Post 19

I went to Lake Bonny Park for this assignment, and I stayed there for at least 40 minutes.

Like stated in my previous post, I believe that there is something truly divine about nature…especially when reflecting on the Lord. Nature helps bring us down to Earth, clears our minds and puts things in perspective.

On Monday, I went to Lake Bonny Park with Lauren, Juliet and Brendan. We found the dock featured in a picture on the blog. We took time to look at the water and all the creatures around it. I remember seeing these lizards everywhere on the dock. It is just crazy to think about how many things exist outside of ourselves. And it is also crazy to think about our earth and God’s creation and how creative he is in making it.

One of my favorite parts of the trip was when the four of us took time to relax and reflect on the dock. We laid with the comfort of the sun on our faces and the soft breeze to cool us down. In the distance I could hear laughter. I could hear the wind. I could hear the brushing of the leaves. And it is weird how those simple things can affect one’s perspective and appreciation of nature.
