Some journeys begin with a calling—not always loud or clear, but gentle, like a nudge on the shoulder. Over time, I’ve come to believe that it is in that quiet invitation from above that we often find our truest path.

This space was born out of reflection. A kind of personal altar where I place moments—small, sacred, and sometimes unseen. The milestones, yes, but also the prayers whispered between tasks, the doubts wrestled with in silence, and the joy of witnessing how grace unfolds through learning.

Education, for me, has never been merely about information. It is, at its core, an act of love. A way of honoring the dignity of the human person, each one created imago Dei—in the image of God. This belief has guided me across various disciplines: business, social sciences, education, and law. Not for prestige, but to understand how we might serve better. Think clearer. Love deeper.

Over the years, I’ve walked alongside students from different walks of life, and in every encounter, I’ve seen glimpses of the Divine: in their resilience, in their questions, in their growth. Teaching has become more than a profession—it has become a vocation. A small offering in the vineyard of education.

Through PT Scala Cita Indonesia and its branches—ScalaEdu, ScalaLex, and ScalaPix—I hope to echo that same spirit of service. To be a companion in the pursuit of truth, justice, and creativity. None of this, I believe, is by accident. Each step has been sustained by grace, and I can only hope that this work—imperfect as it may be—can bear even a little fruit for the greater good.

This space is a quiet space for sharing. A place where academic writing meets everyday reflections, and where thought and faith can sit side by side—like friends in conversation. It’s not here to impress, but to accompany. If anything you read here feels familiar to your own journey, then perhaps we are already walking together, under the same Light.

And if not, that’s okay too. Maybe this is simply a resting place—a small bench in the middle of the road—where we both pause, breathe, and remember that we are never truly alone.
