I NEVER EXPIRE CAMPAIGN by SK-II #changedestiny

Hi! I'm 22 years old and just want to share some of my thoughts about I Never Expire film.
This short film (in 2:52 minutes duration) is a campaign from one of woman skincare brand, SK-II. For more details about this SK-II's campaign, please check this and watch the film here. 

So, here are my thoughts:

Do you feel woman have an expiry date?
Of course not. If it is about age, then there is no such age limits on women to keep shining, even if they're above 30. To me, as long as she is happy and passionate in life, that's all that matters. 

After watching The Expiry Date film, What comes to your mind? What are some of your thoughts?
I believe that everyone has their own destiny, so does the time and the process that goes along with it. 

In my opinion in this case, women have no age limits to reach their dream, to decide their purpose of life, to do what they love, to get married, or to continue study. Women probably have what they called "biological clock", which mean that female reproductive organs have a fertile period. But it sounds disrespectful when people try to label women with the "expiry date" phrase. Expiry date is to mention goods or foods product which has the date of consumption limit and will become a useless when it gets expired. Women is exactly not those kind of things that will get expired and become a useless. Women is also human being who has life and the right to live life to the fullest. And life is more than something that we can measure only by ages or worse--expiry date labels. 

Was there a time in your life that you felt pressured by aging or felt pressured by society's norms?
I may not a 30 year old or nearly, so I haven't met that kind of age pressures experience. But I believe age pressures do exist and I realize,  sometimes society put an "age-secure-level" on someone; Ideal age to get married, ideal age to have a baby, ideal age to have second child, and so on. I was afraid when I turned 20 because I could probably experience a similar pressure from people around (I hope not :D). But I personally believe, every moment has its own time and I just have to go through the process.

Seperti Apa Rupa Cinta

Seperti apa rupa cinta? Kau kemudian menyinggung tentang rumahmu di kampung halaman, tempat segala sesuatu berawal. Kau menceritakan bagaimana seorang bayi memulai kehidupan dari gendongan Ibunya hingga Ia beranjak pergi menghadapi sendiri dunia nyata.   Lalu apakah cinta adalah sepasang tangan yang menimangmu di hari pertama kau datang ke dunia dan merawatmu hingga hari ini kau berada? Kau meninggalkan rumah dan pergi mencari jawaban ke kota-kota besar, mulai berkenalan dengan segala kesibukan dan kesenangan yang membuatmu jarang pulang.  Sesekali kau memberi kabar singkat Ibumu dan menerima doa-doa baik sebagai jawaban.  Di lain waktu, kesempatan membawamu ke tempat yang lebih tinggi. Kau bisa menikmati segala indah dan gemerlap yang ada di bawah sana, lebih luas dari yang sebelumnya bisa kau jangkau. Kini, jangankan pulang, kabarmu seringkali hanya menjadi kemungkinan belaka. Dalam perjalanan hidup, tahun-tahun berlalu semakin membentuk matang dirimu.  Kau me...

Precipice

Of all days in August Of all the random talks Of all the time we spent amidst your busy schedule Of all the unspoken words during our lunch together Of all the unsent messages of  "how was your day?" Going deeper into the detached connection and affection,  the missing  profound and meaningful conversation, the endless emptiness and pain, and every hug and touch that should've felt like coming home Now, for  the thousand times, still leaves me wondering  if every relationship has its own precipice, what kind of precipice is manifesting ours? Kelapa Gading, 4th September 2023 When August slipped away into a moment in time and you weren't mine to lose

2:1

Betapa aneh ingatan itu tiba-tiba ia memantik kenangan  di masa lalu. Sudah lama bukan,  waktu kita saling berbagi hari? Waktu kumulai pagiku  dengan menyeduhkanmu kopi; rutinitas yang bukan hanya kuhapal dalam kepala tapi juga dalam hati. Selalu dua banding satu,  takaran kopi dan gulamu.  Selalu bertambah satu,  beban ingatanku melupakanmu.  Jakarta, 3 September
