Summer is Here

Mar 17th 2008Philippines & Photos & Weekend Snapshots

March signals the start of summer in the Philippines. Although we have had a lot of cold mornings, these are slowly being replaced by warm breezes, if there is even a breeze at all.

Cool mornings are slowly becoming not-so-cold where we live. I would miss these, waking up still very dark and feeling chilly and sleep-deprived.

Now, mornings are warmer, especially this Palm Sunday. The sun is slowly showing itself from behind thick, gray clouds that enveloped the sky all throughout the day for the past two-three months. I dread summer days when the heat becomes unbearable. But still, we are thankful for the chance to have a lot of these:

cold fresh fruits. Melons. Watermelons. Mangoes. Star apples. Plus a whole lot more of refreshing fruits.

Isn’t God so wise He thought of making these succulent fruits in season when the weather is hot?

Hope everyone will find time to reflect about the goodness of God this Holy Week.

Please see another WS entry here. Thank you.

    I love fresh fruits especially during this season.
