Petals of Hopes

It's been five days i am here. I moved here to start a new life and look for a job. I brought my cousin with me. We live in my brother's house. We look so comfortable here, so far. I want to say that this is the first city I've visited. Before, i never traveled anywhere. Also, this was the first time I went by plane. Eventhough I felt not good when i was in plane , but i was not regret it. I got an interview job yesterday. Now I am waiting for the announcement.   We do regular activities at my brother's house, like cooking, cleaning, purchasing daily needs at the market, and stuff. we look very enjoy to be in this city. We also looked around this city yesterday. This city is very organized. I love it. also looks sophisticated. I forgot to take pictures yesterday. Later, I will put on this post. I also bought some flowers from my hometown. This is the market where we bought fish, chicken, vegetables and more. ...

The best piece I've ever found is Claire de Lune by Claude Debussy. Still the best. I am playing it right now. It's soothing and calming. just like moonlight. The definition of Claire de Lune in English is Moonlight. My feeling towards this masterpiece, when i listen to it. It depends on the condition and situation. When I am sad or emotional, I sometimes play this masterpiece and immediately feel better.   During the day, I will walk along the windows. looking outside. I'm looking out at the little forest next to my house. Or I will sit quietly while looking at our garden in our backyard.  During the night, the solitude makes me confront things. Night and Claire de Lune are the best combo. Claire de Lune is also persuading myself to make me love my story more, every story in my life. What led me to become who I am right now? ...

The term minimalism is a simple life concept. Greedy for the world is a miserable thing. I personally will get stressed out if I see a lot of stuff that is not used. I will throw them out if they are not able to be worn or used anymore. For clothes, if they are getting smaller, I will give them to my little cousins. That means less stuff, but it also means less stress. This book has taught me a lot about living a simple life. Before, I was a girl who liked to buy anything without even thinking twice. I don't even save money. I have great regrets about that. I hope this is not too late. I am a bit surprised to see how the prophet taught a simple life but one high in value in every aspect. This book is a good reminder. I can read it every time I need to. Sometimes, I easily forget what I have read. I'm hoping to make this positive habit a part of my everyday routine. Simplify everything.

I stopped reading books and watching videos about self - improvement products . because they create unrealistic expectations . Besides life is a phenomenon process . Life is life . Now I prefer to read or watch about history, housekeeping, psychology , biology , astronomy , novel chemistry , fiqh , and so on . Sometimes self-improvement products are more fiction than fiction itself.

I really can't stand the heat. My body will relax if the temperature is under 28°C. But in the tropics, the temperature usually ranges from 30 °C to 35 °C during the day. especially in my country, Indonesia. So, we can only feel cold at night. because the temperature at night usually ranges from 27°C to 29°C. But, I still feel grateful, because in some countries, the temperature is higher. It is all because of global warming.   I am a typical homegirl. I don't go outside. I rarely leave the house. I only go if it is absolutely necessary. Sometimes, when I leave the house and spend about 30 minutes or more in the outdoors, I feel like my skin is burnt. It feels like it is really hot.    I put sunscreen on my face, hands, and legs. I also apply some cream after applying sunscreen to make sure my body and face are covered well. But still, my skin, especially on my face, is blushing. Not blushing because I am shy, but sort of getting inflamed. I guess my skin ty...

I wish I could grow more flowers and vegetables.  This morning I took pictures of flowers. I don't know the names of each of them.  I found a little bee inside this pink. It was beautiful. The yellow one is so much lovely. I preferred little flowers. They are cute and charming. just like little fairies. Rather than real, I preferred fiction. I always extend my imagination, that's how I make myself happy.  Today's plan is to fill some polybags with soil. My father and I will grow some chillies. But we still haven't had the seedlings yet. My father will buy them at the market on Saturday. So after we get them, we will put them right into the soil.  Let's grow more plants. 🌺🌺🌺🌺
