A beautiful peach-colored Hibiscus flower bloomed


My garden is home to various seasonal flowers, and every so often, something new emerges as a trailblazer. Recently, a beautiful peach-colored Hibiscus flower bloomed, stealing the spotlight. The flower is large, with ruffled petals that gently transition from a soft peach at the edges to a deeper pinkish-red at the center. The central stamen is striking, with bright yellow and red details adding to its charm.

The flower is attached to a slender green stem, surrounded by lush foliage. A black butterfly with a yellow border and black dots briefly stopped by the flower, leaving me with a surge of delight, even though I had no time to capture the moment.

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.
