The Big and Small Omens

It's Mango Season again on Maui, and surprise of surprises, one of our many mango trees which hasn't borne fruit in years is loaded down with mangoes. This tree sits in the Southeast corner of our property, and if you know Compass Feng Shui, you would know that the SE is the direction of wealth. So we're very happy to observe the abundance on this one particular tree!

And while taking this photo, a small snail was observed moving towards the Southeast direction and the tree. Now everyone knows-- snails move extremely slow, and yet they get to where they're going eventually. Another omen?

Magnificent Maui Mangoes

I've posted before about our magnificent mango tree and called it the Giving Tree. Yup, it's still giving and giving. We have so many mangoes, and we pass them on to others. Of course, we keep some for ourselves. The best way to eat them after they've ripened to a beautiful yellow gold is cold. I slurp them down all the way to the inner seed, not missing a drop of juicy goodness.

We have an extremely happy and generous mango tree on our property, and every year it gifts us with delicious, sweet mangoes. Now our tree has many mangoes hanging down from it just like this one in the photo, and soon this color will ripen into a lovely peach color.

Do you know the book titled "The Giving Tree"? It's a wonderful book beloved by both children and adults. Here's a link to more information about it.
