. I should admire myself more after I read those writings.

It can be fun to know how I wrote based on my feeling in the past. How alay me. Haha! But I know that I'm growing, I'm developing myself.

This one should ensure this body and mind to relax, to chill. Just believe to this mantra "hard time shall pass."
