First of all thank you for all of your love and support. I wish you all the happiest of holidays. ššš š
Itās not easy to paint as much but I love it, itās worth it and I hope you are enjoying my creations! If not thatās okay too š¤Ŗ
So, occasionally, I get to get out of my apartment (art studio/medical supply company ššš) thanks to my awesome caregivers. One of them is Sarah and we have been, each time we go there, exploring different parts of Balboa Park.
Below are some of the pictures and it gives me inspiration - these different parts of one San Diegoās best sites! Itās historic, enormous and beautiful. Seeing nature is divine to meā¦ and these little trips mean so much.
Many of you know, I used to be a writer when I could use my hands and body better but then had to stop,
However, I just couldnāt resist writing about (Voice texting) the experience we had the other day. Now I would like to share it with you!
Secret Garden
The warmth of the morning sun, the birds flitting about, eating the berries and wandering from tree to tree.
There are too many colorful breasted species to count.
A warm sense of peace abounds.
The lion fountain pours water through its majestic snout down to the glistening crystal clear stucco pond with its perfectly smoothed stones resting atop each other.

We cannot resist.
Two pennies - one for Sarah and one for me. I hesitate with rushing thoughts of what my wish would be.Ā Too many things to wish for. Too many thingsā¦

Looking around again and taking in the scene, I stop and am astonished at the stunning bright white roses. Nestled among the gleaning white a few have a slight pink tint.
Unreal the perfection of our creatorās creations. Unreal when we can observe and appreciate this world and unblemished nature.
The rose bushes are set perfectly in the corners of the octagonal garden, a garden protected by the manicured green grass and a carefully cemented path.
Another green spectacular sight are the tall topiary trees reaching, reaching, reaching for the sky.
Sighā¦a moment of grace and suspension from reality, and at the same time, Iām completely present in all that surrounds me.
