The dream...will it come true?

A long time ago during my staying in Bogor, my friends and i sometimes shared our dreams about our future life or career.  I dreamed that one day i would want to have my own small school with the design of my choice,  with the color of mt taste,  with my K-primary school students coming and greeting me everyday. 
What a dream... hahaaaa... I said it anyway.  And my friends at that time said... "We pray for you." Even one of them,  who was my junior,  said "Take me with you,  ya mbak "
Time went by.  Sometimes i remember it,  but life is a reality.  Even too real that i sometimes feel afraid of keeping the dream alive.  
I almost forgot it.  Really.
Until recently.  I saw the plan before me.  "It's like the one in my mind,  you know, " that's what i said. 
You must've thought i was joking.  Though later you knew i wasn't. 
I didn't think before you would finally say it. 
Honestly,  i am tempted.  And i guess you know i am. We know exactly that we might court catastrophe if we do... And i'm not sure if i should risk it now.
But i am still tempted... i still am...

RISK IT

RISK IT

To love is to risk not being loved in return.
To live is to risk dying.
To hope is to risk despair.
To try is to risk failure.

The person who risks nothing, does nothing,
has nothing, and is nothing.

They may avoid suffering and sorrow.
But they simply cannot learn, feel, change, grow, love, and live.

Risk must be taken because
the greatest hazard in life is to risk nothing.
Only a person who risks is free.


*Coincidentally, i found this poem today while i was rearranging my office room.  I dedicate this poem to abang who just filed his letter of resignation last week.  Good luck :')

Tears

A lot of tears shed for the past year.

Tears of sadness.

Tears of disappointment.

Tears of anger.

Tears of goodbye...

It's all because you put your heart  for what you do... and people working with you.

Life goes on,  no matter what.

And you might shed tears again...

At least it proves that you are alive... truly alive...
