They say children are the greatest teachers of all … To some of you it may sound a little bit strange. To me the lesson I learned in Uluwatu Temple from a young Balinese boy while watching the Kekac Dance made me think twice about its meaning.<\/p>\n

Lesson learned …<\/h3>\n

Uluwatu Temple is one of the most magical places I had ever been. Bali\u2019s oldest temple during the sunset holds something magical. The little boy\u00a0was surrounded by all these far much older Balinese men who sang along. He\u00a0sat next to his dad singing along “Cak! Cak! Cak! Cak!”. <\/em>I was not that far away from where he sat and I watched him closely. He uttered no words into my ears, but his face sang a song of truthfulness. Belonging and believing. Love and respect for the Balinese past and ancestors altogether.\u00a0I’m just a holiday photographer, yet I hope I captured something of this little boy’s truth in my pictures.<\/p>\n
