Jejak Renung di Penutup tahun 2025

Tanggal terakhir di bulan Desember, aku tutup layar laptop dengan tarikan napas yang mengalun pelan. Layar ini seolah menutup satu bab dalam lembaran perjalanan selama setahun. Aku menolak berlabel ‘guru yang usang’ di tengah perlawanan yang sengit dalam melawan arus zaman.

Setiap hari aku berada di panggung Gen Z. Dengan keyakinan dan integritas yang tinggi, aku merambat peran ke ruang logika mereka yang terbalut algoritme, yang dunianya berputar secepat scroll di layar TikTok ataupun Instagram. Meskipun penat menyambar dalam varian aplikasi dan web, tercengkram kepuasan batin yang seketika menyebar dalam hati ini tatkala melihat pijar menyala terang di mata para tunas bangsa.

Di celah riuh kelas, aku luangkan waktu untuk menjalin aksara faktual maupun metaforis. Ini caraku menjernihkan atmosfir, menuangkan buah pikiran dalam tulisan pena. Beragam gelanggang kucicipi meski panggung kemenangan masih jauh di awan. Namun, kolaborasi yang apik antara tangan dan ruang nalar tetap terjaga.

Menjelang senja oufit kedinasan kutanggalkan dan siap merajut waktu dalam semesta kecilku bernama keluarga. Di sinilah denyut demi denyut dunia kuarungi. Segalanya luruh tatkala peranku berganti menjadi ‘ibu’ dan ‘istri’.

Memang ragaku ini terlihat satu, tapi dalam jiwa ini bersemayan 3 napas kehidupan. Aku, Radeva putraku dan putu Sara suamiku. Kami adalah trinitas dalam benang cinta. Satu sakit, semua merasa nyeri di dada. Satu tertawa dan ketiganya pun berbinar dengan bibir yang bebas melepaskan canda.

Aku hanya ingin jiwa dan raga semesta kecilku selalu selaras dengan tubuh yang selalu berdamai. Aku paham bahwa harta termahal dan susah dipertahankan adalah kesehatan. Saat sakit menjejaki, udara serasa pengap seketika dan detak jantung keluargaku mulai berdebar kencang.

Tatkala dewasa ayu tertanggal dalam kalender Bali, aku kembali berganti peran. Tenggelam dalam persiapan upacara dan kebaya pun menanti untuk dipakai. Ketika sanak saudara memanggilku dalam tradisi suka duka ‘menyame braye’, aku pun kembali menanggalkan seragam formalku dan hadir dalam kepedulian dan empati. Aku tetap berdiri kuat dan profesional tanpa meninggalkan akar budaya dan tradisi.

Lelah? Jawabnya tentu. Tapi itulah seni keseimbangan di mana aku menari di panggung yang berbeda dan dituntut untuk selalu totalitas sebagai wanita karir, penjaga keluarga dan pewaris tradisi.

Lembar terakhir di buku tahun 2025 aku tutup perlahan, meninggalkan deretan cerita dan kenangan. Tak terasa ada tetesan air mata jatuh tanpa kusadari. Ada halaman yang basah oleh air mata, ada halaman dengan gambaran tawa puas dan coretan naskah yang belum tuntas. Semua adalah hikmah yang sangat berharga dan guru terbaik yang tak pernah memberiku nilai di atas kertas.

Selamat datang fajar 2026. Aku siap menyambutmu dengan rasa syukur. Sehatlah ragaku, kuatlah jiwaku, bahagialah keluargaku. "Aku, Ibu dari Radeva, Istri dari Putu Sara, Guru bagi anak-anak gen Z, dan Putri bagi Pertiwi, siap menulis kisah baru. Semoga untaian kata tertulis indah di halaman buku 2026."

Text 1. Dutch and Russian Arrested for Hydroponic Marijuana Farm in Bali

DENPASAR, Bali – Police have dismantled a hydroponic marijuana farm in Bali, arresting two foreign nationals who turned a rented house in North Denpasar into a cannabis plantation. The suspects, NR (31) from the Netherlands and KV (33) from Russia, were caught outside the residence during a raid on Wednesday, October 1, 2025.

Acting on tips from residents, investigators found the property had been converted into a sophisticated indoor farm. Inside, officers discovered areas for seeding and growing cannabis equipped with irrigation systems, cooling units, temperature regulators, grow lights, and CCTV.

Dozens of cannabis plants, hundreds of seed bags, hydroponic tools, and weighing scales were seized. The foreigners admitted they had obtained the seeds from a man identified only as “C” since May 2025, though no harvest had taken place yet. Police are now tracking down the supplier and broader network.

Bali Police Narcotics Chief Commissioner Radiant said that “both suspects face charges under Indonesia’s Narcotics Law No. 35/2009, with penalties of 5–20 years in prison, life sentences, and fines up to Rp8 billion.”

Authorities stressed that the discovery of the hydroponic marijuana farm in Bali shows how drug offenders are using advanced techniques to evade detection. Police urged the public to remain vigilant and report suspicious activities, pledging to protect informants’ identities and intensify their crackdown on narcotics across the island.

Text 2. Mass Protest Erupts in Jakarta Over DPR Salary Increase

JAKARTA, August 15, 2025 – Thousands of demonstrators filled the streets surrounding the House of Representatives (DPR) building in Senayan, Jakarta, to protest against the government’s decision to increase the salaries and allowances of DPR members. The protest, which began early in the morning, disrupted traffic and drew widespread public attention across Indonesia.

Protesters from various groups, including university students, labor unions, and anti-corruption activists, voiced their anger over what they described as “insensitive and unjust” policy-making amid rising living costs. Many carried posters reading “People Struggle, Politicians Prosper” and “Use the Budget for the People, Not the Elites.”
The demonstrators argued that the salary hike showed the DPR’s lack of empathy toward citizens still struggling with inflation, job scarcity, and education costs. They also criticized the decision-making process, claiming it was carried out without sufficient public consultation or transparency.
Authorities deployed more than 2,000 police officers to secure the area and prevent potential clashes. Despite some minor tensions between protesters and police, the demonstration remained largely peaceful, ending in the late afternoon.

Jakarta Police spokesperson Commissioner Rina Prasetyo confirmed that the protest ran safely under strict supervision. She emphasized that expressing opinions in public is a constitutional right as long as it remains orderly. Meanwhile, a protest coordinator, Aditya Rahman from the People’s Voice Alliance, stated that the rally symbolized citizens’ disappointment with the government’s priorities. “We demand the DPR revoke the salary increase and focus on addressing the people’s economic hardships,” he said.

Text 2. Happiness Over Grades

Mira, a hardworking single mother, always tried her best to support her son, Ardan, who had just entered his first year of senior high school. Ardan was a bright but quiet teenager who loved drawing and dreamed of becoming an illustrator. Every evening, Mira would prepare dinner while Ardan worked on his school assignments at the kitchen table. Although busy, Mira always reminded him how proud she was of his creativity and dedication.

The semester progressed, Ardan’s grades suddenly dropped, and he became distant. He often returned home looking tired and frustrated. Mira grew worried but Ardan refused to talk, insisting he was “fine.” Shortly after, Mira discovered through his teacher that Ardan had been overwhelmed by pressure to excel in mathematics and science—subjects he struggled with but felt expected to master. Ardan feared disappointing his mother, believing she expected him to pursue a more “stable” career than art.

One evening, Mira gently sat beside Ardan and encouraged him to share what he was feeling. Ardan finally broke down and admitted his fears. Instead of being upset, Mira hugged him and assured him that his happiness mattered more than grades or expectations. She promised to support his artistic dreams and help him manage his studies without pressure. Feeling relieved, Ardan regained his motivation, balanced his schoolwork, and continued improving his art. Their bond grew stronger through honesty, understanding, and unconditional love.
