Blooming Bloor-Yorkville

 Spring in Toronto is blooming with tulips in different colours from yellow, red, pink and dark purple among others. A sunny spring walk along the Mink Mile, popularly known as Bloor St. is now blooming in yellow and red tulips. They are so pretty all along way. Equally amusing are the window displays in the luxury brands flagship stores from Holt Renfrew to Prada, Gucci, Michael Kors, Hermes, Dolce & Gabbana and Louis Vuitton. The displays are just so inspiring, fantastically full of colours and style inspiration. Enjoy the spring season while it last.

Spring Tulips

 Spring is a season of renewal and rebirth. Just like our tulips now blooming in our garden in different colours and breeds. Spring is a season to wear colour in red, yellow, orange, purple, white, green and pink. It is time to go out and enjoy this spring season and gardens. 

 

 

There is a time for everything, and a season for every activity under the heavens.

Nature's Wonders

I was preparing for dinner the other night when I caught a quick glimpse through our kitchen's windows overlooking our garden a delightful surprise of our tulips finally blooming. In my excitement, I immediately ran to grab my camera to take some photos. This for me is the perfect time to capture the blooming of our tulips. This is the stage that they are preparing to show us their beauty into full flowers. The anticipation of our flowers blooming is one of the joys of Spring.

During this Spring time, the season for renewal, I have reflected on some things about nature:  

• Patience pays off. Let nature take its own course. We will eventually be rewarded with our blooming flowers.
• Change is constant and good. We experience changing Seasons, changing colours, growth and expansion.
• We do not have to venture too far to find Beauty. Only if we will look for it and find it right in front of us, exactly where we are. 

• Find beauty in the imperfections. There is one tulip in these photos that is out of line. I tried to fix it but it won't let me. So I just left it instead of breaking it apart. It is where it wants it to be. Just let it be.
• Lastly, let nature surprise us in its own way! I am excited now on what else will bloom in our garden next. 

May everyone have a wonderful week!
