An eye catchy Hibiscus in our garden


This beautiful yellow Hibiscus flower, with its striking red center, is from the pots my eldest sister left behind before going to the USA. The petals are vibrant and have a delicate texture, surrounded by lush green foliage. The red center adds a stunning contrast, making the flower stand out even more. It looks like it is thriving well in our garden! This color is a new addition to our garden and always stands out.

The central part of the Hibiscus flower is quite striking. It has a deep red color that radiates outwards into the base of the petals, creating a vivid contrast with the bright yellow petals. In the very center, there is a prominent stigma and style, surrounded by several yellow-tipped stamens. The overall effect is eye-catching, with the red center drawing attention to the intricate details of the flower's reproductive structures.

Inspired, I decided to transform the stone into a keepsake bearing the profound quote. After cleaning it meticulously, I used liquid paint to inscribe the words. My vision was to frame this stone in a unique yet economical way. Fortunately, I found a carpenter willing to take on this unusual task. I even bundled in a few other odd jobs for him. However, when the job was completed, my excitement turned to disappointment. While fixing the stone into the ...

I drift apart, I struggle to reclaim my wholeness. Am I one or many? The centrifugal forces of life seem to fragment me, threatening to shatter my essence into countless pieces. Yet, I yearn to integrate, to reunite with my true self. The pool of my soul is overflowing with tears, emotions, turmoil, and provocations, punctuated by moments of cessation and termination. To navigate this tumultuous landscape, I must summon immense strength and resilience. I must cultivate the discernment to distinguish essence from excess, allowing only the vital to remain.
