Living life, like climbing stairs, ladder of life. Always need a process to get to the top. The climax may be an encounter with God.
Desires and dreams also, when it comes to certain rungs, we always want to try to be on the ladder. The climax may be the happiness of those we love and re-assemble with our loved ones here or in eternity later.
When spinning, consciously or not, many things are no longer the same as before. Childhood mindset becomes memories that may be very funny and unforgettable. Like the science of rice, the more contain the duck, so says the wise. Age growth inevitably requires us to think and act more wisely.
About ideals, there are many ideals that come to mind. Different ideals at every stop of my age. Nowadays, the thing I most want to do is make both parents happy, reunite with them, and become useful human beings.
My newest dream is to be a memorizer of Al Quran. Either this moment of desire that briefly then bored, or just want to get the peace. But I hope I'm not bored.
This desire is present just like that when reading the writing of an older brother in high school. He said he wanted to be a memorizer of the Qur'an because in the Hereafter, God will put a crown on the heads of people whose children memorized the Qur'an. And I envy him Through prayers I thank you, may he be eased in memorizing His sentences. "Thank you, elder brother." 🙂
I know, to get to the top it's not easy. But it is enough that I learn harder than usual and pray longer than usual, and do not stop stepping except for the one who dismisses.
