The Love Of Green

I have read an article from somewhere that tells about planting the seed of love. It says and I quote, ' Planting the seeds of love and friendship are one of the best things anyone can do. Not only will our gardens be enriched with soil and flowers, but our hearts will be filled with contentment and joy.' True indeed as when you see your garden blooms, it brings happiness and that feeling of embracing the beauty of nature. Quite a few that I know who loves planting as I do. To some it is a passion, a renewal of spirit, and a dedication. To some it can just be a hobby or perhaps an escape from reality and pressure. But whatever reason it might be, it’s the happiness of doing it that truly matters.

I have been here in Singapore for almost 5 months now and I truly missed gardening as well. I miss my plants. I miss digging the soil, making my hands dirty and do singing while planting. I miss the times when I'm outside at the house; I could see how my plant beautifully blooms while embracing the sunlight and fresh air. It's like they are also singing while the wind blows its melody. Everything flashed back to my memory, when my colleague, a good friend showed me his collection of cactus. I can see in him the passion, the excitement and the simple yet sincere love of planting. I am quite amaze with his passion and I was really grateful I've got the chance to take a glimpse of his other side. I've asked to take photos of his cactus and asked permission if I can post it here; let it show to those people who also have the passion of loving the green. I would really love to see this in actual one of these these days though. ^_^

Have a great day everyone. Till my next blog.



Thanks Jimmy for sharing..... Keep on planting .. ^_^

Growing...

Woaah it's been awhile since my last blogging. I'm in different country now by the way and feels great blogging all the way from Singapore, the land of many opportunities. Many things I have learned since that first day I came here. Being independent relying only to your own instincts and trusting to your own decision is making me feel the strength and the courage to face challenges. I have met quite a few friends already here and the warmth welcoming they have shown to me makes me feel more confident in land that I’m about to venture for the next few years. I have taken some pictures already from different places here and will have to post it on my next blog. I'm also excited to share my experiences here with you.



Yes, I miss my family, my treasure. But the thought of providing more convenience to them makes me feel ok, to the point of comforting my loneliness and my longing to be with them again. They said to achieve something, some sacrifices is really required. In my first few days here, I can't help myself crying looking at a distant wondering how are they doing right now. But prayers helped me a lot. Trusting everything to GOD and asking for protection always paved the way to a stronger allies, guiding me always when facing my day to day challenges here. We couldn't really say life is easy. Yes, it is difficult but along the way of unveiling each path there lies instruments that will teach us beautiful lessons in life that can mold us to become a better person, a beautiful being. What we are today is the product of how we do yesterday. We let it happen, a choice that comes along with consequences. Embrace its peculiarities and at end we will find answers to questions we may be hiding inside for quite so long. Spread our wings, learn to see the positive things and always believe. We are growing......
