 HAPPY EASTER! SOME BUNNY LOVES YOU!!!

Hello everyone and wishing you a season of love and renewed hope. We in Malaysia are currently experiencing horrendous heat daily... however, the beautiful result from the heatwave is a magnificent variety of flowers blooming everywhere we go.

It was quite a bewilderment to wake up to a full-bloomed garden one Saturday morning. Wow!

Where man sees but withered leaves, God sees sweet flowers growing. - Albert Laighton -

These pretty candy-pink wild flowers accented with magenta centers are flowers that totally do their best in crazy hot sun and even drought.

Fling off thy sadness...fair vernal flowers, laugh forth! Your ancient gladness. - Thomas Blackburn -

The price of anything is the amount of life you exchange for it. - Henry David Thoreau -

A brief history about Easter...

Easter falls in the spring, the yearly time of renewal, where the earth renews itself after a long, cold winter. The word Easter comes to us from the Norsemen's Eostur, Eastar, Ostara, and Ostar, and the pagan goddess Eostre, all of which involve the season of growing in the sun and new birth.

Easter spells out beauty, a rare beauty of new life. - S. D. Gordon -

My life is my message. - Mahatma Gandhi -

Growing in the sun... would literally mean, to me, facing the fieriness of life, and coming out smelling like a flower, just because we have a tiny seed of faith and we believe in the beauty of life that is bestowed upon us.

The soul would have no rainbow had the eyes no tears. - John Vance Cheney -

Don't go through life, grow through life. - Eric Butterworth -

New birth do not only mean giving birth to a newborn. It could also mean a change for you. New beginnings. Awakenings. Stirring up of your soul.

Within you lies opportunity to grow in spirit. Keep your feet on the Earth, but lift your face towards the Heavens. Surrender with a tranquil mind and a heart full of the love of God. - White Eagle -

I have found that if you love life, life will love you back. - Arthur Rubinstein -

Wishing all of you happy moments of love, realizing dreams, and enjoying simple pleasures. May you live ALL the days of your life.

 It is the hour to rend thy chains, the blossom time of souls. - Katherine Lee Bates -
