Gardening's Lovely!

"Behold the beauty of God's creations!"

Do you like gardening? Great if you do - that's really good for this Earth. More plants, more oxygen. 

If you don't, perhaps you appreciate receiving flowers. Or perhaps your "someone" likes receiving flowers from you! It might be a bit expensive sometimes, but boy - money can't buy her/his smile after the flowers are sincerely presented! It's kind of special, getting flowers during special occasions or even - when there's no occasion. Really!

They say the flowers' colors have different meanings. A white rose can mean peace, purity, or forgiveness. A red rose can mean passionate love, a desire to win the heart. Yellow mums are for the dead, while others think the purple orchids are best on top of the coffin. 

Fascinating, how people interpret the flowers and the colors. I think they're all lovely. Each one is unique, each one a beauty of its own. If I live in a house with a large garden, I'd be so delighted and will never be bored with the beauty all around me! Oh how I wish... :)  

And so naturally, I was on cloud nine when I got to see this beautiful and peaceful place. It's a Shrine for Christian people. It has a really calming effect. Truly lovely and refreshing. A day would never be enough to see all the plants here. Amazing!

I continue to love plants and trees and flowers. I think that God truly is a wonderful creator and designer to think up all these colors - and designs! It's a fascinating world we have - plants, animals, and us humans. 


And for the record - gardening really gives a lot of benefits. Good exercise, cultivation of creativity, delightful visuals, and sweet smells!
