Roses are red, violets are blue: Whispers of colours, whispers of hues 🏵🌹

Just visited the State Rose Garden in Werribee again today, and it’s absolutely beautiful! Every corner is filled with roses in every colour you can imagine, pink, red, yellow, white, even some gorgeous orange and lavender blooms.
The whole garden smells incredible and it’s such a peaceful spot for a wander or a few photos. If you love flowers or just need a little dose of sunshine and colour, definitely make a trip soon, they’re in full bloom and looking their best this spring! 🧡🌸

One thing I like about spring is getting to enjoy fresh flowers straight from my garden.🌹✨

The variety of roses and golden showers fill the air with vibrant colours and sweet, fragrant vibes. Nothing like a bit of nature to brighten me up after work!🏵🌿

A Moment to Breathe ⛰️

After a busy week, I chased the calmness, and this mountain view feels like a breather for the soul. 🌿

The stillness, the air, the view, everything reminding me to slow down and just be. 🍃

Grateful for the quiet beauty that reminds me why I love calling Australia, my home away from home. 🏠🇦🇺

A Gentle Reminder About Mental Health 💔

I was deeply saddened by the news of a young 19-year-old who took her own life because of depression and mental health struggles. It’s a painful reminder that mental health is just as important as physical health.

Depression is not a joke, and I know this from personal experience. Before I taught in the USA, I was a mentor for my colleagues in our classroom management program back in the Philippines. Despite my decades of teaching experience, nothing could truly prepare me for what it’s like to teach in the US classroom setting, especially during that first year.

I heard stories from fellow J1 and H1B teachers, and I can tell you, believe them! No words could ever fully describe how difficult it was. I lost considerable weight, suffered from daily headaches, and cried every morning, not wanting to go to work. These were the silent faces of depression that I rarely talked about. Behind a strong facade and renewed contract were thoughts and voices telling me I wasn’t good enough, that I had failed.

But through it all, I held onto my faith. My God is far greater than the lies in my head. I was blessed to have my immediate family around me during those dark days.

I can’t help but think about our dear OFWs who are alone, those who don’t have a support system and fight their silent battles far from home. So please, in this world where you can be anything-- BE KIND.
You never know what someone is going through. A little kindness can go a long way. 💛

From the 🇺🇸 to 🇦🇺: God’s Plan Always Wins✨

Sometimes what feels like a delay is really God’s redirection. I once thought my teaching journey would stay in the USA but God had a better plan, one that led me here to Australia.

If you’re in a season of waiting, trust that He’s working behind the scenes.🙌

Who knows? God might be redirecting you too to something far greater than you imagined. 💫
