Hochschwab Mountains
A rare natural phenomenon turns one of Austria’s most beautiful hiking trails into a 10 meter-deep lake, for half the year.
Located at the foot of the Hochschwab Mountains, in Tragoess, Styria, Green Lake is one of the most bizarre natural phenomena in the world. During the cold winter months, this place is almost completely dry, and used as a country park where hikers love to come and spend some time away from urban chaos. But as soon as temperatures rise, the snow and ice covering the mountaintops begin to melt, and the water pours down, filling the basin below with crystal-clear water.
Water levels go from one-two meters at most, to over 10 meters, in the early summer. The waters of Green Lake are highest in June, when this extraordinary place is invaded by divers, curious to see what a mountain park looks like underwater. Fish swimming over wooden benches, a grass-covered bottom, trees, roads, roads and even bridges create a surreal setting that feels like it belongs on dry ground. That’s because for half of the year, that’s exactly where it’s at.

Outside Our Bubble
Once we understand that the world is beyond ourselves, we start seeing that people actually have hearts, have feelings, have emotions, have hopes and dreams, no matter how small they might seem. It's not just about our little bubble anymore.

Reese Witherspoon, accepting her MTV Movie Award Generation Award: “Girls, I know it’s cool to be bad, but it’s also possible to make it in Hollywood without a reality show. When I came up in this business, if you made a sex tape, you were embarrassed and hid it under your bed. And if you took naked pictures of yourself on your cell phone, you would hide your face. For all the girls out there, it’s possible to be a good girl. I’m going to try to make it cool.”
What a lady she is…defining the modern, driven woman.. She took the high road and did it the classy way, and look where it got her.
I told you I wasnt like no other Teen(:
Like you read in my last writing post, I'm not your average teenage girl.
I dream things and wish for things that your average teenage girl wouldnt care for right now.
I can wait to see what my kids with look like!
Blonde hair, blue/green eyes. I would dress them for success with little cute sun dresses and handsome beach shorts. My kids will be the poster kids of tommorrow!

Im going to have a beautiful daughter named Emileigh who is everything I wanted. She will tutus like this girl and have her daddy wrapped around her finger. She will be perfect(:
My kids will have darling, charming rooms that they will love and remember!
Well enough about my dreams....Whats yours?(:
Trust in Him
“ Do not be anxious about anything, but in everything, by prayer and petition, with thanksgiving, present your requests to God. And the peace of God, which transcends all understanding, will guard your hearts and your minds in Christ Jesus."

Two Bare Feet on the Dashboard
I know in my blog I dont write much, so for the people who follow me this blog is quit boring (hint why I only have 4 followers). I mostly just copy and past pictures and sayings, giving them title or adding little blurts. I wonder what people think when they randomly fall apon my blog. Are they like "she should start a tumblr" or "oh she is just another teenage girl"? If you knew me you would know I am not an average teenage girl. If you really knew me you would know I dont like tumblr, only to look for inspiring pictures.
I decided I am going to try my hardest this whole summer to write ATLEAST once a week in my blog. I'll tell you whats up, about my week, and just random blurps. I go through and see all these blogs and I see why they have a blog. Their blogs have a perpose, a meaning.
Though I started this blog with a meaning, I slowly faded from that. I started this blog wanting people to know what my life as a teenage military brat is like. Now, it has no meaning. So, take this as me breathing life back into my Blog(:

Stay Beautiful♥
If you and I are a story
That never gets told
If what you are is a daydream
I'll never get to hold, at least you'll know
You're beautiful, every little piece, love
Don't you know, you're really gonna be someone
Ask anyone
♥
Captain Hook: Growing up is such a barbarous business, full of inconvenience... and pimples.
Wendy: I think you have, Peter. And I daresay you've felt it yourself. For something... or... someone?
Peter: Never. Even the sound of it offends me.
[Wendy tries to touch his face, and he jumps away]
Peter: Why do you have to spoil everything? We have fun, don't we? I taught you to fly and to fight. What more could there be?
Wendy: There is so much more.
Peter: What? What else is there?
Wendy: I don't know. I guess it becomes clearer when you grow up.
Peter: Well I will not grow up! You cannot make me! I will banish you like Tinkerbell.
Wendy: I WILL NOT BE BANISHED!
Peter: Then go home. Go home and grow up. And take your feelings with you!

Face the Future with Faith
We live in a time of turmoil. Earthquakes and tsunamis wreak devastation, governments collapse, economic stresses are severe, the family is under attack, and divorce rates are rising. We have great cause for concern. But we do not need to let our fears displace our faith. We can combat those fears by strengthening our faith.
Mercies in Disguise
We pray for blessings
We pray for peace
Comfort for family, protection while we sleep
We pray for healing, for prosperity
We pray for Your mighty hand to ease our suffering
All the while, You hear each spoken need
Yet love us way too much to give us lesser things
(Chorus)
'Cause what if Your blessings come through raindrops
What if Your healing comes through tears
What if the thousand sleepless nights are what it takes to know You're near
What if trials of this life are Your mercies in disguise
We pray for wisdom
Your voice to hear
We cry in anger when we cannot feel You near
We doubt Your goodness, we doubt Your love
As if every promise from Your Word is not enough
And all the while, You hear each desperate plea
And long that we'd have faith to believe
Chorus
When friends betray us
When darkness seems to win
We know the pain reminds this heart
That this is not, this is not our home
Chorus
What if my greatest disappointments
Or the aching of this life
Is the revealing of a greater thirst this world can't satisfy
What if trials of this life
The rain, the storms, the hardest nights
Are your mercies in disguise
We pray for peace
Comfort for family, protection while we sleep
We pray for healing, for prosperity
We pray for Your mighty hand to ease our suffering
All the while, You hear each spoken need
Yet love us way too much to give us lesser things
(Chorus)
'Cause what if Your blessings come through raindrops
What if Your healing comes through tears
What if the thousand sleepless nights are what it takes to know You're near
What if trials of this life are Your mercies in disguise
We pray for wisdom
Your voice to hear
We cry in anger when we cannot feel You near
We doubt Your goodness, we doubt Your love
As if every promise from Your Word is not enough
And all the while, You hear each desperate plea
And long that we'd have faith to believe
Chorus
When friends betray us
When darkness seems to win
We know the pain reminds this heart
That this is not, this is not our home
Chorus
What if my greatest disappointments
Or the aching of this life
Is the revealing of a greater thirst this world can't satisfy
What if trials of this life
The rain, the storms, the hardest nights
Are your mercies in disguise
We May Never Know
“There is a theory which states that if ever for any reason anyone discovers what exactly the Universe is for and why it is here it will instantly disappear and be replaced by something even more bizarre and inexplicable. There is another that states that this has already happened.”
