Gumamela/Hibiscus

Two colors of gumamela/hibiscus I spotted at a parking lot near the Manila Ocean Park.  Hibiscus is a pretty common flower here, we usually take it for granted.  I'm glad somebody took time to plant these flowers in the parking lot.

“Maybe the truth is, there's a little bit of loser in all of us.    Being happy isn't having   everything in your life be perfect.   Maybe it's about stringing together all the little things.”  ~ Ann Brachares

It is courage, courage, courage, that raises the blood of life to crimson splendor.  

Live bravely and present a brave front to adversity.

Hibiscus, Gumamela

We ascribe beauty to that which is simple; which has no superfluous parts; which exactly answers its end; which stands related to all things; which is the mean of many extremes.
