Right when I got to Big Sur, it was evident of God’s presence in nature. The redwood trees are far beyond anything human minds can fathom.

The beauty within sight is just unreal. When you come in contact with the trees, their smell is just unreal.

It is a sweet yet rustic smell that overtakes your senses when you take it in. Not only are the trees filled with wonder, but the clifftops are more beauty than I can handle.

As I stood alongside the majestic rocks along the water, I looked out and could not see an end. It is a strange feeling to feel so overwhelmed by the power of the water, yet so at peace at the pure beauty in the colors.
