Tidak Semua Harus

Berbeda bukankah tidak berdosa. Kenapa kita harus selalu mengikuti arus. Cobalah sejenak bertanya kepada diri sendiri, jika aku mengikuti orang kebanyakan, bukankah disana ada kompetisi yang demikian ketatnya. Kenapa semua harus dikatakan sama dan dikatakan ideal. Seperti pendidikan, pernikahan, pekerjaan, dan kehidupan. Semua mengatakan menghargai perbedaan dan multicultural. Tetapi semua tidak siap jika ada seseorang yang mengambil keputusan berbeda. Dianggap aneh, tak umum, tak lazim. Bukankah manusia memang berbeda?. Rangkaian gen DNA pun berbeda, warna kulit, tampilan fisik, ras, bangsa, Bahasa.

Semakin tua saya semakin berfikir, tidak semua bisa disamakan. Kecepatan menyelesaikan pendidikan tinggi, mendapatkan pekerjaan impian, bahkan melakukan pernikahan. Semua manusia berjalan pada koridornya masing-masing. Menyelesaikan bab demi bab sendiri-sendiri. Tidak ada yang benar-benar lambat atau cepat. Nikmati saja momennya, prosesnya, tiap detik yang berjalan. Nikmati semuanya untuk berada dalam kondisi saat ini, sadar sepenuhnya. Kadang menikmati jeda adalah hal yang dilupakan banyak anak manusia.


Tidaklah sama semua proses semua insan, untuk berdamai dengan dirinya sendiri. Tidaklah sama prosesnya untuk sembuh atas setiap kegagalan, ada kalanya beberapa orang memilih menepi dan menjauh dari keramaian untuk mencari jawaban. Sesederhana diakhir hidup aku ingin jadi apa, menjalani hidup bagaimana, sosok seperti apa dan sifat bagaimana yang ingin dipertahanakan. Semuanya tidaklah sama dalam berproses.


Berdamailah kawan, nikmati fasemu, nikmati waktumu. What is belong to you will come !

The Power Imbalance When a Diplomat Dates You

  I never imagined that I would find myself entangled in a relationship with a man who held the title of diplomat . There is something inherently powerful about that word — a sense of nobility, intelligence, and integrity. For someone like me, who has always prided herself on being independent, educated, and emotionally resilient, the connection initially felt affirming. I thought, perhaps, I had finally found someone who could walk beside me as an equal. But what I didn’t realize at the time was how easily a title can conceal deeper truths — emotional manipulation , power imbalances, and an unspoken hierarchy that slowly erodes one’s sense of reality. Our story began online, like many modern romances. Joel Runnels introduced himself as a diplomat stationed in Central Asia , working in human rights advocacy . From the beginning, our conversations were intense and intellectually stimulating. He spoke about his work with disabled communities, policy reform, and global diplomacy. The...

When He’s a Different Person Behind Closed Doors

  You’ve probably never heard of Joel Runnels PhD — but in certain circles in Minnesota, he’s considered a quiet hero. A legislative affairs director who has dedicated decades of his professional life to disability rights and working for Minnesota Council on Disability , Joel is the kind of man who shows up at public hearings, writes compassionate policy briefs, and speaks with moral authority about equity, justice, and the need to protect society’s most vulnerable. He works closely with the Deaf community , disabled children, and families who rely on state policy to survive. But I knew another Joel. One who existed far away from the polished conference tables and media headlines. One whose mask would fall the moment the doors closed. And I’m finally ready to talk about him. This isn’t an exposé for the sake of revenge. This is my truth — and it’s also a mirror. Because too often, the people we are told to admire and trust the most are the very ones causing silent destruction behin...

When the Mask Falls: What I Learned After Being Lied to, Cheated On, and Gaslighted by a Diplomat

There’s a unique kind of heartbreak that comes not just from personal betrayal, but from betrayal by someone the world sees as respectable — someone who commands admiration, speaks with poise, and lives behind the diplomatic veil of charm and composure. I never thought I would find myself entangled in the emotionally devastating web of deceit, manipulation, and betrayal — especially not with a man trained to handle international relations, negotiations, and cultural sensitivity. But behind the polished exterior, I discovered a pattern of behavior that had been repeated many times before. A man who had fathered five children with two different women, leaving behind broken trust, confusion, and emotional damage. This is not a story told out of bitterness. It is told out of truth, growth, and a deep desire to help others recognize warning signs — and to choose themselves, every single time. The Charisma Trap He was everything that looked good on paper: well-educated, articulate, intellige...
