daily postcard #140: Breathe

watercolor and drawing pen on paper

I think I need to change my habit.
this several months, i always wake up late.
Oke I do wake up in the morning, for pray, but then I always climb up to my bed and sleep again.
I was exhausted, and terribly sleepy.
Maybe it was because the night before, i had too much work, or too much deadline, or maybe just too much excuse to not go to bed early.
Well it's not healthy, i know.
This probably also one of the reasons why I fell sick yesterday.

So, today I think i need to change my habit. 
I wake up in the morning and take a deep breath. 
Filling my lungs with morning air. 
And then I wear my sneakers, which I bought a few months ago and I never use it to exercise at all.
Well, it's fun to start exercising again after long absent.
It makes my body become lighter and fresh.

maybe you should try it too.
Breathing in the morning air
and start running.

daily postcard #139: wake up

watercolor and drawing pen on paper

This couple day i had a very very long night.

i got sick and it feel terrible.
i spent my day laying on my bed but its doesn't feel comfortable at all.
i want to sleep but i can't.
i want to breath easily but i don't know why it's very hard.
i was hungry, but when i eat something, i'm throw up on my bed in the middle of the night.
oh, i'm not enjoy it. this weakness is depressing.
i had enough. i want to recover quickly.

And then this morning my mother come into my room.
she wake me up like she always do when i was a child.
between a vague consciousness, it seems I heard my mother whispered
"What are you hold up, girl? You can stop pretending like everything was okay. I know deep down you feeling sad."
Maybe it was a dream. But i deny it. "No I'm not sad."
"Oh, you were sad. Because I know when you sad, you become upset and then you got sick. Like now."

No, I'm no sad.
i just had a very very long night this couple day.

"Then wake up. Look, it's morning already."

But I keep my eyes closed.
Not now. Just, let me sleep a little longer before i face this scary world today.

I woke up a few hours after my mother left.
and strangely, I can breath easily and i feel all better.
her whisper is just like a spell that take all my pain away

i feel like waking up from a very long night

daily postcard #128: the flowers on my head

watercolor and drawing pen on paper

this time, i draw a flower for myself.

yesterday i had a hard time.
it kind of disappointing when someone blame us for something.
when they made us into the villain for something that is not our fault.
it seems unfair.
but you know, anger is just like the fire.
it burn the problem. it doens't solve anything. 

so all i can do is just take a breath and try to be patient. 
even i was surprise for myself.
well, the "younger me" would never do this. 
i'll yell them back and angry. 
but the "now me" not do that.

maybe, all this time there's a flowers that grow slowly on my head.
it calms me down. 
the colors, the scent, and the beauty of them make my head cooler, 
make my heart warmer. 
make all the problem on my bad day gone. 
vanish into nothing.

well, maybe right now you're also growing some flower on your head. 
or maybe on your heart. 
you just don't know yet.
just wait and see.
