Wishing like it was the first time

[Bahasa Indonesia]
I was sitting still watching the kecak dance that night. I watched my new non-Indonesian friends watching it in awe. It was their first time seeing the dance. Not for me. I have lost count on how many times I have seen the dance.

I wish it was my first time though. I wish I can feel that same awe as those who saw it for the first time.

Just like a child who sees everything for the first time and spontaneously and animatedly got all hyped up about it.

Would it not be great to have such child-like enthusiasm?
