About beauty and ageing…

“As my time on earth comes to an end, I ask you to remember my colours that were attractive to so many suitors… I ask you to remember my scent that stopped many a passerby willing them to take a deep breath… I ask you to remember the stories I told of beauty, innocence and a world filled with laughter and happiness… I ask you to acknowledge my legacy that will be reflected in my offspring… I ask you also to think carefully about your own existence and the quality that you bring into the lives of others, for a time will come when you too will prepare to move on…” – Ageing Hibiscus flower in the garden at Residence Beau Soleil, Albion, Mauritius
