A few months ago, I again questioned myself about the purpose of life. Until now, I still question it. Is this job truly my life's purpose? Then, are you okay?
Before I actually worked at this place, I decided to pray istikhoroh. One of the prayers is to ask for guidance on two options. In the end, I decided to work here.
But, this year I am questioning this again. Is it true that working in civil society is my life's goal? Previously, I told you that I lost the things I liked in the name of work.
I started to reorganize and started making short trips. I remember again the simple goal that I want to achieve, to become a writer where I can tell stories about my books. I like fiction writing, I want to be a fiction writer like Ayu Utami, my favorite writer.
But, I remember very well, when my boss reprimanded me because I read too much fiction. In fact, for me telling stories through fiction is a resistance. Can tell stories freely without being hampered by customs and norms.
That's just my story. What do you think? Don't forget to leave a comment on my story. Also share your story. Thank you very much.b
