“I need a vacation!” I said to myself on one particular busy day.
I’ve been in some sort of situation where I need to take some time alone, to tune into my inner quiet. To have a direct dialogue with myself. Something that impossible to do in Jakarta, with all those meetings and to-do lists. I decided instantly, that I need to go to Ubud, Bali.
Surprisingly, I got some answers of the question mark in my heart, from the book that I bought in Ubud, on a plane that took me back to Jakarta. God works in a certain unthinkable wonder. I’m very grateful for the wonderful experience.
Honestly, even though I love the paradise so much, I can never leave my heart and passion in Jakarta. Now, I should be able to create my own version of Paradise, by playing the memory of Ubud as much as I want.
I remember how Dewa wants to live in somewhere else and I asked him, “How can you get bored with Paradise?”
At the end of our conversation, we both agreed that we’re just human. We want what we don’t have. It’s grattitude that matters.
Thank you, Ubud, for teaching me life. Let’s meet again sometime.
Ps: All photos are taken with iPhone. It’s crappy at night. No flash, mind you. But I like 80% of the results, so, it’s worth it. Check complete pics on my Flickr.
