Share the Joy with Mother Nature
It’s time to forget the worldly parties and get reconnected back to nature. Before Christmas, we usually get busier than before for late gift shopping, preparing perfect setting, cooking perfect food, and everything. Nature, on the other hand, is just as calm as ever. Here in Komodo, nature is truly at still and peace. The islands are devoid of human mass civilisation. The savannah grassland grows and sways as the wind goes. The sun and the moon ride across the sky, painting the sky with beautiful hues of blue, purple, red, and everything in between. All we could do in this Christmas is just to stop a moment and truly lives in that moment.
