Rainbow After Rain

---

Friend,
Do you remember, that morning, when the sun managed to sneak a little between the clouds that had filled the sky of Jakarta for several days, and of course Bekasi, when the frozen gaze appeared because you had not found an answer?

Yes, at that time, you happily said "I saw a rainbow, And, earlier, it was so beautiful!"

I was so shocked at that time, I never realized that you were also capable of having the same admiration that I often felt. Hmmm, but that's not what I'm going to say, friend, there's a small thing that's more important than just my surprise.

I just want to repeat what people have said, and also a song message, that rainbows usually appear after rain. "Like a rainbow after rain, that's it..." that's the excerpt of the song. Ah, why do I have to say this song, don't you know more about this song than I do, but never mind...

The song excerpt often reminds me of the moments when I hear your crisp laughter, or your distinctive slow smile. Ahhh, I know, you are someone who is always able to have a reason to feel happy. Why do I say that, friend? Yes, you are often able to laugh or at least smile with extraordinary sincerity just because of small things, or even silly things that they do unintentionally.

Friend, until some time later, a storm swept away your laughter, rain wiped away your smile. And what was my role? I was often only able to listen without providing a solution, I was often only able to comment briefly without being able to provide relief, yes, a lot of my inability appeared when you tried to find answers to questions that certainly filled all the spaces in your brain. What would the conclusion be like, maybe that's more or less the question mark that shot arrows to the corners of your empty heart.

Until then, one day, you said that you had concluded everything. And for the umpteenth time I was also surprised, and do you know? I don't really understand why I should be surprised. Hahahhahaha, I really deserve the title of idiot because of my strangeness, of course.

What is certain then I know is that the point of awareness that is your longing you have reached and you have passed. And I translate that the storm and rain may have passed a little, although the clouds sometimes still hang on your face, which I sometimes see is still often pensive...

Friend, I'm sure you must have been able to get through the storm that took all the joints of your feelings, and I know, you have also come to the belief that after the storm, after the rain, a rainbow will appear like the one you saw that morning.

And... that song will really be real in your life, friend, because that is His faithful promise to us.

Friend, I think that's it for now...
We'll continue again sometime.
