Smiles Of Spring From My Little Garden And Some Pearls From Lofty Minds !

 

Hello Beautiful Souls ♥️

Hope picking blooms of nice and beautiful moments in the midst of odds 🙏

I wonder about days not long ago when world or at least larger parts of planet flourished in peace . It seemed that it was time for world’s people to recover from the trauma of two world wars one after another.When Me and hubby would talk over the cup of tea our topic would be that we were fortunate to live in era where peace and prosperity is at it’s peak and life standards of people are getting better. But it feels that our gratitude fell in the ear of devil and here we are again in the times of fear and despair,waiting for events that might change everything and forever for majority of the people! My faith says as humans we are created to support each other because Nature has designed life that grows and grooms in harmony and destroy and vanish in opposition. I hope and pray we can understand that simple reality spread laid before our eyes everywhere on this planet 🙏

My heart goes to those people who are suffering from  harsh conditions weather in many states of America! I pray that things get better soon so everyone can get back to normal life 🤞🙏

On the bright side,sharing flowers of spring from my little garden area dear friends,hope their beauty will warm and soothe your heart for while and make you forget how darkness is covering our light because we refuse to share it further with others like us! Last six images are from Hubby’s office building excluding one at the end.

      When I was writing this post I had no clue that a war had taken place in one of my neighbouring countries, we had watched news in the morning and war started many hours later, shocking and immensely painful

  6. My dear friend. This is a lovely and loving post. Yes, the world especially the US has gone on a downward spiral. Thank you for your prayers for us and the world. Bringing the beauty of your garden with photos and blessing shows that you are a caring person that is willing to share it. Thank you and have a wonderful day today.

    1. Dear friend Nichole 🥰
      Your uplifting words have healing power 🙏♥️

      I believe politicians have been completely unfair and heartless throughout the history for the public of their own country and countries around them, politics is game for power and it has no rule except personal gain,we all know that .

      It makes me happy that my little effort to share positive thoughts and delightful blooms with you has been rewarded with your liking dear friend 🥹🙏♥️
      You are generous 🥰♥️

  8. Your flower pictures along with the messages of wisdom were perfect for me today. They lifted me from the sadness of the bombings I awoke to this morning. I will mot talk politics of course. I mourn the loss of so many lives and I fear for more.

    1. You are absolutely correct dear Margaret that it will affect everyone not just one or two countries and it’s more sad unfortunate

  11. Beautiful flowers and wonderful, wise quotes, dear Baili. I have ceased to understand the ways of the world anymore. It would be so simple to have a world ruled by kindness and generosity, but there are those who seek power and control over any regard for humanity. We just have to live the principles of love, charity and hope in our everyday lives and leave the rest to the higher powers. I truly believe in Karma. Sending hugs, Karen

      It’s nice to know you found my sharing good 🙏
      I can relate to your confusion regarding current situation of the world ,when power overflows,it’s hard to handle it wisely. It makes us delusional and we make decisions in rush thinking without thousands of people who will harvest the results of such wrong decisions on the planet. Our planet doesn’t need such misery once again,it needs peace and harmony to grow and thrive

  15. Hello Baili,

  17. “But understand this, that in the last days there will come times of difficulty. For people will be lovers of self, lovers of money, proud, arrogant, abusive, disobedient to their parents, ungrateful, unholy, heartless, unappeasable, slanderous, without self-control, brutal, not loving good, treacherous, reckless, swollen with conceit, lovers of pleasure rather than lovers of God, having the appearance of godliness, but denying its power. Avoid such people." 2 Timothy 3:1-5

    Oh, Baili. Our whole world. Lord, help us.

    I have to say, that Rumi quote...wow. He could use a few words to change the whole world, couldn't he? My favorite poet in many ways.

    I have stepped away from blogging. I am not sure if I will be back. I saw your comment and came here to see how you are. It got me to thinking about so many things. Well, your post and also what is happening in Iran. Our time here is a blip even during peaceful times. It is a short time we are here, all of us. ❤️

    God bless you, Baili.

    1. My dear sweet friend Sandi it’s incredibly kind of you to visit me despite you are not blogging anymore?🥹

      I don’t know why you decided quitting blogging dear friend but I believe we all are free to choose whatever we want for the sake of our mental health 🙏
      I totally agree that with time materialism has grown to its peak and we humans are getting away from nature and creator.
      But one thing when I look at the history of first man Adam and his two sons . Both had different perspectives and different nature,one was follower of creator other was follower of devil and he chose to kill his brother no matter how good and virtuous he was.
      This particular incident in earlier human history reveals that this difference in humanity is pre planned. It’s not that people have been created evil ,but it’s true that half of them would stay with God and truth and half would follow their selfish desires blindly. This is strange game my dear friend we are sent to the world full of so many pleasures and pursuits and complete freedom of choice yet major aim of the game creator seems that who can recognise his false desire and refuse to follow it in order to exist harmlessly.
      Some succeed in this and many don’t.
      The biggest flaw here is to understand that game and be careful and never feel deceived by freedom of choice because it’s the actual “test”

      What is happening in Iran has made everyone shiver with fear for loss of valuable human lives . For creator we all matter,he doesn’t care what we think about each other.he wants his men to have harmony and mutual respect for each other and rest will be straightened by him ,it’s his promise but we don’t see it unfortunately!
      You will be in my thoughts and prayers dear friend Sandi ,it was very nice to meet you in blogland🥹♥️🙏

  18. I have been thinking of you as we heard the news of bombing in your surrounding region, baili. I hope it stops quickly. I often think how lucky my generation was to live in relative peace and wish our children did not have to suffer the anxiety of these restless times. Your flowers are welcome for their beauty and tranquillity - thank you.

    1. Thank you dear friend Jenny for your concerning kind words 🙏♥️

      Yes Iran is not very far from here and sudden war break had made people restless.
      To be honest my sentiments have been wounded by such terrible news from around the world. It’s utterly painful to see people suffering from wars and inhumane conditions only because their areas carry something wanted by powerful countries. World politics has caused so much misery to the people always and this era isn’t exception. Fight over power and resources is greatest threat for underdeveloped countries.
      Pakistan is facing such crisis right with Afghanistan,so we are dealing with multiple wars here .with Broken heart and wounded senses one can only wait for his turn while raising hands for prayers before Creator 🥹🙏
      This is nice to know that you liked my flowers,now shared with you all they are our flowers 🥰♥️

  19. Baili, the flowers are lovely and the quotes you included are inspiring. It will be quite some time before any flowers will be seen here as the snow is still very much on the ground and cold weather too. But, at this start of a new month, there is hope for better weather but sadly the world is still in much turmoil.

    1. I feel happy dear Dorothy that flowers from my little garden brought you some joy 🥰
      I hope spring arrives in your area soon 🤞
      Weather of our planet change eventually.but sadly human nature sustain it’s both sides with consistency. On the one hand goodness thrive and make our Creator proud on his good people.
      On the other hand ugliness of bad thoughts and behaviour causes pain to humanity without taking break. We are made to survive in between of both sadly because it’s not straight and smooth way to heaven

  20. Your smiling flowers made me cheerful. I can’t hold back my expectation for the real spring. Today I’m experiencing a sharp, returning g cold snap from the previous warmer days. Have happy days ahead, Baili.

  22. Boa tarde minha querida amiga Baili. Seja bem-vinda. Fico feliz em mostrar um pouquinho do Brasil, para você. Desculpe a demora na resposta. O Brasil é riquíssimo em cultura. As flores são maravilhosas. Gostei muito do texto: Ganhamos a vida com o que recebemos, mas construímos a vida com o que damos. Não importa se você está no Paquistão e eu no Brasil. Infelizmente o Google, não me permite seguir novos Bloggers. Tenho várias postagens, de lugares que eu conheci no Brasil e te convido a vê-las, quando você tiver tempo. Sou amigo da Nicole, acho que a uns cinco anos. Obrigado pela visita e comentário. Grande abraço do seu novo amigo Brasileiro. Uma excelente tarde de quarta-feira.

  27. Dear friend Louise 🥰
    I fully agree that no matter how much nature has gifted us with blessings to live a good life, life is still full of chaos on the other hand. Man has been created with such impulsive desires that no matter how much he gains he never feels content and seeks out to more power. After two big and long wars we have hardly taken sigh of relief and here we are creating new series of suffering for ourselves unfortunately,it seems to have no end.it’s sad and heartbreaking ☹️😞

    Many thanks for visiting precious post and leaving such uplifting message🙏
    You yourself are pure and beautiful light of faith and love my friend who enlighten our hearts by sharing it with us 🥹♥️
    I feel blessed to know you because just like you I too am deeply connected to Divine since I am in my senses 🥹🙏
    All of our troubles are rooted in our distance from our central Force our Creator our provider. We see what happens to petals when they are separated from their centre because it was centre who had kept them joined and together. Partitions are not good for our survival. Even though we all need to build our individual identity but complete departure from center is destructive and dangerous,we can get loads of worldly stuff but we will never be at peace inside and this anxiousness eats up our hearts and souls and balance between body and soul is disturbed. Resulting into the irreparable damage we see today 😞
    A heart of faith cannot loose faith though, I too believe that these twists are turns are part of our game of life and there is always sunrise after darkness of the night ☺️🙏

    You too are always in my thoughts and prayers dear friend, best wishes to you and loved ones 🙏
