SAGADA WILDFLOWERS IN AUGUST

"Love is like wildflowers; It's often found in the most unlikely places" 
They show up into our lives by accident and stay for a purpose.
They represent hope and love which are like stars that shine in the dark.







They give peace that which comes from within..
From their lovely petals, the words of Ghandi vibrate:
"Be the change you wish to see in this world."











They remind us that peace begins and ends with us.

Like the wildflowers who grow by themselves..
we, too, are the master-gardener of our souls.

May we be touched with great awareness..

.. that may lead us to acknowledge our inner truth:
that in our weakness comes strength and beauty.
The flowers of the fields are often uprooted because they are just weeds.
But may all your weeds wildflowers;)

Scents from wildflowers make the air exhilarating...

They make the morning walk and evening saunter refreshing..
They give thrill as they shine by the stars at night.

"No matter how chaotic, wildflowers would spring up from nowhere."



Heaven
in
a
wildflower.












Love & peace!

CULTURAL VIGNETTE : A tale on the Traditional Costume of the Isneg Tribe of Apayao Province in the Philippines

"Most people think Time is like a river that flows swift and sure in one direction. They are wrong. Sit down and I will tell you a tale like none that you have ever heard." ~Yuri Lowenthal Long ago, in the northernly end of the Cordillera central mountains, lies a province named Apayao. Here, a mighty river, savagely rough and deep, courses through steep mountain gorges down to the valleys and plains, straight to the Philippine Sea. This river, so blue in the mid-morning sun, is the life force for a tribe in Apayao called ISNEG. The Isnegs lived isolated in these expansive mountains with  stunning scenery, adorned with small hills and steep cliffs along both sides of the river. A labyrinth of valleys and foothills, embraced by tropical forests and Savanna grass, led them to their paradise. To reach this haven, they navigated for hours on personalized bamboo rafts or small boats, then traversed long trails to their homes. The people cherished their l...

SUNSETS & The Little Prince

Sunsets do take my breath away sometimes. They come different each time. What is mesmerizing is when they slowly fade away into the dark night. Like Anais Nin, I look at sunsets and remember The Little Prince in his tiny planet. He is in his own world, teetering at the edge, counting his sunsets... It is only with the heart that one can see rightly; what is essential is invisible to the eye. Below are photos of beautiful sunsets. Sunset 01 by Chyt Daytec-Yangot Sunset by  Paz Awingan Aptimes "This is a beach summer sunset at Williamstown, Victoria, Australia. I left home a bit too early one evening for work so I detoured to the beach. I got rewarded with this scenes ..." Sunsets 02 & 03 by Paz Aptimes, Australia When I admire the wonder of a sunset or the beauty of the moon, my soul expands in worship of the Creator. Mahatma Gandhi
