The Flowers of San Carlos Seminary

San Carlos Seminary, Guadalupe Viejo, Makati City, Philippines...


FLOWERS-- SILENT WITNESSES TO GOD'S GLORY




These flowers are the silent witnesses...




to God's glory revealed in each and every morning.




They greet us, the seminarians, with their blooms each day...




and it seems that wherever we go, they silently follow.



 

In a glance, it seems that they look the same, but they are not...




they become a kaleidoscope of colors that praises God.




In the silence of their beings they, too, appreciate us...




they seem to look at us




they seem to follow our every footsteps




they seem to hear the beats of our praying hearts




and even sympathize in the loneliness of our hearts.





Yes, flowers are not forever




that's why everyday, they give themselves to us




even, most of the time, they are left unappreciated by us...




...still, they remain to be beautiful




and serve their humble purpose to the fullest




...in the appreciative gaze of our loving God.
