raystown. a fall getaway.



fall's by far the best season of the year and thanks to it, i had one of the most relaxing getaways since coming to state college. nature must have one of the best artistic flairs i've seen with its perfect colour combinations and textures, the weather's chill, cold enough to keep one excited about winter yet retaining the smell of summer nostalgically, as though reluctant to say its last goodbye. perhaps in an awareness that this season will end all too soon, i fall in love with its beauty all the more. and as all photos seek to do, these freeze-frames a temporal beauty in a temporal space and time.







and at the same juncture, i realised temporality lies in the eyes of the beholder.the hills, the trees, the lake--clearly older than my existence, yet perceived too minutely in my myopic perception of time.

and then my eyes finally saw what drew me to these picturesque sights. the knowledge that these tiny eyes (pun intended:D) can see and understand what her mighty creator can do.

psalms 121 overwhelms my thoughts.

1 I lift up my eyes to the hills—
where does my help come from?

2 My help comes from the LORD,
the Maker of heaven and earth.

3 He will not let your foot slip—
he who watches over you will not slumber;

4 indeed, he who watches over Israel
will neither slumber nor sleep.

5 The LORD watches over you—
the LORD is your shade at your right hand;

6 the sun will not harm you by day,
nor the moon by night.

7 The LORD will keep you from all harm—
he will watch over your life;

8 the LORD will watch over your coming and going
both now and forevermore.

:)



so dont blame me for wanting to embrace fall, its beauty, benefits, but most importantly as a gift from God, like literally:D

Mr perfect/miss imperfect

Instead of waiting for the perfect one, work at being the perfect one instead. These words roll off the tongue with ease like a familiar jingle. Yet the former holds an appeal tt the latter can never achieve.could it be, that at the end of the day, we are, in fact, more aware of reality than we realise? The former, perhaps, more achievable than the latter?

pro-cras-in-a-tion.

one of those moments when i get distracted from the task at hand, oh the joys of the internet. i dont know what catches my eye more, the light, the subtle suggestions of melting shadows, or an unadulterated expression of love, that comfortable lingering silence in company?

the ego of man

so this caught my eye from the red center during studios today. The question of religion and God certainly never fails to draw the crowds: from a question of God's existence, one is defined.yet through it, I'm amazed yet again of how self absorbed humans can be. In our pursuit to find out who we are, theists, atheists, or nihilists, we got the order so wrong. For is the conclusion to this question even one tt is up to our disgression, or should it be that whoever we claim to be is inconsequential, for the question is really an answer that has to be accepted nonetheless..?
