Today's Blessings




Today's blessings are these orange flowers which reminded me of God's faithfulness which is new every morning.

The profusion of tiny blooms are the dama de noche or the night blooming jasmine. Last night it bloomed and gave a heavy sweet scent even our neighbors can smell. It has a superstitious belief attached to it though. Old folks believe if there is a single lady living in the house, chances are she will never marry because of the dama de noche. Arrgh! My daughter is already twenty five and single and not living in our house so she's exempt. Ok? Besides God did not assign the dama de noche to decide on single ladies' fate. That's eejit.
