Actor Danny DeVito on Donald Trump: “I’m not a fan of the president. What we’re supposed to do is bring people together. We’re not supposed to separate people. We’re supposed to be making the world a better place for each other.”

An 88-year-old Vietnam veteran sat weeping in his wheelchair as a judge prepared to condemn his crumbling home. Fines had piled up for repairs he couldn’t afford. Then—something changed. The judge paused, called a recess, and made a few quiet phone calls. When court resumed, he dismissed every fine and announced that local veterans and contractors would fix the house for free. Finally, the stern judge stepped down and hugged the old soldier. “You served us,” he said. “We don’t forget that.” ❤️

One of my favourite plants in the garden at this time of the year is this smoke bush, Cotinus ‘Grace’. Its dark purple leaves transform into the most extraordinary, glowing colours, in shades of oranges and reds! #DailyBotanicalBeauty #gardening

When the fairies tire of dancing each night, they slip off their tiny shoes and hide them beneath white dead-nettle blooms. But beware, should a centipede find them there, it will steal them away and wear them out, dancing until dawn! 🧚🐛 #FolkloreSunday #wildflowers
