Two months has passed since life began in this city I now call home. Everyday I am confronted with city life; keeping in rhythm to the pace of the people around me.

It was from an unexpected encounter with a new friend and fellow believer that brought me the opportunity to take the necessary break away from the hustling and bustling of the city. I never realised this, but getting out, away from the city was something I never thought I needed.

This exhausting yet refreshing trip gave me a chance to once again enjoy the beauty of nature that I had started to forget. The entire hike was filled with wide eyes and squeals of excitement, staring at the sun-light piercing through the trees. The trail that started with green trees slowly transitioned to bright yellow and orange, revealing the wake of the Autumn season approaching fast.
The feeling was incredible, the weather was rejuvenating, and the company was more than I could have expected from a first meeting. It was amazing.

Thank you, Lord for giving me the chance to open my eyes and marvel at the beauty of your creation.

“Let the heavens rejoice, let the earth be glad; let the sea resound, and all that is in it. Let the fields be jubilant, and everything in them; let all the trees of the forest sing for joy.”
Psalm 96:11-12
