Hello dear friends of HIVE, I wish you well.

Hola queridos amigos de HIVE, deseo se encuentren bien.

This week has been a bit melancholy, remembering my mother (R.I.P.), April 30 marks two (2) years that she is not physically with us.

Esta semana ha sido un poco melancólica, recordando a mi madre (Q.E.P.D), el 30 de abril se cumplen dos (2) años que no está físicamente con nosotros.

She loved flowers, and one way to remember her with love and gratitude, is to walk through the garden and surrounding areas of my home, enjoying the festival of colors that flowers offer us, an activity that encouraged her, because she had a special connection with plants.

Ella amaba las flores, y una forma de recordarla con amor y gratitud, es recorrer el jardín y zonas aledañas de mi hogar, disfrutando del festival de colores que nos ofrecen las flores, actividad que la animaba, pues tenía una conexión especial con las plantas.

I invite you to join me on this walk, I hope you like it!.

Los invito acompañarme en este paseo , espero les guste!

### Walking and enjoying

The first flower that captured my attention is the distinguished Bird of Paradise (Strelitzia reginae, which proudly displays its exotic beauty.

La primera flor que atrae mi atención es la distinguida Ave del Paraíso (Strelitzia reginae), que exhibe orgullosa su exótica belleza.

The intense green of its leaves contrasts and stands out with the colors of its flowers, whose shape justifies its name.

El verde intenso de sus hojas contrasta y resalta con los colores de sus flores, cuya forma justifican su nombre.

And the show continues with more intense pink and scarlet tones with three precious flowers: Crown of Christ (Euphorbia mili ); Isoras, Maltese Cross a or Coralillo (Ixora coccinea ) and Red Ginger or Alpinia (Alpinia purpurata ), a splendor of color and joy that encourages me to smile and look at the sky with gratitude.

I end my walk, remembering a phrase that my mother used to say, "Nature must be observed, enjoyed and cared for", is an example of life that continues to guide the family.

Culmino mi paseo, recordando una frase que mi madre solía decir, “A la naturaleza hay que observarla, disfrutarla y cuidarla“, es un ejemplo de vida que continua guiando a la familia.
