Ko(-)Pi Pantai

Sepanjang jalan negara yang tercium hanyalah aroma laut bertanda pesisir sudah dekat
Sedang dalam kepala ingatan tentang kopi dan halaman rumahmu jadi teman sepanjang lamunan
Benar kata penyair
Waktu itu yang diminum bukan kopi
Setiap tegukan adalah candu temu bagi para tamu.


Larantuka, 2022

THIS IS LOVE

  THIS IS LOVE This is love- not the fleeting whisper of the world, nor the fragile warmth that fades with time.           but the quiet, Steadfast, Presence, that found me even before I knew your name.   This is love- the one who walks beside me, in the winding path of my vocation. in every yes that trembles on my lips, in every doubt you gently turn into trust.   This is love- when my soul longs and aches for meaning, You fill the empty spaces within me. like light pocking through broken windows, making even my wounds glow with grace.   This is Love- When hunger rises deep within my heart, not for bread alone, but for purpose. you became my daily Potion, the Bread that satisfies without end.   This is love- You who shaped me in your wisdom, who wove my uniqueness with tender hands, turning my gifts into quit offerings. reflections of your own beauty in me. ...

The Smile of Jesus in Holy Week

  The Smile of Jesus in Holy Week Along the silent road of sorrow where shadows gather on the hill Jesus walks beneath the burden of the cross He chose to bear. Thorns rest upon His wounded brow blood falls like quiet prayer; yet in the depth of all His suffering a gentle smile is there. Not a smile that hides the anguish nor one that denies the pain but a smile born out of mercy a love the cross cannot restrain. He sees the world before Him: its wounds, its fear, its sin and still He smiles with tender grace inviting hearts to come within. Oh Holy Week, so full of mystery you whisper truths so deep that love can shine through darkest nights and hope can wake from sleep. For even on the road to Calvary when heaven seemed so far the Savior’s quiet, faithful smile became our guiding star. And from the cross He still is smiling not in triumph yet, but love for He knows the dawn is coming and resurrection waits above. SMAL, March 31, 2026 By: S. A...

“DO THIS IN MEMORY OF ME.”

  “ Do this in memory of me. ” — these words of Jesus Christ are not only meant to be remembered, but to be lived every day. As we remember this Holy Thursday, we are drawn into that sacred moment when Jesus sat with His disciples—sharing a simple meal, breaking bread, and offering Himself completely. In that quiet evening, He showed us what true love looks like: humble, self-giving, and faithful until the end. The love of Jesus is unconditional love —a love that cannot be measured. It is not based on how good we are, how perfect we seem, or how worthy we feel. He loved even when He was about to be betrayed. He loved even when He knew He would be abandoned. And in the same way, He loves us today—completely, patiently, and endlessly. In our present world, especially for young people, love is often confused with approval, popularity, or temporary feelings. We live in a time of pressure—pressure to fit in, to be accepted, to be “enough” in the eyes of others. Social media can ma...
