Introduction : The Gate of All

Hi there! :)

My name is Hilda. I prefer to be called "Hil", instead of "da". I don't know why, just sounds better, hehe. Alright, move. I'm 21 years old. I live here in a lovable city of Indonesia, called Jogja. Now I'm pursuing my bachelor's degree at Faculty of Agriculture, UPN "Veteran" Yogyakarta (will graduate next year, aamiin).

Okay, this blog would be my one and only official online journal since Tu*blr is still blocked and restricted in my home country (due to negative content issues which I don't really understand) so I decided to start a new page here. It will be filled with my life stories, random thoughts, experiences, favorite quotes, and so on.

I just want to begin to write again, since I cannot even remember when was the last time I wrote about things. Maybe it was during my pre-departure preparation to Japan, about eight months ago, in January (at Tu*blr, not here). There are a lot of things came up to my mind lately, then finally brought me here, to you, dear readers.

I want to write again, even it's hard to make a good and structured-post. Sometimes it gets difficult to make sure the direction to keep on the line. Sometimes it becomes much more complicated than it supposed to be (terlalu ngalor ngidul nggak jelas, haha! that's my shortcoming, sorry).

But I'm just gonna try anyway. I want to write again about me and what's being my interest, my cup of tea, and those things that keep me up at night (mid-night thoughts), experiences, blessings, also (perhaps) feelings. Hopefully, it can be useful for those who might be looking for help or entertainment either since for me it becomes my coping mechanisms. Healing time! :)

I'm gonna write it down, slowly but surely but I won't strictly set the schedule. I guess I'm gonna write as soon as possible if I had a spare time in return. The language will be bilingual, both Bahasa and English, 'cause I want to practice my English writing skills as well. About the topics, maybe a random-way would be more interesting. So let's get started, shall we?

Let's begin with a self-love concept. This concept sometimes has nothing to do with your logical thinking. Sometimes it appears accidentally when something occurs in your life and it affects you in a way that you cannot explain.

In my opinion, self-love is a moment when you start learning and discovering more about yourself, knowing a lot about who you truly are, including your potentials, also your flaws. Yet, you do understand how to deal with it. Also, appreciating more about yourself, accepting the flaws, learning more about growing and developing, and deciding how you're gonna make your every day a better and happier day than yesterday. It's about knowing more about you, yourself, and your value to the world.

What I'm saying is... Let's just start to love our self first. I mean, there are abundant things in this world that can make us delightful. Even the simplest thing can make someone happy. Since life is short, why don't we fill it with joy, beauty, and dreams? Let's try to be more optimistic and happier, okay. Well, I'm gonna say this...

I'm proud to be who I am, even I'm not perfect. Yeah I never will, 'cause nobody's perfect, right? But I'm sure, 100%, we all have the same chances to fix what's broken, to mend ourselves to be better. You know, I'm still fighting for what I want. I guess everyone's still doing the same, fighting for thousand dreams to be come true, fighting to become a better person day by day, learning and discovering more about our value to the world, and everyday, still, searching for meaning.

Above all, something reminds me not to forget my own happiness. That's why I choose to be happy in most of conditions. Being glad and grateful, more precisely. 'Cause I believe that being happy doesn't mean that I have to be perfect. It means, I've decided to look beyond my imperfections too.

'Cause in this life, we made our choice, had our mistakes, and so the lessons. We are the problem, yet the solution. Till the end, I want to live my life simply, dream the big thing, always be grateful, always give love, laugh lots and enjoy the life.

These are my favorite quotes related to this :
- When life isn't the way you like it, then like it the way it is.
Here's my final words :
Put a great prayer and huge efforts. Let Allah do the rest. Go struggle and don't forget to be happy, peeps! :)
