Prestasi Perempuan

Menjadi seorang perempuan yang tidak terikut arus dan menjadikan tiktok/sosmed sebagai standar pemikiran dan pandangan adalah sebuah prestasi yang menurutku besar. Keep it up :)

I’m not generalizing about that. Tapi rasanya tak sulit menemukan postingan yang viral di sana tentang berbagai bias pemikiran dari perempuan, oleh perempuan, untuk perempuan. And you know what’s the effect dear?

Pemikiran yang bias bisa bikin kita salah dalam memandang sesuatu. Kesalahan cara pandang bisa jadi sebab salah mengambil sikap dan kesimpulan. Salah mengambil kesimpulan berakibat pada salah dalam mengambil keputusan dan tindakan. So keep it in mind. Tidak semua orang bisa diambil pandangannya meskipun viral, meski terlihat benar hanya karena banyak yang ngelike dan mewakili sisi perasaan. Jangan lupakan bahwa kamu masih punya kecerdasan untuk menimbang kebenaran dari sebuah pernyataan. 'Dear My Future' | Quraners

⏰Through the Window of Time🕰️ (19 years ago) [onlyfans.com/nonnie_40dd]

The window I look through, framed by the past, A glimpse of the journey, how time moves so fast. Where once there was wonder, now wisdom remains, The lessons I've gathered, the joy, and the pains.

The woman at the window, she’s still part of me, But stronger, more certain, of what she can be. We peer through the window of all we have known, Reflect on the seeds that our choices have sown.

🗓️ Organizing Your Witchy Rituals 🌙✨

Hello darlings 🥰

It is easy to feel overwhelmed by all the witchy things you’d like to do, so creating a schedule for your witchy rituals can bring structure and balance to your practice. Here's a suggested weekly timetable to inspire you:

🌕 Monday: Moon Magic On Mondays, align your practice with the energy of the moon. Perform rituals for manifestation, divination, or connecting with your intuition. Charge and cleanse your crystals under the moonlight.

🌿 Tuesday: Herb and Plant Magic Dedicate Tuesdays to working with herbs and plants. This can involve creating herbal remedies, growing your magical herb garden, or connecting with the spirit of plants through meditation and nature walks.

🔥 Wednesday: Elemental Magic Explore the power of the elements on Wednesdays. Work with fire for transformation, air for communication and clarity, water for emotions and intuition, and earth for grounding and stability. Incorporate rituals that honor and connect with each element.

🔮 Thursday: Divination and Spellcasting On Thursdays, focus on divination and spellcasting. Use tarot cards, oracle decks, or other divination tools to gain insight and guidance. Perform spellwork to manifest your desires and bring positive change into your life.

✨ Friday: Self-Care and Enchantment Fridays are dedicated to self-care and enchantment. Take time to pamper yourself with magical baths, create sacred spaces, or explore beauty rituals that enhance your inner and outer radiance. Practice self-love and self-empowerment spells.

🌟 Saturday: Spirituality and Connection Saturdays are perfect for deepening your spiritual practice and connecting with the divine. Engage in meditation, explore different spiritual traditions, work on your energy healing techniques, or perform rituals to connect with your spirit guides or ancestors.

📚 Sunday: Study and Reflection Use Sundays for studying and reflecting on your magical path. Dive into books, online resources, or courses that expand your knowledge of witchcraft, spirituality, or esoteric subjects. Journal about your experiences, insights, and personal growth.

A healthy and effective schedule will always be unique to you, but I hope this guideline will inspire you to take more control of your time as a practicing witch 🥰✨

Prometheus

If I could just reach my worn and shaky hands back through time, and tear open my chest to steal back the fire of my heart, like Prometheus; to give myself the gift of hot-blooded gusto and set the world ablaze with nothing more than my passions, piss, and vinegar. I could conquer the world today, if I only had a sliver of the stamina I had yesterday. Maybe tomorrow then. I could douse myself in gasoline and ignite once more to shine as a bright beacon of hope, that any one of us on any day, can be beautiful and brilliant... mighty and magnificent... careening through our concrete fates, like a mad car crashing through the guard rails, driving hot and hard and fast, for as far and as long as the fuel will take us. Except...who can afford the gas these days? Maybe tomorrow...never comes, what then? Then tonight I must remind the stars that we streaked and stormed among them long ago, like cracks of lightning chasing after comets while God was crafting all of creation. We were the fucking light meant to cut the dark in half and blind the envious eyes of angels and eternity. We still are... I just forget how to do it from time to time.

If there were an option to turn back time, I wouldn't rewind it. I like where I am now, and I appreciate all the struggles I've gone through to reach this point.

Vitamin bersyukur

Sometimes we often take everything for granted. Today, through my junior's story i realized that i have so many things that i take it for granted such as; my body, my time, my family..

She tell us the story with a strong heart that her mom can't move her body anymore :( eventhough she doesn't shed a tears but her eyes showed what she have been through. Hopefully, Allah Subhanahu Wa Ta'ala ease everything you did, strengthening your imaan and make you healthy always. Aamiin

May this story reminded me for a long time in the bottom of my heart and impact my action. Aamiin

To Do List dan Kalender Digital.

Sejak bekerja di sebuah perusahaan Swasta di Jakarta dulu, salah seorang mentorku mengenalkanku dengan fitur kalender outlook. Ia terbiasa memasukkan semua jadwalnya dan to do list harian ke dalam outlooknya.

Dari situpun aku belajar bagaimana agar dalam sehari benar-benar produktif. Setiap bulan target2 itu akan di review sekaligus schedule bulan selanjutnya.

Bahkan, atasanku rata-rata memasukkan jadwal mereka ke dalam kalender yang kesemuanya telah terintegrasi, sehingga kami sebagai bawahan pun mengetahui jadwal beliau.

Aku pun masih ingat saat melanjutkan studi di Swedia dulu, termasuk saat training di Inggris, kalender professorku rata-rata dapat diakses, sehingga kita bisa tahu availabilitas beliau tanpa harus mengonfirmasi manual. Termasuk booking meeting dengan beliau pun semua sudah melalui kalender tsb, dan tersinkronisasi dengan semua device selama kita login akun tersebut. Saat kita ingin membooking study room pun juga sudah terconnect melalui platform digital, dan setiap orang memiliki batas maksimum waktu utk menggunakanya. Hal yang aku impikan semoga suatu saat digitalisasi ini benar benar menyeluruh di tempatku sekarang.

Hingga saat ini aku masih membiasakan diri mencatat segala to do list dan jadwal melalui outlook calendar dan microsoft to do list. Untuk mengurangi whatsapp mahasiswa keperluan konsultasi aku menggunakan microsoft booking form yang juga tersinkron di kalenderku. Sengaja kubuat link kalenderku visible ke para mahasiswa agar mereka dapat mengetahui availabilitasku. Rasanya begitu puas saat mengetahui to do list itu tercentang satu per satu.

Sayangnya barangkali tidak semua orang familiar dengan fitur fitur seperti ini. Undangan rapat bahkan mengirim file skripsi kadang masih lewat wa, yang membuat memori hp mudah sekali penuh (apa wktunya ganti hp wkwk). Kadang aku berpikir padahal untuk berlangganan fasilitas seperti ini, sudah pasti institusi membayar mahal, namun sayangnya belum terutilisasi secara maksimal. Akhirnya digitalisasi tak ubahnya seperti hal-hal manual yang dilakukan secara digital.

Apakah kamu merasakan hal yang sama?

WHY NEIL PERRY

CONTENT Warning - emotional traumas and childhood trauama - based on true experiences

I never thought I'd write this - but I wanted to write this because I thought it might be helpful...

So, this is a bit of a personal thing but ever since I sat down and watched DPS something struck me. I had denied it on my first watch but I couldn't ignore it when I rewatched it. My life in many ways mirrors Neil's. Mr. Perry's words gave me a sense of deja vu - because my dad had used the words on me too - Like you have more opportunities than I ever had - this acting business (writing for me) - - You can do anything after college (when you're on your own)

It took me a while to understand and fully grasp the toxicity of the relationship. Then I started looking back - and I saw things from a new light. I was a child and I thought that it came out of love (maybe it did - but I doubt that now - no child deserves emotional or physical trauma like that). I think that is the reason I constantly keep apologising for everything (even when I did nothing wrong)

The confrontation Neil has with his father hurts me but I am also numbed now - I am in a pit (following what my father told me to do) - I feel suffocated and sometimes I feel nothing and sometimes I feel everything - Honestly it hurts and guts me - I can understand where my dad is coming from but it still hurts - because they don't seem to understand anything about me - They want me to look at it from their perspective and they want me to be grateful - but they never look at things through my perspective.

If you've been through a similar experience - reach out. Find a friend to talk to. Find someonoe who you can trust - don't look for temporary distractions. Find your place and find your strength there - And if possible find distance (that has helped me big time - the distance allows me to maintain a better mind-set) - Meditate and keep fighting for the things you love. Find love and take a chance and seize the day (start with small things - like writing a blog or reading or listening to music).

Know that you're not alone; know that there are people you can talk to and know that you are enough. There are people that love you and understand you and they will be your family (believe me family is not about blood - sounds cliched now but trust me - FAMILY IS FOUND AND FAMILY REACHES OUT TO ONE ANOTHER - THEY UNDERSTAND EACH OTHER AND THEY TRY TO LEARN FROM MISTAKES - THEY TRY TO HELP EACH OTHER)

Love, that is a place to start. Love yourself - love the little things in life and try to do something new (I started playing Pool it's something I wasn't encouraged to do because everyone kept on telling me that I'll tear the fabric - and I reconnected with theatre which is something I fell out of due to personal reasons - I didn't go for one audition because I had cousins coming over and I didn't want to inconvenience anyone - then they treated us badly and everyone blamed me for a breakdown - when I told them that I gave up for a reason a relative asked what and then they gaslit me when I said no one came to my defence when I had the breakdown by telling me that they always defended me)

I am eternally grateful for this film because it made me realise the extent of emotional trauma I had. It helped me see my strengths and find my own courage. It's never easy - Believe me it isn't, but you have to keep on fighting. You're incredible and talented and bold - find your courage and love yourself.

So, Neil Perry, thank you. You made me see the truth and love myself. Update - things have improved but they have a long way to go - I am still apologetic and my parents act like nothing happened - It is hard but at least there is temporary relief - It's not enough but for now - It's all I need

Hidup adalah seni berdamai dengan kekhawatiran.

Terlihat tegar dan baik-baik saja di tengah riuh di hati dan kepala adalah topeng yang "biasa" dipakai oleh semua orang.

Waktu masih sekolah (yang pada waktu itu masih ada UN), khawatir tidak lulus.

Begitu mengambil keputusan untuk kuliah dan menjalaninya, khawatir tidak lulus tepat waktu.

Sudah lulus kuliah, khawatir tidak punya pekerjaan.

Sudah bekerja dan semakin tambah umur, khawatir tidak bisa menikah.

Dan sekarang sedang di fase, khawatir tentang anak dan karir yang terasa stagnan dalam hal pencapaian maupun penghasilan.

Lalu akan tambah menjadi berat ketika kepala mengeluarkan kalimat-kalimat "seandainya dulu begini, seandainya dulu begitu" dan menjadi lupalah akan setiap nikmat yang sudah Allah berikan. Astaghfirullah..

Di umur ini, memang sudah seharusnya bisa me-manage rasa khawatir ini dengan lebih bijak. Sebisa mungkin tidak mempengaruhi aktifitas sehari-hari. Saat bekerja, bersosialisasi dengan teman, maupun berkumpul dengan keluarga. Karena aku menyadari perasaan itu bisa beresonansi dan mempengaruhi yang lain.

Selain itu, di umur ini pula aku menyadari semua orang sibuk dengan dunianya masing-masing. Dan hanya orang-orang tertentu yang dikaruniai empati dan rasa peduli terhadap orang lain.

Maka memakai topeng "baik-baik saja", bisa jadi adalah keputusan yang bijak.

Lepaskan topeng itu dalam sujud-sujud panjang dan do'a-do'amu. Ceritakan dan tumpahkan semuanya. Semua rasa berat dan sesak itu, karena hanya Allah Sang Pemilik hatimulah yang bisa menenangkanku.

Kalaupun butuh bercerita dengan orang lain. Maka pastikan orang itu betul-betul bisa menjaga rahasia dan bisa memberikan masukan yang bijak. -Dan lagi-lagi indikatornya adalah kedekatan orang itu dengan Allah dan kepahaman agamanya-

Salah tempat bercerita, bisa-bisa malah jadi bumerang untuk diri sendiri. Entah malah disebarluaskan, atau diberi saran yang tidak tepat.

Tetapi.... terkadang aku merasa rasa khawatir inilah yang menjadi alarm bagi diri untuk terus dekat dengan Allah dan mengingatNya dalam kondisi apapun. Maka akupun bersyukur masih merasakan perasaan ini, menyadari bahwa manusia itu lemah dan selalu membutuhkan Allah dalam setiap langkah.

Alhamdulillah 'alla kulli hal, semoga Allah senantiasa karuniakan rasa tenang pada hati hamba-hamba-Nya.

Mulailah berdamai dengan rasa khawatirmu, jadikan ia pengingat untuk selalu mendekat kepada Tuhamu

:)

Hello Everyone,

Lately, I’ve been waking up at 5 AM because it’s when my brain feels most active and productive. However, after coming home late yesterday, I struggled to wake up early today. It’s a reminder that productivity isn’t always as perfect as it seems. Sometimes things don’t go as planned, and adapting to those circumstances is key. 🌟

I just have to say how much I love being part of the studyblr community. It’s amazing to connect with so many people, even though my first language is Spanish. Sharing experiences and thoughts with others around the world is such a wonderful feeling. It’s incredible to know that so many of us enjoy this exchange of ideas and support.

I’ve noticed some people miss the “real” studyblr vibes with less polished, aesthetic photos, and I get that. There’s something special about a more authentic approach. But I also think that romanticizing study scenarios and sharing aesthetically pleasing content can be a nice escape during breaks. After all, there’s nothing more real than days like today when motivation is low, and I have to make an extra effort to remember my goals and complete my to-do list. 📚✨

Wishing you all a productive and fulfilling day. Remember, it’s okay to take things one step at a time and find joy in the process. Keep pushing forward and stay kind to yourself. 🌟

Journaling for Spiritual Growth 📝✨

Hello darlings 🥰

Writing down your thoughts and experiences is a powerful tool for spiritual growth! Keeping a journal can help you to track your progress, clarify your goals, and connect with your inner self. 

Here are some tips to get started:

🔮 Set aside some dedicated time each day to journal. Find a quiet, comfortable space where you can focus without distractions.

🔮 Start by writing down your goals and intentions for your spiritual practice. What do you hope to achieve? What areas do you want to focus on?

🔮 Reflect on your experiences and emotions. Write down any insights or realisations that come up. Don't worry about being perfect or having all the answers - the point is to explore and grow.

🔮 Use prompts to inspire your writing. Some examples include: "What am I grateful for today?", "What is causing me stress and how can I address it?", or "What lesson did I learn from a recent challenge?".

🔮 Experiment with different styles of journaling. You can try writing in a free-flowing, stream-of-consciousness style, or use structured prompts and exercises.

🔮 Consider incorporating other tools into your journaling practice, such as tarot or oracle cards, affirmations, or visualisations.

Remember, there is no right or wrong way to journal. The most important thing is to show up for yourself and be open to the process. Happy writing! 🥰✍🏽

Midnight Resolutions

I'll whisper this vow into the breeze, making certain it carries on in the safekeeping of the wind's arm, until it strikes your ears. I'm being drained... more surely than slow. I am using up what emotions I have. Meager as they are, they have kept me alive up to now. Yet, this black hole is ripping from me the energy to repair. So I shall leap in after it in deliberate delirium, and make certain that I take back what I hold as my own. In this resolve I now stand atop a hill gazing at the sky. At twilight's side with pen of fire writing my message in the stars... so everyone can look upon the midnight hour of my heart.

Deja Vu Love: Why We Repeat Relationship Patterns and How to Change

Love, while enchanting, can often feel like running in circles. Have you ever found yourself drawn to the same kind of partner time and time again? With a sense of déjà vu as you repeatedly find yourself with eerily similar partners. Why is this?

Once upon a time, I can confess I had a "type." I was irresistibly drawn to people's pain. It wasn’t a drive to 'fix' them or some dark intrigue, but rather, seeing a mirror image of my own internal turmoil. I could see it in their eyes, it was evident in their smile, it peeked through in their laugh, and it was obvious we wore the same burdensome mask to hide our scars. I naively believed building a bond based on shared trauma would help us understood each-others better and that we would guide each other on a road to healing. Instead, our pain inflicted more wounds on each other, that reinforced our negative beliefs and justified our unhealthy behaviors.

At the time it made sense, though looking back the flaw in my logic seems clear: Like the blind leading the blind, how can those equally lost, lead one another to light? This personal revelation reflects a challenge many people face in relationships. Chasing after partners based on idealized fantasies rather than real-world truths. It's easy to say, "I have a type," confidently stating our preferences, but do we ever pause to ask why? Are we genuinely yearning for a compatible soul, or are we simply seeking the traits of a person who idealizes a fantasy?

We must find the courage to question our desires. Only then can we uncover whether we're pursuing shallow ideas, or true compatibility and genuine connection. Consider someone who's always wanted a stable, money-wise family because they didn't have that growing up. They might be drawn to a potential partner’s flashy lifestyle. But does a flashy exterior equate to genuine financial security? How can they spot traits of financial stability if they've never known what it looks like? This logic can be applied to many different scenarios.

The cure to break free from that same old love loop comes down to being brave enough to dig into our wants. Learn what the healthy version of our desires looks like, so we don’t get lured by cheap imitations of it. Failure to do this keeps us entangled in familiar, yet potentially toxic patterns. The path to healthy, sincere, and nurturing relationships begins when we discern the real needs beneath our desires.

If you’re stuck in a loop of similar romantic choices, remember acknowledging the pattern is the first step. Dive deep within, challenge your reasoning, and aim for authentic connections. Together, we can break the cycle of déjà vu love.
