Nature's Beauty

Dear bloggie,

Since I ran out of gag to use to blog... I think I pull the old "Blog on random events and thoughts" trick...

Here a random MSN conversation between MFR (who was slacking at work) and I (who was slacking at home)...

Bakau: http://www.facebook.com/ekwei?ref=nf#/album.php?aid=112316&id=684513439&ref=mf
Bakau: tibet
MFR: chun
MFR: holy shit
MFR: surreal
MFR: but is camera effect
Bakau: looks abit fake
MFR: camera effect
MFR: use big ass camera?
Bakau: see real one, should be more beautiful
MFR: hard to say
MFR: real one lousy can make it chun by effect also

Ok, when I say "real one, should be more beautiful" (means see with own eye at tat place itself) I meant this:

A priest was in charge of the garden within a famous Zen temple. He had been given the job because he loved the flowers, shrubs, and trees. Next to the temple there was another, smaller temple where there lived a very old Zen master. One day, when the priest was expecting some special guests, he took extra care in tending to the garden. He pulled the weeds, trimmed the shrubs, combed the moss, and spent a long time meticulously raking up and carefully arranging all the dry autumn leaves. As he worked, the old master watched him with interest from across the wall that separated the temples. When he had finished, the priest stood back to admire his work. "Isn't it beautiful," he called out to the old master. "Yes," replied the old man, "but there is something missing. Help me over this wall and I'll put it right for you." After hesitating, the priest lifted the old fellow over and set him down. Slowly, the master walked to the tree near the center of the garden, grabbed it by the trunk, and shook it. Leaves showered down all over the garden. "There," said the old man, "you can put me back now."

Beauty as we all know lies in the eye of the beholder, but sometimes me thinky think the greatest beauty lies within one's original nature...
