Good morning from this side of the planet
It's 7:30 AM and I am awake since 5 in the morning. Or rather I didn't sleep well in night. I was tossing around in bed... Backache, cramps and on the top an unsettled mind with all happenings of yesterday.
Finally I sat down in bed, switched on my side lamp and started reading to distract myself. I did a bit of mylotting too.
Then left the bed at 6:30. I cooked breakfast and packed it and left at my neighbors door.
Here I am after taking a hot shower. Well that makes me feel a little better
I will have my tea and breakfast in some time.
It's another wet morning. Seems it drizzled in the night. It's still cloudy and gloomy and cool.
I saw this beautiful white hibiscus bloom in my garden there. And that looks so pretty.
i have many other colored blooms in my garden. But today I am seeking for mental peace and white stands for that peace and hope
So beginning this day with new hope 
Hope everyone is doing good in their mylot corner
Stay safe. Stay happy and healthy. God bless you all

@arunima25 We had very bad weather and strong wind, I suppose I was worried about the weather. I had a better sleep the past night.

Guess! Winters are knocking there.
I am sorry Anna about your disturbed sleep. Any specific reason for that?? Hope you could catch some rest later though I know that you don't take afternoon nap.

@LadyDuck Yes that worry might be the cause of the troubled sleep. Hope the weather is good now. And glad you got some good sleep last night.

Now we are back to normal though the pinch is still there. Time heals.
I too like this white color. It's so serene.

@amitkokiladitya Glad you liked them. It's one plant there and doesn't bloom much or in abundance. So when it blooms it gets all attention.

I also don't know why my sleep breaks early no matter how late I make it to bed
anyways that white hibiscus looks great remembered those days when we had one. It's good you kept yourself busy with something later unlike me lying restless on the bed doing nothing

I have a deep sleep. But yesterday I was a bit upset with a series of awful news. I sleep for good 7_8 hours in night. I start my day at 5 on weekdays and at 6:30-7 on weekends.
It's better to do something than tossing on the bed.

@arunima25 Sorry to hear all that. Such news bound to have mental effect. Accident is a bad news and worse still is the havoc this coronavirus is creating world over and socially in our country. This is driving us to depression.

It's some sad news of two young deaths in neighborhood. Also my brother in law hospitalized with corona. I had made a post here yesterday about a series of awful news here. My elder daughter lost one of her friends in apartment a 19 year old in car accident. All these had mentally made us quite upset.
You are right. My garden gives me a lot of solace. I have parijat plant. You are right about that tiny flower.
I am feeling much calmer after some meditation and silent prayer.

I am much calm now. Did some meditation and a silent prayer for all. It's all a part of Almighty's plan.
You are right my garden gives me a lot of peace. I am planning to do some reading, art other than gardening to calm myself. They just help me a lot when I am restless.
This plant does not bloom so frequently. So a bloom today seemed like a message from God.
