♡ THE FLOWER OF HAPPINESS ♡

This saturday gardening features the "flower of happiness" because I so need happiness today! In facts I had quite a bad day today, because of some mistakes about a target that I'm pursuing with my top commitment. And though I'm working so hard for it, not seeing the improvements that I was hoping for (or better, not improving as much as I wanted), just makes me feel bad and disappointed. So today I need a little happiness boost. This flower in the picture is called "the flower of happiness", this name was given to this flower because it lasts open only for 24h and, as my granny used to say, there is a very old saying stating that happiness lasts short. Though this saying seems not the top happiness, my granny used to say that there is a popular belief that this flower brings to its owner happyness in the 24 hours it stays open; and, the more flowers opened, the more days of happyness!

♡ BEAUTIFUL DAWN ♡

Happy monday everyone! This is the beautiful sunrise I happened to see this morning. I do not usually wake up this early, but today, at 4.50-something in the morning, I woke up because of a mysterious, soft, crackling noise... 

At first I started checking the air conditioner hanging over my bed, and the old chinese wooden chandelier hanging in the middle of my room, if they were still holding on... but they seemed alright... I'm quite a scaredy cat so I started saying all my prayers while I started noticing that the noise was coming from behind my bed, under my bed... and then I realized! 

Yesterday night, before sleeping, I ate a little sweet and left the wrapping paper on the floor to throw it away in the morning. But ants ANTS (!) 🐜🐜🐜 tiny little ants noticed it and they were already all over it while I was sleeping. The crackling noise that woke me up was them separating the few little sweet crumbs from the wrapping paper! 

Of course I threw the paper right away in the thrash bin, it was already mornig anyway, so I went to my living room, and this was the amazing scene that was displaying from the french window! 

Everybody have a nice week!
