The scent of clove cigarettes and jasmine incense hung heavy in the air, a constant backdrop to my childhood in the late 80s Indonesia. Back then, our small village sprawled under a canopy of stars so vast, it felt like they spilled over the horizon. Every night, nestled on a woven mat on the porch, I’d devour dog-eared books about ancient civilizations and faraway galaxies.
Indiana Jones wasn’t just a movie character; he was my idol. I dreamt of unearthing forgotten temples, deciphering cryptic hieroglyphs, and piecing together the whispers of the past like a grand archaeologist. But then I’d look up at the Milky Way, a shimmering river of stars defying comprehension, and a different kind of explorer ignited within me – the astrophysicist.
The universe, an enigma whispered in hushed tones by my science teacher, Pak Budi, held an allure that transcended anything on Earth. Black holes, pulsars, the very fabric of space-time itself – these were the mysteries I craved to unravel.
One day, perched on the roof, tracing constellations with my finger, a shooting star streaked across the inky canvas. It was a fleeting, luminous message, and in that moment, I knew – my future lay amongst the stars, or perhaps beneath the soil, each path leading to a different kind of discovery. The world was a vast, uncharted territory, and I, a wide-eyed child, dreamt of being the one to map it all.
The late 80s offered little in terms of technology, but my imagination was a boundless cosmos. Cardboard boxes became spaceships, the dusty ground transformed into alien landscapes, and fireflies were bioluminescent creatures from distant planets. Every rustle of leaves in the wind whispered secrets, every sunrise a promise of new adventures.
As I look back, my childhood was a beautiful paradox – rooted in the familiar warmth of my village yet yearning to explore the furthest reaches of the unknown. The world, for me, was a treasure chest waiting to be unlocked, and the key, I believed, lay in the stars and the soil, waiting for the day I held it in my hand.

What if the size of a dream was never the point? Through a Javanese kite-maker’s parable and voices from Rumi to Marcus Aurelius, the Gita to the Dhammapada, this essay asks whether dreaming is less a destination than a form of breathing — one we must keep doing, gently, for as long as we wish to call what we’re living a life.
WHO merilis tinjauan tentang 18 senyawa PFAS prioritas yang mencemari makanan dan air minum, serta enam kategori efek kesehatan seperti kanker dan gangguan metabolik. Makanan menjadi jalur pajanan utama. Temuan ini menunjukkan perlunya Indonesia memperkuat pemantauan PFAS untuk meningkatkan keamanan pangan dan air minum.
Evaluasi terbaru oleh JECFA (2026) menunjukkan risiko arsenik dalam makanan tidak hanya terkait kanker, tetapi juga penyakit jantung pada dosis lebih rendah. Beras menjadi sumber utama paparan, termasuk di Indonesia, di mana data dari Sulawesi Utara menunjukkan melampaui ambang aman. Perlu ada langkah kehati-hatian dan pembaruan regulasi keamanan pangan.
