ZARASOL'S JOURNEY

Yang terhormat Ibu dan Bapak, Semoga Ibu dan Bapak senantiasa berada dalam lindungan Allah SWT, diberikan kesehatan, keberkahan usia, dan ketenangan dalam setiap langkah. Surat ini saya tulis di tengah jeda setelah membereskan rumah, mencuci, dan menyetrika pakaian. Di sela-sela keheningan itu, pikiran saya melayang pada sosok Ibu dan Bapak, dua hati yang penuh kasih dan ketulusan. Saya membayangkan perjalanan hidup yang telah Ibu dan Bapak tempuh, penuh pengorbanan dan cinta dalam mendampingi serta membesarkan anak-anak. Saya yakin, kasih sayang yang Ibu dan Bapak curahkan tidak pernah setengah-setengah. Cinta itu selalu hadir, diam-diam menguatkan, dalam doa maupun tindakan. Melalui surat ini, izinkan saya menyampaikan rasa terima kasih yang mendalam atas cinta tanpa syarat yang telah Ibu dan Bapak tanamkan. Terima kasih telah mendidik, membimbing, dan mencintai anak-anak dengan segenap jiwa. Saya merasa beruntung dan bersyukur atas segala cinta yang telah mengalir dari hati Ibu dan ...

Hai Kak, dalam perjalananmu kelak, berjalanlah dengan kerendahan hati yang melimpah ruah. Beberapa hari ini Ibu sedang mengikuti pelatihan di Bangkok, Thailand. Kegiatannya cukup padat, menguras tenaga, tapi alhamdulillah menyenangkan. Ibu bertemu banyak teman baru, belajar hal-hal yang sebelumnya belum pernah ibu bayangkan, dan merasakan dunia yang lebih luas. Tapi...di antara semua itu, ada satu hal yang tidak bisa ibu abaikan: bayanganmu yang entah kenapa selalu datang. Kamu mungkin belum hadir sepenuhnya di dunia ini, Kak. Tapi rasanya, jiwamu sudah lama mengitari kehidupan Ibu. Seperti udara yang tak terlihat tapi terasa. Seperti rindu yang datang sebelum pertemuan benar-benar terjadi.  Saat Ibu duduk sendiri di bandara Suvarnabhumi, menatap layar keberangkatan dan melihat orang-orang berlalu lalang, hati ibu terasa penuh. Penuh oleh harapan, doa, dan cinta yang diam-diam ditunjukan untukmu. Kak, semoga kelak kamu tahu...bahwa sejak jauh sebelum kamu bisa membaca surat ini, na...

Hello everyone, Assalamualaikum! Welcome to 'my notes session'. Alhamdulillah, today I finished my YSEALI WLA day 2, every Saturday morning. On this occasion, I'm going to explain what I learned from today's meeting. So, how was your life? I hope you are still happy and healthy. Aameen. Our Session In the second week of the virtual agenda, my friends and I listened to Kaiya Wadell's as the Director of Meta's Government and Social Impact team for Asia-Pacific, Kaiya shared some information about "Introduction to Emerging Technologies for Everyday Efficiency". Let's get started! Well, I will explain three points that I actually got. If you can add some insight, you can comment on my blog. I really want to know your opinion too.  First, it is about "AI is evolving to perceive the world like people do".  AI is getting smarter; it is learning to understand the world like humans do. What's happening now: Artificial Intelligence (AI)? AI is...

Assalamualaikum, Hi guys! In this nice occasion. I want to share some insights that I got from YSEALI WLA today. I'm very grateful for every chance I have. It seems that "nothing is impossible" as long as we keep trying. I met lots of awesome people there, and it amazed me. Explanation by Diana My feeling said, "That's exciting, you are part of the YSEALI WLA 2025 in the virtual agenda! We have fun games sessions, breakout rooms and discussions. Now, I listened to Diana Khaitova's session, and it sounds incredibly insightful. Let's break down her explanation about "the things that stop women from growing as leaders" in a clear, simple, and engaging way, hehehe. PUSH FROM SOCIETY This means society puts pressure on women to focus more on their homes and families than on their careers. 1. People often expect women to cook, clean, and take care of kids even when they have a full-time job. 2. Men don't usually get the same kind of pressure, whic...

I begin with my best-loved quote from Virginia Woolf: "No need to hurry, no need to sparkle, no need to be anybody but oneself" .All right, honey. This is the second day of Ramadhan, and happy fasting for you and the readers. Recently,  I found lots of bad news. I opened Instagram, and then yeah, it's very mind-boggling; I talked about our country. Are we in a good situation? As a matter of fact, we want something good to happen; the president has changed, but why do so many problems come? Do you know why? I don't have a fortitude even to answer my question, it seems really horrifying. Meanwhile, the dilemma of education, for example, is that teachers don't get a proper salary. These problems occur because of the poor system of education in our country, all of the people in that organization are educated, brilliant, and unique.  Yeah for sure, everyone cannot be blamed. Perhaps some people used their ascendant in the wrong way. No matter how the masses scream, the...

Hi, dude. How's it going? Welcome to my bounce-back era Hahahaha 😂I hope you're always happy and healthy. Today, I want to share my story about the YSEALI journey. It may help you to apply that activity later. The way I see it "it's just a long journey" I started in 2019, and I failed more than 3 times, but it's okay, I have to get used to failure. So, What is the YSEALI Academic Fellowship? Young Southeast Asian Leaders Initiative, Is like a youth student exchange agenda in the USA for 5 weeks. I tried many times but this year I got it! A lot of people may not know my process, making me think that the process is the important part if you want to do something. Zara and YSEALI 2025 I'm so tired bruh! everyone only knows the result but in fact, I'm struggling. I have to do a,b,c,d, etc, but you know? I still like the way I did. Since I know YSEALI is a program for young people, I've always been curious about how the program works. Once, I got the n...

Di tengah pikiran yang berkecamuk antara keinginan dan minimnya pengetahuan. Sulit memahami kesendirian, dan kesepian seringkali disalah artikan. Menjadi diri sendiri yang apa adanya, menerima bahwa ‘Aku itu ciptaanNya’ mungkin saja sering disepelakan. Tapi apapun kesusahan yang sekarang sedang dirasakan, memang ada baiknya untuk dipertanyakan, dijawab sedalam mungkin. Seperti, apa tujuan hidupku ini? Tentu saja ibadah kepada Tuhan. Kita mengabdi, memujaNya, untuk kembali pulang. Dalam tulisan ini saya akan membagi beberapa hal, sederhana saja, semoga suka ya. Pertama, belajarlah banyak hal bisa saja rejekimu itu seperti Ibnu Sina yang mahir diberbagai bidang, lho? Kelihatannya nggak mungkin, kata siapa? Kan belum dicoba, ah udah pernah nyoba tapi nggak ada kemajuan. Nah itu salah, improvement itu kan harusnya berangsur-angsur, jangan mencoba untuk menyimpulkan suatu eksperimen yang ‘sekali coba’ saja. Tahu apasih kita soal masa depan yang benar-benar ditutupi rapat oleh Allah? No on...

"Whatever you believe, you can achieve"  That's what my aunt Elsa and Fina said, they are my inspiration. Pangan Kito Community is the school of food waste in Sumatra. As a person who has experience in building a community, I’m going to share my short event in Palembang City, South Sumatra, Indonesia. Pangan Kito. The community known as Pangan Kito, or PK for short, is dedicated to reducing and resolving the issue of food waste in Sumatra, particularly in Palembang. According to the United Nations Environment Program (UNEP) Report data, Indonesia has become the largest contributor of food waste in the last year of 2024, the total amount of food waste is 14.73 million tons per year. Pangan Kito Team and FSC In this article, I will tell my story about the food waste journey with my team; Uswah, Anjali, Nita and Ummi. This is the first time I should build my community outside Bandar Lampung. I actually live in Bandar Lampung, and this is my challenge, the expedition was...

Morning all, Monday is a good day! Bukber RuangPangan 2023 Alhamdulillah, gue bener-bener bersyukur sama Allah SWT karena dikasih lingkungan yang sangat baik. Gue mau cerita ya, lumayan panjang nih di sini. Yuk, langsung aja! Kenalin gue zara, bisa dipanggil bunga juga. Nama lengkap Azzahra Sefta Soleha, lahir di bulan September, tahun dua ribu, udah lama banget ya, Alhamdulillah masih dikasih kesempatan sama Allah sampai usia sekarang, 22 jalan ke 23. Zodiak Virgo, ya gue senang banget kalo bahas soal zodiak ini, dikabarkan kalau zodiak virgo sangat cocok dengan taurus, kemudian diurutan kedua ada Capricon-Cancer dan Scorpio. Gue nggak percaya gituan, cuma bahagia aja waktu liat opini-opini tentang Virgo si perfeksionis.  Dulu gue tuh mudah kesel, emosian, cemburuan banget, egois, jelek banget deh sifat gue. Walaupun ada beberapa yang memang masih nempel, sifat keras kepala gue kadang suka nggak bisa ke kontrol, gue masih berusaha untuk menyadarkan diri sendiri. Gue sempet bertany...
