Talagang puro bulaklak na lang yata post ko dito sa blog ko, hindi lang pang -365 project ko kundi para na rin sa Litratong Pinoy this week. Hindi naman sa nagrereklamo ako sa sariling kagagawan ko, kaya lang baka kayo magsawa Medyo nahirapan akong maghanap ng batik sa paligid ko, kahit ng mantsa. Nang ibukas ko ang file ko kung saan nandoon ang mga may watermark ng mga litrato ay nakita ko ito. Kundi pa naman batik-batik ang orchid na yan, ewan ko na lang.
Kasing laki sya ng palad ko. Nakuhanan ko ng larawan noong taong 2008 sa Keukenhof dito sa Holland. Taon-taon ay binibista ng libo-libong Dutch at turista ang Keukenhof dahil dito naka display ang sari-saring nag-gagandahang bulaklak! Isa ang bansang Holland sa Europa na nag e-export ng mga bulaklak sa iba’t ibang parte ng mundo.
Kung wala ang kanyang mga batik, di ba para syang hubad?

Amyway, I’m wishing you Happy L.P. everyone!!

Song of The Flower
I am a kind word uttered and repeated
By the voice of Nature;
I am a star fallen from the
Blue tent upon the green carpet.
I am the daughter of the elements
With whom Winter conceived;
To whom Spring gave birth; I was
Reared in the lap of Summer and I
Slept in the bed of Autumn.
At dawn I unite with the breeze
To announce the coming of light;
At eventide I join the birds
In bidding the light farewell.
The plains are decorated with
My beautiful colors, and the air
Is scented with my fragrance.
As I embrace Slumber the eyes of
Night watch over me, and as I
Awaken I stare at the sun, which is
The only eye of the day.
I drink dew for wine, and hearken to
The voices of the birds, and dance
To the rhythmic swaying of the grass.
I am the lover’s gift; I am the wedding wreath;
I am the memory of a moment of happiness;
I am the last gift of the living to the dead;
I am a part of joy and a part of sorrow.
But I look up high to see only the light,
And never look down to see my shadow.
This is wisdom which man must learn.
- – Khalil Gibran

Well, here’s another flower post folks. What did I tell you? More flower posts coming this month. Because 1. the winter is still around and isn’t showing any sign of leaving! it’s like an overstaying unwanted visitor, 2. it’s all white outside that everything look the same to me and 3. I’m not up for any photoshoot, really 
I’m focusing on getting better. It’s gonna be a long way, baby.
Manic Monday (046)

Monday. Some people don’t like the day. How do they call it, Manic?
I have nothing against the day. Well maybe just a little. When I was still schooling, Unlike many kids who look forward to Mondays, I was the opposite. Probably because I was a working student with no dayoff.
Anyhoo, my Monday went okay, I guess. It was my first day with the physiotherapist.
After a long talk and probing of my problematic back, I heard the words. Words that I already knew even before hearing them.
Minimal computer work. Minimal internet hours. Ladadi, ladada…etc..etc.
I have to make a choice.

February 13. A Saturday. Great day to celebrate Valentine’s Day, I reckon. No work tomorrow so you can party and stay up late as long as you want, right?
Not for my husband and I. Because everday is Valentine’s Day for us. And we both do not fancy parties. Yeah, boring people, that’s how we are.
That’s how we are.

Like I wrote yersterday, I’ll be posting flower photos the coming days. It’s good for my spirit. To perk me up. Not only because now I’m getting meds for my back problems but I am hoping that my upcoming sessions with the physiotherapist would actually help. The latter I am crossing my fingers because I had it before but unfortunately didn’ t do me any good.
I’m keeping my fingers crossed.
