You
come in the wrong time. That’s what people said to me, MbakDiah and
MbakTeja. We came to Alor when the west monsoon came. The sky was
grey all the time and the dark clouds kept sending heavy rain. The
sea was welling up albeit remaining calm.
I
could have drown in sadness and regret, but I just forgot to do so.
Every thing I saw was quite new and I love the scenery. I indeed said
to myself that it must be more beautiful to see them when it is not
raining. But strangely enough, I just forgot to feel resentment.
All
things bright and beautiful, even in bad weather.
I
was surprised to find that even this old grey brain played a tune to
the trip. I didn’t give command to open the file. It just played
John Rutter’s song over and over: Look at the world, everything
all around you. Look at the world and marvel every day…
