The garden of the world has no limits...
   Except in your mind.

Wiki says ...

"Weather is a chaotic system that is readily modified by small changes to the environment.." 

Is weather more chaotic than the human mind?

Every season has its own beauty - In the colors, temperatures, flora and fauna that flourish.
Lest we forget, nature's own ways of reminding us to acknowledge, appreciate and respect - Sometimes with a sunny afternoon, at times with harshest winter chills.

 

Silence

Listen to the wind,  it talks.
Listen to the green,  it speaks.

Speak only when your words are more beautiful than the silence...
The Earth has music for those who hear.

10 things to do on a weekend afternoon.

  
1. Stroll by the green expanse in the afternoon sun  
and cool breeze


2.      Rock yourself to the sound of silence in the rocking chair


3.      Observe the perseverance of the bird trying to build a nest straw by straw 

 

4.      Watch out for the whirring of the humming bird trying to aim at the nectar

 

5.      Listen to the chirping of the birds in conversation at the bird feeders at the early dinner


 
6.      Respect the parent bird trying incessantly to fly in and out with food to feed its little ones waiting inside the nest
 

 
7.      Admire the meek chirps of the little ones as the parent feeds them.

 

8.      Soak in the evening rays of the sun that adds magical hue to the surroundings

 
9.      Breathe in the freshness of the air

 

10.  Trail a butterfly adding color to the flowers

It’s a little sweet grove , nature at its best. This nature center is located in Illinois, USA.

The beauty of the flower is complete only with the green support, which is normally unnoticed.

Yesterday once more

A lot like home.....


Smell of soil after the first summer rain...
  Green grass glittering in the evening sun..
    Sound of rain drops on the roof in harmony with bolts of thunder,
      Warmth of the afternoon breeze ,
            Brightness of the evening sun,
               Chirping of the birds getting back to their nests,
                   Color of the ripened mango 

                 
Sometimes silence, at times sounds , and even noise.
Mostly unnoticed, yet omnipresent. 

Awakening the senses with thoughts of time gone by.

 Feels like yesterday once more.

Be Here Now

Live life today...Not yesterday , Not tomorrow.

Today is the first day of the rest of your life
