On Insecurity

It's been a long time since the last time I wrote in this blog. I'm pretty well but not quite great. 

The topic that I'm gonna talk about here is something that I'm familiar with, which is insecurity. 

If I have to be honest, I've been dealing with insecurity for the past few years. It was because I always feel left out compared to people my age in terms of achievements. The feeling struck me whenever I see them who have been achieving so many things in life while I still feel clueless about what I should do in life.

Feeling insecure is like a disease because it can affect many aspects in your life. When you feel insecure, you think that you're not good enough and it holds you for doing things that you actually good at but you can't see it because you're already feel like you're not enough.

I found this interesting perspective about insecurity from someone's tweet. He tweeted, "...insecurity is the worst thing you can unconsciously feed into your mind. It buries your potential, it clouds your decision-making, it ruins your relationship with others, & it puts a wall between you & opportunities in front of you."

That tweet made me realized just how bad insecurity is. We should not give it any space in our mind because it can make us doubt ourselves and make us feel inferior when in fact we all have our own strengths and different life timelines.

Life is not a race, it's not a competition between us and others because we all have different starting points, different privileges, and what's certain is we all have different goals in life. Life is about us trying to become a better version of our past self not about competing with others.

After all, the timeline of our journey, where the journey took place, the opportunities we got and the struggles we encounter might be different but what we have in common is we all striving to make our dreams come true and live peacefully in life.

No, it's not like I'm having a crush on you I'm not I don't have any feeling for you (you're not my type btw) It's just because I'm nervous You know that I often feel nervous when I'm with someone I don't really know That is what I feel when you're around It's not your fault And I'm sorry if I ever make you uncomfortable with what I did I'm just feeling nervous But I believe that As time goes by, this feeling will fade And I will get used to you being around  #randomnotes

Pencakar Langit Sampah (Jabodetabek tenggelam dalam gunung sampah) Oleh : Andrea Amalia Salma, terjemahan liputan The Jakarta Post dengan judul Skyscraper of Waste oleh Vela Andapita dan Sausan Atika) Pernahkah kalian menghitung jumlah sampah yang kalian hasilkan? Jabodetabek, dengan lebih dari 30 juta penduduk, mengirim lebih dari 14.000 ton sampah ke TPA (Tempat Pembuangan Akhir) setiap harinya. Untuk lebih jelasnya, limbah yang sudah dihasilkan oleh Jabodetabek selama tiga tahun terakhir dapat mengisi gedung pencakar langit tertinggi di Jakarta, yaitu Menara Gama yang memiliki tinggi 310 meter. Aliran sampah yang sangat deras, ditambah lagi dengan pengelolaan sampah yang buruk, telah membawa area metropolitan ke dalam krisis.
