Sometimes in movies or books, especially
maybe in the certain genre like romance or drama, you will easily find a similar
line.
“Everything’s gonna be okay”, “Everything
will be just fine”, “Everything will be alright”
“Semua akan baik-baik saja”
And it just struck me, how comforting those
words are.
I start to think of people that might have
said those words to me and I found no one. Not even my parents. At least not
specifically like that. Every soothing word that I’ve ever received sounds so
vague, and it kinda makes me feel sad.
In those movies or books, the main
character would have been through some troubles or conflicts, and when she/he
gets really really down, that somebody will cheer her/him up by saying those
lines.
“Everything will be alright”
Problems won’t easily get solved like that,
everybody knows it. But you know, it’s that line that somehow will strengthen
you up. Gives you power. Gives you hopes to walk through every obstacle and
pains that might be waiting ahead of you. And you’ll feel content and ready to endure whatever it is. That’s it.
Cliché but it’s true.
I wonder when my time will come to have someone
by my side that will say those comforting words whenever I feel down or
miserable. Maybe it will be amazing to have my parents said it to me, but I doubt
it. We don’t talk stuffs to our parents.
I started to think of my friends. Some are
my best ones. Then I realized, I mostly do crazy things with them. Also, somehow,
I’m the type of friend that always looks happy. Even when I’m sad, I could hide
it from them and start being happy instead. It’s not that I fake it, but
somehow, I really could forget my miseries whenever I’m with my besties. I hardly
remember when was the last time I wreck down and share it to my friends.
However, once again, it would be nice to
have that particular person around you. It doesn’t have to be the one that
could solve all your problems, give you advices, and tell you what to do. It’s
more like somebody that could pat your back, hug you and comfort you by telling
that everything will be just fine.
Hey, semua akan baik-baik saja! :)
xoxo,
PS: Funny thing, by the time I wote this, I was saying that line "everything will be just fine" for real to my friend. It kinda felt so good to at least comforting someone over such a simple meaningful chain of words.
