Greetings to all 😉🙂
How arr you all..
There are moments in life when beauty greets you in the simplest places and my recent visit to my aunt’s home reminded me exactly of that. I was not expecting anything extraordinary just a quiet afternoon a bit of conversation and the familiar warmth of family. But the moment i stepped into her yard i was met with a colorful surprise that instantly lifted my mood. There standing proudly beneath the golden light of the afternoon sun, were gumamela flowers same elegant shape same soft petals but blooming in different breathtaking colors.
Gumamela or hibiscus is common around the Philippines, but there was something magical about seeing so many varieties all in one place. My aunt had carefully tended these plants and each bloom seemed to tell a story. Some were bright red glowing like little flames against the green leaves. Others were bright yellow cheerful and full of sunshine. There were orange ones that looked like a blend of sunset hues and even pink ones so soft they reminded me of early morning skies.. The diversity of colors felt like walking into a living painting..
What amazed me most was how the same flower species could look so different just because of color. The red gumamela looked bold and striking the kind that immediately catches your eye. Meanwhile the yellow and peach-colored ones gave off a calming gentle aura. The pink ones felt romantic and delicate, while the orange blooms brought an energetic lively vibe. Standing among them, I realized that nature has a beautiful way of showing us that differences are not something to divide us they make the world more vibrant and complete..
My aunt smiled proudly as she saw me admiring her garden. She said these gumamela flowers have been her companions during quiet afternoons especially when she waters them or trims the leaves. “Plants do not talk,” she told me “but they speak in colors.” And she was right. Each bloom felt like a small message of beauty growth peace and joy..
As we walked around her garden a light breeze passed through, making the petals flutter softly. The colorful blossoms swayed gracefully as though they were dancing. It felt peaceful almost magical. It made me appreciate slow moments those times when you pause breathe and simply take in the beauty around you.
I took a closer look at the flowers and noticed how unique each one really was. Some petals were wide and bold while others had ruffled edges. Some had deep solid color while others carried gradients that faded beautifully from one shade to another. Even though they were the same type of flower gumamela their differences made them special..
The whole experience at my aunt’s place reminded me that beauty does not always need to be grand or complicated. Sometimes it shows itself in simple things colorful flowers growing quietly in a garden the fresh scent of leaves after watering or the peaceful silence of a sunny afternoon..
Before i left i took one last look at the garden. The gumamela blooms seemed to glow even brighter as if they were bidding me goodbye. I felt lighter happier and grateful for that colorful moment..
Visiting my aunt’s place was not just a simple visit it became a reminder that nature has its own way of making us smile. And sometimes all it takes is a garden filled with gumamela flowers in different beautiful colors..
Thats all for today thank you hope you enjoyed it.. Thank youu 🌺🌺
