The story of Easter is the story of God's wonderful window of divine surprises!
and spiritual truths . . .
Easter is also a constant reminder of a wondrous tale
steeped in joy, sorrow, redemption
and undying love. . .
that blooms from brown to green to yellow (inset)
my Easter story does not only fall on Semana Santa . . .
and past the staunch silly reminder of the chosen people . . .
because we are ALL chosen
and the promised land
is always there
as promised!
for our eternal life on earth
and beyond . . .
Semana Santa (Holy Week) is a week-long vacation in my country. After Palm Sunday (April 1) there are only three working days (Monday to Wednesday) before the official holiday which started from Maundy Thursday (April 5) until Monday (April 9, Day of Valor, another holiday!) Some people, in anticipation of this long holiday, would file their leave at work early (after Pal Sunday!) so they can book for long holiday trips with friends or family. It is a complete bedlam in airports and terminals. As for me, I have chosen to remain in my house Heaven, enjoying the silence and the relaxing murmurs of happy healing energies . . .
There is really no difference with our two Hoyas
except maybe the color, the way their petals grow
(the one above has spaces between petals)
Much like you and I!
Happy Easter to one and all!!!

There is wisdom in your words, and I believe we are all chosen for the promised land.. :)
In my country we have holidays same as you, starting with Maundy Thursday and including the 2nd Easter Sunday (Monday).
Graceful Easter to you! :)
What a perfect ball shape these beautiful flowers develop. Lovely.
Happy Easter to you too!
Sweet and beautiful! Happy Easter Lui to you and Sweepy and all your Loved Ones.
Lui, these Hoyas are gorgeous!
I have a couple of Hoya plants, and although the flowers look the same as yours, there are always just 7 flowers in each group. Maybe there are different kinds of Hoyas (?).
I love Hoyas, I told you, did I, an old friend in Singapore is doing research non Hoyas.
Such a beautiful series of shots and commentary. I certainly agree with your statement about fragrance!
Guinatan sounds delicious.
wow that is an amazing flower.
