Dark reservoir

Gelap nan pekat. Suasana waduk di malam hari itu membuatku teringat akan banyak hal kelam yang pernah kulewati. Begitu berat perjuangan yang sudah kualami.

Namun, di tengah pekatnya malam, ada deretan cahaya yang menyinari pinggir waduk, membuat mata enggan untuk berkedip. Ia mampu mengalihkan perhatianku walau segelap apapun suasana.

Nyatanya, cahaya yang kecil sekalipun, tetap mampu mengalahkan kegelapan yang luas. Dari sana aku mulai yakin, sepahit apapun perjalanan hidup, tetap akan sirna bila dibersamai ini dengan dan hal-hal baik.

Dark and dense. The atmosphere of the reservoir at night made me remember many dark things that I had been through. So much struggle that I've been through.

However, in the middle of the dark night, there is a row of light shining on the edge of the reservoir, making the eyes reluctant to blink. He was able to distract me no matter how dark the atmosphere.

In fact, even a small light can still overcome the vast darkness. From there I began to believe, no matter how bitter the journey of life, it will still disappear when accompanied by good things.
