This beautiful flower blossomed in my garden not too long ago and now it is gone. A short time to admire the beauty and smell the fragrance of the flower only. It took many months to reach the flowering stage and yet the flowers did not last long. As it withered it form seeds and the green seeds lasted longer. The flower can also be used for tea and is often presented to the BUDDHA during prayers.The purity and whiteness of the flowers attracted many insects and even me, human. The bud grew into a pure white sphere before it blossom into the amazing flower.
This photo consisted of 5 buds and only the middle blossom at this moment.
The transformation of the bud to flower from the Jasmine plant is very much a reflection of our journey on this earth.
It took us many years to grow up, to be of use and once we think we are there, it is time to go but the seeds of our life remain to carry on this existence on earth.
Our journey may be short but we can made the most of it by being of use to our fellow beings.
The meaning of life is there if we will accept it and we can not do much except hold on to the heart of GRATITUDE and be HAPPY!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
