Lovely photographs. I see viewers in their comments have different preferences. My favourite is the second one, because I like its less literal expression, which gives room for thoughts and imagination.

A refreshing image of something bright and beautiful. Thanks for the recent comment. My family is okay in Capiz but now they have to rebuild after the storm. We are praying continuously. She said another storm may be coming soon. I wish I’m with them to help them go through such a scary event .i do know that God is good and he’ll find a way. Thanks.

I am so glad if I have been able to brighten your day; I know they must be filled with worry and frustration that you can’t be there with your family. I’m so glad to hear they are ok, but am so sorry for the devastation that they have been through. Be assured that I am saying daily prayers for them and all the people of the Philippines.

Thanks, Amy. This rose bush is still going strong, but the weather is getting colder at night now, so I think it’s the last hurrah for this year.

Perfect, Angeline. I love the beauty of the spent flowers or the inner beauty while still blooming that’s somewhat similar.
