Spring Comes to Litopia...

[AgentPete]

Thank you, @Eva Ulian, for the wonderful floral designs we now have on our main page as backgrounds to the various forums here. They look swell!

I’m keen to change our background images quite frequently, certainly with the seasons, so if there are any budding Litopian artists out there, don’t hesitate to send me your designs!

They look lovely! Good job, @Eva Ulian

 

[Hannah Faoileán]

I agree. Lovely! @Eva Ulian

 

[Jonny]

Yes, they've really perked the place up @Eva Ulian. Very seasonal and perfect for our current spell of glorious weather here in the UK.

 

[Barbara]

Beautiful pics @Eva Ulian. Very nice.

 

[Steve C]

Thanks Eva, they look great

 

[Emily]

Eva, they are really gorgeous

 

[Eva Ulian]

Thank you @Emily @Steve C @Barbara @Jonny @Hannah F @KateESal and of course @AgentPete for the laudable comments... It's all going to my head of course.

 

[Emily]

It's all going to my head of course.

I should hope it deservedly does! (We'll give your head two screens at the next Huddle )

These flowers really cheer me up every time I log in @Eva Ulian. It's like turning up to a bit of peacefulness.

That's lovely feedback Barbara. Since they are such useless creatures, I often wonder why flowers were created-

To give bees somewhere to land?

To give bees somewhere to land?

Well yes, admittedly so, but they could well have done the same job if they were simple things and all the same- but no- flowers were made beautifully glorious and so infinitely different, the variety is breathless. Perhaps "someone" thought of us and wanted to delight us-

Flowers fight for the attention of bees and birds so they can pass on their seeds and help in the survival of the species. It's all about survival and nature is good at that. Would be even better if we humans stayed out of things a bit more!

Hum, I wonder if without the help of humans flowers would flourish so well. I remember in the story of "The Little Prince" he took great pains to care and nurture his rose, put her under a glass for protection, gave her water so it wouldn't thirst. Perhaps without mankind the world would still be in a wild big mess as it was during the pre-historic age.

Without mankind, there would certainly be more life forms about, both animal and plant forms. We are different in that we fight nature whereas other lifeforms are nature. Our attempt to dominate is causing all sorts of problems in the world but I do believe we will eventually come to our senses and hopefully, it won't be too late.
