In a picturesque meadow where the laughter of village children fills the air, Little Gypsy Dandelion, a stunning golden dandelion, stands in quiet anticipation.

Never underestimate the arrival of the unexpected. What we consider to be a ‘hardship’ in life may only be God’s gentle hand guiding us on the road of life. Each adversity in life can bring us closer to God, even though we don’t understand why such incidents have to happen. Incidents when you feel lost, without hope, and unloved can be the times you grow closer to God. It is then that you can learn to rely on God more. It is during these times that you can be reassured of the presence of God in your life
