Dead Trees

Dead trees in the terraces of Mammoth Hot Springs, Yellowstone National Park, Wyoming, USA. These trees grew during inactivity of the mineral-rich springs, and were killed when calcium carbonate carried by spring water clogged the vascular systems of the trees. The same process also effectively preserves the trees by preventing decay.

Today's Wish

You are reaching for the stars that are billion miles away,

And catch the brightest moon and its overnight grey.

Never minding the cold that feels your skin

You are but just a dreamer that speaks from within.

A courage that is beyond your biggest doubt,

Runs through your vein and leads your heart.

Celebrating each day for a well done fight

The road is long but your feet keep its stride.

You aim for that life somewhere from tomorrow,

Eyes are all set just for one goal.

Your life is in your hand and cannot be shaken

As you master the art of winning.

Far behind you someone else is wishing…

Not for pots of gold or silver lining.

The world offers a dream to never ending…

But I yearn for nothing than to walk under the rain

Get my feet soak and this longing washed away.

Then sunshine…

You are the treasure at the end of my rainbow.

Life is Good. Always has been. :)

I would say this is so far my most favorite captured photo since I started my passion for photography. What an awesome God we have that He created a world as beautiful as this.  :)

It is absolutely a sight to behold.

Another year is coming into past, and life goes on. :) This is one of those days where I wish I would wake up to the smell of my mom’s cooking and have all of my siblings all together at one place. I miss my family :)

At this point in my life, I think I am in the right place at the right time in the right circumstances. I got direction in my life, Yay!!! Lol

Having walked to a life – where all the members of my family are safe and healthy – where I get to do what I love doing most, NURSING :) – where I lived in a house that is literally full of Noise, Laughter and Fun – where I get to travel and experience the wonders of His power –where I get to capture a moment and put it in stillness – where I get to wake up each day and experience all these over and over again. This is ultimate bliss =D

I may have lost a few people in my journey, but we are all just passing through each other’s world. And the lessons learned are greatly appreciated. :)

On the other hand, we meet new people… And the story begins =p

To everyone who crossed my world, thank you.

To everyone who chose to stay, regret is always at the end. Lol

And as this photo conveys, the world is amazing. So is my life. Always has been. Cheers. =p

All Glory to HIM :)

Grand Teton National Park

In beautiful Wyoming you will find the breathtaking Grand Teton National Park, which features the 46 mile long Grand Teton mountain range. Grand Teton National Park is just 10 miles (16 km) south of Yellowstone National Park, and a visit to one should include a visit to the other. The park is named for Grand Teton mountain, the tallest mountain in the park at 13,775 feet (4,199 m). Grand Teton National Park has a rich history of Paleo-Indian and Native American settlements, dating to over 11,000 years ago. The park also has fascinating geography, with glaciated mountains, lakes, and valleys creating a unsurpassed landscape of beauty.

After A While

AFTER A WHILE YOU LEARN

THE SUBTLE DIFFERENCE BETWEEN

HOLDING A HAND AND CHAINING A SOUL

AND YOU LEARN THAT LOVE DOESN’T MEAN LEANING


AND COMPANY DOESN’T ALWAYS MEAN SECURITY.

AND YOU BEGIN TO LEARN

THAT KISSES AREN’T CONTRACTS


AND PRESENTS AREN’T PROMISES

AND YOU BEGIN TO ACCEPT YOUR DEFEATS

WITH YOUR HEAD UP AND YOUR EYES AHEAD

WITH THE GRACE OF A WOMAN

NOT THE GRIEF OF A CHILD


AND YOU LEARN

TO BUILD ALL YOUR ROADS ON TODAY

BECAUSE TOMORROW’S GROUND IS

TOO UNCERTAIN FOR PLANS

AND FUTURES HAVE A WAY

OF FALLING DOWN IN MID FLIGHT

AFTER A WHILE YOU LEARN

THAT EVEN SUNSHINE BURNS IF YOU GET TOO MUCH

SO YOU PLANT YOUR OWN GARDEN

AND DECORATE YOUR OWN SOUL

INSTEAD OF WAITING

FOR SOMEONE TO BRING YOU FLOWERS


AND YOU LEARN

THAT YOU REALLY CAN ENDURE

THAT YOU ARE REALLY STRONG

AND YOU REALLY DO HAVE WORTH

AND YOU LEARN AND YOU LEARN

WITH EVERY GOODBYE YOU LEARN.

Amazed

Today...

I have seen the wonders of nature in all its glory.

I have pondered to some thoughts that relax me.

I have slept into a few dreams that left a smile on my face.

Driven to so many roads that left me in awe.

The gift of existence stood in front of me.

As the cold breeze touches my face,

The beauty of the world amazes me,

But not as much as you do :)
