As the weeks after Camp pile up on me, i began to think and ponder the things i learned. and one thing still stuck in my mind. Every night at Eagle Fern, we had a discussion, called hot topics. One of the nights we talked about Media. Music and all that stuff that Teenage girls bury themselves in. now, i never quote from secular songs, and i definetely wouldn't copy from this song, i won't even tell you what the song is it's so againts everything God stands for. But one part of the song shot out at me. it wrenched my heart, i honestly felt like crying. it said...

Roses are red
Some diamonds are blue
Chivalry is dead
But you're still kinda cute

Chivalry.
The medieval system, principles, and customs of knighthood.
The qualities idealized by knighthood, such as bravery, courtesy, honor, and gallantry toward women.
A manifestation of any of these qualities.
A group of knights or gallant gentlemen.

Chivalry is dead. Is that true? Is it possible to step outside and find Chivalry in a man? It was really hard for me to sit there and watch this music video, with girls throwing themselves at guy's while that phrase was echoing through my mind. How sad God must've been.
The Old Testament verses are the prophecy; the New Testament verses proclaim the fulfillment. Check them all out for yourself!

i love to walk. find a path and take it just to see where it goes. behold the beauty that God has blessed me with, let it enrapture my soul so i can give to Him pure and admirable praise.

It's 1:05 a.m. I have just finished a work of art. A huge soring mountain with two dead trees before it. I am proud of it. Well, i'm not sure why i'm writing at such a time nor why i decided to complete this drawing. but i just wanted to type. God's beauty entered my mind. i just want to praise Him for the beauty He's given me. So many things. My family. My friends. My pets. My world. yes. the trees. I llove trees. They're so powerful. You can climb them and burn them for heat. You can draw them and creat a massive beauty. there is nothing like a tree. it's God's magnificant creation. It sways it breaths. It reproduces. The pine tree has a most facinating way of reproducing. there are two kinds of cones. a male and female cone. the male cone creates a sperm that eventually drops, by sudden wind movement or a shiver in the tree and the sperm then falls and hopefully lands on a female cone. if it does it finds it 's way to the center of the cone where the egg is. it fertalizes the egg than the cone falls away from the tree and thus creates another tree. Thanks God for giving ,me that pice of Information!
