Flowers of the Southeast

Human nature is so much capable of drowning itself to a whirlwind of confusion,.
I myself cannot escape to this reality...

Every moment i have to seek happiness to warm my little heart inside
And that's why i come up with this ...

To remind myself that even in solitude, Life has more beauty to offer...

Look,

We saw this in tagaytay

Its color is from blue-green to mint green



This is from my mother's office,.

because the leaves are thin and papery.


And this one also,.researches suggested the milky sap

possibly anticancer possibly properties.
