a garden forever

I find this quote Alfred Tennyson, so romantic. Well, he is indeed a lyric poet!
Just thinking of a garden forever makes me smile. I also think this garden of purple orchids is so perfect for this quote. Don't you agree?

gentleness

I love how Saint Francis de Sales showed that real strength lies in gentleness. Sometimes the I am amazed at how gentle somebody can be even if he appears like hulk.

The photo is a layer of two photos - the background is my favorite grass photo and the other is a photo of a flower arrangement in a resort.

It's never too late

Yes, I believe it is never too late to do anything especially if it is about fulfilling ones dream. Thanks George Eliot for this reminder!

The background photo is again one of my favorite flowers - the Oxalis or wood sorrel. This is the purple kind or Oxalis regnellii atropurpurea.

You win

Richard Bach said this thing about the power of the mind so well. Everything that we experience actually starts as an idea before it becomes manifested. So if we think we can win, then we can, as Richard Bach says!

The photo shows purple-pink colored mums.

Friends are flowers

This quote from an unknown author is so true. Friends really "...are flowers in the garden of life." We can therefore fill our garden with different kinds of flowers to make it lively and interesting.

The a photo is a bunch of purple mums that I bought from a florist.

Love, Prayer and Forgiveness

All I can say about this quote from an unknown author is - "how true!" Love, prayer and forgiveness can always do wonders in any situation.

I like this photo that I took of the purple leaves of a tree. I don't really know the name of the tree. I was just attracted to the color and formation of the leaves.
