Life with
Aim
Life could be a mystery to
everyone. How the people live their life with their beliefs? Life with aim
leads us to better and healthier environment. There were a lot of
people that lived with their fantasy - Money, power or well-being, living were
the reason of our life? There was a girl decided to believe not to listen to
kibitzer and iconoclastic belief in this modernist if the success was the real
reason of life. A smell of the nature, making her daymare to
stop the illusion and went to reality. Live with all the modernist and
technology brings both hope and greed. Ara was different from the other
girl in her village. She was smart, beautiful and has a
passion towards education and nature knowledge. She always dresses herself
with manner and latest trend. Not one day ended without the start of few new
sheet of paper for her. She had the strong-willed to be a successful person no
matter whatever how long or anything it took. She had an apple of her
eyes that match in heaven. She and Daniel had been an item
that has the hots. Their shared passion and loved to do
everything together. Till they finally decided to go to study in the same
university. One day she asked her Mom something important that may change her
life entirely.
“Mom, allow me to go to
university. I do not want to stay here doing nothing but like other girl does
in the village. I need to change my view to see the real world is.” Ara
said daringly to her mum who never allowed girl from her family to
further studies in other places than their village.
“But Ara, you are the first in this village to do so. I do not like it to be
like that. You will be staying here until Mom and Dad find a suitable man
for you.” Her mom broke her heart like an unrepairable porcelain vase.
Ara cried inside and fake a
smile to her Mom showing that she agreed with her Mom’s final knot. Deep inside
of herself there was a greater rebellion which making her to make her own
decision. After the conversation ended with disappointed words that she had
known will be happened, she went to the room. Preparing all her clothes and
crucial things to be take care of before she run without her family’s
knowing. Ara had an older sister, Kathleen and a
brother, Chris, whom free to go and do anything he wanted. Inversely to
Kathleen, she had no freedom to dream high and even fly like a free bird. Mom
and Dad had negative and superstition thinking that girls never had to have
higher education - Girls only meant to be “slave” for her husband and family.
Ara hated that kind of thinking, it had ruined the life of a girl. For
her, educating a girl gave world a better place to live. “I must do
this! If I want to success, something it needs to against the rules.”
She made up her mind with her full heart.
“Kathleen, call your sister! Dinner is ready.” Mum shouted while
preparing the dishes with last touch after it was ready to be eaten.
“Ara, come outside now. It's dinner time.”
“Okay, Kat. I will be there.” She hid her things in the cupboard and hurried to
the dining room before someone saw her.
Then, they finished their dinner without having a family
conversation at the table. It was weird as Mom will
always tell her funny stories to us every time we dine. Ara knew the
reason of all the silence. She remembered her conversation with her Mom
earlier. Now, Mom looked very fierce and there was an unusual look from
her.
New life, new atmosphere and new peoples. Here she freed from everything where
anyone can be anything. Now, she out of her village and came to the city to
pursue higher education that she wanted all the time. She never thought to be
so free and alive with somebody she loved the most - Daniel. “Daniel, I
really feel so relieved to come here with you. I want to, my Mom to
be more open-minded and realize she has made the wrong decision by putting me
in this situation. I love Mom so much that I could not bear to see
her becoming disappointed with my doing right now. Maybe one day she
will be realized, she need to lend her girl to be well-educated”.
Before tears began to drop in Ara’s face, Daniel quickly wiped her
tears using silk handkerchief and gave a warm hug to make she felt
comfortable. “Yes, Ara. Maybe someday. But now lets us enjoy our life
here until the last breath holds us.” Daniel always there for Ara through
hard and bitter.
“Thank you, love. I will.”
Ara fell in love with Daniel at the first sight when looking at
Daniel was trying to save some unfortunate girls from being raped by the
alcoholic irresponsible men. That day, Ara knew she had found the
missing pieces that lost in her un-complete life.
“I wondered what is Mom doing right now?”
The moment stopped for a while
as they sat on the rock inside the Forest of Dean, Symonds Yat and saw
spectacular views across the River Wye and the
forest beyond. The colours of the forest, flowers and
rivers were made the place look colourful and great to visit in
Summer. The golden colour of the forest made she felt more alive and
better appreciation towards natural flora and fauna that she loved to
explore a lot. No place looked sweeter than the uncountable Daniel’s
love to Ara since the day he was madly in love with her. Life was sweeter than
even the natural sugar. Their love began to live more and deeper every day. No
one can stop their love till death separated and broke their promises and vows.
