Florida: Warmth, Please?

A mountain is composed of tiny grains of earth.
The ocean is made up of tiny drops of water.
Even so, life is but an endless series
of little details, actions, speeches, and thoughts..
And the consequences, whether good or bad,
of even the least of them are far-reaching.

ahh, feels like i haven't posted in forever and a day :\ well, i asked my dad for his extra CF card reader to just use around the house, so at least i can upload photos for now :). anyways, almost right after my exams, we set out for Florida! and here's a collection of pictures to sum up our journey!..


at our awesome airport... then straight to Orlando!




of course i had to take a picture of at least one random plant :P ..although i didn't take out my telephoto lens this time :(. anyways, we went to Universal Studios first, but i'll post those pictures another day :). moving along, to Cocoa Beach!


..had to take a picture of our shadows :P. and did i mention we saw one of those huge birds? you know, the kind of bird whose name is yet to be known to me :\ loll. pretty cool that it didn't fly away when i kept stepping a bit closer :).



yes, it was also quite chilly in Florida when we were there.. strange, eh? and to think I missed having snow on Christmas day and it was still cold! >:( this weird weather needs to stop :(.


clearly, photographers of the fam = my dad and i :) ..although he won't let me use his camera for an extended period of time :(. but it's alright. one day, i'll finally get a job and be able to buy myself a new lens and body (y). but for now, this one works, and takes pretty awesome sunset photos too :)!

doesn't nature just leave you in awe sometimes? ♥.

Oh How He Loves Us So.

I am sure all of heaven’s heard me cry
As I tell You all the reasons why this life is just too hard.
But day by day, without fail I’m finding everything I need
In everything that You are to me.

it's so hard to remember what's important sometimes in this crazy, hectic life. and it's so, so hard to remember that we're not in it alone - at least that's how it is for me. there's times where everything just seems so unfair. so ridiculous. but then, there's those random moments that just freeze time - those moments where all the things that i have to be thankful for come rushing at me. those moments that just make me feel so alive.

i was having my own praise and power time in my room today - not with instruments or live music or anything - just myself and the radio, not that it matters because it was all the same amazing. well, just as i was about to go back to studying, i read an email about someone now in the hospital in critical condition. it's not like i was super close to him or anything, but i just had one of those moments - like God was right there, showing me all that i was, and am, blessed to have. and that he's always been there for me, in whatever i did and wherever i was. oh, how He loves us so.

----
Every time I breathe, You seem a little bit closer
I never wanna leave, I wanna stay in Your warm embrace.
Oh, basking in the glory shining from Your face and
Every time I get another glimpse of Your heart,
I realize it’s true, that You are so marvelous God,
And I am so in love with You.
Yeah, so in love with You.

You are marvelous God and knowing You is everything.
i'm forever indebted to You for all that i have.
please surround and give strength to their family, God.
