I really look for inspiration everywhere. Today, two beautiful arrangements by @ediram88 now on its 7th day. I kept it hydrated twice during the week and added a rosemary branch and a basil branch to the arrangements. It is thriving #beyondmyexpectations – maybe because Ed put so much love into his craft and I benefited from his love of the arts. Thank you dear Ed and also @Oscar for the special intentions and delivery.
I also drew inspiration from this beautiful photo taken by my hubby @enriquedlz of a man-made water fountain we saw in one of our road trips. Do you get a sense I am missing travel, as all of you out there?
Let’s pray for a safe and efficacious #CoronaVirus vaccine be upscaled for manufacturing into billion doses by May/June 2021. Today, John Hopkins reported 27, 208, 206 new confirmed cases and 889,989 deaths worldwide. America, yes, the USA, has 6, 289, 964 new confirmed cases and 189, 069 deaths this Labor Day. 30% of frontliners, nurses and doctors come from our Filipino American communities. California now has 740, 245 cases with 13, 732 deaths while NY has 440,021 cases with 33, 002 deaths – former epicenter.

In the meantime let’s pray to #OurLafyofFatima for her divine intercession from this global #CoronaVirus pandemic as she did during the Spanish flu pandemic that killed 70% of the children’s population in Portugal, during 1916 to 1918.
