What is Luck, anyway...

My visits to my sister home in Cimanggis-Depok yesterday afternoon pointed in reunion with Lila, a friend of mine from adolescence.

The meeting was full of surprises. I were pushing the car, she was driving a motorcycle through with a teenage daughter. In my head she still wanders in Kalimantan and Lila certainly think that my family home is just memories.

Of course, the meeting lasted with a gala. We cheer as the two of former village girls. Embrace such as Tele Tubbiest, completed with words of longing. Does it the right time to tell all about the memories? Right!

Initially we did wine-soaked as we didn’t change so much. Of course we changed a lot. Who is on earth able removing the impression of the time in their face?

Believe it or not, a few days before I often think of Lila. I have had a planning to visit of her mother house later on idulfitri celebration. According to my sister, Lila’s mother often asked about me. She has currently living in beds more because of poor health.

In the exhilaration I said that the law of attraction was working. Only then, I had known that Lila does not seem to have any picture about the book of The Secret. Then the talk around the Law of Attraction (LoA) couldn’t be forwarded.

My deep impression on Lila, this beautiful lady has a very positive character. I don’t remember whether she used to as well. One for certain, the reunion showed Lila’s temperament that I have learned furiously through the books of motivation. See the good side of all events that crossing our life.

That was revealed when Lila said that she was lucky to know her husband cheating as early so that she can make decisions more quickly. She has long been a wish to leave Kalimantan for giving her elderly and sickly mother. Such events like the gong brunt of her awareness to pull back to Jakarta.

Later, Lila feels fortunate of the decision was she taken by. Her cheated husband also realizes he couldn’t make without her and their children. He realized the blunder and decided moved from the island that they have lived for almost 12 years.

Lila’s family now plans starting everything from scratch. My lovely friend said that she is not rich, not smart enough, but she knows that she wouldn’t lack anything because she had everything with her talent: trading goods.

Indeed, there is no wall that is too high for those who known what they want.
