Just do what you did to learn the subjunctive. Understanding por and para is pure practice. There are many quizzes on line that you can try and challenge yourself to figure out why your answer is incorrect if you get any wrong.

It seems permanent to me

Subjunctive is used sometimes in English - "If I were to read the sentence......,"
The way I look at "permanent" is that is a condition that has more or less always existed - "las flores son rojas". They were red yesterday, too.
"Las flores estan muertas" - that's their state today. It's not an inate condition.
I have not forgotten about your request. I am a bit busy today but I will post the links tonight.
Thanks!

Africaida,
What is your grade level in Spanish using the European grade levels? Do you know? For ex, A1/ A2, B1/ B2, C1/ C2
I am trying to find you helpful links. Some I had are now gone.
Me avisas por favor.
Gracias.
I did a prueba online a while ago from the Instituto Cervantes and was evaluated at C1.
Gracias de antemano !

This is a good website for learning Spanish. I like their word of day with audio. It is opportunity to learn at least one word everyday.

@Africaida,
I just did the quiz I referenced in my post above. I recommend it because after each answer there is an explanation why the answer is correct. It is good practice.

I just went on there to work on the preterit. They really helped and there is more detail if you want. I'm going to use them more.
I like to look at those types of websites in order to give my opinion if asked. I recommend Spanish Dict to complement beginner level Spanish but on its own there is not enough info. It scratches the surface with good examples on essential grammar topics for beginners.
Here is a teacher’s blog that gives an explanation of Ser and Estar.
I really like the explanation and examples.

To Ser or to Estar? The two Spanish verbs that both mean “to be”
For many English speakers, learning all the conjugations of Spanish can be difficult enough. Once you get into choosing between the two versions of “to be”, you feel like you could almost give up. But don’t despair!
