Distance Doesn't Separate People


I just graduated from senior high school and now successfully being no-status-person who spent the time watching movies or series with bunch of snacks, sleeping all day long, scrolling social media,  waiting for any update from LTMPT, reading books, clean up the house, wash the dishes, et cetera.

The certain thing that I feel after I graduated is loneliness.

Loneliness is personal experience – it will feel different for all of us. People feel lonely for all sorts of reasons. Sometimes, a particular event or change in circumstances may trigger these feelings, or we may have felt lonely for a long time without really knowing why.

For me, the loneliness that I felt is because I have lost contacts with my friends and a relationship has broken down. I don’t know if this is a reason too but I felt like this too-long-holiday really make me tired, I can’t do activities that I always done before like doing my home works, facing organization problems, studying for exams, catch-up the deadlines, doing the group work, preparing powerpoint for presentations, doing research for competitions, etc. Suddenly, I just stay at home, losing all of my activities, and doing nothing important. Tyrion Lannister was right, sometimes nothing is the hardest thing to do. 

Well, I’m not going to explain about loneliness scientifically, since there are much researches and information about it. So, just in case if you wanna explore more about loneliness because you’re kind of curious person who always feel thirsty with new knowledge or you just feel lonely and need information about it, I’ll put google drive link below this post which contains electronic books about loneliness. In this post, I just wanna write and share my experience.

At the first time I realize that my friends disappeared from my life what I felt disappointed. It hurts. I became the person with big incredulity to others. I don’t trust too much anymore with words ‘we will always keep in touch’. The experience of betrayals that I ever tasted from someone I once very trusted left a wound in my heart. It hurts to see people change. While I still stare at them, with the same feeling. That’s what I felt at the beginning. I started to think that promises with my friends, is just the same as a silly commitment once I had with my crush. They are just a bundles of sweet 
lies. 

But, by the time goes on, I became miss my friends. I tried to get in touch with some of them again. And then I realize, probably this is how the world supposed to work. Sometimes you have to start, not only wait in your comfort zone. And yeah it’s true that people change. They will have their priority, and their business, and you’re just not in their interests again. Isn’t it?

But, I began to know that actually, 

We never meant to break every promises we’ve made 

We never meant to hurt each other

But still, we do.

Time flies by. I also learned that no matter how many people that suddenly disappear from our life, we will always have an option to be grateful from some of them who stays. Who still be there for us. I remember what Charity said to Barnum in The Greatest Showman movie : 

“You don’t need everyone to love you, just a few good people”

I strongly agree with that. We really don’t need everyone to love us, a few good people are should be enough. 

That loneliness taught me that distance doesn’t separate people. But, silence does. 

So, it doesn’t matter where you are, doesn’t matter the distance between you and other people, the key to keep connected is to never forget them. To make an effort to talk to them. I remember while ago, when I texted my teacher who I haven’t met for a long time, I told him about SNMPTN and asked him to pray for me. At the end of conversation he said that he’s happy because I still let him knew, that I still apprised him. It was hit me. 

I realize that some people would be simply happy if you text them, and let them know how’s life going, try to stay connected with them. 

Here’s a song lyric from one of my favorites disney movie, coco : 

Remember me
Though I have to travel far 
Remember me 
Each time you hear a sad guitar 
Know that I’m with you the only way that I can be 
Until you’re in my arms again, remember me

Hopefully, I hope all of us will more appreciate the other person existence in our life, and don’t let the silence separate you with anyone who ever makes your life more meaningful, who once made you laugh, who ever be your partner of lunch, who once be your really best friends. 


That’s all for me. Thanks for reading. I’m sorry if there’s something wrong about my grammar or anything in this post, you can correct me if you want.

Akses Yang Terlupakan; Realita Jalanan Banjarnegara

Untuk yang ke-sekian kalinya saya kembali menemukan sebuah realita yang menyedihkan ketika saya pergi ke suatu tempat wisata di Banjarnegara. Akses jalan yang mengenaskan. Berulang kali kami harus turun,dan motor terpaksa dituntun. Bukan kesalahan jika orang orang mengatakan banyak jalanan di Banjarnegara seperti sungai yang surut airnya. Bisa dibayangkan seperti apa? Bukit Icika,Purwanegara,Banjarnegara Saya salut dibalik fenomena sungai surut itu masih banyak yang gencar memajukan potensi wisata daerahnya. Keindahan alam yang terbayarkan setelah berjam-jam berperang di jalanan. Saya pernah menanyakan mengenai masalah tersebut ketika acara Parlementaria DPRD, kebetulan saya datang mewakili sekolah saya bersama beberapa pengurus OSISMPK lainnya. Saya menanyakan mengenai banyaknya jalan rusak menuju tempat wisata,contoh saja Curug Pletuk di desa Pesangkalan yang aksesnya memprihatikan. Padahal pariwisata merupakan sarana efektif menunjang kesejahteraan daer
