Actually what I wanna share in here isn't about the doomsday issue whatsoever, I just wanna share my experiences today. I don't know but I feel so much blessed and lucky today.
Up until the afternoon, there's nothing so special happened to me. But then when I prepared myself to go back to Jakarta with Chika (but she'll go back to bekasehh), I feel so much blessed and lucky. Started from when we waited for BiKun a.k.a the yellow bus to arrive, we thought it's gonna take forever to wait for it but several minutes later, bikun arrived, so we just ran to it. When we entered the bus, I thought we won't have a seat. But guess what? the bus wasn't as crowded as it used to. So, we can sit peacefully there.
After we reached the station, we directly go to the locket to buy ticket, and you know what? there was no long line like I've predicted before, we bought the ticket easily without had to stand in a queue. Then, I thought we won't have a seat to wait in the station. But again, I was wrong. We got the seat to wait for the upcoming train to Jakarta. Several minutes later after we waited, the train with Jakarta-Kota destination has arrived :') OH MY GOD it's such a miracle because we didn't have to wait for a long time. So, we just entered the train and saw a very calming view. The train wasn't too crowded (but it wasn't empty as well). Again, we had seat in the train. After we arrived to Manggarai, I think Chika is a little bit worry about the schedule of the train to bekasi. Because since we were still at the rented room, the only thing that she worried about was the train to Bekasi that will arrive at late night. But Alhamdulillah, after we stepped down from the train, Chika directly saw the train to Bekasi was right in front of her. It was a truly miracle to see it. So, she just entered the train and I went to the exit way to see my dad.

| Chika thought the same thing with me |
On my way to home, I keep thinking about it and wondering how could it be? It's just like God ease our way to go back to our parents since we haven't seen them for about 3 weeks long. Then I started to think, is it really a luck? were we so blessed today?
But then I just realize, how could I say such a thing? Of course we were blessed today, we always get it everyday, we are blessed everyday by Allah SWT :) We just forget to thank sometimes because we are too busy to ask for Big Things and abandon the beautiful little things in our surrounding..........
I'll leave you with a poem by Sara Teasdale which is "Barter". Have a nice time to read it :)

Barter
Life has loveliness to sell,
All beautiful and splendid things,
Blue waves whitened on a cliff,
Soaring fire that sways and sings,
And children's faces looking up,
Holding wonder like a cup.
Life has loveliness to sell,
Music like the curve of gold,
Scent of pine trees in the rain,
Eyes that love you, arms that hold,
And for your spirit's still delight,
Holy thoughts that star the night.
Spend all you have for loveliness,
Buy it and never count the cost;
For one white singing hour of peace
Count many a year of strife well lost,
And for a breath of ecstasy
Give all you have been, or could be.
All beautiful and splendid things,
Blue waves whitened on a cliff,
Soaring fire that sways and sings,
And children's faces looking up,
Holding wonder like a cup.
Life has loveliness to sell,
Music like the curve of gold,
Scent of pine trees in the rain,
Eyes that love you, arms that hold,
And for your spirit's still delight,
Holy thoughts that star the night.
Spend all you have for loveliness,
Buy it and never count the cost;
For one white singing hour of peace
Count many a year of strife well lost,
And for a breath of ecstasy
Give all you have been, or could be.
