WW: Summer is On

Already at the 3rd week of June and summer is on!
NYC is getting warmer and warmer these days.
After experiencing 12 degrees C last week, this week we have a blasting sun at 34 degrees C, almost 3 time hotter than last week!

As we continue to observe the Holy Month of Ramadhan, we have quite some time to spare before we can have ifthar and enjoy food and drinks again at 8.30 PM.

We have been visiting the Factory Outlet at Woodbury, enjoying some early sales for Father's day. 

Then I took the time to declutter my beauty products at home.

Apparently, I am a beauty junkie >_<

And finally, I took some time during my break to smell the rosees.
As I have posted before, the UN Rose Garden is one of my favorite spots to unwind amidst the never-ending meetings and negotiations at the UN.

What do you think, it's wonderful, isn't it?

Happy summer, everyone

Join us in (almost) Wordless Wednesday  and enjoy fabulous links!

Hanya Pada-Mu Rabb

Ramadhan has entered its 3rd week

Hopefully those who observe it will continue to have Allah's blessings and forgiveness.

Majestic sky I witnessed on my way home to Astoria, right before ifthar or breaking the fast.

Join us on Skywatch Friday and get lost in magnificent skies from different corners of the world

Happy World Oceans Day

Happy World Oceans Day!

Have we done enough 
to protect our beautiful ocean?

I was so lucky I got a chance to join the UN Ocean Conference, as part of the UN support to the full implementation of Goal 14 of the Sustainable Development Agenda or Agenda 2030, conserve and sustainably use the oceans, seas and marine resources for sustainable development.

Leonardo Di Caprio, the UN Messanger of Peace

We had many public figures, scientists, world-know photographers, CEOs, local communities and youth joining the event, including Leonardo di Caprio, the UN Messenger of Peace, Diego Luna, Sir Richard Branson, and 3 great Indonesians speaking at the UN.
Besides, this high level event was also packed with Head of States and Governments and well as ministers related to the preservation of oceans and environment.

Here's some messages given by Leonardo, regarding the challenges we all face now .

The ocean is indeed our home, our future!

And we have no better choice but to keep and preserve the oceans we love, the oceans in which our children will be the next stewards.

For me personally, the oceans will always be my refuge, offering the unconditional peace and boundless love where I am endlessly grateful for ever single thing our Creator bestowed upon me.

Down there, there's a beyond-words beauty we all have to protect. 

To preserve. 
To love!

But our oceans have been heavily polluted by our greed, our selfish actions, our constant ignorance.

Marine debris, acidification, over fishing, pollution, raising sea level are only a tiny portion of the horrible consequences of what we have done to the oceans.
Us!
Human.

This has to stop!

And we can and we have do that together.

Now!

Please, ask ourself what we can do to help protecting our oceans, our environment.
A simple gesture of reducing plastic use, stop littering our ocean, to raising awareness about the need to preserve our planet will certainly help.

Happy World Oceans Day!
