Man-made Forest

Before we reached the Chocolate Hills, we passed through Bohol's man-made forest.

These are mahogany trees stretched in over a 2-kilometer area in the border of Loboc and Bilar towns. What actually makes this attractive is the trees' uniformity in height of the big trees. As we entered this part of Bohol, I noticed the change of temperature. It's probably because of the prescence of the dense trees. You can see from the pictures that the trees block a lot of the sun's rays. I don't know if it's true, but I heard that it rains more often than not here in the man-made forest. It's a wonderful experience having the chance to walk here. There's fresh air and a really peaceful feeling reigns in me.

me and my cousins playing with the fallen leaves :D

God created man in His own image, in the image of God He created him; male and female He created them.

(Genesis 1:27)

The man-made forest reminded me that we are created in God's own image and likeness. Not that we are like Him in every aspect, but that we can also create things if we really like it, and also if it is according to His plan. Men are not made to be little gods. Rather, men have limited abilities almost similar to God's unlimited abilities. :D

I hope you could also get the chance to walk under the leaves in this beautiful man-made forest.

Ciao! :)
