Hello Beautiful Souls !
Hope and pray that you are grabbing " your " joy from each
moment passing by , with your wisdom and positivity :)
As this is BEST you can do for yourself because we never know that if we find the next one or not ?
After returning from Karachi best thing happened here was rain which washed away all the dust and pollution from air and plants! And it makes me happy :)
Views have become more clear and sky has shown it's actual charming face after ages !
Hubby wore this jacket brought by our eldest son on day next to rain
i bought these show pieces from Karachi 's discount shop
also bought bunch of sunflowers for older vase
seasonal plants are though less in variety this year still i am loving the blooms that looking at them feels like receiving the SMILES OF GOD !
2 days back it rained here which increased the cold but i was happy that everything looked neat
specially my little garden
after rain temp dropped to 6 c and hubby wore this jacket brought by our eldest son
Keep playing guitar of life and spread the sweetest tunes of your existence lovely fellows :)
My health always try hard to restrain my music of pleasure but i take deep breath , exhale all the negativity , jump and cross that obstacle with the strength given by my faith in my creator that
"i am finer than so many around" :) so no complains ,i am pleased and contend with my "half filled glass"
Each breath is filled with Gratitude !
wishing you all a happy ,healthy positive life everyone!
Take Great Care of your Precious selves !
God Bless You All!!!
Rain refreshes everything!
ReplyDeleteOf course it does dear Debra :)
DeleteI love rain! It makes things more visible and vibrant
Where we live rain is rare so everything gets dusty and dim so I wait desperately for rain and when it rains I spiritually celebrate it :)))
Always love your posts of home and family, your older son is so thoughtful and caring of you all.
ReplyDeleteThank you dear Christine!
DeleteYes he is indeed!
He knows that our older laptop is almost dead so he has left his own personal laptop for us here .
He said he will buy new one for himself, So nice of him!
Dearest Baili...oh how kind of your son to buy your hubby that jacket. It really suits him, doesn't it!
ReplyDeleteI do so love those wonderful photos of your plants. It does truly make the heart sing when they come into flower...such heartwarming beauty!😊😊
Oh thank you so much for another amazing list, dearest Baili!
I so enjoyed!
All my love and hugs xxx
Thank you sooo much dearest Ygraine for liking my bloomes
DeleteYes they make my heart overflow with joy and gratitude :)
Your positivity shines through all of your posts. I love the image of flowers being the smiles of God. Hooray for rain and your lovely garden. I'm reminded of part of a poem by English poet, Christopher Smart:
ReplyDeleteFor the flowers are great blessings.
For the flowers have their angels,
Even the words of God's creation.
For the flower glorifies God
And the root parries the adversary.
For there is a language of flowers.
For the flowers are peculiarly
The poetry of Christ.

DeleteThank you dear outlawgardner for praising the simpler beauty of my little garden.
DeleteHow sweet of you to share this outstanding poetry!
"For the flowers are words of God " how true
Hi Baili :) Yay for rain! I'm sure that did you a lot of good, and your garden! The flowers are so beautiful, they must make your half filled glass even fuller! :)
ReplyDeleteI love that glass bowl! From rain to 6C....that type of damp chill goes right through my bones!
Dear Rain I doubt I can survive that much cold as even reading it makes my body shiver
DeleteSo glad that you liked my bloomes
Yes they actually over flow my glass , Ah such a gift of our dear Creator!
Your post warmed my heart, Baili!
ReplyDeleteYour growing plants are full of beauty and potential. The white sweet alyssum among your marigolds makes me think of when I had a garden in the early years of our marriage. I always planted sweet alyssum. Unfortunately I taught in a year round school, and my teaching crowded out any time to garden in the summer ~ that, plus, clay soil, grasshoppers, and hail overwhelmed me. I can't wait to see how your garden grows.
I, too, like the rain, especially when it clears and cools the air. Terry and I recently made a big circle of traveling from Denver to Phoenix, Las Vegas, and back to Denver. Every time we travel that route, I am distressed by the quality of the air. Parts of that route are one of the most remote areas in the continental U.S. Thirty and forty years ago the air was crystal clear and pure; now it's hazy. The mountains around Vegas had edges that stood out against the horizon like knife blades; now they are often obscured by smog. It breaks my heart.
Your hubby looks great in his new jacket. What a thoughtful gift from your eldest son! I wish your son lots of success in his next year of study. It must be difficult for him to go back to the cold winter Europe is having after being in the warmth of home.
Take care, my friend! Sending you a big hug!
Thank you dear Louise specially for mentioning the name of plant with shiny white flowers I didn't know this
DeleteI believe you still have your garden area and enjoy the seasonal bloomes as staying CLOSE TO NATURE is priority for a creative person like you :)
How sad to know about hazy environment you observed during your travels
Growing population and problems caused by it such as global warming is huge issue
We are also facing hazy environment here my friend
Crystal clear skies and neat views have become dreams which don't feel to come true anymore
Thank you so much for sweet kind wishes
My heart feel same for you !
Nice pictures as always. It has also been raining a lot here in New York. I hope that the weather stays nice where you are. Have a great week!
ReplyDeleteHope constant rain is not causing problems in New York dear Brain
DeleteIf we get rain for few days our power leave for days as wiring system outside is not appropriate
You too have blessed week ahead my friend
I can imagine how you welcome the rain when it is so infrequent. It truly does wash the world clean, doesn't it?
ReplyDeleteI enjoyed your plants and blooms; ours are all under a blanket of snow. Some will come back in spring, though - it's one of my most favourite parts of spring, to see the little shoots breaking through the earth :)
We live in city near desert dear Jenny so air carries lots of dust within which makes everything inside and outside so dull and dim
DeleteSpecially keep house clean is quite a TASK here
Yes who can't love spring which gives life back to almost dead earth
Flowers are a must in my house.
ReplyDeleteBoth outside and inside.
They are indeed dear Pedro:)
DeleteWorld is incomplete without them
Seeing your plants I am going to plant pots again this spring and set them on a deck railing. I did that when we first moved to the mountains , after living in a house with a really large yard and lots of gardens. I miss gardening so much. I put pots on the railing here in the mountains but you have to bring everything in when it snows so I let them go ..they were annuals. Anyway nice jacket and I always enjoy your positive words.
ReplyDeleteThank you dear Sandy!
DeleteI wish you have lots of plants blooming on your rialling :)
I can imagine your disappointment when plants can't survive during snowy season
If you have enough sunlight you can grow window garden as many other blogging friends do
I really appreciate your encountering response about my simple words!
Lovely interesting photos.
ReplyDeleteI like the jacket.
Your artificial flowers are nice, sunflowers always brighten up a place, it will be lovely when yours grow in the garden, and what a pretty show you have now.
Thank you dear Margaret!
DeleteI am waiting for that moment eagerly when my garden will bloom completely in March "
Nice jacket! You seem to be such a close to each other family!
ReplyDeleteThank you dear Ola!
DeleteFor us family means "bunch of people who has lots and lots of love for each other " :)
Your visit with your son has rejuvenated you. Now you are back at home and seeing things through your optimistic eyes. Stay happy.
ReplyDeleteLovely post.
ReplyDeleteI enjoyed your plants and blooms, sunflowers are a gorgeous colour flower aren't they.
Your husbands jacket looks very nice.
As your son has now returned to his studies, I wish him continued success.
All the best Jan
Thanks for the lovely tour! Rain can be very refreshing. We are dealing with snow, ice and cold these days. I will be so happy when spring arrives!
ReplyDeleteThank you for these lovely photos, dear Baili. I love your little garden, your plants with their sunlight-kissed foreheads, and I love your positive thoughts... It is still winter here ... and it seems endless.
ReplyDeleteHave a beautiful weekend!
Hugs,
Edit
I enjoyed seeing your photos of your flowers and plants. We are all covered with snow here and dealing with bitter cold temperatures. Nice to see the cheerful colors of your plants.
ReplyDeleteAll your plants are so beautiful!!! Your hubby looks great in his jacket! Big Hugs!
ReplyDeleteYour garden looks lovely. The rain always brings out the best of flowers and leaves :-)
