Trust

Trust is something we have to learn, especially trust in God. Corrie ten Boom said this so nicely in this quote.

The photo is a pair of slippers left by a swimmer on the beach of Boracay.

Enough

Enough is the keyword in this quote from an unknown author. I find this as a very good wish for anybody. Enough should really keep us happy, human and hopeful. If we have less, then we will always be wanting for more while if we have more than enough, then we usually fail to appreciate what we have.

I created a soft effect for this rose in Photoshop.

Do not fear the unknown

This quote from Pope John Paul II exhorts us to keep our faith and not be afraid of the unknown. I find this so reassuring.

The photo is that of a leaf that I converted into a kind of abstract art. I'm having fun playing around with Photoshop.

Sometimes

These lines come from a poem by an unknown author. The first two lines are actually what attracted me to this poem. It's because I love taking photos of flowers with raindrops and so I thought my photo and the poem fit each other.

Here is the whole poem:
      

"Sometimes it takes rain
To make the flowers grow
Sometimes it takes real pain
Before real joy one knows
Sometimes it takes tomorrows
To understand days gone by
Sometimes before the laughter
There comes heavy sigh
Sometimes it takes the midnight hour
To value morning light
Sometimes it takes the longest mile
Before things come in sight
Sometimes you often wonder
Why your heart can get so sore
But its the rocky paths in life
That makes you cherish the smooth roads more!"

a little rain

I love this quote from an unknown author. The "little rain" that sometimes come, makes me appreciate better the good things that happen in my life.

Actually, I love rain because it creates raindrops that I love to take photographs of.

friends are like rainbows

Friends not only brighten our life, they also lighten our load. Whoever is the unknown author of this quote surely must have a great set of friends!

The rainbow colors in this photo was created by catching light on a cd.

Friends

This is another quote about friends. Unfortunately, I don't know the author but I wholeheartedly agree with what he/she said.

I took this early morning shot while we were waiting for sunrise at the highest point in Corregidor island, here in the Philippines.

your destiny

The unknown author of these reminders sure knows how things start! Yes, everything starts as a thought or an idea before they actually become manifested as words we utter or as part of our actions, habits, or character.

I created this completely in Photoshop.

For every love

I love the positive feeling that this quote gives me. Don't you feel the same way?

The photo is that of an Alstoemeria flower. It belongs to the Lily family.
