I discovered Nature at my doorstep


Tired and feeling under the weather. Let's not go to work today... 9am. I took a slow walk back home from the neighbourhood clinic… and discovered this gem.


How did I miss this before? A whole path littered with jasmine flowers. This is heaven.


There are starfruit trees. Ripe starfruits fallen onto the grass...


Haven't seen this plant since my kampong days... wow








This narrow stretch of green is packed with such a huge variety of flowering plants, I am so lost for words. So happy that I am sick today and can spend time examining every one of them. It takes a change of pace and an undistracted heart to notice such beauty right outside my doorstep. 



Are these grapes? In Singapore? This is so amazing... I wanted to show my find to Roney. What is this? What is that? Roney will have all the answers... 



Wonder who is/are the people tending this garden? They must be nice people with good hearts. People who make nature bloom like these got to have good hearts. I will be back. Maybe I can meet the gardeners the next time and tell them what a great job they are doing. Maybe I can spend a morning with them tending this neighbourhood garden together. 


The earth is a beautiful place. If only we open our eyes to see... I love my neighbourhood.
