Indonesia: First Sunrise in my Hometown
November 13, 2020When I was in my hometown, I told my mom to woke me up at 4.30 am so that I could go to this place & enjoy the scenery at dawn. My mom did what I asked her to, I rode my motorbike then, only to get mesmerized by how beautiful this place was.
It's only 5-10 minutes from my home, the path is only a natural path and it was so slippery because of the dew. Maybe if it wasn't slippery I could reach this place only in 5 minutes.
The sound of birds chirping, crickets, and any other sound were loud but so peacefully healing my soul. The sun that was nowhere to be seen suddenly come out slowly from afar.
I set my phone on a branch of a eucalyptus tree near where I stand. The branch was like the branch on the video, I let my phone doing their job and I sat, inhale the smell of nature in my hometown happily.
This place was only a farm for my neighbors, the place where they trusted the earth to give birth to their plants. No one is aware that this place was this beautiful, they only know that this place was the place to make them stay alive, to survive living.
I saw a family who walked from their house to this place that dawned. A hoe on the husband's shoulder and a sickle on the wife's hand. They look at me oddly, maybe because no one ever sat and recording the sun as I did in that place, at least in their eyes.
Luckily, we were quite far from each other, although we're neighbors, we were too lazy to shout to greet because of the distance we had. We just wave our hands then back to our own business.
