I was told that Great Ocean Road has one the most scenic
coastal drives, and the most recommended way to explore is none other than
car. So when Neil suggested to do a roadtrip together, I knew exactly where I
wanted to go.
So we embarked on a roadtrip, hit the highway and off to the
outskirt, passed through the mountain rainforest and rugged cliffs. It was quite
a winding road with narrow curves and bends, especially nearing the mountain
forest. But I was so occupied and ecstatic by all the scenic landscape and
coastline that I didn’t feel a slight car sick at all! Most of the time my eyes
were glued on the windscreen looking out for trees, mosses, ferns, little
creatures and anything in between, hah!
Though the sun is blazing, the temperature was chilly and
the wind was gusty. Even with my snow jacket on, I was freezing my butt off. But
the clear skyline make up for it, by capturing the glowing sky. From the
top, I was bowled over by the panorama view. I stared in such awe, ohh-ing and
ahh-ing at the sunset. The most pictrueque time of the day I must say! I
remembered telling Neil that, it was so amazingly beautiful that I can
literally die there!

Then I walked down to the beach. I stood in the middle,
listened to the crashing waves washing in and out. I wiggled the sandy grains
with my toes, and quickly put on my shoes after that. It was wet and cold. As I
looked up, I saw the limestone and tiny human figure silhouetted against the
setting sun. It was breathtaking, stunning and...precious. As I write this, I am
relishing that moment in time. Such bliss.
I was humbled by the nature, by God. Never I felt such
contentment and joy. It is true that the world gives us things to enjoy life,
but God gives us life to enjoy things.
Praise God, my cup is overflow of God’s blessings and
goodness.
