there are countless things on this earth which ours minds interpret to be beautiful.
but i personally believe even more that those which are in their natural state exude something more than that of beauty.
dont get me wrong, man has created indefinite numbers of beauty AND at times even help us see natural beauty in a more luminous light ..
take this petty example..
man created this beautiful tank and the song to go along..
although the image and the words dont go hand in hand, it somehow does go hand in hand;
stirring about intense emotions in us and bringing us to a whole new level of high.
who would of thought a still frame could encompass such power.
everything about it, is just naturally beautiful.
oh man.. i think i over exaggerated, but it is what it is.

cali is blazing.
ON FIRE..
im at a far enough distance from the la canada fire;
located on the other side of this huge mountain..
but that mountain isnt stoppng anyting from comning this way..
and the wind isnt helping either.
all the windows are shut but still the stench is pretty strong.
its gross outside, doesnt look safe at all..
its some weird orange color, its smoggy/dark and i believe there are ashes all over my car.
i pray it goes away soon.

RIP Soldier.
"shocked!"
just a few weeks before school ended my econ teacher offered us 50 points extra credit.
with such an offer i jumped on it right away; all we had to do was buy an acceptable goodie and write a letter to one of the math teachers brothers who was heading for iraq.
i thought "wow 50 points extra credit? with no work at all? and it benefits those fighting for us?! right on!"
i wrote the letter with ease, thanking him and telling him he would be in my prayers.
little did i know.... thats all i could say, little did i know
just today while in the bathroom ^_^ (sorry) i was reading the newspaper and i happen to turn it around..
there it was... a soldier was killed by a roadside bombing
not anything unusual or unccommon now a days..
but this one caught my eye... his name sounded familiar, he was from glendale, and as i continued on, i saw the teachers name who taught at my school.
i was in complete shock.. all i could say was "wow, out of all the soldiers.. it happen to be the one i wrote to.."
this just showed me how fragile life is .. and just like i said in my letter..
"thank you for fighting for our country, you will always be in my prayers."
