The Abstract of Myself

Whenever I’m asked to describe myself, “The universe is too small to be my world” is the best phrase I can utter. It doesn’t mean that I’m not contented with the world I have now, it’s just that, I’m the type of person who unceasing search for new world; to learn something new, to travel an adventure filled journey and to experience things that are often left undiscovered. My description of myself is quite vague for I believe that my reflection on a mirror can not give me the best judgment. Honestly, I tend to see myself base on what I believe, what I want and what I choose to see. But don’t get me wrong, I don’t describe myself in accordance to what I want, I just often fail to see my frailty and darkness. This is the reason why I consider other people’s opinion about me to be very important. I value what they have to say for I believe that they are my best critics. I may be confused to specifically describe myself, but I certainly know what I want.


I consider my weakness as my key to triumph; I could say that I’m a strong person beyond a frail frame. I welcome challenges open-heartedly and face it with brave heart.



Often, people see me as someone who is silent, serious and deep. These components of my being are just a fraction of my personality. My facade can not determine my substance. A person should know me, talk and listen to me before they can actually tell who I am.



I am also a spontaneous person who just let things be; I don’t hold on them too tightly or freely. I believe that things have their own nature and they follow the natural way of life. I am a lover of life for I believe what life means; I savor every moment of my existence. I consider every second as something unique because it can never be replaced or returned. More importantly, the mistakes we had done can never be corrected, it will just serve as a learning we have to carry on in order to avoid another blunder in life. Because of this thought, I learned to give my best in everything I do, even if I fail, I know I tried hard. I also learned to think before doing anything in order to save myself from regression.



As human, I live by having the three values I consider to be very essential in one’s life. First is acceptance, I’m a passive person who doesn’t like to argue that much, but certainly, I know when to stand whenever someone pulls me down. Second is understanding, before I accept things or situations, I believe I must learn to understand first in order to justify my acceptance. And last is love, I believe and in fact, it is a fundamental aspect of humans, love can make infinite possibilities because everything starts from it.



Whenever I’m asked to describe myself, I just give vague answers, I want people to discover themselves what they want to know about me. Surely, their assessment of me is true for their judgment is unbiased. What I may say, may not be true to them and what they may say is something I fail to see.
