Hello,
Well, it's been a while since I last updated my blog. I don't even know if anyone is still reading it. A lot has happened recently, and I've been so busy preparing to move on to a mature stage of life--adulthood.
But I've been thinking, lately, of beautiful things. The news media and the world seem to portray an unbalanced picture heavily focused on the negative. This might, erroneously, lead one to think that there is not as much positive out there as there used to be. But there is! I've decided to remember that, and perhaps remind you.
Some things are beautiful because they are visually gorgeous. Others please any one of the other five senses or whatnot. Actually, I think beauty is determined by Yahweh. Anything pure and pleasing to Him is beautiful, including you and me! So I've listed a few beautiful things here, whether because they are silly or because they are pretty, in the end, I really listed them because they struck a chord in my spirit and reminded me how active Yahweh is in the world today through the simple, beautiful things.
1. Fireworks
2. Butterflies
3. Puppies
4. The Israeli cottage cheese boycott--the most searched thing on Yahoo!--and how it actually worked.
5. Air conditioning
6. Dogs having garlic breath after eating garlic butter and the fact that this is an improvement on the smell of their normal breath.
7. Scrappy, my new dog, having a purple tongue after sharing a grape popsicle with me.
8. A cool breeze on a Summer evening.
9. The water dance of a baby Hippo.
10. An iceberg blocking the harbor of a town.
And now for some pictures!
