Let Her Go

Langsung jatuh cinta ketika pertama kali mendengar lagu ini. Bahkan sampai sekarang, tiada merasa bosan. Musik dan liriknya sederhana namun terasa beda di telinga, seolah ada drama di baliknya, menceritakan sesuatu yang tragis, kepasrahan demi kebahagian orang lain, Her. 

Let Her Go

Well you only need the light when it's burning low
Only miss the sun when it starts to snow
Only know you love her when you let her go

Only know you've been high when you're feeling low
Only hate the road when you’re missin' home
Only know you love her when you let her go
And you let her go

Staring at the bottom of your glass
Hoping one day you'll make a dream last
But dreams come slow and they go so fast

You see her when you close your eyes
Maybe one day you'll understand why
Everything you touch surely dies

But you only need the light when it's burning low
Only miss the sun when it starts to snow
Only know you love her when you let her go

Only know you've been high when you're feeling low
Only hate the road when you're missin' home
Only know you love her when you let her go

Staring at the ceiling in the dark
Same old empty feeling in your heart
'Cause love comes slow and it goes so fast

Well you see her when you fall asleep
But never to touch and never to keep
'Cause you loved her too much
And you dived too deep

Well you only need the light when it's burning low
Only miss the sun when it starts to snow
Only know you love her when you let her go

Only know you've been high when you're feeling low
Only hate the road when you're missin' home
Only know you love her when you let her go

And you let her go (oh, oh, ooh, oh no)
And you let her go (oh, oh, ooh, oh no)
Will you let her go?

'Cause you only need the light when it's burning low
Only miss the sun when it starts to snow
Only know you love her when you let her go

Only know you've been high when you're feeling low
Only hate the road when you're missin' home
Only know you love her when you let her go

'Cause you only need the light when it's burning low
Only miss the sun when it starts to snow
Only know you love her when you let her go

Only know you've been high when you're feeling low
Only hate the road when you're missin' home
Only know you love her when you let her go

And you let her go

Kadang kita tidak bisa memahami dan mengambil hikmah dari suatu kejadian. Mengacuhkan yang dekat dan merindukan yang jauh. Saat yang dekat menjauh, baru terdasar betapa sangat berartinya yang dekat tersebut.

Menikmati segala yang dimiliki dan dialami. Mensyukuri takdir yang dianugerahkan.

Bahagia atau tidak itu dilihat dari nyaman atau tidaknya seseorang terhadap sesuatu. Tentu saja ini sangat relatif. Masing-masing orang memiliki parameter tersendiri. Bagiku, bahagia adalah saat merasa nyaman, nyaman di rumah, nyaman di kantor, nyaman di lingkungan sekitar dll.

Ketika melalui kebersamaan di rumah, semuanya berjalan dengan baik dan lancar, maka perasaan nyaman akan selalu muncul, bahagia datang.

Ketika di kantor bersama tim yang kompak, tanpa ada tekanan dari sekitar (atas, bawah, kanan, kiri) sehingga kinerja meningkat, maka perasaan nyaman juga akan muncul, bahagia datang.

Ketika orangtua, saudara, teman, tetangga dalam keadaan baik dan sehat serta menempatkan kita dengan istimewa (dengan semetinya), perasaan nyaman lagi-lagi juga muncul, bahagia datang.

Jangan sampai merasakan bahagia ketika momen itu sudah terlewati. Mencoba berpikir lebih peka, merasakan sesuatu yang membuat nyaman dan langsung menyimpulkan bahwa itu sangat membahagiakan. Rasanya jelas beda. Merasakan bahagia saat itu juga, atau merasakan saat suatu momen terlewati dan berpikir "ah..sebenarnya saat itu aku sangat nyaman dan bahagia".

Entahlah...
