Every day we have the opportunity to choose a positive attitude, to be the change we want to see and to encourage ourselves and others to face the future with faith and hope. There is always something to be grateful for, always some grace and beauty to focus our attention on, always new dreams to dream and work towards. Life is an incredible gift. What I see and capture through my camera reminds me to focus on all that is beautiful, excellent and praiseworthy - and there is never any shortage of those things if I will but take the time to look.

ReplyDeleteIt's interesting that you mention the Jacarandas flowering long past their season. We have noticed the very same in Brisbane over the last few years. Jacarandas have their usual profuse blooming in October/November but they continue to flower throughout the rest of the year to a much lesser degree. It is a lovely sight though.
