Sudahkah watakmu seteduh itu??

Kadang kita terlalu mudah kagum pada kepribadian seseorang. Cara ia berbicara begitu tenang, cara ia tersenyum begitu meyakinkan, cara ia memperlakukan orang lain seolah tanpa cela. Kita lupa bahwa semua itu hanyalah wajah yang sengaja dipoles untuk dunia. Kita lupa bahwa hidup bukan dijalani di panggung, tetapi di balik layar, di ruang-ruang kecil di mana topeng mulai retak dan sifat asli perlahan muncul.

Kepribadian adalah apa yang ingin mereka tunjukkan. Watak adalah siapa mereka sebenarnya. Dan hidup, entah suka atau tidak, selalu lebih banyak bersentuhan dengan watak. Sebab watak muncul di saat-saat yang paling jujur. Ketika marah, ketika kecewa, ketika lelah, ketika tak ada penonton.

Itulah sebabnya kita sering terkejut. Orang yang dulu kita kagumi, perlahan terasa melelahkan ketika kita mulai melihat wataknya. Dan mungkin, orang yang dulu kita pandang biasa saja, ternyata lebih teduh untuk kita jalani hari-hari, karena wataknya lebih tenang daripada penampilannya.

Maka belajarlah untuk tidak mudah terpikat oleh kepribadian yang rapi. Lihatlah cara seseorang bersikap pada hal-hal kecil, cara mereka memaafkan, cara mereka sabar pada yang lemah, cara mereka tetap jujur ketika tidak ada yang melihat. Di sanalah watak berbicara lebih lantang daripada semua kata-kata indah.

Dan jangan lupa, lihat juga ke dalam dirimu sendiri. Sudahkah watakmu seteduh kepribadian yang kau pamerkan? Sebab pada akhirnya, dunia ini tidak diingat dari siapa kita di depan orang banyak, tetapi siapa kita saat hanya tinggal diri sendiri.

I live my life in a constant state of grief of what I did, what I didn’t do, and what I can never do.

I feel too much and say too little.

You're advised to be on your guard as your personal boundaries and the commitments you have come into conflict. Although you've successfully warded off the scam attempts, you're still being advised to be on your guard. Beneath, there's a change for the better, and for the future, it's being advised that you focus on what is beautiful, good, and pertaining to your work, emotions, and health. You may find emotional fulfillment and happiness when you do so...

Letter to myself..

Dear Me,

Slow down. You don’t have to have it all figured out right away. You’re still learning and that’s okay.

I see you trying to be better, to treat people the right way, to show up with kindness even when it’s hard. I see how you replay conversations in your head, wondering if you said the right thing, wondering if you could have been more patient, more understanding. You care more than you let yourself believe. That already means something.

But remember this, you don’t need to treat people as they deserve, because you don’t always know what they’re carrying. You don’t always see the whole picture and you’re not meant to. So give grace freely. Speak gently. Listen more. People don’t always need answers from you, sometimes they just need your quiet presence.

And don’t forget yourself in all of this. You deserve the same kindness, the same patience, the same soft place to land. The way you treat others is a reflection of your heart but so is the way you treat yourself.

So keep going. Keep learning. Some lessons only come with time, and some kindnesses you give will never come back to you but that’s not the point.

The point is to keep becoming someone who makes the world lighter, softer, even in the smallest ways.

You’re doing better than you think.

Regards,,

Me
