Yang Ada Sebelum Lupa

Jauh beratus ratus tahun yang lalu, tepatnya 571 M, telah lahir tauladan dan junjungan besar Nabi Muhammad SAW.

I’m the one who come from the very humbling family, was struggling when entered study in Bogor Agricultural University (IPB). My family, that time, had cheated by irresponsible people and made us suffering in financial crisis. Nearly, I would have withdrawn from my acceptance in IPB because my parents did not able to pay registration fee and monthly cost during study for 4 years. I was peace off that moment and I gave up to myself but one of the lecture in that table said, “Dear Ibu, please don’t give up to your daughter, she is talented and she has been accepted in top department in IPB. On top of that, people will might pay over 60 million for entering food science and technology department. How can Ibu just give up on that?

Begitulah kerinduan, Yang hadirnya menyesakkan dada, membakar mata dan menghipnotis jiwa Bersikeras melawan kerinduan hanyalah mencipta penyakit Karena waktu tak akan pernah bisa diulang barang sedetik Karena perasaan itu tak datang dua kali Hanya memori-memori yang abadi terpatri dalam hati  dan sesekali muncul untuk sekedar mengingatkan  bahwa kita telah melangkah jauh Hidup harus terus berjalan, biarkan masa-masa itu menjadi memori yang sesekali bisa kau rasa kembali Rindu akan sesuatu dan seseorang, semua orang mengalaminya tapi tak semua orang rela melepasnya,  aku?
