Marigolds From My Mother’s Garden

“For every beauty there is an eye somewhere to see it. For every truth there is an ear somewhere to hear it. For every love there is a heart somewhere to receive it. ”
~ Ivan Panin (1855-1942)

Roses – Unconscious Beauty

 

“One of the most tragic things I know about human nature is that all of us tend to put off living. We are all dreaming of some magical rose garden over the horizon instead of enjoying the roses that are blooming outside our windows today.”
~ Dale Carnegie

Indian Monsoon Gallery

 

“When you go,
if you go,
And I should want to die,
there’s nothing I’d be saved by
more than the time
you fell asleep in my arms
in a trust so gentle
I let the darkening room
drink up the evening, till
rest, or the new rain
lightly roused you awake.
I asked if you heard the rain in your dream
and half dreaming still you only said, I love you.”
― Edwin Morgan, New Selected Poems

 

Monsoon is not just about the rain, or is it?

Anyways, you take care!

Stars Wearing Violet

Who in the rainbow can draw the line where the violet tint ends and the orange tint begins? Distinctly we see the difference of the colors, but where exactly does the one first blendingly enter into the other? So with sanity and insanity.
~Herman Melville

Giving colors a chance.. just another perspective!

Here, There, Everywhere

GREEN: Here, there, everywhere.

Am I not pretty?

Oops, I don’t belong here!

The “sheer joy” of being!

Have a good time!

Soft “Sepia” Stories

Just some flowers, drops, leaves, clouds…

“It’s not my story anymore: whenever I speak about the past now, I feel as if I were talking about something that has nothing to do with me. All that remains in the present are the voice, the presence, and the importance of fulfilling my mission. I don’t regret difficulties I experienced; I think they helped me to become the person I am today, I feel the way a warrior must feel after years of training; he doesn’t remember the details of everything he learned, but he knows how to strike when the time is right.”
~ Paulo Coelho

Experiencing Instagram

This is going to be a quick post, as I want to spend some time to check out your blogs. I’m sure, I have missed out so much.

Here are some photos I have taken lately, and then edited using Instagram.

I hope you like them! Have a good time.

My First Two Instagram Photos

Hi!

Posting after such a long time, apologies! I want to but I’m not able to.

Birthday Flowers and Updates :)

Hi!

Flowers for today, and as the post title says.I have chosen especially these flowers for today’s post. It is after three years that I’m with my parents at home on this day. I’m grateful!

Thanks to Miro (Warrior Poet Wisdom- one of my favorites!) for this wonderful poem -

A birthday is one day out of
Three hundred sixty-five
When people take a moment to
Notice that you’re alive

People that you haven’t heard
From in weeks, months or years
Suddenly make an effort
To send their joy and cheers

Well wishes because we’re told
That when someone was born
Is the one day of the year
That we should all adorn

That person with our honesty
Our caring, gratitude
To let them know directly without
Having to elude

At risk of sounding ungrateful
To those who drop a line
And wish a Happy Birthday, let me
Try to disentwine…

(read the rest of it here…) 

I know I have not been replying to your comments lately, and I won’t be be able to do that for a few weeks, starting from now. I have got some very important work to do. I will let you know about it, but may be later.

I have been reading all your sweet and kind comments, and I am so thankful. I love getting responses, as you might already be knowing.

I will miss posting and reading your wonderful blogs, but, I will be back as soon as I can, BECAUSE I LOVE IT OVER HERE!

With love and good wishes,
Nandini.
