Notes from Hospital



I learnt to be grateful on 4 things that I used to take for granted from hospital ministry

1. Eat
2. Drink
3. Passing urine
4. Passing motion

Those are the very first thing that doctor will ask every patient on the hospital bed in the morning
Those are the sign that the body still functioning well

Those are not important things for me *sigh


Most of the times…
I need nice clothes on my body
I want fabulous make up on my face
I need stunning shoes of my feet
I need awesome necklace on my neck
I need cute earrings on my ears
Or some good achievement

… to makes me feels good


Most of the times…
I’m not grateful for having the ability to pass urine
Passing motion seems like waste of time
Eating become tiring when I never lost weight
Drinking is just another routine


The uncounted hospital trips change me somehow

Now… I take time to say thank you every time I pass urine

Now… I whisper “thank you Jesus” every time I’m able to pass motion

Instead of anxious with the healthy food rules…
I’m more grateful for every food on my plate

Instead of rushing to fulfil the needs of my body…
I take time to pause and enjoy the moment how my body reacting very nice in the water that I drink
I found the rich of joy in the small little things 
I’m grateful for extraordinary in the invisible things


Those small & short grateful & thankful things help me open another list of great things that I take for granted in life…

. having a roof over my head
. water to bath
. hands and feet that functioning well
. mistake that I made
. bed for my body to rest well
. and the list continue

Once a while…
Instead of letting my mind fills with anxiety for this and that
…I take pause and be grateful for those things

Instead of occupying my mind evaluating somebody’s life
…I take time to count my blessing and be thankful for it

Instead of worrying about what will I have in the future
…I thank God for whatever I have NOW

Good Housewife Vs. Working Woman

judul ini sempat jadi dilema berkepanjangan dalam pikiranku...but finally i found the way to deal with my dilemma. Setelah merit, aku sempat dalam kebimbangan...kerja ato tidak. Aku sempat terpengaruh komentar beberapa temans yang bilang begini: "kaget juga kamu bisa nikah, kirain bakal jadi wanita karir" "kamu udah menikah?! *kaget* kayaknya kamu bukan tipe orang cepet nikah deh" "cepet banget udah nikah!!!" Hihihihi...aku sendiri gak sadar...karna pas lagi pengen dapat cowok eh malah dapat calon suami *salah satu berkat* ...napa gak langsung nikah aja, ya gak?!...hehehehe...aku cuman pacaran 2 kali dan torkis adalah pacar kedua...sedangkan aku adalah pacar pertama torkis...hehehehehe...klop deh... Sebenarnya hidupku lebih simple lah...sekolah, sekolah dan sekolah, begitu hampir tamat sekolah nemu cowok *calon suami tepatnya* trus pacaran 2.5 taon and merit...tapi ternyata life begin after marrried bukan hanya milik para pria, para wanita pun ngalamin

Surprise di awal tahun

Tahun Baru...Hidup Baru...Harapan Baru... ...komplit deh... Ternyata surprise diawal tahun OK juga ya...hehehehe...semua ini berhubungan dengan our baby... Sugar Level Awal desember lalu...pas lagi scanning dokternya bilang baby-nya a bit fat *waks* ...aku sering baca-baca di internet...klo baby yang fat itu gak baik...banyak gak baiknya deh...akhirnya dokter langsung minta aku test darah karna dia curiga sugar level-ku naik fyi karna papaku seorang penderita diabetes jadi diawal kehamilan aku udah jalanin diabetes test...saat itu sugar levelku berada di level ideal (5.4) ... Hari itu pas dicek...ternyata sugar levelku naik tinggi sampe 9.6 *o'o* ...dokter langsung minta test darah lengkap 3 hari kemudian...ada kemungkinan karna aku baru abis breakfast jadi sugar level naik, tapi menurut dokter harusnya naik gak setinggi itu... aku sendiri gak merasa konsumsi sugar yang tinggi...malahan sejak hamil gak doyan ngemil sama sekali...makan bener" sesuai porsi gak ada yang berlebih
