It's Not About Wind, Rain, or Storm

It's Not About Wind, Rain, or Storm

Originally written in Bahasa Indonesia.

In the entire history of mankind, we have never had the power to prevent the arrival of rain and its wind.

Instead of forcing the clouds to stop dropping their water, we can step aside or use a raincoat. Or if there is no other choice, learn to dance in the rain.

If then a storm comes, strengthen your heart, well, until we pass through it. Even if you have to walk, or even just crawl with a little bit of remaining hope.

Because, every soul that enters into the storm, it will never come out in the same state.

A boy who faces a storm, will step out as a tougher and more mature figure.
