2020 was the hardest year of my life, starting by the loss of my mother, followed by a divorce in my marriage. I felt trapped in darkness and despair until I’ve decided to go to Hong Kong and I hoped to rediscover my lost self. Upon arriving in Hong Kong, the new atmosphere gave me a glimmer of hope. In between of my busy life as a domestic helper, I was determined to rise up again and find positive activities like taking various classes that would broaden my insight. My efforts have paid off; I have overcome my sadness and have found my zest for life again. My photography has attracted a wide audience, and I have the opportunity to participate in my first art exhibition during Indonesia Week in Hong Kong. This journey taught me that sadness can be a stepping stone to awakening. Now, I am stronger than before and ready to face new challenges with an unwavering spirit.
