When i snapped this picture of these ducks nothing but amazement was flowing. I was thirsty to go outside of Caitlin's dorm steal this shot. I watched this duck for a while even long enough for Caitlin to get mad at me. I was just amused by this 20 foot diameter of unfrozen water where 20 or more ducks slept, swam, and survived. The whole lake was frozen except for this area. I watched as this small community played and stimulated my mind. I could only thank God for his beauty and entertainment. I could have watched these creatures for hours. Why look and get an upset girlfriend and free entertainment? I will tell you. Sometimes we need to sit back and observe. Take away time from school, work, reading, watching TV, anything really and be stimulated by Nature. Learn that there are 2 ducks that as soon as they Wiesel in the group, that an alpha duck chases them out.

Learn that the ice around these ducks has white snow that was being artistically drawn by God. The flowing of snow on top was being winded across like brushstrokes or placed in such a way that it makes me want to wonder. God's creation being shoved away. Wonder and exploration is being replaced by alternative media. Yes i like computers, occasional TV, love movies, music, and waste time. but never lose that childish wonder. That urge to go outside and explore. I pray that you can get a hint of how amazing Friday was. I may not be able to express in ways that you can understand but take time and observe these pictures. Better yet LOOK outside and observe for yourself that of which is around you. Explore your emotions,thoughts, ideas. Stop thinking about tomorrow and start worry about missing out on God's beautiful creation.
