Why God Keep Me in Wait?

When it comes to marriage, there were times when I wonder why God keep me in wait while others are getting married in a flash. Not that I'm jealous with my friends who get married earlier, it's just a random thought, why?

For me marriage has always been my top of mind. In high school where all my friends were busy choosing uni, I want to get married. In Uni where all my friends were anxious about job hunting, I want to get married. I always choose 21 years old whenever acquaintances/elder asked when is my marriage target. Don't even start with my friends, if somebody asked or joked "who's the first person to get married?" the definite answer always "Riri laaah!"

Now that I'm 25 years old and proudly single, I'd watched lots of my dearest friends getting married before me. I promised myself to always be there to witness the most important days in my friends life no matter how busy I am (early flight, 12 hours train ride or 6 hours driving: checked!). The closer I am with the Bride/ Groom the more tears I have on my eyes during Akad. Never once I had jealousy or hatred watching my friend(s) pronounced husband and wife. The thought of my friends happiness on that day forward always choked me up. Oh no, I am starting to tears up right now😂

The point is, I cannot believed for someone who longing to get married for years could have that pure happiness whenever I witnessed my friends wedding/ heard any good news related to my friends love life progress. Sometimes my heart hurts whenever I saw my parents faded face when I told them another wedding news. Especially when it comes from those who were single while I'm taken. How I wish my parent feel the same way as I am becuase everyone has their own time and mine is yet to come.

Get back to my first question "why?". I believe that God keep me in wait because:
1. He knows that my faith in marriage would never fade.
2. He has been keeping the right person (that He choose specially for me) secretly to make sure that I will meet him at the right time according to His plan.
3. He want me to enjoy my life to the fullest before I settle down.

Yes, His plan would never go wrong.

I believe because He has given me life more than I deserved.

Alhamdulillah..

Trending Now: Celeb's Oleh-oleh Cake

Snowcake: Choco Banana Latest celebrity trend in Indonesia right now: Selling cakes! Not particularly a bakery with choices of cake or dessert, they sell cake as hand gift (or what we called it oleh-oleh ) in city across Indonesia. Since the trend has spread quickly among celeb, no wonder public interest begin to arise. Tons of backlash are swarming on the internet while some people left a supportive opinion. One said these celebs are diminishing local producers market, the other said they only selling fame instead of quality. But I think what these celebs is trying to do is very positive and inspiring, rather than spending their money for the bad things they choose to collaborate and making people's tummy very happy (especially mine😜) Strudel Malang: Apple As an avid instagramers, my explore is full of endorsement for these cakes and somehow I ended up bought some 😜 (Strudel Malang by Teuku Wisnu and Snowcake by Zaskia Sungkar).

After a nice treadmills (first time since forever!!) and completely sweaty here and there, I casually hop onto a scales at my gym... and.... 56 kilosss!!!!!!! WHATTTTTTTTT My last weighing was last month, before the fun-tastic holiday marathon (I'll share it later😉) and I'm pretty sure it was 53! fifty three everyonee! with 5 and 3, not 5 and 6 💔 For 25 years my most heavy was 53 and I've been struggling to maintain it throughout 2017 (not even bother to diet since it is soooo dificult to resist all the tempting snacks at my office!

Nope. it's fine (#cryariver) Well, I might be devastated with the fact that I'm heavier (on a scale). But what bothers me a lot is, I can't control my appetite!! Chips...
