Get outside 💚
Looking through the trees at an orange coloured setting sun. The leaves are a vibrant green and the trunks are backlit/dark. Bright orange tiny flowers bunched together. Orange variety of butterfly milkweed. A faded field, with a few stems of black eyed Susan flowers in the foreground Looking down a path through the woods, there is a canopy of bright green leaves overhead.

Lots of flowers and lots of bugs 🦟
Three white flowers. There is a bee (I think it’s a bee) facing downward in the middle flower. Backlit milkweed flowers with a field behind them. A densely wooded area. The sun is behind the trees and is shining through A Blue Indigo Bunting sitting on a branch. Its beak is open.

Is "financial mismanagement" really a problem at so many Ontario school boards? Or is there maybe not enough money to manage coming in from the province? www.theglobeandmail.com/canada/artic...
Ontario takes over four school boards, citing financial concerns
Decision to take control of boards in Toronto, Ottawa stems from concerns over large deficits, fiscal mismanagement, province says

After the rain 🌧️ 💚🌱 🐌 #NaturePhotography
A person walks down a path through the woods. A yellow buttercup facing downwards with rain on it. A bed of lily of the valley leaves on the forest floor, they’re covered with rain drops. A snail making its way down the side of a moss covered tree. Close up of the snail.

It’s been a while since I’ve been outside. Nice to breathe. #GetOutside #NaturePhotography
A path through the grass, there are lush looking trees on the right and purple flowers under the trees. White blooms (multi-flora rose I think), with a dark background. A young deer stands in a newly planted corn field. It’s looking straight at the camera. Purple phlox flowers and yellow buttercups in the woods. A close up of the flowers.

"The Holy Spirit opens borders, first of all, in our hearts. He is the gift that opens our lives to love. His presence breaks down our hardness of heart, our narrowness of mind, our selfishness, the fears that enchain us and the narcissism that makes us think only of ourselves (6-8-25)." #PopeLeoXIV

Pope Leo: “Ten years ago, Pope Francis signed the Encyclical Letter Laudato Si’, devoted to care for our common home. It has had an extraordinary impact, inspiring countless initiatives and teaching everyone to listen to the twofold cry of the Earth and of the poor.”

Secularism isn’t what’s driving people away from Christianity.

What’s driving people away from Christianity are those who claim to follow Jesus, but completely ignore his teachings and use his name instead to amass wealth and political power.

I love this Pope already but I wonder if he really said it. I checked snopes.com but couldn't find the quote on there. My guess is these pope quotes are coming out faster than they can be verified.
So yes, please share your source.
