My recent visit to Sydney , Australia took me back to my local beach called Maroubra Beach which i hadn't visited for quite awhile it use to be our favorite beach from the school days. It's located in Eastern Suburbs of Sydney and my mom's home and our school was near by so after school we always go catch some waves on them hot summer days or dive or jump of some of them rock cliffs.

This was a very popular beach amongst the surfing group and still is we use to call them ' Wax Heads ' in the school days but my reason was not only to go there for a swim and look at the views which were amazing and still are i use to love going for a wonder walking along the cliff sides looking at all the different rock formations i had a fascination about rocks and cliff edges.

Watching that sea water , sea salts , rain and heavy winds constantly pounding against them cliff faces tells you a lot how theses cliffs faces and rocks end up with all these fascinating shapes and grooves it's like them going through a rock grinding machine and broken down to pieces of rock called the erosion process over many years.

They certainly turn out to be some pretty amazing masterpieces of art , that mother nature definitely puts a lot of work and years into forming these fascinating masterpiece formations something you want to take a piece of and hang in your lounge room.

You know i can go on about all the Scientifics of National Geographic how the blowing of millions of years all these sharps are formed by what we can call a sandblasting effect over millions of years but it all comes down to appreciating the beautiful scenery that mother nature ends up giving us and you just got to look around you to see that.

I will leave you with this " I myself crave a love so deep for the cliffs and the rocks that the ocean would be jealous of me."
