Smack in the middle of Maui’s tourist district, there exists a beautiful beach that is usually swarmed by wedding photographers for its foreground rocks laid in plaids against picturesque backdrops. When Rishabh and I got there after grappling our way through Maui’s dusk traffic, western clouds were recriminating the sunless orange horizon with their dark violets. The sea was up, the surf was not. The low tide rode the peachy sand beach in psychedelia – back and forth, and back and forth, and back and forth. Following the child-like water-line that didn't know how to stay still, Rishabh cyclically chased and ran away from the sea. Seeing him engrossed in the moment wrapped in his boyhood innocence gave me a sense of stolen time – moment after moment after moment. As the mild wind – perhaps laden with Ayahuasca – weaved tenderly through my nostrils and my sense of now, I came to realize that certain places at certain times have an inherent ability to exemplify life at its fullest.
