Life is beautiful if you want it to be.

It is inevitable that one feels like his/her world is falling apart, desperate for someone to come by to offer his helping hand. but i realised one very real fact, after so many years (19 to be exact) of experience in this beautiful and majestic earth created by God our father.

Many a time we fail to see how beautiful our surroundings and circumstances can be - resulting in this crazy phenomenon commonly known as self-pity. In my opinion, it's probably an apparent characteristic of what we normally call "self-centredness", something im so guilty of.

As I look across my barrack every morning, I see this beautiful snow-capped mountain, something like the ones u see in postcards. What struck me the most is: no matter what happens in the world, (like the tsunami incident a few days back), that beautiful feature made by God remains a marvelous sight.

Now, we all know we're God's creation and we're fearfully and beautifully made.

Can we actually preserve this God-given beauty in each of us?
