WHEN I WAS YOUNGER I SAW MY DADDY CRY AND CURSE AT THE WIND; MY MOMMA SWORE THAT SHE WOULD NEVER LET HERSELF FORGET.

Suatu hari dalam sebuah perjalanan di sekitaran bali utara, saya mampir di daerah pegunungan kebun cengkeh. Ada rasa bahagia yang tulus timbul dengan sederhana ketika saya memperhatikan masyarakat di desa sini.

 

collection by I Ketut Gede — Singaraja Bali, 1890.

asmaradhana is an exploratory space of mine in reflecting life experiences. The pieces in this blog is a collaboration work of my conscious mind and my feelings, thoughts, urges, my memories.

When Pramoedya said to write is to work for eternity, I say my writing is to survive the flaming forge of life.
