To be perfectly honest, I'm not sure why I did this to this image. But I did, and I'm not changing it. LOL.
here is another one.
all the monks are supposed to gather in the courtyard in sera monastery and debate their opinions of the scriptures every afternoon. but too bad the day I was there, there was no debate. they just sat there on the ground and read out loud. I waited for like two hours then gave up.

This image was scanned from an item in the Williamson Collection of some 450 photographic glass slides and other items, which was acquired by the archives section of the Auchmuty Library. The collection was assembled by Archdeacon A. N. Williamson, who served for many years in the Diocese of Newcastle, as well as travelling extensively in the South Pacific area. The collection vividly portrays town and country life in Australia, particularly in Sydney and the Hunter Valley, soon after the turn of the century. The collection also illustrates life in Japan, Papua New Guinea, Nauru and Fiji, from the turn of the century until the mid-1930s.

During the ceremony, the groom's Dad read this beautiful scripture.
If I speak in the tongues of men or of angels, but do not have love, I am only a resounding gong or a clanging cymbal. If I have the gift of prophecy and can fathom all mysteries and all knowledge, and if I have a faith that can move mountains, but do not have love, I am nothing. If I give all I possess to the poor and give over my body to hardship that I may boast, but do not have love, I gain nothing.
Love is patient, love is kind. It does not envy, it does not boast, it is not proud. It does not dishonor others, it is not self-seeking, it is not easily angered, it keeps no record of wrongs. Love does not delight in evil but rejoices with the truth. It always protects, always trusts, always hopes, always perseveres.
Love never fails. But where there are prophecies, they will cease; where there are tongues, they will be stilled; where there is knowledge, it will pass away. For we know in part and we prophesy in part, but when completeness comes, what is in part disappears. When I was a child, I talked like a child, I thought like a child, I reasoned like a child. When I became a man, I put the ways of childhood behind me. For now we see only a reflection as in a mirror; then we shall see face to face. Now I know in part; then I shall know fully, even as I am fully known.
And now these three remain: faith, hope and love. But the greatest of these is love.
As I was reading this verse it struck me how often we cry out to God to save us or to do what we want Him to do, and how often we forget to praise Him. I wonder what would happen if we starting praising Him in trials as well as asking Him for help and guidance in them. What if we went to Him to praise Him as much or more than we went to Him to get things? What would happen if we set time aside daily to rest in His presence and sing His praises? I bet the trials would seem a lot easier. I myself so often forget to do this, to praise Him amidst trials. But when I do His joy, peace, love and hope change me. I start to see things differently and with hope again. Suddenly life becomes brighter and beautiful again. So today I am going to praise Him, no matter what happens. And I will be joyful because of Him.
