A nest to record memories
A nest to share and learn
A nest to laugh and be inspired

It is simply a nest for a heart

Hiding behind the beauty, part 1



This picture was taken by my brother in law, Iman Burhanuddin. It is located between Majene - Mamuju, West Sulawesi and a famous place to enjoy the sunset. One afternoon, as I and my husband traveled along, we saw a newly wed couple stopped by for pictures, wearing their colourful, yet, complicated wedding gown! But, sometimes beauty has its secret! One day, we were going back to Makassar and our car was about an inch away from a huge wave swaying from the sea...hitting the sea barrier and the road before swept back ....And, this is also the place where Adam Air was thought to have drowned...Yes, myth and superstition are still strongly recognised by people, especially in the remote area. However, the beliefs are ultimately important to preserve the nature. People are afraid to act against nature, even cutting the trees....Hm..just as they are afraid to run over a cat....There's always something hiding behind the beauty......
