WOW! WOW!! WOW!! When I saw the photo of this T-Rex shaped Kelingking Beach for the first time in my life, that’s what came out of my mouth. I decided at that very moment that I have to go there.
WOW! WOW!! WOW!! WOW! WOW!! WOW!!
That’s what came out of my mouth when I finally went there! It was more beautiful than the photo I saw.
I was on the top of the cliff. The green ocean was thumping into the T-Rex. The carpet of green was kissing the T-Rex deeply. On its feet, a stretch of golden sand beach was inviting like a magician hypnotises it’s audience. I rubbed my eyes a couple of times – maybe I was daydreaming. Oh wait, I saw just two big manta rays swimming under the sea. The water was so crisp, I could see them from so far away. And, that wind, that purest, refreshing wind.
I could see some large ants on the beach. They were moving with the gentle breeze. Wait, they are not ants, they are humans! How on earth they reached there?
I read somewhere about the stairways to heaven. I found a stairway there, too. It was made of mud, supported by the bamboo. Instead of going up towards heaven, it was going down. So was I – following the souls on the beach. Like a magnet attracts iron, the ocean was attracting me.
The more I was going down, the more I was losing myself. Where should I look? To the top or to the bottom?
I was perplexed, I was happy; I was over the moon smelling the ocean, touching the wind, living the moment.
