The Gift of Life ♥

Standard

My favourite composer

summed up the gift of life

in beautiful words.

The Gift of life

We are surrounded by such unbelievable beauty.
Life is enigmatic.
Life is delicate.
Life is painful.
Life is inspiring.
Life is love.
Life is the tears we shed
in joy and in sorrow.
Life is magical.
Life is the greatest gift!

(Thomas Bergersen  - Illusions)

Bluebell time  ♥

Standard

During a walk in the woods, I found many lovely Bluebells.

English Bluebells are delicate and look fragile.

They are coming in my garden too.

I do have both types, they are quite different.

These below are in my garden

I have many white English Bluebells


The Bluebell is the sweetest flower
that waves in Summer air.
Its blossoms have the mightiest power
to soothe my spirits care.

Kew Gardens 35th Smile

It is time again

for the Orchid Festival in Kew Gardens.

This time the orchids are from Madagaskar.

Madagaskar is home to my beloved ringtailed lemurs.

Handmade from nature they hang around.

I love them.

Lots going on in the Baobab tree

Such beauty, so many different varieties

Camelions are about…


Orchids remind us
of how important it is
to bloom.


All the animals are fantastic in between the orchids.


Ringtailed Lemurs

There are more animals flying around

Flying Fox

The beauty was endless

If you look the right way, 
you can see that
the whole world is a garden.

The Magic of Love ♥

Standard

Love is powerful

Love is magic.

The Magic of Love

The magic of love is
that it has the ability
to make the impossible
possible.
1 Corinthians 13:4-13


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.
