“We have always held to the hope, the belief, the conviction that there is a better life, a better world, beyond the horizon.” – Franklin D. Roosevelt
Sharing a blooming red Gulmohar tree from right outside my apartment complex. I spotted this tree on my walk this week. A walk after 30+ days. If you are a regular here and missed the last two posts, I wanted to share that both VT and I contracted COVID early May. We are better now but it was a very hard time. I am praying that the worst is behind us now and I am hopeful that things will be better. Apologies for not commenting on your posts and thank you for checking in on me. I know many of you kept me in your thoughts and prayers. I am very grateful for all your love and support.
In which ever part of the world you are, I wish you good health and happiness.

I will be commenting again when my post goes live (United States). I am so relieved at your news. I feared that is what happened, and yes, you have been in my thoughts. This is one tree I hope to see in person one day. We call them royal poinciana but they aren’t hardy where I live.
